Update Scythe

Adding a soft cap just makes things more tedius.

Yes I like the idea but soft cap is definitely not a way to go. Farming already is hard enough raising quality. Don't make it near impossible for the little guys.

It's not really a nerf, as the only thing you'd be getting compared to now is a straight upgrade - if you wield a sickle, you can have a larger inventory, if you use a scythe, you cap and can speed it up even further. Not really a nerf in any way compared to the current mechanics.

+1 from me. Really want to carry my bucket!

Alternate idea for the counterbalance: Scythe doesn't pick up the seeds automatically and takes stamina & time equal to 3 tiles, but because it's harvesting a 3x3 area (potentially) that's still an improvement.

IMO, both sickle and scythe should softcap the quality of products. The advantage of the sickle is the free hand, and maybe using iron while Scythe uses wroght iron.

I'd rather see some other counterbalance than softcapping harvest quality. Even if the harvest speed is slower the reduction in stamina drain while harvesting would take a lot of the pain out of harvesting. Either that or give the scythe a random chance to break or be blunted and need attention with a whetstone or even hammering at an anvil.

I've been in villages where a single person was harvesting everything for the rest of the townies and it's just cruel how it works currently.

Might I also add that having three tiles harvested and stacked simultaneously is enough of a pain in the ass regarding quality management without gimping things even more.
