Technically it's an ideology playthrough :) - fun to make this one - be sure to check out the mod list if you want to try it out - fantastic work by the modders made it possible
Cool
Since you joined the hsk discord do you actually play hsk project/modpack in your own time? It's quite long winded but very in depth you get nice sense of accomplishment once you do start to thrive, it's like adding bobs/angels/aai to factorio if that's relatable.
It was a good story. Though I'm not sure a lucerferium addiction was a fair trade for two toes.
So, was this the *true origin* of the lucifarium addicted super soldier then?
guess im a noob still where do i find it its not on steam if it is I have 125 pages to look thrue
I like to think Seymour wore his chopped off toes like a talisman. A constant reminder of what he had lost.
I can only imagine Seymour from the Simpsons as a caveman with a two-toe necklace. Am I broken?
You know theres a new mod.... tongue necklace
lol maybe it will get an update for toes lol
@@zadikariamitchell1930 don’t worry that’s all I can imagine also
@@zadikariamitchell1930 no, it is the video that is wrong
You could make it a holy relic
Aaah so this is cannonically leading into the high on luciferium supersoldier playthrough.

Oh yes, you're right, this is a prequel!
@J Hemphill I count one loser in the comment section pointing out spelling errors for no reason other than to be a prick. Maybe go outside sometime and make some friends.
@@notjarrod8287 This is how he impresses the ladies
The prequel we never knew we needed 😂
Damn, I don't even need to look up at the screen when drawing on my tablet while watching this video. Your voice and your explanation are so good that I understand what is happening without looking at the screen. Thank you for keeping me entertained while working.
To be honest I thought the same thing recently. It's like an audiobook. You can listen to it while doing other things. ^^
My dude, I've been doing the same. It's so relaxing.
I know it's amazing. Although sometimes I go back and rewatch because it's easy to stop paying attention.
I wish I had english this perfect
Busy drawing loli's?
This guy is a poet.
J U B I L A T I O N
Ever since you said it I just realized that he is
Always has been
Rejoice my dude, you have come to our society.

Finally we see the ideology memes reach their true potential.
Tunnelers pretty OP
He would have gone insane for eating without table.
@@ambiguousamphibian Pain is a virtue should also get a shout out, but yeah tunneler is just basically all upsides no downsides, I did transhumanist tunnelers and my colonists ate nothing but insect meat, nutrient paste, human meat, and nutrifungus, I'll tell ya though anytime I had visitors they were QUITE unhappy with their dinners.

Hey! That's me! As a bald and bearded geologist, this feels very close to home.

oh my god, it’s the actual Seymour Buttes
@@Cacemomarerona Jesus Christ it's Jason Bourne
@@Cacemomarerona no it’s actually his cousin Seymour Cleavage
@@Cacemomarerona It's Seymour Asses, actually.
"Even without my toes I was a savage killer." nice quote from AA.
One of my favorite challenges was a scenario I custom made for myself inspired by Mad Max. In the scenario creator, there is an option to disable sowing.... You start solo with just your dog as a companion. Cannibals and psychopaths everywhere.
With moisture down, and heat cranked high? This desert world was hostile. It was a very interesting challenge. I should update it for 1.3 and reshare...
Wow, that's actually quite interesting, especially for my ideolized nomadic raider playthrough. On second thought, it also reminds me of the ice sheet survival challenge, where you naturally don't have neither land nor temperature to grow anything.
@@FarhadHakimov The difference is that you can grow things in the ice sheets when you start getting enough electricity, in this challenge you will never be able to.
I do miss those long challenge series like the ice biome challenge. But i do see how all the actual time and gameplay has been edited down for convenience.
He still does some series in the vod channel, they're not edited but they're still pretty cool
@@paulmccartneyofc6883 I didnt much care for the neckbeard tribe. But i do watch alot of the stuff on the vod channel.
@P Shali Same. It's the storytelling that turns regular grind into tales about life itself.
Was thinking the same thing
I hoped this turns into a few videos with a full colony
Seymour: *Looses two toes in a battle*
"A small price to pay for salvation."
Clearly this is Dwarf Fortress, and you should have named your first colonist "Urist".
Or hollow Knight. Like hollow nest was an underground kingdom
Finally, a City of Ember audiobook by AA
Trueee
Holy crap. It’s been years since I have thought about City of Ember. Thanks for reminding me.

LMAO
This stuff right here, sir, is pure Poe.
"It's always a satisfying experience to watch..." AmbiguousAmphibian.
Edit: Well hell, thanks ya'll. You too AA. Have a good one!
@@EEEEEEEE #€#
I agree. It is always a satisfying experience to watch AmbiguousAmphibian. Sometimes, I like to think he knows I'm watching...
You know what? I had just found this channel recently, and was absolutely captured by the Project Zomboid videos that had initially been recommended. Now, on my birthday, you upload yet another masterpiece. Though it may be through sheer coincidence, and though this comment may be lost to the recesses of the internet, I cannot help but say thank you, universe for the gift of the ambiguousamphibian.
Happy aging day, ya big nerd
@@Direblade11 nicest thing ive read all day ;-;
Fucking Socrates got revived and is now writing youtube comments.
Congratulations!! you have aged.
Happy birthday!
This is amazing
I'd love a preset mode or challenge mode to generate underground only maps. This sounds lots of fun to try.
I know. I want to do the exact same scenario but the only way to do that is to go into godmode.
2:20
You have yourself a small place to sleep with a rock for a pillow while the fungus happily grew around you.
A True Undergrounder.
this man is able to accurately narrate and descibe the entire journey and emotions of the story in the arithmetic tone and it was an enjoyable experience
1:43 "On the second day, I began to strip mine the walls around me." *branch mine Strip mining is when you dig/mine downward from the surface in thin layers, or "strips," at a time until you get to the minerals you're looking for, then fill the hole back in when you're done.

The prequel to the Luciferium Super-Soldier we never knew we needed.
These types of challenge videos are def my favorite, just watching you get through a completely fucked situation and then somehow manage out of it (or fail entirely) is entertaining as hell.
I like that, occasionally, I’ll learn a new world through these videos, due to the somewhat artful style that he speaks in. Today’s word was Fastidious: 1) Especially particular, critical, or demanding. 2) Requiring or characterized by excessive care or delicacy.
Neat
When there is no storyteller ever mentioned, it's ambiguousamphibian who does all the narration.
You know it must rhyme somewhere, but it's always halfway there.
The satisfaction is there, almost. I truly appreciate the effort, almost.
Hi
The best way to listen to these videos is imagining its an audiobook. Purely magical.
Always in the style of a fantastical historical biogrqphy
Are we just gonna ignore that he took luciferium at the end of the challenge to grow his toes back??
Luciferium is literally the equivalent of a drawn-out suicide. How's the dirt-poor mountain man supposed to support an expensive & rare drug addiction? A second episode would be impossible because he'd die in a couple of days like 99% of scenarios...
*opens dev mode*
Die in a couple days? That's enough luciferium for over a year.
he has 11, thats like a years worth of luci for one man
It's this sort of anti-drug hysteria that gives luciferium addiction a bad name. Don't knock it 'til you've tried it, I say 😉
Also you can get mech serum have your pawn die after his body is fully regened and res him.
Why the drama?
These stories are more beautiful than any poems and literature in my life.
A possible idea for a challenge: Can you get to space without ever using electricity?
Unless you count the noble ending as going to space I don't believe so because researching that requires the hi tech research table which I think takes power
@@alexdraco9926 watch speedrun that's possible
@@murder1625 I'll stand corrected then maybe one of my 90 mods is doing that but I definitely thought vanilla did
@@alexdraco9926 ship message get in ship and that's how beat that i know
By the way you can hide sealed of paths by using dev command 'refog' to keep that unblemished cave aesthetic.
You know you're a good storyteller when you give your viewers a sense of nostalgia by the end of a 14 minute video..
This is like if welyn made rimworld videos, absolutely amazing.
Your intro perfectly explained what I love most about Rimworld. I regularly refer to Rimworld as my "ant colony game" when telling people who dont play about it
"it was better sleeping on the gravel and I'd be down here for a while"
.... You sleeping on a bolder ?????
LOL
some of the first pillows were shaped stones.
to be fair, he is an ascetic
this is the most amphibian geared playthrough I've ever seen. the neat little holes in the wall. everything laid out. the fact that it's pretty much literally an ant hill as he calls them all the time. congrats on living your dreams, AA
Only 5 mins in, but I must say that it is flat out impossible to dig a space if you are completely enclosed, because there is nowhere for the earth you remove to go. Also, you'd suffocate pretty fast.
The episode of Futurama that you got that name from absolutely destroyed me. It's still my favorite episode ever.
O FRABJOUS DAY!
Should have used random randy for the absolute amount of pain and masochism
You say that playing rimworld shoud be enjoyment and satisfactory instead of pain and suffering.
So these 800 hours were played wrong
Can confirm, would have fucked him up.
@@NinoCristianini my apologies sir, its hard to heal these wounds randy gave to me
No "Hello?"
My dear Amphibian, don't leave us hanging like that. I for one like to say it alongside you.
I love how the Stoic community seems to love Rimworld, Bannerlord, and Kenshi. I feel like i am home, thank you sir.
Easily the most entertaining Rimworld player!
A touching story in under 14 minutes with outstanding narration, classic amphibian.
Kinda fun to see Hakuja and Gray beating a muffalo together.
They both were in my colony. Hakuja was a cannibal, Gray was a Bloodlust Psychopath. Married, both have psychic harmonizers. Giving +10 to +20 to every colonist. And that helped me stabilize my colony since ideology wasnt a thing yet.
Good times.
love when you do Rimworld stuff
A general tip: if you must build a stone door, hold it open. They're extremely slow to open and close, even the autodoors.
I Started Rimworld after seeing your playthrough and, oh god, i was waiting one with the news extensions
I love the random poetry that happens in your videos. Also please more underground playthrough
"With the insect jelly filling my belly" What a poet!
This was a spiritual journey, and it touched me deeply
Reminds me of Minecraft when beds weren't a thing. On new games, I would harvest as much wood and tree saplings as I could on the first day and then go underground for a LONG time. I miss those fun times.
This has the makings of a really good mod. You could call it "Vault Survivor". Basically your character was sealed up in a pod in the middle of a mountain to survive a nuclear war. But a earthquake buried the complex and then the back up power on your pod ran out well before the world had recovered.
The win condition for game is establishing a glitter refuge (all techs researched with fusion generator, energy to matter fabricator, and cloning vat built) with 10 nonmutant pawns.
"My only problem is that there's never enough content." - Micah.
I really like these! we need more of this :)
Oh this looks fun. I want to try an underground start now too.
BTW, ambiguousampbian, if you didn't know prior; there is a built in vanilla tool in rimworld that allows automatic reconstruction of any claimed building in your colony. Lets say you build a wooden chair. A pawn breaks said chair. This function will automatically add that chair back as a queue, as if you had placed it manually and your pawns will rebuild said chair.
To find this function look at the bottom right of your screen where you can select different overlays such as room quality. It is the hammer icon next to the automatic home zone creator. Or under your selective play speed.
Seymour, with his crazy excavations. Amphibian's gonna need his dedication.
When he sees Rimworld's famous complications, there'll be troubling times tonight!
SEYMOUR!
Imagine the spore lung this guy woulda got stuck in this cave with all this fungus and no airflow out if he'd never found the natural cave lol
*Superintendent Chalmers digs through the mountain of rocks*
-Well Seymour I made it, despite your directions.
-Ahhh superintendent Chalmers, welcome! I hope you're prepared for an unforgettable luncheon!
I really, really love these Rimworld challenge playthroughs, so here's an idea:
- Scenario that gives you a new man in black every three or four days, start with only one colonist.
- As large a map size as possible.
- Executing, banishing, and the like are all forbidden.
- Go for the base game build a spaceship ending only.
- Your mission is to battle overpopulation and starvation to get to the spaceship ending with as few deaths as possible. Perhaps increase the challenge by making it so that the spaceship must have enough cryosleep capsules to bring everyone? Could just make it at least a certain percentage of your population. IDK if there's any limit to how big you can make your ship in the base game.
I just started this game yesterday and it's amazing. I am thinking of writing "Colonist Logs" where I detail my journey after each session. This was such a great video to watch. Great work. Goals.
Much like the Allegory of the Cave, we are metaphorically chained to the cave wall. AA is true enlightenment.
Oh every time I hear that reflection on the jabberwalk.
Makes me smile truly a great day
"Only in isolation can we truly appreciate the finer things in life."
Good lord, this could have easily been a whole series! Not just a barely 15minute video!
Enthralling, great stuff!
I wake up to silence and pitch darkness. It doesn't take much to grasp (literally) the severity of my situation. I've been thrown - entombed - in a tiny cell, surrounded by stone and earth on all sides. There don't seem to be any seams in the walls. I have a terrible suspicion come to the front of my mind. To test it I grab a chunk of stone I've felt myself kicking, and start banging on the walls. Each strike shifts the suspicion towards certainty - I'm surrounded by many meters of solid material on all sides. Despair overtakes me.
---
I'm not sure how long it takes me, but I eventually regain some of my composure, enough to take stock of my resources. Those are scant. There's ten metal cans - probably canned meals, no doubt left by my jailors as a cruel joke, to prolong my suffering. On one of the walls I manage to find a tiny bit of fungus sticking out.
I've heard some kinds of fungus could be edible, so I might try and plant those around me to keep me alive when canned food inevitably runs out. This raises my spirits considerably. But for fungus to sustain me I would have to plant a lot of it, far more than my current habitat can hold. I will need to dig out more room. I shudder at the amount of effort I would have to expend for that - but it's the only choice I have. I grasp around, and on one of the walls I find a rock that seems not too large from my side. I claw at earth around it, and manage to get the rock loose. Armed with this most primitive of tools, I continue digging in that direction with grim determination.
---
It's been... two days, I guess, although there is no way to measure the time here. I've slept twice, and have expended two of my precious cans. Half of one of those I've wasted trying to open the can with the "tools" I had, before I've managed to break one rock to get an edge fine enough to cut through the tin given enough force.
The tunnels are coming along. There's no light at the end of any of them (figures), but I might just have enough space for the fungus that I won't starve after all the cans run out. The bit I have found is growing remakably fast, so fast I can seed the tunnels almost at the speed I'm digging them. I've tried a bit of the fungus and didn't encounter any adverse effects. That doesn't mean there aren't any - we'll see what my stomach says when this fungus will be my entire diet.
The lack of light is getting to me. What woudn't I give (not that I have much in here) to see *anything*. To see someone else.
---
Its been ten cans and some fungus. Fungus edible, but there mightbe some effects after all. Or itmight be isolation and darkness getting to me. Digging is repetitive, brings repetitive thoughts. I cant get away from thinking of seeing another person. Seeing their eyes blink their mouth smile their arms move their...

it may be closing in on 2am, but sleep is for the weak and ambiguousamphibian videos are for the strong
As much as I love these more concise videos. I miss the series style
You should check out the VODs channel then of his streams. They're less polished than his older series (they're unedited streams after all), but you get more content and following characters for longer.
Unfortunately he has commented on the vods that the series style is probably done for because aside from the time commitment youtube punishes that kind of uploading
@@alexdraco9926 damn. What a shame
This made me realize i would love if we could make specialized tools. Like picks to boost mining skill, or plows/hoes to boost farming, or a loom to boost tailoring, etc.
Side note: how did you start with plantable mushrooms?
Vanilla Expanded has your back.
That's part of the idealogy dlc.
I love how this video is both a fun entertaining romp for rimworld vets, and a how to survive your first few days in rimworld for newcomers. Bravo sir, now enjoy your time with the upworlders!
This is all cool and stuff, but, where does he get oxygen from?
Where does he ferry out the excavated material?
What? A computer game? Nah man, you gotta account for this stuff, this is Rimworld.
I still prefer the multi episodes series where we enjoy seeing your thought process as it comes the situations
Is this gonna be a series?
Personally I really enjoyed this.
I find it interesting that you've started shifting your narrative perspective from 3rd person to 1st
Rim world never ends. It's a good writing tool. If you want to learn world building try logging things in Rimworld and use these logs in a bigger story.
“Even without my toes i was a ferocious fighter”
AA i hope your doing well, i enjoyed this video, but miss the more episodic centered game play stories. your story telling skills are unmatched. i find myself narrating my own game playing like you did. Although with less success
Seymour to his toes: "You are nothing but sacrifices for the sake of a greater mankind"
Imagine someone wrote an inspiring book about a guy trapped in a mountain.
Is anyone else bummed at aa's new narrative style being so serious?
I liked AA because of the humor. This is like an English professors lecture...
Today on Rimworld, we play Dwarf Fortress.
God Seymour Buttes had me rollin not even a minute in
You talk in a manner which is simply admirable, i truly can not comprehend how you weave the words in such ways to enthrall my feeble mind.
Writing for the voiceover is too good for a RimWorld video. I love it
13:13 bro i have no clue what you're saying, but i am absolutely loving it.
What you missed out about this poor man's life after living in the caves is struggling with a lifelong luciferium addiction after he'd consumed it once.
The use of erik satie's music is what gets me, what a channel
Seymour Buttes is unironically infinitely dedicated to geology, ultimately deciding to spend the rest of his life in a butte
Survives to the end.
Takes a lethal drug to restore lost toes...
"one room for mushrooms, one room for stone chunks". Pretty much sums up my life.
hey just wanted to say ur my new fav youtuber and i look forward to everything you post, I enjoy watching your rimworld playthroughs at 6am before i have to head into work :)
This was my first experience with Rimworld, now after nearly 300 hours it just hits different, and yeah without Ideology giving you that Nutrifungus and Prepare carefully making Seymour op you'd be dead in the first week
I feel like you need to do a negative man equivalent play through of Rimworld sometime. Maybe something like "how many colonists will every negative trait can one superhuman support". Where all food and medicine must preferentially go to that group of sickly, jealous, gourmands who are incapable of every labor type including violence rather than the person whose actually doing all the work.
Ah, Seymour Buttes. I hope colonist friends such as Al Coholic and Hugh Jass will be joining as well.
It's always a satisfying experience to rewatch your videos
Playing Dungeon Keeper in Rimworld is actually a great idea!
I greatly enjoy the style and cadence of the story telling you use in your rimworld videos
Honestly, if you were going to lose any of your toes, one of the big ones is definitely the worst.
this was without a doubt the most entertaining rimworld video i ever seen. its among the best videos ive watched overall the last couple of months, amazing job
He escaped the mountain...
*But he would only later learn what it had taken from him.*
Luciferium-senpai laughs in the distance.
It's come to the point where I play your videos to hear your voice. It's very like a instant serotonin release
