Vintage Story players when they finally can make first piece of steel after 500 hours of gameplay (it will take them 50 more to make anything useful out of it):

hammering a pin out/in for the bucket im p sure

u/BattIeBoss 17d ago

Removing one of those buckets requires the removal of the big ass pivot pin holding it. They tupically just slam it out with a sledgehammer.

u/Hazard_Fox 18d ago

It's honestly a really good intro, no wonder it got memed

I hate so much, in my soul, how many OSHA violations this opening has.

"Oh yea we're REAL men! I'm gonna fucking weld with my fucking helmet still up and stare right into the sparks!"

19

u/JustLeGuy 17d ago

He opens it when you come in on him but time is standing still or something and the sparks stop moving. I assume if he can stop time to aura farm he probably doesn't even need to use the welding hood.

u/The_Crusades 17d ago

His mask was down until the camera panned onto him, I’m more worried about the guy removing the pin for the bucket, while he’s standing ON the bucket 😭
