Bees only gain an additional 10 damage, including the Bee Queen, so things are not as extreme as we imagined and that kinda sucks actually. One time sanity hits are still a thing all around which is still kinda odd even if they make sense at the end of the day. No, other survivors cannot use Walter's slingshot. Figured that would be obvious considering how making it available to everyone would defeat the purpose. That said, everyone can use the portable tent which is nice. Campfire stories stack and apparently don't get interrupted in caves (likely will be fixed eventually) so have fun there, but just add this to the list of sanity things that Walter does better than Maxwell - a once, literal God... He apparently cannot adopt any other pet which is actually a nice touch. Woby be jealous! :D There are some nuances with Walter obviously, some of which I simply did not wish to spoil cause they may be among the best that he has to offer and discovering them yourselves will be a breath of fresh air. To provide some hints however, perhaps eating some pink stuff and examining particular, fiery and or beaver-ery characters could be fun. As for how I feel about him overall, at least initially, is that he is a beginner friendly character, a support and easy-mode engaged all around - we all guessed that one back when we first heard about him. I am all for something like that and I am happy to see many taking to him already, that said I still feel like he is all over the place. His perks are thrown together, the ones that should feel natural (the ones connected to his scouting background) don't and the sanity thing is random, far reaching and just doesn't fit well - it's like they forced it all. I wholeheartedly believe that they could've made him a beginner friendly character while maintaining his theme of being a scout with survivalist training all the while just giving him an affinity to ranged combat. I have details and have shared them before obviously however if folk want me to take him and darn near completely alter him with my ideas then perhaps I can make another discussion video - let me know. For now, enjoy him - even if he is way too easy for some of us out here. My only concern is that eventually he will get easy for most and then be left in the dust by the rest of the crew. Not only that, easy characters lose their appeal quickly once the initial hype wears down... I hope not and we shall see cause I do enjoy him and Woby, I think they can fit. They just need some tweaks... perhaps more than some but what have you. That slingshot ammo though, the potential is pretty high.
@@skinnyboi8937 Depends though. Fear helped you to distinguish danger and harm if you dont let it consume you. Fearless mixed with ignorance only leads to harm. Like the old saying, "if you play with fire.."
If you also didn't noticed, Woby is like a guardian because she knows everything whats dangerous or not in the Constant and Walter is like "Is that dangerous, Woby?" I love this detail alot!
All of them do. You might say Maxwell does not, but his real name is william carter, and his debugspawn name is Waxwell. So, yeah, all of them starts with W
A good perk that would fit in with his "scoutness" would be an increased map discovery. Let him see farther than the rest, map out more area in fewer steps. Make him an actual scout. Just an idea.
"Walter’s fearlessness no longer prevents sanity loss while equipping Night Armor and Dark Sword. It was not intended to protect him from the effects of shadow magic." - Klei
The Beard 777, yeah I know but, I at least wanted some of your ideas on why Walter wanted to find the Werebeaver. My idea is that someone had noticed a lack of Evergreens in Canada and caught sight of the Werebeaver. What n Walter’s map, it said “cursed.” That leads me to believe that someone possibly could have SEEN Woodie transform.
If Walter is immune to darkness sanity loss then shouldn't Wendy who's comfortable in darkness gain small sanity at night? Or around ghosts? I dunno I'm with you on doesn't feel right.
walter doesnt even know that the things around him are dangerous so he doesnt care, maxwell on the otherhand knows all about just how deadly the things around him are and that he can do near as much as he once could
Personally, I wish that he has his sanity also tied to naughtiness. It would contribute to the character, and be a good way to introduce the mechanic to new players. IDK.
So I guess he was looking for a were beaver (unaware that it was Woodie) and went to his house. I guess that's also how Woodie got taken to the constant; he turned on the radio and got sucked in. That's just what I think though Also, I'm glad I now have use for marble since I don't use it for anything much
What I found interesting about Woby was she follows you as a ghost (I’m not sure if this is a glitch or not) so I kinda guess it’s neat following your friends as a ghost for a short time to give them a Chester
Walter's short finally gives me the WOODIE LORE I so badly wanted! Also, I see myself playing a lot of Walter, he's very support focused and that's my kind of gameplay.
Mmh i dont think this new character is beginner friendly, yes he havent problems with sanity but learning how to maintain stats in general is the best for beginners so i suggest you to use wilson because he havent any buff and any debuff
He is both an insanely beginner friendly character and not at the same time. Not sure if that was intentional (pretty sure it was) however if so then I believe they went about accomplishing that in the totally wrong way.
Wendy is a really beginner friendly character. I begun with her because I needed to get used to the fighting mechanics and Abigail really helped with farming spiders and such.
I also dont think he's beginner. Simple maybe but I just wasted lots of time trying to make him work for me and he doesnt. No sanity drain sounds good on paper but we are going to fight and 1 hit will drain your sanity forever on 20dmg if you dont heal. Slingshot is great vs 1ennemy. It is way too slow to deal with multiple ennemies. And because any hits gets you insane you have to deal with nightmare creatures all the time. I dont know I was excited for him, passed 5 days looking for the orb to switch to him. And I really really hate him, I did try the ruins with him. Damn! Now trying to gather a purple gem to try wolfgang instead. But keep wasting my time cuz I keep dying. Im no pro though. I started a month ago. That's why I think he is not that noob friendly.
I love the character a lot, his design and some of his mechanics really make him adorable. According to his sanity mechanics, I guess he doesn't get any kind of sanity drain while wearing dark armor or dark sword right ?
Also great video! I've been watching a lot of your videos of don't starve, I've started the game during lockdown and damm it's so cool, I love the visual style and the lore and how deep and imaginative the dev are ! Having good tutos like yours were a pretty good thing haha

Walter is everything I want to be. Im often very easily frightened and I dont have very strong mental health but Ive always wanted to be like Walter. Having a constant companion around, being able to shoot from long range, not getting scared of everything, being able to talk for hours on end and it gives a positive affect, having freckles. He’s literally everything I want that I don’t have.
@@TheBeard777 i think the point was to give players who play "Dont starve" character that trivializes combat to actually focus on not starving ... because so far i have NEVER starved in this game, it was always something munching on my face that got me ...
its quite simple, he covers game that is kinda on the fringe of gaming scene, im quite surprised he has as many subs as he does but i agree he deserves more, if he branched into something more "mainstream" i think he could become pretty successful
I dont generally play too much dont starve together these days, but I am still a huge fan of the series and tune into your videos quite frequently. Thanks for the uploads chief, you make great content. Also, this character seems pretty strong to me, the drawbacks seem like they could be pretty rough but in the right hands, he seems like he could be a monster.
I really love his character, so odd and innocent, really cute! I also think he is well thought and that his sanity loss relates to him being hurt due to the fact that he seems quite sensitive and being damaged superficially has an effect on him internally (psychologically).
@@Asghaad that's just a lame thing to do. buffing characters with mods and making them OP doesn't sound fun in a game like DST. its supposed to be hard and unforgiving. you do you though.
I am so happy he has my birthday! Hes an Aries!!! He reminds me of my brother (a soon to be eagle scout) and myself(not afraid of most things expect pain!) This is so cool I cried.
The fact that he's not survivalist makes him a perfect scout I think. With the exception of Eagle scouts most of the ones I knew, myself included, only really learned how to make a campfire, tie a few knots, and generally just enjoyed being outside. We'd never last a day in the woods with nothing.
Ngl I love him so much (always wanted a ranged character) but he kinda feels half-baked as the rest of his kit is way too many thrown together bonuses and downsides
I love this character! Even if he seems unbalanced, that's ok, some characters can be easier than others. I love his design and perks, and his downsides. Haven't gone on DST in a while but I might head back on.
I actually feel like Walter's Character makes sense. He is naturally fearless because he's a kid. This is also why his sanity is fragile, kids tend to get scared easier and don't like getting hurt. I think kids also don't care much for clothes, which is why Walter is not affected by them. His allergy to bees is also really cool and adds character to Walter.
i love that he is a fearless scout boy and i think its hilarious that he isnt scared of the constant/can use dark magic without being scared when even maxwell cant. (this doesent affect gameplay anyway i promise you will be more insane than most characters as walter when you actually need the sanity.
Well, Maxwell was once the king of the world, and has had his mind consumed by the shadow powers of the throne. And now, reduced to the status of a regular survivor, and facing all the dangers he once created, i think it makes sense for him to be afraid of it
Unlocking characters in Don't Starve:* you need to be good at game,survive a lot days or complete hard challenges* Unlocking characters in DST:PAY PAY PAY PAY PAY PAY PAY PAY PAY PAY
@@mr.sentryanddispenser Literally every character is free in DST. If you're going to talk shit about something at least know what the fuck you're talking about.
@@lightningonlycommentsonce5824 Well if you wanna play with Wortox or Wurt you have to pay for them,or unlock them by waeving so not all characters are free
I feel like they added too many abilities. Like, the campfire cooking, the no sanity clothing, sometimes the bee thing, I feel like he has too much to go with him. Like, imagine if Wilson was made today. He’d probably have something like ‘increased science crafting speed’ and ‘knows some of the science machine recipies’ or ‘can groom his beard if he has one to gain sanity’. I love klei a lot, but I feel like we haven’t had a simple character in a while.
What’s interesting is that he knows about the werebeaver! This kid is my favorite character now, for some reason. I wonder if he knows one of the characters, hence why he knows about werebeavers. He doesn’t know about the radio, but he knows about the werebeaver, which is strange. Who lived in the cabin, that ‘might have answers’? How would the kid know about them??
Willy the Conservative perks: literal revolver. wont use anything other than guns for attack bullets are made using gunpowder gold and flint. idk what to make another downside other than not using other weapons.
I do believe that Walter has the chance to not only be a unique and exciting character, but one that brings challenge and a different play style. Although Wendy already has the perk of being weak, Walter would benefit from a severe damage reduction to his melee swings. This would show the new players how Walter should be played; as someone who should stay back and not attract a lot of attention. You do bring up a good point about how his disability to gain sanity from clothes is redundant seeing how he would just gain sanity from sleep, but I believe they should make this an even more important part of his kit. Sleeping is widely ignored in DST, and if he gained more health and sanity from doing it, it would not only give purpose to sleeping, but also to his portable tent. Make this perk more drastic and make it the ONLY way he can gain sanity (Of course not including campfire stories.) This would make being hit be much more of a detriment, seeing how he could no longer eat cooked cactus and some pierogis to completely ignore his downside. Walter should be classified as the class that is a good team player, but one that needs to stay cautious.
The idea that he could wield a dark sword with no penalties to sanity while maintaining damage levels defeats the purpose of expanding on a ranged character. The idea that all his sanity stuff just seems so forced leaves an off feeling about his character overall. The idea that next to nothing about his obvious scouting background was expanded upon enough to mean anything shows a lack of thought, creativity and relevance. It's strange, I like him and the concept but almost every bit of him missed the mark by just a hair however each miss adds up to, well, this.
@@TheBeard777 stun rounds, fire rounds, confusion rounds, blind rounds, hell why not lightning rounds (hit the target which gets struck by the lightning with slight delay), poison rounds, maybe some crazier things like shadow rounds (target hit gets attacked by shadow creatures), bee rounds (you know like bee trap just in projectile form) etc etc
it's always fun to imagine that walter is literally forming shit in his hands slowly to make a ball and then loading it into his slingshot and then pulling it back
I wonder... In the trailer for "the fearless" he's looking for the wharebever, so if you get woody and turn him in to the wharebever, what whould the scout say? P.s. don't know much about the multiplayer thing so hope you can examine other characters.
I just recently got the game so now I’m going through all the characters to see which one I should try first, and this guy definitely seems like a good pick
He doesn't seem like a survivalist because everyone is already used to being survivalists in-game already! The fact that he's over-equipped actually lends to the fact that he's a survivalist, prepared for danger from the very start!
I've actually got a lot of love for Walter. The slingshot is incredibly useful but ammo isn't free, rocks are practically useless and it's far too easy to tear through a stack of rounds. Gold is easy to come by but it does rely on frequent pig king visits, marble trees are a pain to grow so you have to use the ammo sparingly. It would be good to see a bonus from eating specific "campfire foods" like berries and jerky. Trail Mix as a favourite food is a nice touch and the bonus hunger is handy, I find it's difficult to make a lot of it though. The portable tent roll is extremely underrated, food is almost never an issue early on so it's free health and sanity which Walter suffers from without armour, it also takes up a slot constantly so it has a cost.
This new character is just amazing. I never thought that Klei would ever introduce a god damn ranger into the game. I´d just change a little thing: Instead of not getting any sanity boosts for wearing certain clothes, it would be better if those could only make Walter´s sanity stable when below 100% HP, so the player is not forced to cook health-recover food all day to make sanity stop draining.
No joke. I just finished watching your salt vid before stubbling across this one, I didn't know there was a knew character. So imagine my surprise while eating spicy, salted beef jerky then seeing this. Beef jerk is my favorite food and Walter ate and used some to befriend Woby...these two are now on my top 5 favorite DST characters list.
He is amazing for a person like me because when I play with friends most of the time I stay behind and help with other stuff while they kite the big bads. (Like Winona's Catapults and Etc) Its because I am really bad at kiting, anyways now I can stay behind and shoot them.
Bees only gain an additional 10 damage, including the Bee Queen, so things are not as extreme as we imagined and that kinda sucks actually.
One time sanity hits are still a thing all around which is still kinda odd even if they make sense at the end of the day.

I play with someone who doesn't like fighting , so this is perfect for her! Excited to play!
I am so happy he has my birthday! Hes an Aries!!! He reminds me of my brother (a soon to be eagle scout) and myself(not afraid of most things expect pain!)
This is so cool I cried.
Walter seems like a character that you would stay at your base with and your friends go out.
Poop pellets deagro enemies
Monster Hunter players: Welcome to the club.
I searched for this I knew it would be here somewhere 😆
The fact that he's not survivalist makes him a perfect scout I think. With the exception of Eagle scouts most of the ones I knew, myself included, only really learned how to make a campfire, tie a few knots, and generally just enjoyed being outside. We'd never last a day in the woods with nothing.
Now I’m waiting for there to be a “Wadlow”
What would wadlow be able to do?
Congrats on 100k
Thank you!
I wanna see that lines about Woody and his werebeaver form from Walter
I was like "oh there is a new caracter in dst"
and immediatly after
"BEARD I WANNA KNOW EVERYTHING ABOUT HIM"
Ngl I love him so much (always wanted a ranged character) but he kinda feels half-baked as the rest of his kit is way too many thrown together bonuses and downsides
I really like the idea of this character! I may jump back into the game to use him!
Poop pellets de-aggro mobs.
Yeah, nothing calms me down and makes me not want to hurt someone than being pelted by manure. /sarcasm
I always feel calmed when someone throws poop at me.... Not
I mean would you want to attack something throwing poop at you, and have more poop thrown or just leave.
@@bigkirbyhj666
..... okay, valid point. It might be a 50/50 chance of 'get the heck away' or 'hurt them lots'
insert Monster Hunter joke here
@@Babbleplay while you get kited while more poop is flung at you.
Man he really is fearless, he has no hesitation with trespassing.
I love this character! Even if he seems unbalanced, that's ok, some characters can be easier than others. I love his design and perks, and his downsides. Haven't gone on DST in a while but I might head back on.
As long as you enjoy him that is all that matters.
I actually feel like Walter's Character makes sense. He is naturally fearless because he's a kid. This is also why his sanity is fragile, kids tend to get scared easier and don't like getting hurt. I think kids also don't care much for clothes, which is why Walter is not affected by them. His allergy to bees is also really cool and adds character to Walter.
:)
This Character is broken as hell ❤️ Love it. Thank you Beard
And as long as you enjoy it that is all that matters!
Hey Beard are you planning on streaming Hollowknight? I think that's something a lot of the people who want you to continue Hollowknight would like.
We'll start streaming new games eventually, was going to last month until we took an hiatus.
i love that he is a fearless scout boy and i think its hilarious that he isnt scared of the constant/can use dark magic without being scared when even maxwell cant. (this doesent affect gameplay anyway i promise you will be more insane than most characters as walter when you actually need the sanity.
Well, Maxwell was once the king of the world, and has had his mind consumed by the shadow powers of the throne. And now, reduced to the status of a regular survivor, and facing all the dangers he once created, i think it makes sense for him to be afraid of it
Walter Would be GREAT for exploring underground
He's a monster at it, with Woby's help to boot.
@@TheBeard777 warlter vs shadow boss
Walter vs nightmare fissures😂
Now this might just be my imagination but it felt to me like he also had the same campfire cook speed increase that Willow has.
Don't starve together: WE GOT A NEW CHARACTERS MEET WALTER AND WOBY
Don't starve: we got Maxwell
Unlocking characters in Don't Starve:* you need to be good at game,survive a lot days or complete hard challenges*
Unlocking characters in DST:PAY PAY PAY PAY PAY PAY PAY PAY PAY PAY
@@mr.sentryanddispenser Literally every character is free in DST. If you're going to talk shit about something at least know what the fuck you're talking about.
@@lightningonlycommentsonce5824 Well if you wanna play with Wortox or Wurt you have to pay for them,or unlock them by waeving so not all characters are free
I can see Walter, Wigfrid and Wortox being a really good combo team
This entire character feels like a mod, the character design and all his attributes.
Nice taken comment
Wormwood in final bloom stage: *chased by bee*
Walter: “why do I hear boss music?”
Walter sings when he eats glommers gut’s
Pinned comment.
Also something else, i forgot doe
Why XD
@@mistasfavouritememory2966 tallbird egg?
@@flamboyant_wolf yes tallbirdeggs work I think
I feel like they added too many abilities. Like, the campfire cooking, the no sanity clothing, sometimes the bee thing, I feel like he has too much to go with him. Like, imagine if Wilson was made today. He’d probably have something like ‘increased science crafting speed’ and ‘knows some of the science machine recipies’ or ‘can groom his beard if he has one to gain sanity’. I love klei a lot, but I feel like we haven’t had a simple character in a while.
What’s interesting is that he knows about the werebeaver! This kid is my favorite character now, for some reason. I wonder if he knows one of the characters, hence why he knows about werebeavers. He doesn’t know about the radio, but he knows about the werebeaver, which is strange. Who lived in the cabin, that ‘might have answers’? How would the kid know about them??
this character is literally everything I want in a Don't Starve character he is so perfect and beautiful
The first character to have an actual ranged weapon (no the forge, boomerangs and staves dont count) wait until the modding community makes *G U N S*
Willy the Conservative
perks: literal revolver.
wont use anything other than guns for attack
bullets are made using gunpowder gold and flint.
idk what to make another downside other than not using other weapons.
I do believe that Walter has the chance to not only be a unique and exciting character, but one that brings challenge and a different play style. Although Wendy already has the perk of being weak, Walter would benefit from a severe damage reduction to his melee swings. This would show the new players how Walter should be played; as someone who should stay back and not attract a lot of attention. You do bring up a good point about how his disability to gain sanity from clothes is redundant seeing how he would just gain sanity from sleep, but I believe they should make this an even more important part of his kit. Sleeping is widely ignored in DST, and if he gained more health and sanity from doing it, it would not only give purpose to sleeping, but also to his portable tent. Make this perk more drastic and make it the ONLY way he can gain sanity (Of course not including campfire stories.) This would make being hit be much more of a detriment, seeing how he could no longer eat cooked cactus and some pierogis to completely ignore his downside. Walter should be classified as the class that is a good team player, but one that needs to stay cautious.
The idea that he could wield a dark sword with no penalties to sanity while maintaining damage levels defeats the purpose of expanding on a ranged character.
The idea that all his sanity stuff just seems so forced leaves an off feeling about his character overall.
The idea that next to nothing about his obvious scouting background was expanded upon enough to mean anything shows a lack of thought, creativity and relevance.
It's strange, I like him and the concept but almost every bit of him missed the mark by just a hair however each miss adds up to, well, this.
I would love teleporting rounds or turf round you need turf and and rocks and it would stun enimes
I was also surprised that they were no stun rounds or mechanic of any sort, seems appropriate for a slingshot.
@@TheBeard777 stun rounds, fire rounds, confusion rounds, blind rounds, hell why not lightning rounds (hit the target which gets struck by the lightning with slight delay), poison rounds, maybe some crazier things like shadow rounds (target hit gets attacked by shadow creatures), bee rounds (you know like bee trap just in projectile form) etc etc
@@Asghaad there are darts for those
it's always fun to imagine that walter is literally forming shit in his hands slowly to make a ball and then loading it into his slingshot and then pulling it back
I wonder... In the trailer for "the fearless" he's looking for the wharebever, so if you get woody and turn him in to the wharebever, what whould the scout say?
P.s. don't know much about the multiplayer thing so hope you can examine other characters.
Me to i wanna know what wagstaff thinks about wx78
The night armor now does drain sanity
Yup, they hotfixed him.
The Beard 777 did you notice any other hot fix aside from that one?
Weird.. Even though I watched the video already, they gave me the ad..
What?
I just recently got the game so now I’m going through all the characters to see which one I should try first, and this guy definitely seems like a good pick
Look I love Walter but he seems like a beta character, he's way to unbalanced. The buffs out do the debuffs by way too big of a margin
But buffs outdoing debuffs is a thing with most DST characters...
Quick tip-ish thingy: Walter can use the Melty Marbles trinket as ammo, dealing 60.25 damage.
Saying "Hollow knight" until Beard finishes it. Day 116
One thing I love about him is I can move the statue pieces with EASE
He doesn't seem like a survivalist because everyone is already used to being survivalists in-game already! The fact that he's over-equipped actually lends to the fact that he's a survivalist, prepared for danger from the very start!
You are a awesome teacher!!! For dst 👌
Glad you think so!
Walter: haha monster sanity and darkness drain go bye-bye monsters and Darkness: noooo you can’t just not lose sanity by being near us
I've actually got a lot of love for Walter. The slingshot is incredibly useful but ammo isn't free, rocks are practically useless and it's far too easy to tear through a stack of rounds. Gold is easy to come by but it does rely on frequent pig king visits, marble trees are a pain to grow so you have to use the ammo sparingly. It would be good to see a bonus from eating specific "campfire foods" like berries and jerky. Trail Mix as a favourite food is a nice touch and the bonus hunger is handy, I find it's difficult to make a lot of it though. The portable tent roll is extremely underrated, food is almost never an issue early on so it's free health and sanity which Walter suffers from without armour, it also takes up a slot constantly so it has a cost.
This new character is just amazing. I never thought that Klei would ever introduce a god damn ranger into the game. I´d just change a little thing: Instead of not getting any sanity boosts for wearing certain clothes, it would be better if those could only make Walter´s sanity stable when below 100% HP, so the player is not forced to cook health-recover food all day to make sanity stop draining.
It iis like that now. His sanity dops down to a minimum amount depending on how much health is missing.
He is the extra op version of Wheeler.
As always thank you beard for the video, I really enjoy this character!
Glad you like him, keep on keeping on!
I find it quite funny how i literally got a walter ad before this
No joke. I just finished watching your salt vid before stubbling across this one, I didn't know there was a knew character. So imagine my surprise while eating spicy, salted beef jerky then seeing this. Beef jerk is my favorite food and Walter ate and used some to befriend Woby...these two are now on my top 5 favorite DST characters list.
I was so confused when I was going insane while using Walter. Later I did research and figured out that he goes insane while hurt lol
amazing video
Glad you think so!
I loved everything about him
And that's all that matters. Keep on keeping on friend.
awee he has a puppy and tent, love it
You can now have 2 basic hutches or his lesser half Chester at once.
Omg Walters beady eyes when looking around when insane is very creepy
As someone who was once a scout, I can confirm that this is 100% accurate
Walter has come the closest to ending my DST playstyle of ‘Only Wendy, never anyone else’
He is amazing for a person like me because when I play with friends most of the time I stay behind and help with other stuff while they kite the big bads. (Like Winona's Catapults and Etc) Its because I am really bad at kiting, anyways now I can stay behind and shoot them.
