Ultimately youre not going to miss out on anything spectacular from DST by playing SP first, I can promise you that, but do what suits you best. I honestly suggest getting the Singleplayer Bundle and getting DST later. It is more challenging, has a better engine to run on, and of course has Shipwrecked which Klei has confirmed is unlikely to ever be made available in DST due to technical limitations, and seriously missing out on SW is huge if you get really into the game. However I will always stick to Singleplayer except under the circumstances of wanting to play with friends (believe it or not I have one or two of those).

Theres too many small differences to list them all here. Theres costumes in DST that cosmetically change your clothing (this is the one thing I really feel like im missing out on from DST.). If you are used to playing alone it might be in fact hard to cooperate with others, especially if you have your special base design. The pleasant thing: you can easily roll back a day or two if smth goes wrong. Don’t starve feels intended to be played solo and has all the dlcs which combined with the base game I would say is more content then dst. Some Bosses have new fight mechanics even. The only irritating thing is that the game doesnt pause when it usually did in DS and RoG. DST still gets updates, has more base game content, and enemies and bosses usually have more health. You should choose Don’t Starve if you are looking for an engaging solo campaign within an interactive sandbox environment. DST has interesting mechanics, despite not having a campaign mode.

There are extra features such as new mobs and plants to help facilitate more players needing resources and the Bosses are more challenging to balance out the extra players. Don’t Starve Together has more gameplay options than the core game. But a lot of people play DST alone because, for example their friends do not play Don't Starve, but that people want to play with DST exclusive content. Food is more abundant and there are regrowth mechanics not present in the singleplayer game. Posted Concept of Don't Starve Together is 'Multiplayer version of Don't Starve with some extra feathures' and it is nicely balanced for party of 3 or more people. DST has RoG baked in and is currently getting its own expansion, 'A New Reign'.ĭST has many features tailored specifically to make the experience more multiplayer suitable.
