What are the best survival games?

Don't Starve.

>>378309226
>3 hours without shelter
In what situation? That seems pretty vague.

whaddaya mean 3 hours without shelter?
Hobos survive day by day without shelter for longer than 3 hours.

>>378309331
Seems like bullshit, I can sit outside for three hours no problem

metal gear survive

>>378309331
That's the one thing I don't get either, each way I try to think about it still doesn't make sense.

>>378309331
I once went to a midnight release and had to wait 2h 55m before getting into the store
my liver was malfunctioning and I had to amputee a leg after that, but I did survive

>>378309331
>leave house for 3.1 hours
>die

>>378309226
>3 days without shelter
in what fucking world

>>378309331
Probably referring to basement dweller neckbeards having to leave home to get their NEETbux.

>Take a walk outside

>Ohshit.jpg
>Two hours and 59 minutes

>>378309226
>3 hours without shelter

What the fuck? I'm pretty sure I've been outside of any kind of shelter for much longer than 3 hours before. What the fuck does that even mean?

>>378309226
That 3 hours thing must refer to the worst weather conditions, but even then you can survive on the fucking North Pole during a Blizzard for longer if dressed properly.

>>378309226
7 days to die.

hmmm, all 3s..... must be correct....

There's literally no situation where it really makes sense without some kind of stipulation.

>take off jacket, prop it up with a stick
>now I've got 3 days
Sweet.

>>378309668
It's "survive", not be able to move and run around and shit.

You won't die as long as you have water for several weeks. Your body stores up enough energy in fat to last you a while, longer depending on your fat stored, but you don't store water.

>>378309775
I read about a really fat guy who lost weight by only eating vitamin pills and drinking water, while his body ate his fat for like a year

>>378309775
Fat fucks starve super fast because the energy needed to move their bulk drains their reserves fast

>>378309775
there were cases when people stay under rubble and wait for rescue almost whole one month

>>378309880
That seems far more difficult than just going to the gym, but I wouldn't put it past fatties

>>378309226
>3 hours without shelter
They are talking about in extreme weather conditions. So 3 hours of hypothermia exposure without sufficient jackets, or heat stroke conditions without sufficiently cool shaded area to rest.

maybe it means 3 hours of exposure to extreme sun/extreme cold? does shelter count stuff like appropriate clothing?
who knows

>>378311030
you do, if you starve yourself, your body goes into a survival mode and slows your metabolism to a crawl. eventually if you are still starving after a week or two it will burn fat, but it takes a lot longer to start.

>>378311239
referring to extreme conditions, it's poorly worded

>>378312169

That's actually somewhat surprising. I would assume you'd die of exposure in 30 minutes in those conditions.

Amputee is a noun. You "amputate" a leg.

>>378312346

Actually after looking it up, it seems hypothermia kicks in about 30 minutes during the extreme cold (assuming you're not clothed properly) so I'm wrong about that.

I'm pretty sure death isn't that far off then since you'll eventually be KO'd.

So now I'm confused by 3 hours of no shelter.

It's probably like it was said above. Extreme heat/cold with regular clothing on for that occasion.

>>378309667
That's why the hotdog vendors in your area always look different. They cycle the poor bastards regularly. Offices would count as shelter from a survival aspect simply because it's indoors.

Your commute time is longer than 3 hours?

>One of the most well known cases of voluntary starvation, is the hunger strike of Mahatma Ganhdi. During his protest, Gandhi ate absolutely no food and only took sips of water for 21 days, and survived. What extraordinary about this case is the fact that Gandhi was very lean when he started his hunger-strike, thus not having much energy reserve from the outset. Also, it must be noted that during his life, Gandhi is reported to have performed a total of 14 hunger strikes.

At least read the article
>In a 1997 editorial in the British Medical Journal, Peel briefly reviewed the available literature regarding human starvation. Generally, it appears as though humans can survive without any food for 30-40 days, as long as they are properly hydrated. Severe symptoms of starvation begin around 35-40 days, and as highlighted by the hunger strikers of the Maze Prison in Belfast in the 1980s, death can occur at around 45 to 61 days.
There are examples of fasting for more than 3 weeks "without" any, assuming you're hydrated

>>378312235
You can go literally months without food, IF you are fat enough.

And by fat enough I mean like 600, 500 pounds. And you would still need vitamins and water.

How come there's no good survival games out other than maybe one or two?

You'd think a genre that has a huge amount of interest and a bunch of games made for it after the birth of DayZ would have a few good games.

>>378318773
Because most of them are incomplete and never will be. Outside of Don't Starve, which other survival game is a 100% done?

>>378318773
it's because once the trend was rolling full force the people churning out all of these survival games were doing it as a cash grab or the people making it were 'idea men' who will 100% never finish the game.
