More things to do in the Winter!

Postby psibomber » Mon Sep 02, 2019 4:16 am

A lot of players I've seen on Haven and Hearth say they'll hibernate through the winter but in my opinion we can't have that, they'll get bored and stop playing on winter week.

That's why I say we NEED to add Snow Bunnies!

Image

A small, one-slot curiosity made with 2-3 snow, 2 leaves, and 2 fruit type items ^_^ when you drop it on the ground it should bounce around like a live bunny! It would be super cute and kawaii!

Image

Also a possibility: Yuletide trees! Made with a few pine blocks or a pine log, and decorated with other curiosities like snow, glass marbles, new curiosities like Stars and ornaments made with glass and metal nuggets and pigments. A Large curiosity, that way the people who do want to snooze away winter can do so with style :)

Just more things to do in the winter exclusively and are easier to do in the winter due to the abundance of snow would be great. :) That way we still have something to look forward to every time that season rolls around. ^^ Love it so far TY

Ooh, I like both of these!

Personally, I'd like to have some forageables unique to winter. Maybe some Perfect Snowflakes, like how fall has Perfect Autumn Leaves. Also something similar to the snow yams and crystal berries in Stardew Valley?

Perfect Snowflakes would be awesome. Or the ability to build Snowmen or ice sculpture decoratives, winter gives a lot of possibilities :)

I agree ... atm there is little to do except look at the snow and ice, no forageables, no farming ... just standing around watching your livestock starve to death ... :P

I'm sure Jorb will introduce a winter curio but yeah some winter forageables would be nice.

I think having 1 week every 2 months for players to rest for a bit is reasonable.

We need lots of winter-only curiosities to replace all the bugs that newbies can't catch.
