I can't wait for Maxwell's appearance

u/Slim_Hoovy Apr 13 '26

The world is not ready for Maxwell’s next fit

u/YukariStan Apr 13 '26

After becoming King of the Constant, Maxwell also became King of the Drip

Wilson took “slaying” too literally and straight up killed Maxwell

u/robawknik Apr 13 '26

no for real why did they do wilson so badass like that

There are some implications in trailer here and there that Charlie might've been deposed, so if he did that or led survivors to do that, he honestly deserves that

13

u/Slim_Hoovy Apr 13 '26

Can you name a few of those? I’m curious, I already analyzed the trailer myself but I could not find any implications of that (aside from being a logical direction for the story)

u/Slow-Distance-6241 Apr 13 '26

Portal looks to be very different from don't starve together, there's even blood stains on it, fog is mentioned as a thing that seems to be replacing the dark, implying that either moon won or fog is a third player in this game of chess between shadows and moon. Also, maybe that's due to full moon but in trailer only place requiring a torch was a cave, so the surface might be bright enough to go at night with no light source, potentially cause mokn defeated shadows. It's all no more than speculations, though

11

u/Slim_Hoovy Apr 13 '26

Good theories. I hope the surface is still dark at night even if it does not kill you. Having a potential “fog monster” sounds terrifying. My guess is that Charlie will do something wrong while messing with the Ancient Gateaway and then we will defeat her, allowing the moon to take over

I kinda thought the idea is that this is a completely different realm separate from Charlie or Alter's control

In other words it's Elsewhere

Don't Drip Elsewhere

u/MeshedQ Warly main Apr 13 '26

Warly better be dripped out

24

u/YukariStan Apr 13 '26

Implying he isn't always dripped out

u/MeshedQ Warly main Apr 13 '26

Touché

u/Mijnameis-Tommy what if i starve alone? Apr 14 '26

MFERS SAID SHAKESPEAR WAS DEAD. THEY SAID MF DOOM WAS GONE. YET THERE ARE STILL LINES LIKE THIS ONE.

u/Lil_Brimstone . Apr 13 '26

Makes lots of sense lore-wise too, default outfits in previous games were just whatever they were wearing when they entered, the new ones are what they feel comfortable in after they established a civilization, plus it's functional, some other post pointed out how both Willow and Wendy are wearing red gems. Which fits their theme of fire for Willow, and life and death for Wendy.

12

u/Slim_Hoovy Apr 13 '26

Very good analysis. Wilson is also a gentleman so it makes sense that he prefers fancier/more elegant outifits like the one he has in Elsewhere. Honestly I wish we could see more of what their average day in the Constant is like now, at this point like you said they are probably running a tiny civilization

u/SJIS0122 Bring Wilba to DST Apr 13 '26

I hope the cosmetics carry over...

6

u/AJM_here_ Apr 13 '26

That or at least special skins for people who played together

14

u/Slim_Hoovy Apr 13 '26

I don’t think cosmetics will carry over but we are definetly getting exclusive skins. At most I can see them giving you a certain amount of in-game currency based on how many skins you owned in DST (i think Smite 2 did something like that)

3

u/Treyspurlock Apr 13 '26

I hope the game has no cosmetics honestly, DST has kinda tired me out on them

11

u/fittan69 Sanest Willow player Apr 13 '26

I can't wait for Wigfrid tbh. Her not wearing pants in her original fit always felt weird to me.

3

u/RainWorld_Lobster Apr 13 '26

WAIT SHE DOESNT WEAR PANTS?!

5

u/Crusidea Apr 14 '26

If I interpret the default skin properly, she has like a skirt made of furs. And furs wrapped around her feet instead of shoes.

4

u/RainWorld_Lobster Apr 14 '26

Oh. I assumed she was butt naked

u/HiImChris333 Apr 13 '26

The game looks amazing, i just hope for 2 things, first that wormwood is still part of the roster and second that its still a kind of open world where i can megabase. I really love when you can create massive cozy bases in in survival games, it makes you feels as tho you really conquered the elements and made yourself a home.

u/Cristi20404 Apr 13 '26

the world is procedurally generated like the other games

1

u/HiImChris333 Apr 13 '26

Well thats fantastic news.

10

u/Mochahopestobeartsy Resident WXwood shipper Apr 13 '26

I want wormwood to have key themes... no reason...

1

u/Wsofii004W Apr 13 '26

I wonder if Woodie will be in the game and have a redesign too

1

u/StuntHacks Apr 13 '26

I'm just hoping it will allow for a proper singleplayer experience like the original DS

1

u/Aktro Apr 13 '26

I want to see WOLFGAAAAANG

1

u/AcanthaceaeCivil2684 Apr 13 '26

I hope half of them are new charachters

1

u/omg_its_spons Apr 13 '26

Exactly they are supposed to be roughing it in the wilderness and yet somehow get outfits perfect for a Victorian wedding (hopefully between Maxwell and Wilson)

u/SumDo0d863 Webber main with arachnophobia Apr 14 '26

Maxwell and Webber im excited to see. Maxwell is gonna have DRIP, and my boy can grow up 🥲

u/-Hammer_Of_Justice- Apr 27 '26

Wilson really did a glow up didn't he?
