Aurora loot is not for the faint of heart | The Long Dark

This is what can happen when you take Hinterland up on its offer of loot that's only available during an aurora. This incident happened after Astrid found a nice clothing cache in Desolation Point and a big cache of ammo plus a rifle in Coastal Highway. That potential loot comes with a risk, though -- encounters with supercharged wildlife which no longer fear fire.

Also, take note of when the bear starts to charge, something I failed to do while trying to find the door to the cabin. Does that seem further away than usual? It did in retrospect, but maybe I underestimated just how quickly the bear was closing in. Find the full video here:    • Road to 500, Day 261: Dance of the Au...  .

The Long Dark is a thoughtful, exploration-survival experience that challenges solo players to think for themselves as they explore an expansive frozen wilderness in the aftermath of a geomagnetic disaster. There are no zombies -- only you, the cold, and all the threats Mother Nature can muster. https://store.steampowered.com/app/30...
