It’s fun seeing all the builds people do, but I’m more interested right now in what you feel your greatest accomplishment is in this game. Maybe it’s not the most technically amazing moment. My favorite is just a testament to my own stubbornness.
Mine is trying to reach the light root beneath the dueling peaks. I started at the bottom, all out of large blooms. I ran completely out of blooms halfway up. Scaled that puppy by hand in near darkness and barely knowing where my target was. Could I have used a hot air balloon… Maybe. Did I do things the hard way on accident… sure. But I would not be defeated by using technology or following the easy route.
I once fucked up one of those shrines in the sky and dropped the crystal. I was still early in the game and didn’t realize I could just use the rewind power (I have no idea how it’s called in Englisg), and I jumped.
I discovered to my surprise that the game actually keeps those crystals loaded for a while and so I found it on the ground, glued it to four fans, put a cloche on top of it and flew my new crystal sky-bike back to the island.
I wiped out all of my cores to not drain the batteries, but it was worth it (even more since I can now use the autobuild whenever I have to move those crystals around)
I had a similar story. I was spinning the stone on a remote platform, and didn’t see it had fallen to an island below. Spent a long time driving stakes into the walls to try to get it back up. Now that I have the hot air balloon autobuild, it would have been a lot easier.
Pro tip, every so often go back to Lookout Landing to see if there’s anything new there!
I did it a couple of times, but it has been a while, thanks for reminding me!
On a sidenote, damn I haven’t used the hot air balloon in a long time, that would have solved a lot of situations in the last few hours!
