What a difference it makes.

I was born the first child of a nameless eve this morning in the middle of a large green biome "What a great spot we have" mother says as I look at the vast amount of green around us with no other resources abundant. I normally would have suicided after she started tilling three piles of soil with no bowl or kiln to even be able to farm but I decided I would be a child eve.

I went a few screens south and found a nice little desert with multiple ponds and got hard to work getting things set up for my children. I really wasn't sure how many children I could handle raising being where we were without risking a boom-bust population growth. It really amazed me how many people were running around the small camp in my late forties, we probably had ten or so people in a place I didn't think could support four.

Almost all of my children survived to old age minus the baby girl who got attacked by the released bear and my last son. It really makes a difference in an eve camp when people know exactly what to do to survive and what they can do to help the camp grow. I was amazed to see the family line lived up to 19 gens. If I would have suicided it would have been another dead end eve run but instead something big grew.

Thanks to all my hardworking children, without you guys the place never would have gotten as far as it did.

It really does make a huge difference haha. I had a similar run yesterday actually- almost the same exact scenario.

I was born to an Eve who clearly had no idea what she was doing. She settled on the border between green and rocky, with desert close by and literally not a pond in sight. She didn't even have a kiln up and was working on soil rather than kiln, fire, bowls..

She snapped at me when I was little because I kept moving back to a warm desert tile near her.. I wouldn't call it a camp- worksite, I guess? She told me "be a good girl or I'll have to kill you" or somethin like that.

I thanked her once I reached toddler age, grabbed a basket, and found an awesome site literally five screens south. Nice size desert, at least 6 ponds bordering that, and right next to the large green biome. I got a kiln up, fire going, bowls made, and berries growing by the time I had my first kid that stuck around.

The two kids that stayed with me were hard workers. My only daughter worked with me at camp, and we got iron tools going by my 30's. We got stew plants + carrots running as well. My son Zeus got to work on a sheep pen and managed to finish it before getting snagged by a boar.

Had my usual number of suicide kids because "Wah y u not a big city reeeeee" but overall was a pretty great run. Every other one of my mother's kids suicided. The fam made it to gen 11 thanks to me and my kids, looks like it was wiped out early thanks to some griefers though v.v

tl;dr, pseudo-eve runs can be pretty satisfying at times and I agree- location can mean the difference between an eve's success. It's also kinda neat to look back and be like "hey, that run made it there thanks to my actions. Awesome!"

I love being "kid eve", except that you never get your own surname, which sucks.
Though it gives you enough time to gather resources and build a camp while you're still underage and not popping out babies to distract you.
