The Long Dark Interloper Forging Guide
This video focuses on the Interloper early game - starting a new character, forging tools, and making a bow and arrows. In future videos we'll go over skills, game mechanics, animal behavior, and probably a few specific things like how to get to the summit of Timberwolf Mountain.
