Those changes came after a publicized conversation that developer Pirate Software had with the team in which they provided comprehensive feedback to Starry. "Cosmetics currently are also per character, which feels very bad," the developer said. "I would much rather have these account-wide. Currently, I have no reason to buy a cosmetic as I would then have to rebuy it for each character I make. Why should I buy a cool hat multiple times just because I made multiple characters? Not interest

In terms of a permanent offline mode, I think this should probably just be the norm for survival crafters going forward. A lot of people like to relax on these games. Building, grinding, farming mobs. Nightingale was rightfully criticized for being always-online during its launch, and a couple of months later the developers released a single-player offline version. But it was too little, too l

Crafting and selling equipment is the easiest way to earn Energy Links. However, this method is very expensive, especially in the early game where players don't have many resources to work with. Although, if you find a nice spot full of Iron in Once Human , you can start making and selling iron-tier items for a decent profit. You don't necessarily need to use Iron — if you find a good place for farming Tin and Copper, you can craft Bronze Pickaxes and sell them to NPC vendors for a good chunk of Energy Links in the early game.

Regardless of what's transpired, it's refreshing to see a company not only take swift action, but also be as responsive as possible. Based off the word of people like Pirate Software, there's a good game hidden in there and fan feedback can help bring that out. Only time will tell, though, if gamers will have enough patience to see that thro

Updated September 23, 2024 by Marc Santos: Farming Energy Links remains as important as ever in Once Human, especially for players who want to get those Starchrom Crates at the end of every scenario. While the methods listed in this guide still work, we've added a few more to help players who need to get more Energy Links as quickly as possible. This guide has been updated to include a section covering the best items to sell in the game to make Energy Links a problem of the past.

Sanity can also be depleted by consuming raw meat, spoiled food, or dirty water . To avoid taking a loss in Sanity points, it is imperative that players avoid consuming such items, instead focusing on consuming cooked meat and boiled water.

Another issue that sprouted up revolves around paid cosmetics. Because the game was originally intended for players to have one singular character on a single server, it had tied purchased cosmetics to that individual. But since Starry Studio has since reversed that decision, the cosmetics were still a hangup for players. After all, who wants to re-purchase a cosmetic that you already technically

When you boot up a new game, you're likely to expect that there will be some terms of service to adhere to. What you're less likely to expect is that those terms of service will ask for a "government-issued ID". That's exactly what Once Human d

I’m speculating that Once Human collectibles Human will have an excellent launch on Steam - it’s a shiny new free-to-play game after all - but those numbers will start to slip after the first server wipe. And then slip some more after the next one, and so on. Once Human needs to have the unbelievable sticking power of Rust to contend with its rivals. The main issue is that a six-week wipe is a lot longer than a three-week wipe. Rust is temporary, ephemeral - progress always comes and goes. But Once Human is a much longer, hard-fought slog. People will only stick around if they feel like it's worth it. And whatever else the game does well, it’s going to have to do it extremely well to keep people coming back every six we

Once Human is an always-online multiplayer open-world survival crafting game. If you’ve recoiled from that sentence and are now shaking your head in disgust, I completely understand. But bear with me. Once Human is not revolutionary in its design, but from what I’ve played so far, it takes a lot of concepts familiar to the genre and makes them better. Combat is satisfying, though it definitely needs a few tweaks when it comes to PvP balance; building is complex and gratifying; the grind for materials isn’t even that bad (with better tools, trees can drop thousands of pieces of wood at once); and the world design is downright bizarre. Take a look at these nutcrackers as an exam

It's also a positive sign that Netease is listening to player feedback, as it's the second response they've given within the first 24 hours of Once Human's launch. Shortly after the game became available, players were disappointed to learn that they could only ever create one character , and that character would be permanently locked to a single server. Starry Studio quickly rectified that issue, confirming in their official Discord that "multiple-character creation is now availab
