This update is MASSIVE, and to think that this is potentially not even all of it... 0_o Read up on it here to also learn of some Host Server changes too, forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/122472-game-update-435008/ I learned about and filmed what I could but it's clear that there could be things still left on the table so if folk have the information, share it! This is new to everyone! Enjoy it!

Everyone are talking about the Minecraft cave update but no one is talking about the Don't starve cave update

Maxwell’s utter confusion and comments of not knowing things are... almost eerie. He‘s not known about a good few new things by this point but just how utterly lost he is is really another step entirely. Really goes to show moon is a completely other side of Them. Or, maybe something not quite part of Them, but comparable.

7:20 Disappointed that Klei didnt take the chance and called the turf "moontated fungle turf" instead of mutated fungle turf

Mush cake gives you immunity to sleep effects. Including Mandrakes.

The Dust Moths look so depressed. I wish I could pet them and cuddle them just to help make them feel happy for a moment. And their little cooing noises are just too precious!

The Astral Detecor is meant to lead you to the pieces of the 3rd Celestial Altar, when you place them at the correct spot it starts drilling into the ground and pops out a piece. Try placing the Celestial Altar, Celestial Tribute, and the new Celestial Altar close by, you'll find something very interesting. The Sealed Portal has no use yet, its purpose will probably be fulfilled in a future update.

The light-flower bugs will only follow you if you capture one of them via a big net and would stay until the captive has been released or deceased

If you read the quotes it hints that Wortox knows how to read the runes, and reads them quite easily. He also states that he shouldn't tell the mortals about the sealed portal prior to having the power turned on, meaning 3 things (or more).(1) That Wortox was there when the portal was sealed. (2) Wortox was an acquaintance or familiar of the ancients. (3) He had known about the sealed portal before Maxwell and the other survivors, meaning he has turned the power on before. [Note] This could also mean that the ancient language is universal, expanding across dimensions including the done where Wortox came from. Or that the Moon and the shadow creatures have a multidimension influence/reign and are not just tied to the Constant. (some evidence that may support this is that in the gorge there are also runes.) P.S. I hope Wortox teaches Maxwell how to read runes in a klei comic.

wow this update is MASSIVE! and I'm really looking forward to the lore that will come with it as well!

10:55 If you put the Astral detector down on the ground(not cave), it points to a specific location. Following this(like pipspook), you will find a new Celestial altar. When you build 2 more Celestial Altar on the Moon Island and obtained by killing Crab King, a mysterious sphere( 13:40 ) appears. I got this information from the Korean DS community.

I wanted some underwater caves, but this is not what I expected.

*cries in broken laptop*

I might be a bit late, but remember the Gorge portal on the floor? This floor portal looks extremely similar, maybe it's connected?

Maybe with the sentry boios we might be able to get a baby version of em, as a new hutch or a critter and possibly the moon version of clockwork followers.

FYI-In Greek mythology, ambrosia was considered the food or drink of the Olympian gods, and it was thought to bring long life and immortality to anyone who consumed it.

This seems like a really interesting update! I really like the idea of renewable Thulectice, and it won't be too overpowered early game bc you need those pesky iridescent gems... It could be a lifesaver for those of us who just aren't going to be able to kill the Fuelweaver but need crowns still. That said, I do hope that there are more things to do while you wait for the moth things to finish cleaning everything, so that it's not just waiting around, and while I like the idea of reviving enemies, it could get really annoying if your world generates with quite a lot, so I hope there's a cap on it. Also, do you know if the nightmares killed by gestalts drop nightmare fuel, bc that could have some interesting uses for farming...

I have a feeling there is another huge event and more like the "Ancient awakening" and it feels like Klei might have a problem putting it since it is still under development, the portal feels like it needs a key and that "Mysterious Energy" you mention might be the key to power the Artifact.

I think in the puzzle on the floor involving the distilled knowledge, each circle represents a phase of the moon, (seeing as there are eight & there are statues with moons all over). Also each distilled knowledge can trigger a different phase/circle on the floor even though they look identical when you get them. You put a distilled knowledge on each circle on the floor & figure out the order you need to step on them by trial & error. Upon completing the sequence the center distilled knowledge opens to give you a crafting recipe, except it doesn't yet. I assume it is meant to give you the astral detector blueprint.

it would be cool if during a full moon the part of the cave is flooded and you can get to a secret island

The moon is light and its wants revenge I'm fine as long as it restores Charlie

If you wanted to make cobblestones Beard, would you rather walk all the way to a rocky biome, dig up turf, and head back to base than just craft the turf with rocks and flint?

This update is so cool. You know what else is super cool? A wall guide

I was hoping something would be added to the caves

What if that portle thing will open up and it teleports u to hamlet or opens google and Rick rolls you

I hope that the dust moths have more purpose later on and more content added to them as to me they seem to be very important to 'Them' being their source of thulcite.

It's amazing how klei always make great updates, those lunar caves are beautiful! The forgotten knowledge part is still incomplete but my gosh if it's amazing! But i must say thank you beard for your dedication, and for making me always smile, keep it up man!

This is a pretty dope looking update.... too bad I'm too scared to enter the caves for anything other than rock lobsters

That biome with the waterfalls though in love

the way he said Amberosia killed me xP

3:03 look at the mole bat it's so sad it's crying while eating D:

This update is massive I want to become a full.

Wow, I am really excited to start playing with the new content!! Thanks for the explainer video. :)

It’s crazy, I just started playing (figured out) about this game a little over a month ago watching hundreds of tutorials and after further research finding out how old this game is, I was for sure that this game wasn’t that populated and was probably never gonna get anymore updates.. thankfully I was wrong and the DST servers seem pretty populated!! I can’t tell you how addicted I am to this game!!

Always been watching you for intel, thanks Beard.

i havent played this gave in over a year, thank u for this guide much needed guide at that ^^

I think the astral detector points to lunar island but idk

how many more updates appear, I can't keep up with what's new

Saying"Hollow knight" until Beard finishes it. Day 232

I was seeing it in the beta list but chose to not play till you make the video

The Beard: “Lots to digest” Me: I see what you did there

Yessss my world is hitting around day 450 and i need a new one. Perfect time to update when this drops

Me who just started a new world 1 week ago with the boys : BRUH

OMG can't wait. love don't starves

Hi beard! When are you streaming? I recently got DST on PC and I wanna play on your streams!

I bet that portal is gonna be the start to 1 of 2 things the war of Charlie and The MOON! or a boss fight with someone who is related to the Mooon

Do we need to make a new world to get this? Or is it possible that adds news places to the map?

*The Sealed Portal does look awfully similar to the Gorge portal, no?*

Good thing I had to leave school early to watch this video

I want an plush of dust moths.

Looking at the thumbnail, you know its big.

Craftable Turfs, particularly craftable Rocky Turf, means that there is no longer a limit to how much Cobblestone you can make, which means you can PAVE THE ENTIRE CONSTANT. Granted, you'd likely want to leave a patch or two of Lunar turf to keep a Stone Fruit Bush field, but otherwise it's now possible to enjoy that delicious speed buff EVERYWHERE, including the entirety of the Lunar Island and the Caves/Ruins. I wonder who'll do it first?

The astral detector points you to a location to dig up thingies

I think the astral detector is a lunar island crafting tab thing forgot what it’s called but that what I think it is

I'm super excited

I hope I’m gonna be able to unsocket my celestial altars for this. I put both in the ground already

Anybody want a Lunar Hutch? Thuchelite Hutch? USEful pet? More Chester Transformations? More Mushroom Crock pot items? Using Salt Rocks for certian recipes? Certain foods should give, not game breaking but nice effects, Meatballs for Damage, Butter Muffins for extra butterflies, a Coconut crock pot recipes for Ship wreck, Ruined Centrypedes, in ship wreck a Under Water biome with a Drowning meter, being able to catch orbs of Life/Light to revive a Pile of Mech for all 3 mechs

Good thing I'm about to get a computer upgrade... Massive update.

I can't even survive the first winter....

i feel like it is just some sort of bug but why do I only have one fountain of knowledge? I have the blue one that gives the crafting recipe that can only be used on the surface to be able to dig up a certain item

I saw an add for the forgotten knowledge update on this video. They didn't even give me a spoiler warning!

Thank you beard of knowlege

Funny thing is that with the eye of the storm update absolutely everything became clear! If you think of things that way

This is amazing

All aboard the hype train!

The milk made hat really interests me

Allright klei, you got me, I'm gonna play your game again

@the beard 777 Can you only experience the update if you create a new world?

One last thing you missed is that the mushy cake will prevent you from sleeping, which is mostly useless but finally lets us fight Bearger outside of autumn.

Hey I know this video is old but I thought I just tell you this anyways the lunar lightbulb creatures they will only follow you if you capture one of them then they’ll I’ll start orbiting you but if you don’t have one captured then they won’t do it

this probably means that Maxwel will have a rework

those sentry things remind me of skyrims dwarf robots

The Astral Detector helps you locate the Lunar Island, from what I heard.

Hi, Beard! I’m a returning DST player and you’ve always been my go to channel for content! Just wondering what mods you use? :)

i like how wilson and Winona look midly insane becuase of the caves

i kinda hope to alsol get some more isles at somepoint i mean the ocean is more or less empty and i feel like the caves realy dit not needed more

Hey beard because I'm early I hope you see my comment. Can you do a video explaining good character combinations. Like Wx and wickerbottom or wendy and wortox or Wolfgang and warly and so on.

Which side do you choose when the portal to the Moon finally opens?

Do a mod monday on Whiley or Wiley the astronaut alien, he hasn't gotten an update but he's pretty cool!

I guess balloons might kill them if you can trow one at it

FINNALY!

Nice!!

Omg I need this. Do we have to start a new game to get the new bioma?

No turf is huge in long plays cause gettin rocky turf for roads is well annoyin now we can make it

8:30 when you realize it's a fricking toilet O-O

This game keeps updating and they get better and better

wow 2020 is getting better :)

what if the moon si the light that one of the king/queen guys used but the other used darkness

Beard have you tryed going through the portal quickly after you killed ancient fuel Weaver?

yay I want MY LAPTOP BACK THIS LOOK SO COOOOL

Loving that the 3 big games of survival. (Minecraft, Terraria, Don't Starve) is having their big updates in this month. Still sad abt journey's end tho.

I think that the astral detectors are used for the "sealed portal" by butting them on the 4 plates

When the update drops, you'd have to make a new world as it wouldn't apply to worlds made prior to the update, correct?

No matter the situation, the moon is a immensely powerful entity. The shadow and The light are now fighting and we are we spectators? Or will we be the neutral party who truly eviscerates all?

i wonder if you can use bath bombs on the vistreoasis

HYPE! HYPE! HYPE! HYPE! HYPE!

Am I the only one who recognised that portal as the one from the gorge/forge

Hey Beard i just found out that all 3 celestial alters summon the mysterious energy and the astral detector shows the way to the new altar

Ayee Cave update sounds kinda like...

Omg I’m so exicteddddddd
