Template:All Game Nav First you'll see a short cutscene; a man called Diego will save you from some bullies. Talk to him and ask him anything you like, he will tell you a lot about the Colony.
He'll tell you about The Old Camp, where he resides. After you finish talking to him Diego heads to the Old Camp himself; you can follow him if you like, as he will take you right there and kill any enemies you encounter. If you want the most loot, however, it's best to get to the camp at your own pace.
First, go back towards the dock area and look around. You'll find an Ore nugget (the currency of this world), a Torch and some Beer. Now head back the way Diego was going.
The first creatures you'll encounter are harmless cockroach-like insects called Meatbugs. Kill them and take their meat, as it is necessary for an upcoming quest. Further along you'll find a chest. Open it and take everything inside. Head into the abandoned mine's entrance and grab the Pickaxe. Equip it.
