Echo of the Wilds is a puzzly narrativy adventure, featuring randomised wilderness survival. Finding yourself in mysterious forests you must unfurl a spiritual tale of solace before the unending winter consumes all.
I think new altars become unlocked as you learn more items. So if you learn a certain amount from the Spring altar, the Summer one will unlock, etc. (someone correct me if I'm wrong).Sounds like you're at a point in the game where it may be difficult to survive the story mode. But you may be able to make your next run a little bit easier. It's important to be very aggressive about discovering new places and building tools/furniture/clothing early in the game.
You want to do as much as possible in a small amount of days at the beginning to give you time to do some proper exploring/solving puzzles later in the game.Some general tips that help me early in the game:-Stock up on more wood/berries than you need and drop them all at the home camp. You only need one woodlet each night for a proper fire. Also remember that picked berries only last for a few days.-Try to chop down trees with fruits in them to help recover hunger/thirst after the tree is knocked down.-Gold nuggets and gold dust generally give you better items at the altars. Early in the game I like to visit the altars completely loaded with berries/gold (all 5 slots) a few times.-Purity flowers (those white flowers you occasionally stumble upon) are very useful. They can be used indirectly to increase the amount of times you can die, and for saving. Hint: bring them to the Endly Altar (AKA the place where you go to save the game).-Stock up on milky plants from the highlands; they will cure you if you're sick.-If you find a flinty rock (a sharp black rock) in the crystal streams, take one and bring it back to the campsite.
You will eventually need it.-If you see random monuments/statues while exploring (not sure how else to describe them) with pegs/lines on top of them, take a picture with your phone or a camera, it may come in handy later for a puzzle. To be clear, I don't mean there's a way for the character to take pictures in the game- I mean literally take your phone out of your pocket and take a picture.-You will need lots of blank parchments. They're so annoyingly important.
As you discover lots of new areas and new tools, you will need to forget some in order to find more. If you 'forget' a tool or location while there is a blank parchment in your inventory, your character will ask if you want to write it down. The parchment recipe can be found in the summer altar, I think (please correct me if I'm wrong). You need fibrous plants from the swamp. One other way to get parchment- if you get letters in glass bottles, just leave them on the ground in your home camp after reading them.
If it rains, the next day, the parchments will be completely blank. This is bad if it's actually something you needed that you wrote down, but great if it's just a journal page that you've already read.-There are three basic tools which are crucial to surviving this game: the axe, hammer, and shovel. There are two ways to gather the rocks needed to build them. The normal, long way that everyone uses, is to use little rocks from the streams to smash bigger rocks in the highlands. In my opinion, this ways sucks and takes forever. My preferred way is to find the Rocky Mountains early in the game.
To get there, you need to solve a puzzle involving three small monuments that you can spin, revealing different numbers. Have you seen similar monuments elsewhere??-At one point in the game, you will wake up with an amulet obtained from a dream. If you scout while this amulet is in your inventory, you will find places that you need to go to progress the story mode of the game.-Crafting a mud pit at your camp site can be helpful for saving time. You'll be able to plant two items, which will prevent them from decomposing, and you can use all your decomposing crap to grow more. For example, if you plant one milky plant, and the other spot is empty, eventually, the other spot will also grow a milky plant.
This can be sped up using all your rotting garbage at the home camp. If you're playing the game aggressively like you should be, gathering stuff constantly, you will inevitably wind up with a bunch of this stuff.-Learn to build a rabbit snare and hunt some rabbits. You'll need their fur. Also, they're a good source of food.-You will find a 'communicative device' somewhat early in the game (a cellphone). Using it will take you to 'The Further'.
There is mysterious chest in The Further where you can store three items. These items can travel across different saved games! So if you're struggling in one saved game and about to die, there are two things you can do. Gather helpful items from another game and store them in the box, or, before you die, place your most useful items into this box for your next playthrough, giving you a slight advantage.
But beware- you will be very badly poisoned after moving items back and forth from this chest, so either have a milky plant handy, have full health, or just be prepared to die.

Along with that, I cannot figure out for my life how to get more recipes. I'm kinda stumped there.

Originally posted by:Thats how i do It on my first day, the forest you can use the spikey things and eat berries because its spring and they are really abundant.Wow, I never thought of that.
That's pretty clever. I don't know for sure if I'd do it because I like to save lots of berries for the altars. But still, that's a cool idea that hadn't occurred to me. Yeah, Its good to keep to logs because when you get the chest you can store berries for longer! I Think at least, oh and red mushrooms last about 15 days, just something I Learned.
Nowhere in is the planet's dark influence stronger than in the lower wilds. What begins as ringing ears and a cold unease can eventually cripple and dominate an unprepared Sith; weaker minds can be twisted and broken in a matter of hours, leaving soldiers weeping in the sand or slaves frothing, ready to kill.The source of this corrupting power is unkown. Some believe it is the residual dark energy of the ancient Sith species, while others insist the canyon serves as a focal point for the combined hatred and strength of the entombed Dark Lords. Some even hope the madenss is caused by an artifact buried beneath the sands, waiting for a Sith to claim it's power.When the Sith discovered Dromund Kaas, it was an untamed jungle world, uninhabited by any sentient species. Over centuries, gleaming and orderly Imperial cities have spread to cover most of the planet, but stretches of harsh, untamed wilderness remain.
Populated by violent predators such as the gundark and jurgoran, the wilds separate Kaas City from its spaceport and are best navigated at a safe distance, by speeder, rather than on foot.
