Stygian: Outer Gods Beginner Survival and Combat Guide
Stygian: Outer Gods combines exploration, resource use and combat. The publisher describes scavenging supplies, crafting tools and remedies, and making choices with consequences.

This guide separates confirmed uses from undocumented item locations and exact status effects.

Stygian: Outer Gods Talent Cards: Gold vs Silver
Stygian: Outer Gods uses talent cards instead of fixed starting classes. The developer describes Gold cards as core skills that can open new interactions, while Silver cards amplify existing abilities. Examples include speaking with the dead and moving heavy objects. Card choice changes accessible actions, so a route possible for one build may be unavailable for another.

These sources confirm that mental state matters, but they do not publish a complete meter formula, recovery value or ending threshold.

Stygian: Outer Gods Crafting and Resource Basics
The publisher describes scavenging supplies and crafting essential tools and remedies as part of survival. The Souls of the Silent Tide change log added consumables and recipes. That establishes a resource and crafting loop, but the cited announcements do not specify exact material quantities or guaranteed item locations. Verify those details in the current build.
