(Balance) Early game forageables

Postby TerraSleet » Thu Jun 29, 2017 11:39 am

I want to provide some feedback regarding two main forageable food sources early game: lingonberries and blueberries.

Their satiety is incredibly bad compared to every other food - 30% chance to drop Forage by 5%. Almost every source of food early game - Roast Meat, ants, berries, apples etc - is in the Forage category and if you don't understand how satiety works (i.e. every new player that didn't study the wiki for hours before playing) these two items alone will drop your Forage satiety to <50%, making stat progression very slow. This makes these berries an insidious noob-trap. Also bear in mind that new players usually don't have any ways to fix their satiety (tea, food variety, etc).

No other early game food that I know of drops satiety this much, so I suggest the satiety be drastically lowered on Lingonberries and Blueberries.

Agree entirely. Will look at that for sure.

Or maybe game needs more foods that drop satiety fast so even noobs without drinks can reset them.
