steel crucible 6 hrs feeding time is unjust and has no point

[bananenmarmelade]

I feel like this topic needs to be pushed again. the state of timeflow and timegates / schedules is really bad atm. i play as a hermit and i have a job. i would still consider myself somewhat dedicated, but the time management just does not work out. I have a hard time understanding why it is not possible to adjust the timers like steel, animal taming (!), silk etc. with the same factor the timeflow was affected. why was this balanced out with the old timeflow for years to now be arbitrarily changed? i would also say the people like me make a significant percentage of the player base (hubris?) and changing main aspects of the game making it worse for those seems very irrational. one could even make a more general argument, that the lategame of h&h is less interessting for most people so why rush to it, but that is a more general point maybe not to be discussed here.

tl;dr: just recalibrate to timegates (or whatever you call them) according to the new timeflow. or at least let us know what the big deal / idea is why it is not done. or just remove them and organize progress like it has been done for cheese in the past (where it imo was waaay less urgent)
