I played Reign of Giants yesterday for the first time and this thing killed me almost instantly. I was not aware of the overheating mechanic, so I was brutally unprepared. My crops, my machines, my trees and plants were all burnt down on the first day. All I had left was a single berry bush, which acted as my single source of food, which wasn´t too bad thanks to its increased speed of sprouting berries in the summer. Also, from the few resources which I recovered from the fire, I managed to make an Endothermic Fire Pit, which kept me alive. I think I would have made it if this thing hadn´t found my base and burn what was left of it. The first thing it destroyed was the berry bush, which was appropriate. It was all I had, without it, I was nothing. This thing destroying it without a sweat symbolically showed how screwed I was. I tried to kite it, didn´t last long. Overall, I was pretty proud of myself, lasted 30 days (much longer than I had expected) and I went down fighting a giant dragonfly. Making it one of the most exciting and fulfilling experiences I´ve ever had in Don´t Starve.
