Neat
cool
What's that strange link
Honestly I love the visuals that are games play from don't starve
I have something really important to add
Wes is a stereotypical french mime
and lives in france because the bakery is boucherie on the sign.
He saves Witherstone who also lives in france.
After Maxwell moves to america he buys some cheap magic items from Witherstone.
Witherstone is in America but also France. his daughter lives there too so it could be a business trip but that's unlikely.
He kidnaps 4 people before Wes. at most this happened in a month.
So he moves from america to france after his debtor dies for unknown reasons. bit of bad story writing
That “Don’t Starve To-Get-Her” was actually genius
“WE MAY HAVE LOST OUR MOST POWERFUL SOLDIER (willow AND Wolfgang) BUT WE WILL MURDER THAT SHADOW NIGHTTIME- everyone’s dead”
-Wilson
Alternatively it could be “Don’t Starve 2: Get Her”
Those f*cking simps

acquire her
"This entire deal turns out to be a scam as the portal takes him to The Constant and now Wilson is too stupid to make a shovel without a science machine." That is the best thing I ever heard
Getting teleported to another reality took all the points out of Wilson's intelligence stat
@@polytanksan5761 of what he had
Wicker bottom diddent forget though
Omg I just had a theory that Wilson is accualy
STUPID
And winona who's an engineer can't craft a backpack without a science machine
@@botttttle I mean, she's an engineer, not a tailor.
In the original game it is implied that Maxwell’s motivation for bringing people into the constant is to find someone strong enough and determined enough to claim the throne and replace him.
Also, every player death in the constant is canon and dead survivors are throne back in as part of a purgatory. The constant is a sort of trial for the throne.
Maxwell’s annoyance with the survivors throughout adventure mode is an act. He is making them believe that getting closer to him means that they are winning when in reality he is tricking them into setting them free.
By killing the survivors repeatedly and making them hate him, he is giving them the motive to find him. Once they can’t kill him and they are stuck in a void, their only option is to let him go. He is the one bringing the game to check mate. He didn’t lose.
There's a problem with this theory, it is very possible to die in Epilogue . Maxwell doesn't even try to stop you which would go against this motivation. iirc mining the statue in epilogue spawns a bunch of clockworks which would likely kill you
Its possible that wilson on the throne (according to dont starve new home lore) knew pulling people in could save him, but maxwell was just being mean since he really tried to kill you and keep his place but by the time you get to the throne he has already done everything in the world and is too apathetic to even talk you out of it? But the maxwell machines in adventure mode make a laughing happy face as if he wants you to proceed so idk
@@orangedontstarve what if he max builds the clockworks to protect the throne so he doesnt lose his powers when he first came, but as time passes he doesnt want to be on the throne anymore so he traps the clockworks.
@@wackpendejo3000 but wasnt the throne some sort of prison?? Charlie is the one who imprisoned him(i think)
@@niklasjulianhunke5907 i believe that when he first got in the constant he thought the throne was like a gift, he had all the power ta do whatever he wanted which is what he does since he literally states he created the entire constant world, but as time went on he noticed it was actually a prison, he had the illusion of being all powerful, but he actually had nothing more then what Charlie allowed him to possess.
Basically, he thought he was a god sitting on his throne with his very own dimension, but he was actually a puppet, Charlie is actually the one holding all the power, he only does what he does because she allows him to do it as a form of torture.
16:42 When Maxwell says "put her back in the headlines" he also isnt lying. I'm pretty sure you can see newspapers swirling around her talking of her disappearance. So, she technically made the headlines for a final time due to her vanishing.
That and the events in Village Dodonga.
Wigfrid is a true warrior, starting a fight with her tax papers
“Tax evasion, 30 years in prison, have fun accomplishing your dreams no- WHERE THE FRIK IS SHE?!?!”
*constant portal closes*
@@gongerman9754 The constant the land out of gods and by extension the Tax mans reach.
Wigfrid seems to be German. I mean think about it, she is playing a role in the movie/stage play "Die Walküre", which is German for "The Valkyrie"
Shes the only one who fought the IRS and WON 😭
@@GermanGuyTactical I thought the play was just telling the valkyries to die
What we learned from the various media surrounding DS and DST:
Maxwell canonically has a British accent, which we all know is the most evil of the accents.
Wes Adam&Eved crows into existence.
Also: Warly doesn’t deserve to be in there
@@gongerman9754 almost no one deserve to be in there
does this mean that all crows are inbreeds of each other?
I love evil characters with a british accent, it fits so beautifully, although this may just be my bias.
@@michaeltagor4238 mostly warly. I mean bro his mom?
I believe Maxwell couldn't trap Witherstone again because he requires his victims to be willing to open the portal. When Wes saved him, he got the doll and shared a happy moment with his daughter, wich might have caused him to conclude that nothing Maxwell offers would be worth leaving his daughter behind.
I feel like a more likely theory is that he thinks that Wes is witherstone, which is why he said “he displeased me”, when. He examines him.
@@Huebert_G_rection im pretty sure he doesnt think that the young adult who’s mute and a mime is the mature adult who he was in debt too
@@Huebert_G_rection I am pretty sure Maxwell met Witherstone in person before, so he knows that Wes isn't him, and even if he didn't meet him in person somehow then he isn't that stupid.
Maybe Wes was just really annoying.
He didn't know what he was thinking, leaving his child behind
Maxwell actually kept all his deals. Wilson wanted knowledge, Maxwell gave him knowledge. Webber wanted to be normal, so he took him to the constant where giant spiders are a normal occurrence. Abigail wanted her sister back, he brought her back as a ghost. Wigfred wanted the whole world to be her stage and put her in the headlines, Maxwell brought her to the Constant where she can act out her role, her disappearance putting her in the headlines. Because of this Warly’s mother could’ve actually been cured and become independent again.
Maxwell actually did all of those things JUST to scam the survivors. Warly's mother COULD get better, or she could be healthy as a ghost, who knows?
Edit: what i mean is that he just did half of the promised thing the survivors wanted.
@@mishagaming1075I mean Warly's mom could just be magically cured by shadows, but still, her son freaking disappeared, so I doubt she'd be any happier
He keeps his promises but in a different way than expected
@@maxifire32monkeys paw
Maxwell gave Warly the means to heal his mother, presumably from the magical food ingredients from the Constant. Unfortunately, he didn't get to take his mother with him so she's all alone now..
the only thing i don't agree with is that Maxwell is pulling random people for "no reason".
That's actually not true. He is pulling them in, because he thinks they can free him. If you think about it, the characters he chose (except Wes) all have the abilities to free him. (Wilson and Winkerbotom have the inteligance to survive, Wolfgang has the strength to defeat anything, Willow is immune to fire and to the shadows, as long her teddy bear is with her, etc.)
Let's not forget, a lot of the survivors have some pre-existing connection to Maxwell. Wendy, Winona, Wolfgang, Warly, even probably Wurt and Wortox. (as, if what Maxwell says is true, he had to of made them) The rest are in a more grey area, but only 2 that we know of, ended up in the Constant accidentally. (Wes and Wanda)
@@thexp905 oh I missed that one completely, how is Warly connected to Maxwell? (Sorry if gets explained in the video, I'm yet to watch it)
@@user-fw7op9os6r Don't worry, it's not. In fact, I could be mis-remembering this myself. I believe it's hinted at, that his maman has some relation to shadow magic, and Maxwell. There are a few in game quotes that hint towards it.
@@thexp905 Webber got eaten by a spider brought back from the Constant, which might have been created by Maxwell, so they are kinda connected. I wonder what was Maxwell's deal that brought Webber to the Constant.
@@lucasskywalification Probably "I can make you normal" Just not the normal they were expecting.

My favourite headcannon is that Wilbur is from the same circus as Wolfgang.
With Wilbur's circus-like attire, status, knowledge about using tools and machines. Leaves me to believe that Wilbur was one of the escaped circus monkies that the newspaper warned about.
Maxwell has a quote about Wilbur stating "Well I suppose theres no sending you back now." Which could mean that Maxwell accidently sent Wilbur in the constant, but in what way? Maybe when Maxwell was trying to get Wolfgang.
Also Wolfgang says this line aswell, "Welcome friend, Ha ha!" Which almost solidifies my theory. Wolfgang does call everyone friend, but i prefer that Wolfgang knew Wilbur.
The thing is who is Woodlegs is he just a actor or is he made in SW now this is a mystery
This makes sense that Wilbur doesn't look exactly like the monkeys sure he is but his appearance isn't the same as them knowing the prime apes knowing how dumb they can be sometimes they only made Wilbur King because he looked different or Wilbur fooled them by taking a crown and putting it on and fooling the prime apes so he can use them to live longer, however it's either the cave monkeys aren't fooled and more intelligent OR Wilbur is only the monkey king to one generation and that is the prime apes.
Who’s Wilbur?
@@Zippyissilly character from the shipwrecked Don’t Starve
(not Don’t Starve Together)
DLC that is unlocked via collecting a crown via killing a bunch of monkeys (kinda like Webber’s skull for Reign of Giants) and using it on… something, you’ll know when you find it on the water.
@@donutlovingwerewolf8837 would you let it be a surprise?
This is actually a really really good recap of the Don’t Starve (Together) lore, probably your best video to date (the Iceberg was really good too). The way you blend in comedy with it all is just sublime. The Don’t Starve lore has always been my favorite part of the game so it’s really nice that there’s a modern video explaining it. Also, genuinely never noticed that the original 8 survivors correspond to the 8 pawns on a chessboard and how Maxwell (the king) is a really weak piece with Charlie being really strong because she’s the queen.
A thing to add is that since Maxwell basically does his end of the deal Warlys mother may be alive, so you know, theres that.
That short broke my heart when I first saw it and and I've lived thinking that she was basically left to die ever since. I'm glad I saw this because now it gives me even a fraction of hope that she's okay
I think it's worth pointing out that the makeshift portal that Charlie destroys in the comic was the portal used in the DST beta, which was then replaced with the floral portal when the game came out of beta, so even the DST beta was lore :D
That's actually really cool
A couple details you missed out on, Charlie is free in this world because of the association to the chess board again. Charlie is the Queen piece, being the most important in raw power for chess. And Maxwell referring to "Them" is not the shadow creatures as you say in 25:52 but in fact more related to the moon, supported by the fact the Fuel Weaver, who is speculated to be one of the old rulers of the kingdom that has fallen to shadows, also refers to "Them" in his line of death "You are not Them" this means the shadow creatures are not "Them" but they definitely communicate with them in some way at some time. And the update of course named, "The Return of Them". They have always been here but the shadow creatures are completely different and are speculated to be some form of bug people who found refuge in using shadow fuel.
On the other hand with the Wolfgang lore I don't think it changes anything on the earlier parts of the story, more as reinforces what was already there. William Carter had to escape from his old life and so he went with the traveling circus to escape to San Francisco. That accident that happens just wants to highlight the fact he had the book during that time.
Well, at least from the video we know that Wolfgang gets his powers from the shadows, and that he was ready to go to any lengths to get stronger, so Maxwell would have a reason to pull him into the Constant, but not only that, he kept his promise, he gave him the strength he wanted.
@@NikolasoGames he was and still is the strongest DST character
also, i think that the fuelweaver was searching for a way to beat "Them" why?
Well first of all, in the ancient archives, that are clearly related to the moon the centipede attack you if you use shadow weaponry, and fuelweaver's presumed society was pretty much based around nightmare fuel, so that's the motive, also, you know how sanity works the other way around on the lunar island? And what does fuelweaver's helmet do? Exactly, so my theory is that the ancient civilization that lived in the constant before Maxwell got there was in some way defeated by "Them" (another thing, the glass cutter is the only weapon in the game that uses half durability when fighting nightmare creatures)
Not too sure about this... I'm pretty sure the fuelweaver says this because the final blow is actually dealt by Charlie. She "isn't Them", just using their power. The combined forces of both "Moon" and shadow are hinted at to be Them. The creatures that control the Constant. Maxwell's inspection of a lantern states, at least last time I checked, "I hope it keeps Them away". Why would you need light to keep away beings of "Moon"?
In Encore, the part after the final act we can see Acient Fuelweaver 'boutta to beat the daylight out of her in the background, or she just get choosed by Acient Fuelweaver
2:48 ooooh, that explains the Wolfgang video! We literally see what happens to William: Wolfgang saves him, with the help of William’s dark magic. If it weren’t for William and Wolfgang’s interaction, William may’ve never seen the true power of the shadow magic. That means… that Wolfgang was kinda William’s first experiment, by near accident. But no wonder people thought he was dead, he nearly was, then when he saw what he did to Wolfgang, he ran, considering the true power he held in his hands.
Wolfgang also cause all the events of the games to happen
@@pug8714 no it’s all Wes’s fault
@Redd Maxwell would likely be dead aswell
Before this short, the general consensus was that Maxwell sent Wolfgang to the Constant as a revenge (kind of like he wanted to with George) for the train crash (because of the poster of the circus), and that Maxwell's tought process was kind of like "yeah, I shall sent that bitch I faked my death because of". But now with the short we know Wolfgang actually saved him?? Like, wtf Maxwell why would u do that lol
And then after having his life saved by Wolfgang he threw him into the Constant
I feel like Maxwell brought people in for company, or more likely, to free him from the throne, so that with his knowledge, Maxwell can fix this situation and free everyone. Then, his wish came true with Wilson before Charlie becomes queen. Still doesn’t excuse his actions though.
He just wanted friends to play don't starve together with
If he wanted to send people to the throne why was he so desperate for a truce when Wilson was getting close?
But then wuy wold he try to prevent them from getting to him
@@namelessliberty9869 Maybe that maxwell was controlled by them
@@madman7544 Or maybe, to encourage Wilson to keep going, cause he was getting close to Maxwell. Wilson does percieve him as a villain, so his desperation, ends up pushing Wilson to continue instead of giving up.
People have to be insane before Maxwell can use magic to pull them into the Constant. Just like in the game where you can only see shadows when insane. Everyone was going through a rough patch in their life and that's when Maxwell swoops in
Id like to think sanity is a very real thing in the lore
@@clauday6467very real as in "exactly like the game mechanic"?
Personally, what I like to think is that Charlie and Maxwell are about 7 something feet tall, while all other characters are different heights
Maxwell most likely didn't kidnap people for fun and games but to find someone able to free him from the nightmare throne, it propably isn't fun being stuck in one place for all eternity listening to a looping jazz song, he doesn't care if the people he brings in suffer, or meet the same fate as him, he just wants to get off the funky chair. Potential reason for why he brought wendy into the constant is because he thought that she might have a chance of freeing him because of being related, she also propably heard the song because it's playing in Maxwell's room and he was trying to contact her, And got Wolfgang in there because he already helped him once before
Also Wilbur is 100% a monkey from Wolfgang's circus i have literally no doubts about that
I agree, and this is becomes evident when you look at his early targets. An overly creative scientist, a pyromaniac who has escaped from shadows before, the strongman that saved him from death, a librarian with incredible scientific knowledge (and might possibly even have a connection to the very book that brought them all to the Constant).
@@FIamestalker And Warly, because if you're gonna be stuck for eternity on a nightmare throne you might aswell bring some good food with you too
@@eszynka5913 "I permit him to stay so long as he keeps cooking" Maxwell
@@FIamestalker "let 'em cook" Maxwell Gaming
Didn't tell us to stay away? He also laughs at us like those machines
Ok but you didn't explained how William Afton escaped the freddy fazbear's pizzeria.
I like how the same day as the full don't starve story a new animation drops to explain how Maxwell survived the train crash
24:10 that entire small segment gives me chills, it goes from maxwell being happy to being so terrified that he screams in agony, and that scream is what gets me, because he just got free from being stuck in that throne for eternity that he was happy, until it was quickly ripped away
To everyone commenting about the Wolfgang video, yes I know. It was a difficult decision to even upload this because of its existence. But eventually I decided to do it.
For those unaware it shows William getting saved by Wolfgang under a train crash. I don't want to spoil my theories but I believe this one scene tells us a lot more about the overarching story than you think which is why I ultimately decided to not talk about it until part two. Thank you for reading
Ooh part 2? Sweet, can't wait
So Maxwell could’ve taken wolfgang in because Maxwell believes that wolfgang would’ve survived because Stronk
According to the description in Wolfgang's trailer, Wolfgang was ready to redeem himself after his failure at a show and become stronger, "no matter how dubious the means". This means Maxwell/Charlie reached out to him and fulfilled his promise, at the cost of dragging him into the constant.
@@alimanzoor789 for sure. If maxwell/charlie already had a connection and knew of a way he could manipulate Wolfgang they definitely would
More lore pog
Willow having a potentially bigger kill count that Maxwell seems to have aged pretty well (by Wickerbottom's animation short)
Theory: people hear "music" when communig with Maxwell because of that disc player by his throne
so he's talking over deafening music like some kid in a public lobby
That trollface Maxwell is gonna be the most cursed thing I've seen today. Either way amazing video I really like your humour
13:19
@@theburningkitten4019 you are welcome
6:50 wow, that's impressive, in this universe steam exists in like 1903 year, that explains Maxwell Gaming.
Im guessing, Willow burnt the New York Library, the who is shown in winona's short, where Wickerbottom being the librarian there
Willow and Charlie are so chaotic
Maxwell gaming too
Orange is my favorite don't starve youtuber he's gotten me back into the game a whole lot and had shown me how much depth the game has
I mean, Willow's DS icon gives us a pretty good idea of what she's been doing through these 10 years
Good video! You covered this topic well, and I'm eager to see a second part of this.
Don't Starve's story is disjointed, but when you can look at the whole thing in one big picture, it surprisingly makes sense. I appreciate how much attention to detail Klei has, even over 8+ years, even down to minute quotes. They care as much as we do, and it's surprising how rare that is in game development, haha.
26:44 So that's what you needed the gif for? I'm glad i could help in making this masterpiece. Merry Christmas.
Honestly for Wigfrid, i thought that the “Maxwell technically keeping his end of the deal but in a twisted way” was his saying “I’ll put you back in the headlines” and a newspaper with an article of her disappearance showing at the end of the video… instead of the whole “world’s a stage” thing. I mean that could apply too, but I think my theory is to much of a coincidence not to have at least some traction.
28:41 and that proves that willson is a genius
He built the beebox next to his base
Dude I was just thinking about how cool it would be to see an analysis of don't starve lore today.
You really going to hit us with the "You know who else is dead? Abigail" 💀💀💀brutal orange man, just brutal
25:54
the fuel weaver says "You are not *Them*" when you defeat him, which tells us that he is impressed, that he was defeated by survivor(s) but not *Them* i don't think that *Them* are nightmare creatures, because he literally uses them in the fight.
I think "Them" is an entity on the moon, as hinted from the trailers of "Return of Them".
Them can also be those gestalts, which fight against the shadow creatures
@@alimanzoor789 Maxwell : When i was here, i saw nothing, but dust and void.
Also Maxwell examining Merms : They were here before me.
Anyway, "Them" are something that is in the constant before anyone else, before the maxwell, i am sure the ancient civilazation in the ruins, were here before maxwell as well, I don't think he created ruins, nor atrium and they falled eventually, since "Them" are the true creators of the Constant, they might not create much, but a world, they search for someone, to make their own additions to the template and of course suffer on the nightmare throne. it's pretty obvious that Return of Them and gestalts from the moon, are not "Them" even the reason, why maxwell got trapped into the constant, is the shadow hands. Yet the moon on the constant, was also before the maxwell, because i don't think maxwell would make gestalts, or the lunar champion in the moon, yet charlie wouldn't too, because she fights gestalts and the moon with darkness, why would she make her self an enemy?
@@pitergrand5488 perhaps the gestalts and the nightmare creatures were both in the constant before maxwell?
OrangE: **uploads don’t starve iceberg**

i understood the surface level of lore such as abigail being dead, but i never did the time to research the actual lore, and you did it all. all i want to say is thank you, thank you for teaching me all the epic lore of dst.
I've been looking for that kind of video FOREVER, hell, even binge-watched all of your content about DST lore out of desperation, and then THIS drops.
OrangE Man never disappoints.

"Somehow Maxwell survived"
Funny timing...
Never played, this is just what I need
14:30 I think she died from a car accident because in the animation when she falls you can hear a car stopping but idk just a theory
I really love this editing 😂 and I don't know why I'm wheezing so hard when you said "Warly's decaying mother"
Ok this video is phenomenal so this is beside the point, but the fact that you used the word "DECAYING" at 13:27 is absolutely hilarious😭😭
12:37,
it's fine, she has netherite armor with fire resistance IV
Correction on the Wigfrid bit: According to the compendium bio, she was a renowned play acter who did many parts, and then when she played Wigfrid the performance was spectacular, but it effected her so much she never managed to capture the same magic she once had in future roles, hence the newspaper.
This game's lore never fails to give me the goosebumps
Charlie is the hostile monster at night and the world creator/nurturing figure at day. The chaos within her has led her to create both good and bad stuff, and gains power from their worldly interactions. This is observed in the animations. She's the queen bee who is bound to the hive(world). The constant world needs her to harness it.
12:14. The concept of bernie could have come from the fact that teddy bears are said to be the protective gaurdians of their children who fight monsters when they are asleep.
This video really helped me fully understand the Don’t Starve series
Thank you so much! And it helped me put to get her pieces with the new Wolfgang video as well :0
Charlie really said "thanks for the portal idea maxwell and wilson"
9:58 Wilson fricking dies in the bombing of the monke Olympics while playing the one man band
Babe wake up new don’t starve lore video dropped
Honestly, the only lore question I have is: Did Maxwell create the weird cave bugs that made the ruins or were they already dead when he got there?
You mean the ancients? Those were already there, and are (as far as we know) original from the Constant. Even if they aren't, they did get there before everyone else (or at least before Maxwell and Charlie)
Maxwell thinks he created everything but he doesn't know for sure
He does say that he designed his clockworks after the ones in the ruins and also says certain things were there before he was and he says he didn't know about the ancient archives yet his memory is a bit hazy since he has forgotten things like the crafting recipes and some ancient text.
I like to imagine that they were some kind of remnant that remained in the seemingly empty constant, kind of like a deleted but not overridden computer file. Which stated to reform by its own volition once Maxwell made the constant in his image. Later he found it under the world he created, and he studied it so that he may learn more about the world surrounding him and so he could innovate in his creations.
This is probably the best lore explained video I've ever seen, detailed and funny. Looking forward to part two
I just wanted to point out real quick the reason Maxwell tricked people into the constant. The compendium states after being put on the throne he was compelled to do so, with the codex umbra "clouding his heart". It might be a fancy way of saying he's a @#&hole, but who knows really?
Maybe They compelled him to kidnap people into the constant, but it was Maxwell alone who tried to get Wilson to take over the throne, because it was actually against Their wishes? Which is why it's still a challenge to get to him? I confused myself writing that...
Please make part two! I love your casual writing style, the visual editing and your sense of humor! I need more of all of this talking about the game's lore!!!!
I liked it when you put on the dragonfly music while you explained Willow's story, it reminds me of when I killed the dragonfly (obviously I mean Don't starve pocket + RoG DLC)
0:50 there is Wilson name in the Poster: "Higgsbury Percival", so maybe Maxwell knew Wilson before taking him to The Constant.
I don't know why but I really enjoy listening to you so these long videos always bring me great joy. Talking about ds is a big plus too.
Keep the good work up!
17:41 OH SO THATS WHO WES PUSHED!!! (Thank you so much I’ve been wondering about this for months now)
William Carter Gaming
Really nice work!! Have been trying to lerning the story fully out for a while. Thank you so much for doing this video made my day :)
I cant thank you enough for the explanations made as a skit in the game. it actually explains it so much better and it makes it easier to understand + remember.
I really love the humor you put in this plus the visual gags all hit really well
I literally just got home from the longest day of classes, and I discovered this video! This is utterly lovely!
I really enjoyed the satirical/casual geographic way that you explained and recapped the a significant portion of the DS and DST lore, the perfect balance of funny, but also informative, investing, and very well pronounced!
I will gladly await for the second part to this lore analysis, *Hungrier, for more!*
Well done orange man! Fantastic editing and great storytelling. Can't wait for part 2!
The realization that all the very subtle undertones of chess within the enemies and even some of the structures and textures of the game- as well as the comparison of Maxwell to being the King but also the weakest piece is honestly pretty genius story writing
10:30 wow wilson is a redditor
Dude this video was awesome. Love your content man. Regardless if it's silly or serious like this. Just good stuff. Thanks for doing what you do
really good video, excellent information with great comedy presentation that isnt heavy in a way that undermines the focus
Finally. It's been so frustrating trying to find any lore on this game. Thank you. Glad I subbed
2:26
"You get your money when you fix this damn door!"
5:33 I think the shadow creature maxwell is referring to is actually Mr Skitts since it’s harmless
Not only is this video very clear and detailed, but it's also extremely entertaining! Great job!
Great video! Summarized stuff very well and had some pretty funny visual gags. I really enjoyed it
You won a new suscriber with just one video, nice job 👍
What if its wagstaff trying to connect the dots with the constant on that board in the Winona video. Think about it. He built wx17 and what is on the board his blueprints. He sent his hologram into the constant in single player to find out more. This would explain his fascination with everything in the constant and him talking about home and how he wishes he could take stuff like nightmare fuel there. Maybe he is trying to figure out how to get everyone out of the constant and is on the verge of a breakthrough. And what if he gave webbers dad the spider because he is a fellow scientist who was helping him out in his studies.
Winona compendium says its her
I was always curious of don't starve lore. Thanks for making a video on it!
This Recap is legit so simple yet so directive ... the best I've seen so far
Doesn't want to wait another year for this video but didn't know he could've waited a few minutes later for the Wolfgang rework that shows backstory of Wolfgang and maxwell train crash
I think knowing how long Wilson was on the throne is not a matter on the growth of his beard. It wouldn't make sense that his beard grow while his time is there, but Maxwell not have anything done to him. If we followed that standard, Maxwell wouldve been turning into dust while he was on the throne, not only happening once the player frees him, so I would say Wilson could have been there longer
I've wanted a lore explanation video for don't starve for so long and I'm so happy this popped up in my recommended
I love the commentary and editing style you've got going on dude, it never fails to make me smile. Keep up the good work man! ^w^
I’m really glad I watched this video before watching the Wolfgang one. I had completely forgotten about the lore with the train. Then when I watched the Wolfgang one right after my head exploded, and now I’m walking around headless. Thanks OrangE!
There's a theme of desperation in every character in the don't starve universe. here are my theories about what everyone's motive is.
Wilson : desperate to make a ground breaking invention
Willow : desperate for a home
Wendy : desperate to get her sister back
Wolfgang : desperate to be The strongman
Woodie : desperate to rid his curse
Wigfrid : desperate to be in the light again
Webber : desperate to turn back to his old self
Maxwell : desperate to be a wide sensation of a magician
Winona : probably has no motive. but I can say that she wants to get her sister out of the constant
Wickerbottom : desperate to discover knowledge and publish books to succeed
Warly : desperate to get recipes that would satisfy his mother
Wagstaff : although unknown I do believe that he's desperate to harness powers that are beyond human comprehension
Wormwood : although a resident of the moon we can assume that he's desperate to be loved by others
Wortox : desperate to do the good (although he defied his superior)
Wes : no motive. literally got sucked in due to bad luck
Wanda : no motive. she entered by ripping time and space
Wurt : I don't know she's a constant resident considered that is. maybe cursed by the gnaw and was desperate to go back?
That's it. that's all I have.
Winona is super desperate to get Charlie back in her short. Wanda is backing out of her end of a deal she made with the nightmare creatures (or an entity related to them) so she's desperate to run away from them and any consequences they bring
You forgot Walter! But it seems they didnt give him a good story either and thats a pity.. he seems to be delusional but thats about it. I REALLY hope he gets a rework too since although he is functional in-game, he is lacking in personality beyond being a boy scout with a dog. Thats literally it.
Im choosing to write the rest in another comment. These are just suggestions for walters character. Willow has a scout uniform in one of her early sketches. I think it would be really cool to see them meet and bond just by coincidence as scouts. Perhaps they get lost in the woods together. Also he is canadian since he is able to find woodies house on foot. As a black canadian he either had a free family and did scouts for fun or escaped from his "owners" to another state in canada and was taken in by the scouts. If he was indeed apart from his family thats something he could bond over with willow. If klei wants some easy story for walter and/or willow, they could easily write their adventures together :)
@@thedistinguished5255 Walter literally gotten kidnapped by the shadow hands with no actual reason? I can just assume he's desperate to find out what is the myth about a were-beaver
Webber probably wpuldve been desperate to turn into a human at first but from dialogue in the constant, it reveal he doesny seem to mind it that much and doesnt really mind at all, so I wouldnt Call him desperate now
I think Wendy's short is heavily implying that Abigail fell off the cliff near their family home, most likely exactly how we see in the short with her playing on some rocks and tripping backwards, all while trying to coax her sister to join her. And the flowers had some sort of significance to them before this. But Wendy was so traumatized by this event that she keeps reliving it in her head and imagines a way in which her sister _didn't_ actually die. But she's always forced to acknowledge reality when her father calls her and only her home for the day.

4:13 the postage stamp has a cancellation mark (the rubber stamp applied over it), which is affixed by the postal service during processing to indicate the stamp has been used.
cancellation mark?
@@orangedontstarve The faint red ink stamp over the top of the postage stamp that reads NORTH-something I can't make out, with the squiggly lines. In the US that would be applied by the US Postal Service. It's a minor detail, but it means that the letter was sent and processed by the postal service. It's intended to prevent stamps from being reused.
im only about a third of the way through, but i just wanted to say that your editing is excellent and super charming
