Nerf movement by boats

[shubla]

Boats are too easy method for moving around.
No stamina drain, no hunger drain, cheap, very fast method of traveling, rivers everywhere...
We have horses, wagons, rafts, travel by foot should also be encouraged.
Boats have absolutely no downsides, they are too OP. They must be nerfed.

For example, make them more expensive to build and maintain (tar)
Add some stamina drain for rowboats and such.

Perhaps some kind of currents should also be added to rivers, so it would be more difficult to move upstream than downstream, though this may require a world reset.

Must be rebalanced, but not nerfed.

lol what, everyone travels by horse, going by rivers on boats is super inefficient.

Oh right, it's a shubla thread...

1. No boats aren't too easy method of moving around. Only on the very beginning.
2. It takes time to cut down tree or two and turn those into boards and blocks (AND IT REQUIRES TOOLS OMGOMGOMGOMG!)[AND HOW MUCH STAMINA DRAINING! CANT DO IT WITHOUT KUKSU OR WATER CONTAINRER!]
3. People find coracles a better way than boats despite being slower!
4. If You're doing nomad, You can see how much IT IS NOT OP.
5. Wagons are shit compared to anything else nowadays.
6. Traveling by foot is basically traveling on wild horse (if can find any) or on domesticated horse.
7. Rafts. LOL.
8. It's just a stupid boat and You're trying to make a second knarr out of it? C'mon.

So you say that maybe horses and oracles should be re-balanced as well?

Rebalance your post since not only your idea is leading to nowhere, like it seems You don't even play the game itself anymore or just well:

arent boats like the only way of travel across water for beginners? also everyone uses a horse if its avalible

[azrid]

there is also shallows across rivers or swimming narrow parts

[GamingRAM]

I agree, boats are rather OP. No acceleration, no draining, just a universal form of transportation.
