      That’s my most played game by a large margin, I used to be completely obsessed with it for years

        How many hours do you have in it? I’m just getting started and I’m barely out of the tutorial, looking for food to survive.

          Around 5300, which is about 4x larger than my next most played game. Are you playing the survival mode? If not then food shouldn’t be necessary to survive. It can come in handy though in some fights. Food basically acts as a healing potion (though there’s also healing potions, but obviously a little less common than food. Still common though). If you want I can give you some tips on what I like to do on a new playthrough (I can avoid spoilers and omit cheesy early game strats if you want, and only include enough stuff to make the early game a smooth experience)

            I’m playing on survival mode. I don’t want any tips for now, thank you! How do you have so many hours? My most played game (Factorio) is only 800 hours.

              Funny enough, in my 5300 hours I’ve never tried survival mode. It’s relatively new (at least as far as games from 2011 are concerned) so much of my playtime was from before it became an option.

              Honestly, I had a lot of free time around 2016-2021 so that helped. It was also one of the only games I played for probably 3-4 years straight

                What were you doing in the game with all those hours? 100%'ing it with every race?
