    Ah, the memories. :) I liked how the game had some obviously bad suggestions for illness and such, like rubbing salt into a wound, rubbing snow on frostbite, get lots of exercise with a concussion, and so on. You know you did it at least once. XD And the hill music creeped me out when I was a kid.

    I always started the game loading up on all of the supplies I needed. I did this through vendors and trading. My goal was to start the journey with the same amount of default money I began with in addition to all of my supplies. I thought that was a blast. Great game overall.

      It only works well at the very start of the game. Out on the trail the trading gets insanely difficult, like if you want for a sack of salt someone will ask for 200 lbs of meat or something crazy.

    • @excrono
      @excrono 3 місяці тому

      ⁠@@ken131If you think about it, on the trail a sack of salt could be worth as much as 200lbs of meat due to how essential it is to preserve said meat.

      I'm looking for new people. They randomly appear in certain places and years. There are probably a lot of conversations that even I have never had because you have to meet them under specific circumstances. It's impressive that MECC put in this much detail, but it's a little tedious finding it all.

  • @Pyrethryn
    @Pyrethryn Рік тому +1

    All the trading, I was having a hard time keeping track of what you were buying and what you were trading. Were you buying things from the stores to trade for better goods on the street? Like 3 oxen for 1 mule, ox were $11 each from the store, and you traded for 1 mule- that costs $40 at the store. Do you get a better trade value if you buy stuff from the stores and take them to the street?

    • @ken131
      @ken131  Рік тому +2

      Yeah, doing transaction over transaction sometimes I mess up, but the idea is to memorize what they cost in stores and then always trade for a higher value.
      Some people say that this is an exploit. But I envision my character walking around town just buying and selling animals all day, ripping people off. Times were tough!
