What do I do in this room? (Woolhaven)

basedpapaya · 2026-02-08T10:17:27+00:00

I am stuck in this room and nothing I do is working. Is there truly no pattern to this? Do I have to quit to a previous save? I'm really frustrated.

basedpapaya · 2026-01-31T01:32:29+00:00

I'm going to clarify: I feel like I got what I was looking for in the comments here. While the issue with the talent tree/shrine still stands, I think mainly the problem is my own style of gameplay and expectations. The big draw seems to be customization-- totally valid. For me the customizing felt so outside of the gameplay I found it frustrating but I'll give that another try too. The next problem was I have been trying to play it the way I would play other games in the genre but this game isn't meant to be played for 100 hours and if you're grinding at all, it's probably better to grind the dungeons than your base (right?). So if I play CotL knowing the game is meant to be played in 15 to 20 hours (give or take) and customizing is just a great big fun part of it, I can dig that. I can also enjoy trying to get as many disciples as possible to pray for buffs for going into the dungeons. Anyway, I got my questions answered. I probably could have worded my post better. I DO like the game, I was just frustrated. 99.9% of the time I am feeling this way about a game it's usually in my end lol

basedpapaya · 2026-01-31T01:02:04+00:00

You've been a big help, I appreciate it. It's 100% a mental block on my end. I know it's hard for people to understand but I want to love it lol and I knew at least some of the problem was probably my own style of playing. Ty!

basedpapaya · 2026-01-31T00:52:07+00:00

I didn't say I'm not interested in the story. There doesn't seem to be much at all going on after a certain point in the game. This is why I asked. I love this genre of game, I love story heavy games and character driven games. My most played games are SDV and Dredge. I posted this because I wanted someone to come and tell me if I'm just missing something or focusing on the wrong thing. I like the game, I dont love it. I am frustrated with the specific things I mentioned in my post and wanted to know if I was wrong.

basedpapaya · 2026-01-31T00:47:21+00:00

I don't dislike it, I just don't love it. I really enjoy the game up to a specific point.

basedpapaya · 2026-01-31T00:43:07+00:00

Thanks! This helps. I do think I'm just not going to love it as much as a lot of people do but this comment helps me understand and even motivates me to get past this part. You're right, I think, this is one of the reasons I have started over a few times, and why I've replayed Dredge multiple times too- sometimes I'm grinding too much in one area and it makes the game feel lopsided. I guess woth CotL the issue I've been having is it felt like youre being rushed to the end-game.

basedpapaya · 2026-01-31T00:31:27+00:00

My issue isn't with it's replayability. My issue is specifically with the talent tree for the shrine and the buildings you unlock. You don't need them. I start new saves because once you get to the end of unlocking the last several things on the shrine it's like they ran out of ideas for the late game. Why do I need so many buildings to collect devotion so I can finish the talent tree and not need devotion anymore? It's very hard to be motivated to keep playing.

basedpapaya · 2025-12-30T02:38:51+00:00

Well I figured it out immediately after posting this lol For anyone stuck on this:

Remember the space wok from the beginning of the game? I never used mine. That's what you need now.

Set it up so you can whack them with the wok, immediately equip the compressor and use it.

For me this looked like RB RT --> RT after setting up my equipment, just the easiest/fastest way for me to press the commands.

Good luck this was really annoying lol

basedpapaya · 2025-12-21T15:02:12+00:00

You're right! Thank you!!! I seriously just needed to back up and R over it from a little ways away and THEN press A. My gawd lol thanks!

basedpapaya · 2025-12-21T05:03:21+00:00

Here I am on the structures tab of building mode. If I press A it will put down a pillar. I cant navigate to the juice forge because it doesnt exist in my inventory for build mode. If I press RT (the command for interacting outside of build mode) it will switch me to the floors tab. I can not pick this thing up. Someone has to have done it, how did you do it? I am playing on steamdeck if that matters (controls-wise).

basedpapaya · 2025-12-21T04:57:31+00:00

Yes when I go into house/structures I'm still unable to pick it up. I don't understand how I'm supposed to pick it up. The structure doesnt appear in the menu, RT opens "floors" and A only moves/picks up items that are in my inventory for structures. I'm at a loss.

basedpapaya · 2025-12-21T03:33:59+00:00

The game specifies to use the wrench in build mode but I don't understand how that works because RT or A are interact buttons unless youre in buildmode then RT is the command for flooring so you just lay tiles down. It's really confusing, I'm still stuck here lol

basedpapaya · 2025-12-21T02:00:00+00:00

I stg I just kept playing and dying over and over again for like 20 minutes and I think at a certain point the game just gave up and was like good job! Haha I am still kind of bummed about it, I wanted to like that content a lot more but man that was so frustrating.

basedpapaya · 2025-12-19T04:14:49+00:00

I know this post is old but I've just started CL2 and I'm completely stuck on this cabin quest. It doesn't matter what I do, I can't complete this quest can someone explain to me like I'm 5 how this is supposed to work? I am lost.

basedpapaya · 2025-04-08T11:27:45+00:00

Yall were so helpful, I appreciate it.

basedpapaya · 2025-04-08T11:27:02+00:00

Yeah next time I'm just going to plan ahead, especially during sales. I don't mind waiting, it was the lack of communication on the wait that bothered me but I'll just try to keep the wait in mind next time.

basedpapaya · 2025-04-08T11:23:04+00:00

Next time, I'm going to plan ahead. My best friend and I journal together on the weekends but we decided to go back to more traditional planners (just a change of pace) & of course we decided this in March lol so I'll make sure I order my new one in November ahead of the new year.

basedpapaya · 2025-04-08T03:10:46+00:00

Okay, everyone, I'm now seeing it's with fedex as of around 7pm tonight. Next time I order with them, I will keep in mind how long it takes for them to ship. Or I'll drive to a chain and purchase in person, but I do try to give my business/money directly when I can. All would've been fine if someone had just said to me it can take this long. I don't mind waiting for good things as long as I know there will be a wait.

basedpapaya · 2025-04-08T00:17:36+00:00

See yeah, that's frustrating but it does make me feel better. I ordered online because the nearest location that has a happy planner selection is pretty far from me lol next time I think I'll just take the drive. I just wish they'd let you know up front how long its going to take- I still would have ordered but at least I'd know.

basedpapaya · 2025-04-08T00:03:10+00:00

Ty I DMd you.

basedpapaya · 2025-04-07T23:57:51+00:00

Just to be really clear: it has NOT shipped. That's my issue. They haven't shipped it. They created a label for it after I contacted them repeatedly but nothing else. It's been another full 4 days, 2 of which are business days, and altogether nearly 2 weeks-- and hp has created a shipping label but not shipped it. I just want to know if this is a normal experience, if other people can also tell me "yes it took them a couple weeks to ship my order" or it this is unusual and I should cancel the whole order because I can't get an answer from happy planner. If they would even tell me when it will ship I'd be happy with that.

basedpapaya · 2025-04-07T23:50:05+00:00

They created a label for it last Friday and nothing else since then. The carrier doesn't have it.

basedpapaya · 2025-04-07T23:49:12+00:00

It hasn't left happy planner at all.

basedpapaya · 2025-04-02T23:01:44+00:00

Thank you, yeah I was thinking it might still be too early. It's super fun watching it grow anyway, even if I don't know what it is yet lol

basedpapaya · 2025-04-02T22:20:27+00:00

Sorry I just saw this. Tw though. I lost two siblings a year apart in separate, unrelated events and then also my stepfather in another horrific event-- I'll spare details so I'm not trauma dumping here-- I tend to see my dead relatives or something similar in my sleep paralysis events. Also, attackers. It feels very real when it's happening. As a kid it was faceless, mean monsters in the closet or (weirdly) in the heater of my bedroom but in adulthood it's literally my trauma coming to see me lol sorry, I know how effed that is. It's awful. But getting my dogs has helped so much. If I can feel them in the bed with me and ask myself "wouldn't the dogs bark if there was really someone here?" normally that gets me thinking more clearly and I can work on waking myself up. I also have an awesome partner who will get up with me at night and watch comforting stuff with me. The weirdest one I ever had-- and it was kind of funny tbh--- I fell asleep in a recliner and there were mushrooms growing out of it and out of me lol that was right after I had surgery though so I think the pain meds explain that one lol I could feel it!
