Hello everyone. I started a Sunless Sea Let’s Play on my Youtube channel Arthenex Games:
https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCoEnv2Zn_2HgtWh-Ms56NmQ
Note that comments, tips, and suggestions are welcome, but please don’t spoil the game for me, this is my first playthrough of it.
Here is the first episode, I’ll update this thread as I post more episodes:
Sorry for the late response, everyone must all be off playing Sunless Sea. I heartily congratulate you on your contribution to the community and hope that more people subscribe to your channel.
The video was good, although I was surprised at how quickly you were able to stumble across the Salt Lions (those massive Sphinxes at Zee). They are a huge source of income early on if you work for the foremen there (provided you can amass a spare 200 echoes). Do be careful with your dealings with the Cheery Man, if you spend the money he gives you without getting him his cargo he will most certainly try to kill you (or so I am lead to believe).

Thanks for the kind words. I’m having a lot of fun with the game so far. I appreciate the tip about the salt lions, I’ll have to see if I can make that work for me. I’ll post another video tomorrow (hopefully I can do 1 a day).
Here is Episode 2, the adventures of Captain Arthenex continue!
And here is Episode 3, things are starting to look grim.
No! Captain Arthenex dead at Zee with all hands. The sorrows…
Do be warned that as you were unable to give your map to your next captain that everything (save the coastline) will be moved around on the map. So, for instance, the Salt Lions will no likely be near Venderblight anymore. Shame too, that was a great boon.

Yes, the Zee can be treacherous. But that’s ok, my next captain will do better. (I hope anyway) :)
Here is Episode 5, the adventures of a new captain begin, my he live longer than the last one!
Labyrinth of Tigers is available once at least one captain has died at 'zee.
I figured it had to be something like that, thanks for the tip!
Here is Episode 9. Despite what I say at the beginning of this episode, there are some interesting new discoveries in this one. But there is also significant danger.
Here is part 13. Note that this is something of an interlude where I show my basic method of grinding out money without doing additional exploring.
