several of my friends have started playing this game because of me talking about it all the time, which is kind of funny because its the only game I play and I was never a gamer until I got cancer and the drs recommended I play games to help with chemo side effects post-cancer treatment. Well, I got hooked on playing this game ... I have it on nintendo switch (where I first bought it), then on steam where I play under linux and also stream it to my tv, and now playstation 5. One of the reasons why I like it so much is because it is so realistic and because I can literally get lost in the amazon jungle and the graphics are amazing .... and since I don't have the vid vaccine, I can't really go anywhere so here I am ... playing this game to pass time and keep me sane (because I also have to limit visitors still). So my friends who have started playing this always ask me about story mode which i had never played even once until today (that reason might be coming up but I didn't realize that until today also .... huge plot twist). I've always played in survival mode. So, in story mode each person has talked about not being able to move forward without getting killed. The back story is a husband and wife team are in the Amazonian forest doing research. They get separated. The wife calls the husband in distress and he takes off to find her. Right off the bat, most guys in real life would not stop until their wife was rescued so the game plays off of that reaction. What you have to do is prepare yourself to find her first. You need strength, gear, etc which means setting up camp, crafting tools to build a shelter, start a fire, collect and purify water, and facilitate obtaining food (your typical real world "rules of 3"). You also need to hunt to improve your skills before you ever head out to find Mia. Once you have the basics down then you can take off. Head north until you find an abandoned tribal camp. So this video shows how far along i was before i ever left the area i started next to the pond or oasis area where you first start after the Mia calls for help cut scene. Then i show my first trip scene ..... Green Hell is really an awesome survival game and realistic in many aspects from the correct order you need to do things, to the types of tools you can craft, to the usage of those tools, and even the plant and mushroom names are correct. Heck, even the hallucinogenic drug name is correct down to the ingredients it takes to make it. I bleeped out an F-bomb Jake let slip. ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kU1VnaA5jbA

I was trying to generate an AI sticker in cyberlink powerdirector 365 with the latest updates and it was generating the stickers but wouldn't download them. I found a single forum post with another user having the same issue but no resolution. So I started messing around trying to resolve it myself and was successful ... I show you how in this video ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XaX-kvccw5E

Its a busy time of the year so youtube uploads have been slow while i try to keep up with "all the thangs!". In this video i give an update of what ive been doing to keep myself so busy with things breaking down, fixing the harbor freight chipper shredder, building new bee hives, moving a large part of the apiary, upgrading the chicken coop, moving chicks into the new coop, morel mushroom hunting, planting rhubarb (again, 3rd time is a charm), and tilling the garden i said i wasnt going to do this year because i was afraid my plate would be too full with still doing the "cancer treatment recovery", oh....and the yardmax rear tine tiller literally broke down as soon as i was placing it back into storage after tilling the garden so 1 more thing that needs fixing. ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aMM13_lkb-I
