Ways to say goodbye

[June]

So here it is folks, TLD will get it´s long awaited final update.

When i heard that the old saves would render useless at the end of may (or beginning of June - well, better not make a fixed date here, lol) when the final sandbox update hits, I was kindof sad, because i´ve grown fond of my Interloper-Astrid who made it to day 163. Just now I killed my third bear and could live on forever (well you never know on Interloper). There´s just one question remaining: the save will get useless, so I have to find a good end of the sandbox. Keeping it is pretty useless. Jumping off the Ravine seems also not the right thing to do. I need a challenge! A hard challenge I may not survive. Something to get the good old TLD beat going. I have the feeling I´ve beaten Interloper´s grim intentions to killing me quickly (or at least got myself a convinient place and living with abundant ressources and my loyal magnifying glass). So what could my Astrid do to end in a glorious dramatic dark fashion that would be fitting? And how will you end your sandoxes? ;P

I'm going to parkour down the side of Timberwolf Mountain for my remaining long term save.   If I survive that then surfing off the dam.  (I've always wondered if you could climb down the dam like a steep rockface).

There's always sneaking up on a bear on a cold day.  Who know's? Maybe they just want to cuddle.

Dig up some of @Scyzara's old posts with user proposed challenges and times to beat

It has been revealed to me that the proper term is glacade not parkour.

Scale to the top of Timberwolf Mountain lightly dressed on a clear day and stay out to watch a final sunset?

It's a dark and dramatic farewell that fits the mood of the game, but maybe lacking in glory.

Good suggestion. Right now I think I´ll make as much arrows as I can from my resources left and travel to TWM shooting every wolf I can  ;P

Leap from any high surface and attempt a 360 Quickscope

That's pretty much the first 7 days of Interloper for me

What I did -- am doing -- for my 400+ day Voyageur sandbox:

Sync'd my save yesterday with my 2010 gaming laptop (the one I don't use anymore) and unplugged it from the Internet.

I'm playing my "Legacy" sandbox on that and playing my new game on the PC I use all the time

Also my strategy until I need internet again on my gaming PC

Besides, not much time for gaming anyways when I'm stuck writing on my laptop all the time!

Options are not only nice, for me they are a requirement!

 

TBH though the new iconography & immersive, non-numerical ui takes getting used to, I am really enjoying it!

This is what I finally had the courage to do. (And in my 750+ day voyager game which dated back to when there were only two regions.)

You can't even see all the arrows in the screenshot because he's laying on some. I was mauled twice in the process, but used stims and bandages to keep going.

Good thing you weren't going after a rabbit @r0gershrubber

You know, a killer rabbit would be a great easter egg.
