I dont think it would be involved in the crafting process but in some form of 'breeding' process.

If Domestication references a stat it's most likely to be Charisma. At least that's what my money is on.
So if you want cows, you have to smile at them?

If you think the full extent of Charisma is a nice smile then I can't even begin to explain my reasons for thinking Charisma is applicable.

In this game, I have no idea, because so far I'm told it's a placeholder that is just useful for getting appointed chieftain.

I agree with Chak, seems resonable to me to use Charisma as stat for breeding (unless there'll be a new skill). And it would give an use to Charisma that is quite useless beyond 25 now :P

Charisma isn't a placeholder. It's a stat the devs put in because they intend to use it later. Trust me, Having grown up on a farming raising and breeding farm animals I can assure you that the way you treat your animals will have an impact on the quality of product you receive from them.

I don't think that word means what you think it does. In fact you just gave the definition of a placeholder as an example of something not being a placeholder. :|
I once dreamt of crafting beautiful thane's rings... then I discovered Big Bear Bangers. Now I smash beautiful things.

Exactly. I'm glad that charisma (and, I assume, psyche) will have some practical uses later on, but let's not really stretch it, and I can't see how raising cows can have anything to do with charisma.
