After playing Susie homemaker for the last episode and realizing we're halfway through the series, it's time to get a move on. It's time to pack up our s**t and get into high gear if we're ever going to make it to Desolation Point - the next major map eastward. With that said, welcome back to Pwnery's Penny Arcade, and my continuing coverage of the Long Dark's Survival Sandbox.

So today what I plan on doing is venturing around the perimeter of the Quonset garage, loot what ever I can, and start to prepare for the trip east through Crumbling highway. By the end of this episode, I realize that I may have painted myself into a corner and making an executive decision off-camera.

If you'd like to get a copy of this game for yourself, you can pick it up fairly inexpensively over on steam at the link below.

Parts of the proceeds go towards Canadian wildlife and forestry conservation too - a noble effort for a game developer. Keep the wild, look wild I suppose. I can appreciate that having frequented Kodiak Island, Alaska a few times in my life (heck, I may retire there some day).

So as for my video series, I'll spare the storyline mode since it's been covered at length and ad nauseum by many gamers and reviewers alike, but as a gamer guy, a gun guy, a tinkerer, and an outdoorsman, my inner geek would love to share with you the sandbox survival mode in this game. The experiences you have in this game are not guaranteed to be a survival technique mind you, however some of the basics of survival are very well covered in it - such as basic orienteering, and weight management, and the importance of watching your caloric intake - real "common sense" kinda stuff if you ever find yourself out in the wild. I'll take you as far as I can in a 5-part mini-series and hopefully get us at least off of one map into the next area.

All that aside, it's time to sit back, relax, and enjoy the show. If you're new to my channel, hello, and welcome! If you're a returning subscriber, welcome back. Also, if it's not too much trouble, drop me a like or comment on the new intro splash screen as I try to hone it down to something that encapsulates the entire channel. If you came for one of these playlists I do, feel free to check out the others and see if any of those also tickle your fancy.

Thanks for visiting my little corner of Youtube and the internet, and enjoy.
