Remove credo scaling across the board and only scale credos as they relate to their skill chain eg. Fisher and forager would both take 2 per level regardless of if you've done one or the other previously

Let us hearth out of dungeons after being KO'd (or fix infinite spawn rooms once and for all)

Maybe tweak cow model to have downward curving horns to help separating them from bulls by a glance.

You'll need to explain this further, I personally like the satiations being involved, and the drinks used to clear them. How do you 'get insane numbers across the board' and why would 'FEP Bonuses across the board' fix that?
he means taking a look at the many FEP bonuses already in the game, such as table bonus, pepper bonus, hemp bonus, realm bonus, ravenous bonus, and so on. then we wonder why some players have 50,000 in stats and so many others don't want to even bother trying to keep up.

100% agreed

No, please do let me apologize, as I do feel that I'm taking far longer with it than should have been necessary. I very much understand the frustration with the pace of development, as I share in it myself.

I agree with the bonuses and insane stats, but I'm rather fond of satiations. Just make it so they can't be pushed *over* 100% and they're awesome, and while we're at it, add curio satiations (per curio damn it, not per 'class' of curio)

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.

I do think that satiations are a good idea in the abstract and I would be quite loath to outright remove them, but I do think that the current implementation leaves much to be desired, both in that it's fairly arbitrary, in that I don't quite like the way that satiations are naturally removed (though I don't know off the top of my head with what to replace it), and also in the way that drinks work. I feel that drinks should do something different altogether, not just some minor tweak like capping their effects to 100%.

how about time-based satiation replenishments - every day irl, all satiations go down a certain percent.

or, you could do opposed satiations, for example, when i eat something that makes my vegetable satiation go down by 2%, my meat satiation goes back up by 2%. pair all satiations like this and that much more thought is required into what players eat.

really, anything would be better than the beer - tea - wine minigame we currently have going on, once you figure out the system and have the infrastructure the satiation system becomes nothing more than a minor annoyance.
