Re: More medicine please.
You are partially correct, they really didn't. HOWEVER, they did have processes based on incorrect observations/assumptions that helped things heal.Peonaz3 wrote:Back in these times people had no clue about bacterias causing infections.. whole that gauze boiling process would feel just.. weird and out of place.![]()
It's funny how often good medicine came out of bad ideas.
jorb: I don't want *your* money. You are rude and boring. Go away.
Sevenless: We already know real life has some pretty shitty game mechanics, it's why we're here instead.
Avu: The end is near it has finally come to pass: I agree with Lunarius...
Shubla: There are also other reasons to play this game than to maximize your stat gain.

Re: More medicine please.
That's bit OT, don't want to sound like ass, but out of historical curiosity
I've never heard that people in medieval ages treated wounds with gauzes first of all.
Now you suggest to boil used gauze? Isn't this something only 1700-1800's thing, times when people was blowing each other with cannons and muskets?
It would be nice if you provide some sources
Gauze do exist in Haven game (which is focusing on medieval age, like 600-900 AD), and let it be. But 2 non-senses on top of each other, is weird and too much, IMO.

And even if that ancient greek kylix hadn't existed, good gameplay mechanics > realism/historical accuracy every time.
