I'm so happy to see ONI back on the channel! This game is how I found you on KZfaq, and the great playthroughs of this and other games have made me stay. Keep up the great work!

23:13 "But that is a problem that future Francis can deal with" Serves him right, he hasn't done anything yet.

I kinda wish the bedroom and Great Hall bonuses were switched. Giving each dupe a fancy personal bedroom should be much, much more impactful (and is more material and space intensive) than a singular big hall (which, let's face it, is a regular messhall with an unused watercooler and just one plant). In particular, i'd wish to see a bit more room flavor, like a proper science room, factory room, power room etc.

My favorite "cheese" for these. If none of the care packages are useful, take a dupe and restrict their food options to none. They are printed with some calories and can do useful things for at least one cycle before starving. Make sure they build their own grave to limit stress effect.

I love how back when FJ played a lot of OXY, he called his pawns in Rimworld dupes. Now he calls his Dupes, Pawns.

So happy to see ONI from you again. Just one quick thing: you mentioned needing a mechatronics engineer to bring algae from the other planet. Since there are already conveyor loaders set up over there, you actually only need a dupe with Field Research in order to activate the material transmitters. I think you’ve chosen to go with electrolyzers instead, but that may still be an option in a pinch.

I nearly died, when you told the dupes not to clap for the research whilst panicking about the water leak, marvellous gameplay and commentary as always, glad to see ONI back :)

I've been having a really hard time lately IRL. Really glad you're back with ONI. Thanks.

I have never played with this level of difficulty but it is quite fun watching a skilled player strategize their way through it. Yay for a new series!

If you want a crazy morale bonus I love going for a Nature Reserve between bedrooms and the mess hall. It's insane how much that can do. I recently played the DLC and found myself not really using a Steam Turbine until late game, instead using an Aquatuner to heat up Steam and use that for my rockets I could refuel everywhere I landed with some gas loaders / unloaders.

Hey Francis, from my own experience the best place to get the Locavore achievement is the Sulfur Biome. The combination of grubfruit, grubgrubs, and the grill is how I got it. Anyways Good Luck.

I appreciate these always being out just in time for my lunch break!

When "it's fine" for Francis, it's entertaining for viewers.

Your editing is really underrated, the mid-build mini montages are really nice and the commentary is well incorporated. 10/10!

I was so excited to hear you were going to do another ONI run, I rewatched the Baby Base series in the meantime. I'm stoked!

ONI has been missed. If pips still work the same you might want to optimize their planting of oxiferns. You might also want to think about running a pip farm until your hatch population takes off. it would have to be built around an already fully grown tree making it interesting to try and fully optimize the farm

- "Hello, my name is Nicola, i love doing research" - "Good to hear that, now get on that threadmill electro-boi"

Man I thought this was an old video of yours, and was so excited to binge watch it. Just saw its from today :/ I actually returned to ONI about a month ago with nostalgia and had to re-watch your videos from like 2018 about Rodrigues setup and regolith management and like 10 more :)

Yes, ONI! Recently I myself started playing it again, however, over the time with all the updates ONI has grown more strange and complex for me. Hope to see some basics on new content too.

Finally. The series I missed has started again. Thank you Francis.

Thanks, Francis! Your ONI Let's Plays are something else :)

ONI IS BACK!!! Thanks Francis John for all the great ONI content and guides.

This is why I subscribbed to this channel long time ago. Ultra difficulty that I cannot handle but Francis can.

Glad to see ONI back on the menu! I don't even play ONI anymore but love watching you build these crazy things!

This is the first video I saw from you. It was on my normal recommendation page and now I'm a subscriber :)

"Yeah, this is gonna suck isn't it? It's fine... it's FINE" :-) I think I'm gonna love this playthrough! Glad to have you back on ONI, can't wait to see what trouble you get into.

I didn't realise how big of a hole this being gone had left in me. This felt great to watch!

Seeing you just post ONI on the channel just made my morning!

Be sure to have a Nature Reserve close by - easy morale if you position it near the barracks or the mess!

Great to see you're taking on the challenge of ONI Max Difficulty with All Achievements! I took that on with Flipped Asteroid and barely made Carnivore with just a couple days to spare! It'll seriously be a challenge without Dreckos Reed Fiber for you, though! Excited to watch the upcoming episodes!

This made me smile 💕 hope u doing great!

I missed this game so much. Thanks Francis!

You have no idea how happy I get when I saw you come back to play oni I was waiting for this for long time

Cannot put into words how excited I am for a new Oxgyen Not Included series!!!

Love watching you play Francis! nice one

Pumped to see a new playthrough. I'm hot trash at this game and watching you has made me 100x better.

Finally got through last years spaced out, I’m catching up Francis! 😂. Now that I’m playing Spaced Out and failing in many spots, I love watching your series to see how you’ve passed a challenge

So glad your back on Oni. Been missing this

It's back! the whole reason I stayed subbed to see this again

Been waiting what feels like forever for more ONI. Francis at his best imo :)

ONI IS BAAAACK. Yay FJ. So excited for this playthrough. You are a light in the darkness.

Nice touch on the colony name: "Kenshi when" LOL

Yay! I've missed you and my regular ONI tutorials!

The king has returned. So good to see you back to ONI!

Recently started an all achievement run on spaced out (not crazy difficulty though). At Ravenous difficulty, you'll need 10 dupes eating full meat for 20 cycles, so you have a lot of time with infrastructure. For sure, this is hardest with the sustainable achievement as well, so you'll need to get incubators ASAP to get the hatches up and running to full power. You dont have to build full automation on incubators to save power, you can use an automation switch (or a daily timer) to turn it on and off without using weight plates, buffer, etc. Ratio should be 1.5 happy hatches for dupe on normal, so I think you'll need at least 30 happy hatches to make 5 hatches a day to make 20kcal of bbq a day. Make sure to have proper infrastructure so that hatches never get cramped because that will really delay the bbq engine. Pips might be good to supplement here, if you can get wild trees setup (or build around existing ones), its 6:1 happy pips to feed 1 dupe with bbq. Worst case scenario, port over to the other planet and kill all but 1 sweetle for meat, but I love having wild grubgrub at endgame to accelerate my farming without feeding them. Once you get locavore and carnivore, its simply a waiting game with manual generators, hydrogen generators and (if you can unlock them) solar and geothermal to hit the sustainable achievement. Best of luck!

I like your Rimworld content but I love(d) your ONI content, glad to see this again

Great to see you playing ONI again. This is teh game that got me into your channel and you were the person who got me into ONI. One thing about achievements, in spite of not being in the list, for "Super Sustainable" you can't use ethanol either, because as soon as you build a petroleum generator it fails the achievement. On the other hand, I would think hungry dupes make it easier to get carnivore (providing they don't starve) because in my playthroughs going for it, the hard thing was hitting the 100 cycle limit without having eaten enough. Finally, you forgot to set the direction on your sinks.

Oh boy, this is gonna be good. And by "good" I mean "hell" for Francis. :D

Very happy you've come back to ONI!

Nice! Definitely go for all the achievements. Losing is fun!

YESSSSS!! Welcome back to the Asteroid, FJ!!

I have been looking forward to this!

Came for the rimworld, stayed for the Francis John. Love your content.

I was currently watching your rimworld playthrough (nomadic tribal first) as my must see for the moment. Those will have to wait when there is new ONI to watch though!

Good stuff, keep it coming!

Yippee! I love my Francis John ONI playthroughs! I'm watching from poolside in Mexico!

You don't know how much i long for your ONI marathons

great to see you back on ONI!

SO happy to see Francis is back to ONI! I have this start and trying to get all achievements. My map only get 1 natural hatch, and I use some S/L to ensure the pod print out some hatch eggs ......

I have waited for so long...Finally!

Anyone else rewatching old Francis ONI videos while hoping and waiting for another playthrough?

Yay!! Been waiting for this series

Glad you're back to ONI, I've really missed it.

subscribed. Such a great content!

For recretional building in great hall, you can use the Party Line Phone which they can use to decrease stress even without the rest of the planets

Yey~! I love your ONI series~

I’ve never played ONI in my life but still watch all your vids on it. Looking forward to how this one plays out!

love the oni content, great to see its back

great to see you back

Yesssss!!! Another ONI series!

Hurrah ONI is back! I like how you put everything on hard for more fun, I put everything on easy for the same reason!

Those difficulty changes in the beginning.. The Duplicants just became expendable Rimworld pawns :D Also, remember to change the direction on the bathroom sinks.

Missed your ONI can’t wait for more!!

I can't lie... when I watched your channel update this weekend and you said you were going to focus on 1 game at a time, and first up would be ONI, I was disappointed. I've gotten so used to thinking of you as "the Rimworld guy" on my KZfaq list, that's really all I associated you with anymore even though you do a lot more. After watching this episode... I remembered why I came to this channel in the first place, and that was for ONI. It'll be nice watching a series where I'm not worried that the colony will be wiped out in the next attack, and it'll be fun to see how you tackle all of the problems you gave yourself with this challenge. This will be a nice change of pace! I'm excited again!

Yessss this is what I’ve been waiting for don’t ever leave me for so long 😋

I am so happy to have another ONI playthrough!!!!!

My favorite youtuber is back on my favorite game! Today is a good day

"No don't stop and clap for the research!" Classic ONI moment 😂

You are still so salty about Kenshi and I love it. I can't wait for you to explore and break Kenshi with murder hobos in the future!

So good ! I need more and I need it now ! :D

Love the videos. Thanks you.

12:36devon my boy doing a little trolling

Welcome Back, I hope you enjoy the updates and the new challenges. I have for sure.

Great series 🤩🤩🤩

You forgot to switch teleporters off and care packages. Evil grin

Nice! This is almost my current play through. Same map, max difficulty, but a few more handicaps to make it even harder: No care packages, no pip planting or wild crops (at all), no starvation ranching, no matter conversion bugs (petroleum boiler, sour gas boiler), and minimal atmo suit usage. But at least I don’t have to worry about achievements! The GM A OK achievement at the end is horrible anyway.

Whoohoo! new ONI playthrough!

Yay!!! I needed this

Yess, I love that you're doing a max difficulty, all achievements playthrough. That's the only way I play nowadays. Although I've never tried it on radioactive ocean before. I'm sure you'll figure out ways to deal with the various challenges you encounter. Sounds like a SPOM will be top priority, along with incubators. Once you get past the initial hurdles, I'd strongly recommend you build a bottomless SPOM in space for hydrogen power. Of course knowing you, we'll probably see something far crazier like a cycle 50 nuclear reactor!

Yessss finally back to ONI, so glad to see it.

Me: I haven't played ONI in a while (a little longer than the entire SO early access period), let me ease back into the game by playing one of the initial Spaced Out maps on the standard Survival settings first. FJ: Radioactive Ocean, "max" settings, all achievements. Let's go. (Quotation marks due to care packages being enabled, given how much help those can offer, especially when going for Loca- & Carnivore, I consider that checkbox the only real difficulty setting. The rest just makes the game slightly more tedious.) Either way, this is going to be fun.

this is gonna be gooood

A challenge! I'm hooked :)

Happy to see another ONI series!! You’ve already done all achievements for the base game, and now doing it on DLC... Safe to say we should expect Patreons subscribers for DLC? Base game was 144 dupes...

And here I am watching year old Badlands videos just because I wanted some ONI.

YES! been waiting for ONI to come back!

tks for coming back with oni

"and the stress more fun" he says through clearly gritted teeth lol...... rip sanity

Good luck on this run looks challenging. You don't need mechatronics for the teleporters the loaders and rails are already built. You just need field research to activate them.

Nice, thats gonna be... fun^^
