I find myself randomly coming back to watch this series even almost 4 years later. It's so iconic

"You need recreation variety, playing the same game over and over will drive your pawns crazy" And here i am with 1200h in rimworld

I love this damn game, it's another one that I'm not allowed to play though, or else I'll lose all my time. Stoked to watch a play through! Best story I have from this game: I had a pyromaniac named Simmons. He was a serious problem, but he was so damn useful that I couldn't really justify getting rid of him. Basically whenever he went on a rampage I just had my warden go beat the shit out of him until he fell down. It was annoying as all hell, I had a couple times where he nearly burned down the entire harvest or the prison (letting any prisoners escape). I had to replace a couple bedrooms in his time as well. My warden (Brian) started at like 2 melee and by the time Simmons left us he had a melee skill of roughly 14 just from keeping Simmons from burning the base down. Fast forward a few game years, and I had a psychic ship land inside my base. I had all of my colonists gather outside, and began attacking it. 2 centipedes and like ~4 Scythers (pre 1.0, before they were split into Scythers and Lancers) pour out. The battle was really bad, most of my colonists sustained horrible wounds. After cleaning up I was able to get them all to sick beds except for Simmons. One of the centipedes had a flame thrower launcher thing, and hit Simmons dead on. By the time I killed all the mechanoids the fire had spread too far for us to reach him, and he burned to death. We didn't even have a corpse to bury. He died as he lived, on fire.

"And we're back... Rimworld on Oassis... " :D

Addiction at 52 hours... Me, with 2.1K hours I could play this game for my entire life.

If you want to keep animals out of specific areas, you're mostly on the right track with creating a zone, but another way is to take a blank zone and press the 'invert' button, which adds the entire map, and then REMOVE just the areas you don't want animals to go into, but allows them to go everywhere else in the map.

Rimworld is really really fun. Glad you are playing it :) Early congrats on 10k subs. Your channel is growing fast now!

Super excited to see you playing this game mate :D

56 hours into the game and you are teaching me about radius for food gathering... fun.

In the details of a task, the "Pause when satisfied" limit is to set production again when it hits said limit. For example, your cook is going to run back to the kitchen as soon as someone takes a meal. Set it to something lower to have your cook back in the kitchen only when you have X amount. And good luck with *RANDY* ;)

Revisiting this classic series. Can't believe I'm picking up missed tricks. 1000 hrs of gameplay and it's never occurred to me to have my cleaners be the pawns that work in the house, ie the cooks and crafters.

The ONI 100k video brought me here...I apparently watched it four years ago but I think I have to go through the playlist again!

Thank you for introducing me to Rimworld. I'd only heard of the game before but knew not about it. It seems really interesting and wonderfully in-depth. I'm looking forward to this series!

Happy to see you playing Rimworld, it's just about my favorite game of all time. e: faction color on the map doesn't mean anything at all except Pirate factions (red skull) are always hostile, every other faction is fair game; nearer towns will gradually become more hostile to you, but you can even manage that by rescuing their members if they get downed on your map, or giving them gifts of money etc

A couple comments: 1. You need to set medicine to be allowed in your internal stockpile, you have herbal medicine outside deteriorating. 2. The chance for a hunted animal to fight back increases the closer the hunter is to the hunter, didn't know if you knew that. 3. Might want to start planting crops soon... 4. Researching too, although you probably already plan to do that next vid. 5. Great bows, which you can research, are probably the best ranged weapons you'll have access to for quite a while, apparently, looking online, very effective compared to some of the lower tier firearms.

Nooo, I've only just got ONI out of my system and now you remind me I haven't played Rimworld in a while, mere amateur here with only 403 hours "invested"

Great to see you playing Rimworld Francis! You're doing a great job explaining the basic mechanics. I didn't see anyone mention this but to make sure you're aware, tribal start also decreases overall research speed for the whole playthrough. I've never done a nomadic playthrough so I'm very interested in how your style looks. Keep up the great work!

It's like you are reading my mind. I just discovered this game and was thinking of suggesting it to you as I really enjoy your gameplay style! Thank you for amazing content :)

It's time to rewatch everything

Thank you for the help. I want to love playing the game as much as I love watching you play it

Loving your play style so far. Haven’t seen the nomad style played before. Started a game just to play along with you. Looking forward to the next vid!

I have 100s of hours in rimworld and theres so much here ive learned. Thanks so much

Was excited when I first saw you started a Rimworld series. Not Factorio but still one of my favorite games. :) Was waiting for a few more episodes to get uploaded before I started watching as I'm a serial binger. Here goes! Only other Rimworld series I've been able to watch all the way through was Pete Complete's ice shelf series.

Great that you started tutorials on Rimworld. I was always interested in the game but it looks like it has a big entry difficulty, kinda like that other game that we all love, so maybe after a few of your videos I will finally try Rimworld.

So glad to see you playing through this. Great game from my favorite Irishman.

Hey! Rimworld is a good choice! If you press shift when giving an order, they will complete the current task and after that they do what you ordered.

I was genuinely excited at your announcement that you were going to upload some Rimworld. It's such an excellent game, easily top 10 best games ever created, and I look forward to seeing how you work out all the nuts and bolts. I've posted 70+ episodes and counting of merciless randy and the "FUN" never stops, the nomadic style is extra awesome, it prevents late game stagnation. One of the mechanics that you might not know about yet is that your guys track dirt onto your floors and buildings from outside, so that's why your kitchen is going to be permanently dirty in its current incarnation. Better to place your kitchen where no-one but your cook is going to walk in and dirty up the place. To reduce dirt-tracking it also helps to make some floor tiles outside your doors, like making an entry porch for your colonists to wipe their feet before going in. Looking forward to all the terrible things that will happen!

seeing the thumbnail i thought this was a video to help with my rimworld addiction, loved it anyway

I was checking your old videos, and hearing you made a video at 52 hours in rimworld (00:05) knowing that this series has 74 episodes is insane. I can't imagine how many hours you have in the game now.

6:04 a Stargate reference. Man of culture.

My english is really rusty but sinserly you are the best teacher I never have.

Hey Francis, i have no idea how to reach you, but can i just say thank you? Your videos realy helps me with more than just entertainment. I am always looking forward for your next video. Thank you. Thank you so much.

Great game and thanks for doing this. I've played for a while and you taught me some stuff I didn't know about. I'd love to see you do some more tutorials with this.

Hard to believe that this series went on for 7 months! All I have to say is this: WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!! O.O' BTW, I only started watching when I 1st subscribed to you, Francis, which coincidentally was about 60% finished. I do wonder if I should go back and watch what I missed though (because it's either that, or practice playing RimWorld on my own, now that I have the game for myself). Hmm...

really looking forward to your gameplay of this other amazing colony survival game

Love that MacGyver is good at crafting!

i also have found the love for rim world thank you for the tips

holy crap i stumbled apon FJ's first rimworld vid XD this gona be great

I've been trying to watch Rim world playthroughs for the longest but every time they were boring to me. This is the first time I was able to be entertained by a video of this game. Thanks

randy random savage? man this will be FUN

Dude tf you are TOO pro in this thank you sm rlly helpfull always died at beginning

You got nightstand and dresser that raise bedroom beauty, plus you can always put pot there and plant some flowers in it, its nice decoration bonus too.

Only 52 hrs. of play and you are tutoriallin' like a pro. Like many others in the comment section, this is a game I've played enough to know that I'm not allowed to play it anymore... time sink. cheers for the vid Francis.

Nice! Great to see you playing some RimWorld! ONI is out of my system and RimWorld has sucked me into the bottomless pit that is the game.

I've owned this game for a long time but felt it needed to develop a bit more. I've come back to it recently and finding it is truly a genius game.

I typically use 2 as the default Highest priority for everything past Basic/Warden

Nice! I think you will find that a lot of your ONI viewers are also avid Rimworld fans. I have been playing it longer than ONI and always come back to it. It is very addictive, because there are so many ways to play it. I am currently doing a one pawn, naked, tribal playthrough. The first meal was a handful of berries from the edge of a tundra map, the second a bunny melee killed with a log. Unfortunately, no Megasloth dinner for my pawn. Btw you may want to use the heavy fur of the Megasloth for apparel as it's qualities (insulation /protection) are excellent and kind of wasted in a bedroll.

You can chop juvenile trees with the cut plant command, you just don't get wood out of them

Man I haven’t played this game for a while once you start playing you can stop

thanks for playing this game i would recommend a cannibal colony

The start that I love the most: Tribal Naked Brutality (custom edit of Naked Brutality) and then start on Ice Sheet. You pretty much HAVE to be a cannibal. Then you find a geyser for heat, and wait to be attacked by your future food.

love it!

This is the ONLY game where I have more 'played time' (1335h) than ONI (1264h). Good vid!

as always thanks for the video :)

love this especially with new dlc coming out and the ideology and royalty dlcs with over a 100 mods lol

RIMWORLD! yaaaas Francis

With 1,000 hours clocked, I’ve only just become aware of the right click and allow all option in the orders menu 🤯

10K soon so soon

I doubt anyone will see this as it's so long ago but I wanted to say that Ive got over 1000 hours in Rimworld and I never knew you could right click the allow tool to allow all items The time I've wasted dragging it around the map at the highest camera altitude to grab all the tiny bits of steel and MREs lying around is ridiculous

Thanks man!

You can set a zone in which the animals you have can't enter, so you can have them wandering around getting their food from the map and not get your rooms dirty.

Not sure if I misunderstood you, but you do know you can randomize your pawns? You don't have to pick 5 out of those 8 without randoming a bit (top-right-button). Not sure if that's a rule you like to play by, but just so that you know there's the option of randoming just like you can in ONI. :D This game, like ONI is pure crack once you start, looking forward to seeing your approach to this game, and if you ever start to think it's getting stale the modding is quite extensive and great for this game. GL HF! :)

With 4 levels of priority I would never set anything to 1 unless I wanted it done right now, basically so I don't have to right+shift click the orders.

you can assign your good cooker to cooking, but set your cooking bills to 3xnumber of colonists. that way they'll quit cooking when you have enough food.

Damn private rooms on day one! Mine slept in the mud 😭👍

Watching this after the baby base and, even on that one, food poisoning is less harsh in ONI

Final thing, you should get some plants growing asap. Get some rice growing as it grows quickest (use it to make pemmican), have some corn as well as it produces a ton but takes longer. Also should consider healroot (not as important since it grows wild), cotton (can make clothing with it to both replace tattered clothes and for selling), and smokeweed (for moral boost and for selling).

So, basically you sold me this game :D

Time for another re-watch xd

Dont put the storage area right infront of the doors, it takes longer to walk over rocks or wood than it does flat ground

Only 52 hours? Man, this game can become an even larger timesink than ONI :D

52 hours?!? You wee baby at the game. In my current zombieland mod playthrough, my pawns we all killed by a herd of while elephants. I reloaded and changed my hunting preferences only to be killed by rhinos. Next time I'll make it to day 30 for sure! XD

I've been ignoring this game knowing I'd be addicted. I successfully kicked my DF habit I don't need another one.

Only factions you can't trade with are the pirates. Can trade with everyone else if you grind rep. Either release their members after raids or send them gifts. Transport pods are great for this. 394 hours played in Rimworld lol. Game is amazing and the range of mods make it even better.

About the game of Ur: you probably saw the video from Tom Scott, who did a lovely game of it with a gentleman from the British National Museum.

Mwahahaha! I've been so annoyed at how good you are at ONI, and now you have entered my realm of expertise! I must judge!... No, but seriously, this is a great game.

Rimworld: This game is incredibly complicated Dwarf Fortress: Hold my Plump Helmet wine.

NOVEMBER 5TH 2019. 52 HOURS OF RIMWORLD PLAYED. PROBABLY UP TO 54 OR 55 BY NOW.

here's two super great QOL mods that don't change vanilla balance, that it doesn't look like you're using: Numbers, a very comprehensive reporting mod that lets you do things like find unrotted animal corpses anywhere on the map, or see a count of how many invaders, etc: steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1414302321 Allow Tool, a very large expansion of the UI and controls that lets you do things like designate a vein of ore to be mined out, or mass select and harvest specific varieties of wild plant, or priority haul (different job from normal hauling) steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=761421485

Seed = Not ONI? But where will you get all the hatches to feed the dupes?

been meaning to get this game for a while... looks like it could be a nice break from oxygen not included :P

Get ready for extreme couch gaming xD Edit: I am impressed you didn't call pawns "dupes" jaja Edit2: If you don't have a good cook, your pawns will be getting food poisoning quite often. You can check the food poisoning chance on the info of each pawn. Edit3: I remember Tynan removed the bump in butchering efficiency with skill. That means, no matter the skill of the pawn, the results from butcher will be the same. If you want to free your cook from butchering, you can install a mod to separate those jobs, or you can do it the easy way and make a bill restricted by skill level of cooking.

i have spent quite a bit of time on this game since when i watched this video two month ago. and by a bit of time, i meant an awful lot of time. believe me or not, im going to start another colony tonight. if you are new and considering buying this game or not, take my words seriously. there are consquences.

actually you should leave it as dirt floor because -1 cleanliness won't get you food poisoning and it won't get dirty

MacGyver and McKay are a couple? That's an interesting ship..

"3 days into our first year" 13th of aprimay.... wasted your whole spring not planting any crops. RIP ( i do see that the first day of game was the 11th of aprimay... still... get on those crops!)

Building butching room so people walk past it on their way wherever isn't great since it will be hideous.

I love it, youl love it, I love you. I got almost 340 hours

I'm waiting for some war crimes in the next episodes :)

Is there ever a good time for cannibalism? It would seem that if you are on such hard times that you don't even have regular food, the massive debuffs from butchering and eating people would only make things worse.

You should keep your ascetic's room as awful, they prefer it that way.

Can you upload your ModConfig xml please :)

Hope this helpful

combat extended for ammo

Commitment mode! >:D

Tried to see if other caught on. Few of your tips were close but not accurate. Bed Rest for example under priorities isn’t for if they are tired. It is for when they are bleeding to death or sick. They will go to a medical bed and heal over cleaning or plant cut orders.

me·lee /ˈmāˌlā,māˈlā/

hold shift to queue orders!!

until the relationship breaks down and horrible things happen.

oh man, cassandra is way harder than randy. that's probably just me though.
