What are Memetic Specializations?

Provide Boosts and Upgrades

All Memetic Specializations List (Updated For Way of Winter) | Once Human|Game8 (103)

Memetic Specializations are unlockable boosts and upgrades that can improve a variety of gameplay elements, depending on which Specialization you choose.

Some Specializations can improve certain facilities or workbenches, which can help you get more resources thanks to increased material yield or better damage to the stats of crafted gear.

Other Specializations also come with new craftable blueprints, which let you make items that increase the number of materials you can get while gathering resources in the wild.

Divided by Types and Categories

Further down, Specializations are categorized by what role they belong to. For example, Prospector Specializations are tied to mining and logging, while Star Chef Specializations are tied to cooking.

Can Dictate Your Playstyle
