I played Don't Starve Together for the first time with some friends.
Gameplay Log 1:
Chris made a Survival server. Steph and I joined.
It was getting dark.
I didn't know how to find Chris and Steph.
I died.
Steph tried to find spiders to revive me.
Eventually I was resurrected.
Then a Treeguard came and killed Steph and I.
Then we restarted the server.
Gameplay Log 2:
This game was going better than the last.
Thomas was available to play, but couldn't join.
Gameplay Log 3:
Steph made a Wilderness server with more Beffalo.
It's fun though I had to try hard to survive.
First Impressions:
There didn't seem to be much wiggle room for design like with Terraria.
Overall, I can see the appeal of Don't Starve Together, but I personally like the pacing of Terraria more. Terraria requires less micromanagement compared to Don't Starve Together.

Today I played a little of this game with my friend Avishaan and his roommate.
Despite communicating to each other in the same room (and somehow experience lag while playing on a LAN network) spreading out and exploring proved difficult when we realized that our map orientations were different.*
*Players start out in the same orientation, but Q & E will rotate the map away from the starting orientation (45 degrees counterclockwise and clockwise, respectively).
Steam Game Time: 7.1 hours (total game time)
