I'm at 4:40 right now and figured I would drop this story for you Fooster. When I went to the Niabi Zoo I spoke to a zookeeper about how strong the Orangutans were. When they were reconstructing the orangutans exhibit they were using massive torque drivers to drive 12" screws through logs and into the walls of the exhibit and to fasten them to one another, the construction workers didn't realize that they left the screw and lug nut ends exposed in certain areas and the next day more then 90% of their work was undone. They ended up learning that the orangutans thought it was fun to unscrew the lug nuts by hand and toss them around... the lug nuts were driven into concrete with over 500ft/lbs of torque, and the orangutans used their fingers to unscrew them like it was nothing... apes are nothing to joke with man.
Big apes like gorilla and orangutan are in top 5 or something in mammals world in terms of strength to body mass ratio. Big apes strength really are no joke. There is a tiktok video of an adult male orangutan escaped from the captivity and causing a chaos in a town. It pulled, dragged and tossed away a scooter like it was some plastic chair. My anxiety is skyrocketing at the fact a silverback gorilla is capable to tear a human like a sheet of cardboard.
Fooster you have to eat the honey in front of your clan members for them to learn what to do with it. So your mate will just hold that honey until you show her to eat it.
Fooster, if you are wondering how to give birth, you need to be the pregnant hominid or its mate and go to the bedding. It should be one of the options from there.
Small tip: the eye in the bottom left hand corner will grey out when you are climbing trees. That indicates you are Hidden. When it turns yellow and starts flashing a red ring around it, it indicates youve been spotted. If its Solid White, you are Safe and Can Be Spotted.
3rd day of telling fooster, you can heal bleed wounds by stripping horsetail and mashing the leaves with rock as well. Also if you break a rock and make it into a cutter you can sharpen sticks faster, make a cutter and keep it in your camp so that you can get a sharp stick whenever you leave camp
@@thefoosterchannel you can also use rocks as weapons but yeah sticks are better. You can use the grinder to make a paste of the cold protection fruit and that makes it easier to get warm rather than eat 3-4 of them
I love this series!! Love the fact that fooster is as much of a noob with this game as I am...feels like when I used to play a new video game with my best friend...discovering it together. I enjoy that a lot :)
Hey, fooster, I'm loving the series but just a tip for how to counterattack the animals you gotta hold the prime button during the slow-mo part and while holding either a stick or rock you release the prime button once you see that screen go green and there's also a slight sound that you can hear to know when to release and if you do the counterattack correctly you will see your ape hit the animal with the weapon it has in hand.
@@bliss3599 sorry lol i get caught up trying to explain that I forget to use them. my bad I'm just super into this series and fooster makes it so enjoyable and immersive (:
Some helpful tips: Don't evolve until you reach your 3rd or 4th generation, have at least 4-6(or more) kids in your tribe to avoid problems later on and special stones can be given to any of the Apes you find in the wild to befriend them immediately.
If I had not been already a subscriber, I would have subscribed now. People who call for no "backseat gaming", "armchair directing", or whatever you call suggestions, who at the same time google their answer to not appear clueless, are literally shutting down community interaction for selfish reasons. You do a perfect 180 and make your community feel involved, and your gameplay delivery atop of that is just delightful.
Not sure if you already knew, but you can swing through the foliage. It takes a bit of practice, but once you know how to time it it's really useful to cover greater distance in the trees!
Now you're making progress! haha More tips: almost everything can me modified with tools or hands, try it always with each different item, switch hands, inspect, etc; modified basalt is the strongest rock and along obsidian is better for fighting, modify sticks, open coconuts, cut meat..., granite can be modified into grinders for some plants; unlock communication neurons so you can give orders to the other clan members to grab items, switch hands and make tools/weapons (IMPORTANT: tell them to carry the weapon/tool with the left hand, if it's on the right they won't be able to eat and will die), then you can take all of them to explore with the 6 babies, they will "learn" and repeat what you do, giving you more neural energy and you'll be able to scare bigger things; take all the babies next to meteors, they get a random mutation unlocking new neurons that you can't unlock otherwise. Once you're able to explore with all the clan carrying sticks it's a walk in the park. This is like watching myself the first weeks i played this game, love it hahah
Killing animals gives you a lot of experience points, usually you need 3 spears for a boar and 2 more for a snake. Can't wait for you to the savanna. Great video fooster! Also when you use the spear you will need to make another one quick and stab the animal again
Merry Christmas, Fooster. Loving the series so far. That primal joy of learning something new is SO good. I have a tip for you concerning the big cats - they hunt you. You're essentially on a timer to spawn one as soon as your feet touch the ground. Likewise, in the tree canopy, if you linger (sit still for too long) you will spawn an attacking bird. The only place you're safe is high up off the ground, but below the canopy, and within (most) settlements.
Celebrating Christmas alone with covid this year, I am not sad, Just extremely bored Thank you for your content! You are making that time way more enjoyable ♥️
Hope you recover quickly and without any of the long-covid crud... caught it in June, and it took months for my stamina to recover. Then again, I'm barely closer to 45 than 50.
I also forgot to tell you this : regarding the rocks, some of them are obviously harder than the others, so what you want to do is grab all the different types you discovered and try smashing them against each other to alter a certain type into something... _more interesting_ . That's the best way I could describe it without spoiling anything.
Fooster. Im so happy that ive had the priveledge of stumbling upon your channel. You make watching other content that ive seen on other channels way mor entertaining. Your detail to character is epic.. Thank you my friend!
Absolutely NUTS to have been around since 5k subscribers and to see you rapidly closing in on 800k. All deserved. Your humor, your friends, the immersion and lengths you go to make your gameplay so cinematic and enthralling so unlike any other creator I watch and I absolutely love what you do. You know I'll always be around
I'm completely with u on those comments!!! I've been watching foost and Fiskypoo the short king for a long time now too. Most other channels I get into, whatever their content, seem to all by the wayside after a while for one reason or another but not these guys!!! Also like the community!!!
So was this series what made his channel popular? He got tons of subs because of it? It is a great series, he is very engaging and charismatic. I like his voice too.
Fooster half of your appeal is your passion for gaming and the little moments where your excited for the game thats what keeps me coming back. Please continue to be yourself thats what keeps me coming back! I really enjoyed this video thank you so much Fooster!
An altered basalt tool is an absolute essential for saving time and altering other things like horsetail etc... also use your smelling sense to find food
I know I’m watching this much later then it was posted but I just wanted to say you inspired me to play the game and it really made it more fun your channel is amazing and you always make my day
Mary Christmas and happy holidays!! The “achievements” in the top really help learn new things when you go to a sleep spot. I would recommend trying to get them. Love you Fooster and keep going. It will be hard though! Edit: ALWAYS use your senses even when you don’t think is anything. Also remember to use smell to find food and resources.
A little tip for the horsetail, you can alter it and should also be usable for bandages as well. Another tip for rocks, use granite rocks (best rock) to smash each other and when you use those to sharpen a stick it'll be much much faster
"When I say guys that Everything in this is trying to kill you, it really is." The fact that Fooster doesn't seem to realize that statement also includes him is some peak irony. Especially since he has so far been his own worst enemy. He hears scary noises so what does he do? Climb up a tree to safely scout the area from an advantageous position? Fuck no. He wonders around on the ground in thick brush with two side dishes hanging off him and begs for something to kill him.
Honestly avoided gameplay of the game like the plague because I wanted to go in completely blind but the pacing you have with the game and keeping it entertaining i just can't resist well done!
Fun fact: Obsidian blades are so advantageous in performing surgery on very thin skin such as the eyelids or genital area they are still used in modern medicine. They have been produced in a variety of shapes and sizes, varying in length from one foot to a few micrometers, and they may be sterilized by autoclaving. In the Americas, obsidian tools found at the site of Santa Isabel Ixtapan, Mexico, have been associated with a mammoth skeleton. Radiocarbon dating suggests that the tools may be as old as 10,000 years. Obsidian tools found in Ethiopia might be as old as 180,000 years.
Merry Christmas Fooster! So the one thing i want to point out is the entire game is kind of based on the Concept that there are visual triggers to know when to do something. just as some examples to perfect dodge you have wait for that flash just like the green flash when crafting or bonding. Same with attacking with a Rock or sharpened stick except you have to be facing what you want to attack
42:15 I was watching this last night and could not stop laughing 😂😂😂 Literally cried like the emoji. Had a knot in my throat. 😂 Your commentary is the best. I’m a big fan Fooster. Just recently subscribed. I watched your first video but stopped cause I also wanted to experience everything myself spoiler free. Now that I dumped in an easy 30 hours, your videos are the best! I’ll continue to do so until you reach a part I yet haven’t done.
Fooster playing an ancestral-evolution type of game and discovering his ancestral roots through this is amazing! Every discovery brings so much excitement and pride in his journey with these characters that I just want to see more! LOVE it!
this guy is the reason I still have insomnia, I don't get tired till 7am most of the time and this channel keeps me alive. I haven't slept in 2 days and haven't been bored cuz of Fooster. for what I'm willing to bet is most of our sanity please keep going
I absolutely loved the video, just like every other one of your uploads. The game is super cool and intriguing, and your style suits it perfectly. A little bit of humor here and there, but you also take the game seriously and show a legitimate interest in its content. I just wanna say thank you for the great experiences you always give us, and take care of yourself man.
this game is CRIMINALLY underrated. 90% of youtubers and twitchers got their asses kicked and hated on it, as a result it faded very quickly. it is part of a projected trilogy and i predict the second game will be so awesome people will come back to this and realize just how good it is. i can't wait for the next game, Australopithecus and onward is when it will get rather complicated and i am so here for it.
Fooster, your voice is uniquely friendly and perfect for TH-cam, in my meaning. I dont much care for these " Monkey buisness" But watch them still. Simply for your voice and that joy you have when doing things and succeed. That commitment, Olalalal! Thats just awsome! hahaha
Thank you, Fooster, for the continued great content, and I wish you and yours a merry Christmas, and a happy new years, and good health for next year as well!
Don’t blame you one bit, when this released I tried it out but gave up cuz I couldn’t figure anything out, I decided to give it another shot recently and I 100% it. Monke game is fun
I love this game and it's awesome to see you play it. This game really doesn't like to let you stay on the ground outside that initial area. I was on that cliff above the swamp once and it sent a croc after me. A croc, on a cliff. And yes, predatory creatures will stalk you. The ones outside the group are outsiders you need to help to befriend. To find out what any of the apes need you need to watch them, their actions will tell you what they need. When the darkness starts to enclose the screen that's your character having trouble staying awake.
Fooster I have only recently came across your posts and I subscribed because you have a great way of coming across objectively and honestly even though I don't have a computer but I appreciate the effort you put into your videos . Much respect
I usually do this and that while mostly just listening to TH-cam videos, but when Fooster plays this I am fully invested. I am really, really enjoying this series and looking forward to seeing it evolve.
It's always hard watching someone learn a game that you know how to play but I'm enjoying watching you figure things out. Small tip: experiment with hitting rocks together.
Hey Fooster I would like to thank you for continuing the series for Ancestors, others did videos on it, but I really enjoy your content dude and appreciate the time you are putting into a game that I found interesting. I do not have the time to try it for myself so thank you for playing it for us.
Merry Christmas fella thank you for all what you do as a TH-camr love the vid you and Fisk do and am really enjoying this series much love and hope your well
Fooster you're contents are awsome! This is the only game where u actually need to use your intelligence in such an immersive way, i find myself fully gone primal-mode asking myself everything about how i do things irl and how those very simple actions are the results of milions of years of evolution... just a few tips: -basic needs as water food and sleep, if can see the vitality bar pulsing green that means that action is working (when it's stop means u don't need more of that) -keep inspectioning EVERYTHING! Nothing have just aesthetic porpuse...
I wasn’t sure if I liked this game because it’s so unlike other games out there but you got me hooked on it and I love seeing you learning the new things and jumping for branches although each time it also does a flip for me lol it’s turning into a great time Merry Christmas
YESSSSS MORE, gracias for the episode but important to say Happy Chrismas, feliz Navidad, Buon Natale, Nullig Shona, Joyeux Noel, to everyone tutto religión, cultura, happiness and fun to all! 🎄🎅
"This would be one hell of a work out!" You've no idea, Foo! Single momhood (and just parenthood in general) builds strength in so many ways! 🤣 Also, Merry Christmas, Foo. I hope you're having a healthy and happy holiday. ❤
Hey Fooster! Keep eating and smelling and hearing everything, it helps build the muscles and memory of your infants to pass on. You’ll also have to a later everything you see, keep switching hands, the experience gets passed down through generations which will also respawn all the ingredients and tools you find. I’m playing the game along side you and recently found out that you can swing from the leaves of the trees!
Kyu needs to see you eat the honey on the stick to know it's edible, and gather the clan to you when you make the honey dipper and when you're collecting the honey, that way the clan learns how you got your sweet treat.
Hey fooster, just so you know you can swing on the leaves in a tree instead of just going from branch to branch. It’s easier and quicker to get around, just hold your jump button. P.S. I’m only 10 mins in this vid so idk if you ended up figuring that out :))
If you climb up in your first settlement and the left you have honey and in the right somewhere up there is a gem that will reduce your fear when you hold it. Never figured out how to get the honey, also you can fish with the spears you make
The circle at the bottom of your screen, when you eat or drink if it pulses yellow it means you are fulfilling a need, when it stops flashing that need is met
Cant wait for the next episode. Found you from The Forest, have twice the hours in this game though just because I love how unique it is. Please continue this series all the way till the end!
the more clan members you have with you, the easier it is to intimidate. even easier when they're holding sticks and stuff! However defending them might be a challenge :)
Finds warthog. Jaguar eats warthog. Finds snake. Jaguar eats snake. "I think he's just following me because he knows I'll take him to food." Finds primate. Jaguar eats primate. "I think I'm going to return to the clan." NO FOOSTER, NOOOO! 🤣
Gained a new subscriber! I love Ancestors and I've not seen very many people I watch play it. Found your first video on it and just love your curiosity about the game and watching this feels like I'm figuring out how to do things too! Merry Christmas! 🎄
there has to be a way to make stone weapons maybe just have to get the neurons flowing in the right order & there might be a reason to move the clan if the food supply gets scarce. But am really enjoying this game and hope to see more for sure
i love this series so much! discovering things the same time as you is so cool :)) thank you so much for all your continuous hard work ❤️ happy holidays fooster! ❄️
You need to pay closer attention to the pop ups in the game because after you mated and impregnated Coj one of the options that popped up was "give birth"
I’m so glad your enjoying this, when in settlement make sure your apes have nothing in their hands otherwise they won’t drink or eat like the others. Seems a bit silly but if something is in their main hand they cannot perform actions. Remember just go with your ideas and try it out like our ancestors did I hope your having a good time during this holiday season
Another episode already!? Nice! It must be Christmas! When you layed down with your partner, I briefly saw the option pop up that said "give birth" Happy holidays dude! Can't wait to see more
Merry Christmas and happy holidays, everyone! And thank you, Fooster, for being you and letting us have an amazing community that I can be proud of myself. ♥
Fooster, you should check out Path of Titans again they added a new map plus fliers and aquatics! Recent dev blog also noted quest and combat updates for 2023!
Fooster, the more clan members you have with you when you use intimidate (as long as the neuron for other members to copy intimidation and conquer fear actions is unlocked) the better intimidation works. IGP intimidated a hippo with his clan when the game was just out of release. The spontaneous neuron for the child was caused by the meteorite. KEEP that neuron because it will allow your clan to eat new food types later in your clan's evolutionary history. Your reinforcements are how you save specific traits. In order to stab attacking predators (if I recall rightly) you have to have the stick in the correct hand first. You CAN take meat from corpses, but you will need a stone chopper tool of one type or another (which I cannot recall how to make atm).
@@matt-pk7jz 0-0 yeah it does. I tried that and thought it wasnt doing anything hence why I told fooster to get a stone chopper. Thanks for that tip! XD my clan doesnt have the omnivore stuff yet so ill keep that in mind
@@matt-pk7jz I cannot recall to save my life atm (no game related pun intended). IGP made one in one of his ancestors videos on his main channel if you would like to know faster than my reply rate XD
@@matt-pk7jz ok. i couldnt find it in his videos so i looked it up. It may be BASALT chopper specifically. In this case a basalt rock is the item being altered and its the same process ans a scraper.
Please play this game until the end, it is such a satisfying survival game and you are one of the first big youtuber I've seen give it it's due and play more than one or two episodes
1. When you birth babies and do generation jumps time speeds ahead and your food will grow back. 2. The more you fight and kill the more fighting neurons you open and the easier and more time you have to react during fights. So you want to fight and kill as much as possible. 3. Mutations in infants are random however when you discover a meteor while carrying infants with no mutations it will force them to learn mutations. After you discovered the meteor with the infants go back and drop the infants off at the bed to force the mutations to appear. 4. To lock in and open mutations you need to grow an infant to either an adult or elder, then do a full evolution. Full evolution is the only way to "lock in" a mutation permanently and open it up to use it's ability. 4. Eat every food you come across as much as possible. Bugs, animal meat, snails, berries, mushrooms, EVERYTHING. Start now, eventually you'll learn omnivore and it makes it so much easier to survive when you can eat everything.
I'm at 4:40 right now and figured I would drop this story for you Fooster.
When I went to the Niabi Zoo I spoke to a zookeeper about how strong the Orangutans were. When they were reconstructing the orangutans exhibit they were using massive torque drivers to drive 12" screws through logs and into the walls of the exhibit and to fasten them to one another, the construction workers didn't realize that they left the screw and lug nut ends exposed in certain areas and the next day more then 90% of their work was undone. They ended up learning that the orangutans thought it was fun to unscrew the lug nuts by hand and toss them around... the lug nuts were driven into concrete with over 500ft/lbs of torque, and the orangutans used their fingers to unscrew them like it was nothing... apes are nothing to joke with man.
I guess construction guys matured a neuron that morning 🤣🤣
that's nuts! :D

OMG, I am so happy you didn't make me wait for another episode, Fooster!!! 🥳
Try hitting the different kinds of rock together, they may have different hardnesses so you can make tools with them if i remember right
I did give it a go with the obsidian and a normal rock but I kept breaking it 😢
I had no idea that you could carry two babies at once. That's something I never actually thought you could do in the game
Fun fact: Obsidian blades are so advantageous in performing surgery on very thin skin such as the eyelids or genital area they are still used in modern medicine. They have been produced in a variety of shapes and sizes, varying in length from one foot to a few micrometers, and they may be sterilized by autoclaving.
In the Americas, obsidian tools found at the site of Santa Isabel Ixtapan, Mexico, have been associated with a mammoth skeleton. Radiocarbon dating suggests that the tools may be as old as 10,000 years. Obsidian tools found in Ethiopia might be as old as 180,000 years.
"alright so let's drop the stick" (Rock) 😂😂😂😂
Merry Christmas Fooster! So the one thing i want to point out is the entire game is kind of based on the Concept that there are visual triggers to know when to do something. just as some examples to perfect dodge you have wait for that flash just like the green flash when crafting or bonding. Same with attacking with a Rock or sharpened stick except you have to be facing what you want to attack
Bless ya, Foost! Send our love to Fisk, Taco et al too! Have a good one 🫡
42:15 I was watching this last night and could not stop laughing 😂😂😂 Literally cried like the emoji. Had a knot in my throat. 😂 Your commentary is the best. I’m a big fan Fooster. Just recently subscribed. I watched your first video but stopped cause I also wanted to experience everything myself spoiler free. Now that I dumped in an easy 30 hours, your videos are the best! I’ll continue to do so until you reach a part I yet haven’t done.
*some hominid got mauled by sabertooth,
Fooster: "well, i guess its time to drink coconut juice.." :D
Fooster playing an ancestral-evolution type of game and discovering his ancestral roots through this is amazing! Every discovery brings so much excitement and pride in his journey with these characters that I just want to see more! LOVE it!
this guy is the reason I still have insomnia, I don't get tired till 7am most of the time and this channel keeps me alive. I haven't slept in 2 days and haven't been bored cuz of Fooster. for what I'm willing to bet is most of our sanity please keep going

Fooster: *"Let's have a drink!"*
I absolutely loved the video, just like every other one of your uploads. The game is super cool and intriguing, and your style suits it perfectly. A little bit of humor here and there, but you also take the game seriously and show a legitimate interest in its content.
I just wanna say thank you for the great experiences you always give us, and take care of yourself man.
this game is CRIMINALLY underrated. 90% of youtubers and twitchers got their asses kicked and hated on it, as a result it faded very quickly. it is part of a projected trilogy and i predict the second game will be so awesome people will come back to this and realize just how good it is. i can't wait for the next game, Australopithecus and onward is when it will get rather complicated and i am so here for it.
Keep ‘em coming fooster!❤️ loving these videos
pretty cool how the Fooster community is teaching him life things like dangerous plants, how to find shelter when in the wild, and giving birth.
Fooster, your voice is uniquely friendly and perfect for TH-cam, in my meaning. I dont much care for these " Monkey buisness" But watch them still. Simply for your voice and that joy you have when doing things and succeed. That commitment, Olalalal! Thats just awsome! hahaha
Thank you, Fooster, for the continued great content, and I wish you and yours a merry Christmas, and a happy new years, and good health for next year as well!
btw you can hold on to the foliage ,like the hanging branches and swing on them,it makes getting down from high places easier
Don’t blame you one bit, when this released I tried it out but gave up cuz I couldn’t figure anything out, I decided to give it another shot recently and I 100% it. Monke game is fun
Every time the ape touches the ground I get instant anxiety 😂 Everything in the forest is so vicious
I love this game and it's awesome to see you play it. This game really doesn't like to let you stay on the ground outside that initial area.
I was on that cliff above the swamp once and it sent a croc after me. A croc, on a cliff. And yes, predatory creatures will stalk you. The ones outside the group are outsiders you need to help to befriend. To find out what any of the apes need you need to watch them, their actions will tell you what they need. When the darkness starts to enclose the screen that's your character having trouble staying awake.
Fooster I have only recently came across your posts and I subscribed because you have a great way of coming across objectively and honestly even though I don't have a computer but I appreciate the effort you put into your videos .
Much respect
I usually do this and that while mostly just listening to TH-cam videos, but when Fooster plays this I am fully invested. I am really, really enjoying this series and looking forward to seeing it evolve.
It's always hard watching someone learn a game that you know how to play but I'm enjoying watching you figure things out. Small tip: experiment with hitting rocks together.
Hey Fooster I would like to thank you for continuing the series for Ancestors, others did videos on it, but I really enjoy your content dude and appreciate the time you are putting into a game that I found interesting. I do not have the time to try it for myself so thank you for playing it for us.
Merry Christmas fella thank you for all what you do as a TH-camr love the vid you and Fisk do and am really enjoying this series much love and hope your well
33:35 goes to sleep in middle of fighting boars for a quick energy boost lol
Fooster you're contents are awsome! This is the only game where u actually need to use your intelligence in such an immersive way, i find myself fully gone primal-mode asking myself everything about how i do things irl and how those very simple actions are the results of milions of years of evolution... just a few tips: -basic needs as water food and sleep, if can see the vitality bar pulsing green that means that action is working (when it's stop means u don't need more of that) -keep inspectioning EVERYTHING! Nothing have just aesthetic porpuse...
I wasn’t sure if I liked this game because it’s so unlike other games out there but you got me hooked on it and I love seeing you learning the new things and jumping for branches
although each time it also does a flip
for me lol it’s turning into a great time Merry Christmas
YESSSSS MORE, gracias for the episode but important to say Happy Chrismas, feliz Navidad, Buon Natale, Nullig Shona, Joyeux Noel, to everyone tutto religión, cultura, happiness and fun to all! 🎄🎅
"This would be one hell of a work out!" You've no idea, Foo! Single momhood (and just parenthood in general) builds strength in so many ways! 🤣 Also, Merry Christmas, Foo. I hope you're having a healthy and happy holiday. ❤
Hey Fooster! Keep eating and smelling and hearing everything, it helps build the muscles and memory of your infants to pass on. You’ll also have to a later everything you see, keep switching hands, the experience gets passed down through generations which will also respawn all the ingredients and tools you find.
I’m playing the game along side you and recently found out that you can swing from the leaves of the trees!
We love you fooster and enjoy your content and appreciate your hard work
Kyu needs to see you eat the honey on the stick to know it's edible, and gather the clan to you when you make the honey dipper and when you're collecting the honey, that way the clan learns how you got your sweet treat.
Hey fooster, just so you know you can swing on the leaves in a tree instead of just going from branch to branch. It’s easier and quicker to get around, just hold your jump button. P.S. I’m only 10 mins in this vid so idk if you ended up figuring that out :))
Fooster is so adorable when he gets super excited and invested lol. Hope you had a wonderful holiday and thank you for being you. ❤
If you climb up in your first settlement and the left you have honey and in the right somewhere up there is a gem that will reduce your fear when you hold it.
Never figured out how to get the honey, also you can fish with the spears you make
The circle at the bottom of your screen, when you eat or drink if it pulses yellow it means you are fulfilling a need, when it stops flashing that need is met
Merry Christmas🎅, love the series . Tip: Start smashing different rocks together, you can make better tools.
He needs to see this
Cant wait for the next episode. Found you from The Forest, have twice the hours in this game though just because I love how unique it is. Please continue this series all the way till the end!
the more clan members you have with you, the easier it is to intimidate. even easier when they're holding sticks and stuff! However defending them might be a challenge :)
Merry Christmas everyone and i hope everyone is having a wonderful day!!!😄🎄🎄✨
Gotta say I'm really enjoying this game I could see a long series❤️
hey foost , Waiting on metro while watching this , love both series but ya'know , Good work out there!
Fooster saying "Look at that big bitch" at 19:47 completely took me out lmao
Carry a sharp stick with you when you explore. Defend those babies lol
Please keep going. I personally love this series, and watching you play it is much better than the others.
Thank you for introducing me to this game I just bought it from the steam Christmas sale❤
Finds warthog. Jaguar eats warthog.
Finds snake. Jaguar eats snake.
"I think he's just following me because he knows I'll take him to food."
Finds primate. Jaguar eats primate.
"I think I'm going to return to the clan."
NO FOOSTER, NOOOO! 🤣
Gained a new subscriber! I love Ancestors and I've not seen very many people I watch play it. Found your first video on it and just love your curiosity about the game and watching this feels like I'm figuring out how to do things too! Merry Christmas! 🎄
there has to be a way to make stone weapons maybe just have to get the neurons flowing in the right order & there might be a reason to move the clan if the food supply gets scarce. But am really enjoying this game and hope to see more for sure
i love this series so much! discovering things the same time as you is so cool :)) thank you so much for all your continuous hard work ❤️ happy holidays fooster! ❄️
When do you plan to finish the metro series???? I have been living that series, and really want to see the end.
You need to pay closer attention to the pop ups in the game because after you mated and impregnated Coj one of the options that popped up was "give birth"
I’m so glad your enjoying this, when in settlement make sure your apes have nothing in their hands otherwise they won’t drink or eat like the others. Seems a bit silly but if something is in their main hand they cannot perform actions.
Remember just go with your ideas and try it out like our ancestors did I hope your having a good time during this holiday season
Another episode already!? Nice! It must be Christmas!
When you layed down with your partner, I briefly saw the option pop up that said "give birth"
Happy holidays dude! Can't wait to see more
Thank you for this great Christmas present! Big up The Fooster
Merry Christmas and happy holidays, everyone! And thank you, Fooster, for being you and letting us have an amazing community that I can be proud of myself. ♥
Fooster, you should check out Path of Titans again they added a new map plus fliers and aquatics! Recent dev blog also noted quest and combat updates for 2023!
Fooster, the more clan members you have with you when you use intimidate (as long as the neuron for other members to copy intimidation and conquer fear actions is unlocked) the better intimidation works. IGP intimidated a hippo with his clan when the game was just out of release. The spontaneous neuron for the child was caused by the meteorite. KEEP that neuron because it will allow your clan to eat new food types later in your clan's evolutionary history. Your reinforcements are how you save specific traits. In order to stab attacking predators (if I recall rightly) you have to have the stick in the correct hand first. You CAN take meat from corpses, but you will need a stone chopper tool of one type or another (which I cannot recall how to make atm).
u can just use a rock mate, does take ages tho
@@matt-pk7jz 0-0 yeah it does. I tried that and thought it wasnt doing anything hence why I told fooster to get a stone chopper. Thanks for that tip! XD my clan doesnt have the omnivore stuff yet so ill keep that in mind
@@jrtime228 how do u make a stone chopper anyways?
@@matt-pk7jz I cannot recall to save my life atm (no game related pun intended). IGP made one in one of his ancestors videos on his main channel if you would like to know faster than my reply rate XD
@@matt-pk7jz ok. i couldnt find it in his videos so i looked it up. It may be BASALT chopper specifically. In this case a basalt rock is the item being altered and its the same process ans a scraper.
Please play this game until the end, it is such a satisfying survival game and you are one of the first big youtuber I've seen give it it's due and play more than one or two episodes
Merry Christmas everyone! Hope you all have an amazing time with friends and family
Love the series, keep it up!
No need to thank us Fooster we need to thank you for being such a great TH-camr all year round and your content never disappoints.Merry Christmas
Keep up the good work man, I love your content!
1. When you birth babies and do generation jumps time speeds ahead and your food will grow back.
2. The more you fight and kill the more fighting neurons you open and the easier and more time you have to react during fights. So you want to fight and kill as much as possible.
3. Mutations in infants are random however when you discover a meteor while carrying infants with no mutations it will force them to learn mutations. After you discovered the meteor with the infants go back and drop the infants off at the bed to force the mutations to appear.
4. To lock in and open mutations you need to grow an infant to either an adult or elder, then do a full evolution. Full evolution is the only way to "lock in" a mutation permanently and open it up to use it's ability.
4. Eat every food you come across as much as possible. Bugs, animal meat, snails, berries, mushrooms, EVERYTHING. Start now, eventually you'll learn omnivore and it makes it so much easier to survive when you can eat everything.
