The Long Dark: Wintermute Ep. 1 | My First Steps into the Unknown (Blind Playthrough) | #1
7🧊 Welcome to the Cold. Stay for the Story.
This is part 1 of my blind playthrough of The Long Dark: Wintermute, where I explore the frozen wilderness with no prior knowledge — just instinct, immersion, and a will to survive.
In this episode:
🗺️ We wake up in the wreckage, disoriented and freezing, with no idea what lies ahead. BOOM we flash back 12 hours! We wake up in our hanger and find our old but beautiful plane. After a short nap we are woken by the ringing of the phone. While taking the call our wife shows up after many years wanting a lift out to the middle of nowhere. She's caring a metal case and is not will to discuss the content or the reason for the trip, but we agree to take her. Mid flight we get hit will wild lights!!! We lose all power and the aircraft goes down! BOOM back to where we started, and where our adventure begins. We bandage up, survive the night and climb our way out. The aircraft is wrecked but our wife is nowhere to be found... but the case was left behind. Like a good bloodhound we track her to Milton, a small forgotten town in the mountains where we almost met our end by the hand of Grey Mother. She may be blind but has no issue with shooting you. We agree to help each other... food and wood for information on Astrid. With that agreement we start to explore the town of Milton!
🎮 Sit back, get cozy, and let's experience the solitude together. Whether you're here for the survival or the storytelling, you're always welcome in the Lounge.
