"Matches are a finite resource. This nifty torch trick will help you conserve your firestarters. It has server me well on interloper and is a good habit to get into when playing The Long Dark on any difficulty. I hope this helps to elevate your survival experience.

I did not mention this in the video, but if you are lucky enough to find a magnifying glass and the sun is out, that is a great way to start a totally free fire!

Common tactic that feels very gamey and stupid. stuborn devs who wont add starting fires by friction, firebow. Lazy or ignornant. not sure which

"but you have to carry a torch around, and that only has a limited burn time."
You can put the torch out. Just light the torch when you want to light a fire. Also as prior commentor said, pull torches from the fire to have a few, and juggle them. Drop the lit torch before it goes out, and light another torch with the one you dropped while it's on the ground. As long as it isn't windy, you should have an infinite firestarter if you play your cards right. That saves you matches on difficulties like Interloper.

Can even recycle those burnt-out torches for a stick, if you're not already swamped with them. Seriously, you can have infinite torch easily when awake.

Pull a ton of torches from a lit fire, and light the next when it's low. Sticks are abundant. Take the fire with you. Most OP mechanic in game.

Don't use matches to start a fire, use matches to light a torch to start a fire then carry it around lmfao

Good stuff, I love how many items in this game are multipurpose. :)
