AWESOMEoutof10's Adam DeMarco runs around, naked and free, in the open world, multiplayer survival game Rust. He finds pigs made of chicken and scary men with guns. "I’m as naked as the day I was born. As far as the game is concerned, having just logged onto Rust‘s servers for the first time, I suppose this is kind of the day I was born. I’m standing in a nondescript wilderness, surrounded by trees, boulders, and some roaming wildlife. I’m holding a rather large rock in my hands, and my inventory says that I’m also in possession of a bandage and a torch. I have no clothes, and therefore no pockets, so I’d prefer not to know exactly where I’m storing these items."
