Assaulting Settlements | Purple People Eaters | 500% | TWO!!! Story Tellers | 23 | Rimworld

RIMWORLD 500% - Losing is Fun - Randy Random The Gravship Start Commitment Mode A Twitch VOD Challenge Series This is a full playthrough that was streamed on twitch in it's entirety. The Challenge: Everyone calls me a masochist, and I'm starting to believe them.. We're using a mod to turn on BOTH!!! Cassandra and Randy at the same time. It'll be a naked brutality start modified to be tribal and we'll be using a custom xenotype to help us overcome the challenge of playing against two story tellers at once. Of course since we're making custom xenotype we'll, of course, make them our preferred aesthetic: Purple Skin, Red Eyes, Cat Ears and standard bodies (so we can see the mood bar behind them on the top of the screen). We'll also be implementing some quality of life mods for the first time in a very long time. It's going to fun, it's going to be crazy, and I have no idea where it's going to go. What is 500% Losing is Fun? Losing is Fun is the hardest difficulty setting that you can select without customizing the settings. On this difficulty the threat scale is at 220% and there are debuffs to growing, immunity, and other aspects of gameplay. For 500% we go into the customize menu, set it to the Losing is Fun settings in the pull down menu and then turn up the slider for threat scaling to 500%. This is commonly done for challenge playthroughs and is generally the settings someone will be referring to if they say they are doing a 500% run. Who is Randy? For those new to the Rimworld experience, you may not know that when you start a game you get a choice of story teller in addition to setting the difficulty and save style. The story teller determines how events will unfold in your playthrough. Randy is the random event story teller. He can be very very punishing because he has a fraction of the cooldown between major bad events as the others, but since it is all random there can also be very quiet times during the playthrough where not much is triggering at all. All of which is determined by the RNG that guides Randy's story telling. Who is Cassandra? Cassandra classic is one of the three story tellers you select when creating a new play through. She has traditional style scaling, and her threats are spaced in a reasonably steady and predictable way. Don't let that fool you. Where Randy may decide to get sleepy now and again to give you big time to make progress, Cass will not let up. Learn her schedule, and make sure you stay on top of wealth management. Commitment Mode: Another setting to select when starting a new game is whether or not to play on commitment mode. On commitment mode there is no saving other than auto-save (in case of crashes, and such). The only time the game gives you an option to save manually is when you exit. You cannot reload and try again in this mode. When someone dies they are dead. When your favorite couple breaks up they break up. Everything that happens is permanent and there are no take backsies.
