Food Updates
Posted: Sun Jun 12, 2022 7:48 pm
So we've had a Kudos thread for this yet, but not a Feedback thread - I'd just like to take a moment to echo the Kudos thread here by saying that I do adore the update: a lot of the new icons are really nice, and it's great to have new options to make and esp. to be able to have more than 2-4 custom foods in your inventory now before stuff starts overriding each other.
Buuuuuuut.
It's kind of a pain, to see how much work goes into making any of this stuff (and if you aren't just making sausages or the 2-3 other roasted meat items, it's a LOT of work and a LOT of raw materials) it kind of hurts to find out that you've just sunk that effort into something that restores 5-10% food, tops. Fruit Medleys sink 120% Food worth of ingredients into making 3 items that restore 10% each, for example. Bone Broth is the only one I'd consider carrying as a replacement for food rations, and that's just because it restores 10% water in addition to 10% food - a poor man's Sustenance Potion.
I think it'd be good to tweak the numbers here, given how difficult it is to assemble the ingredients for a lot of these things. They should be made on-par with (or at least nearly on par with) Food Rations at least.
