While your suggestion to only gain FEP at a table sounds good on paper, what about characters that havn't yet learned carpentry?

Well they better go pick a few seeds to get discoveries for it.
You can easily gain the required amount of LP without eating anything.

Noobs will be thankful later on when they realize that they didn't burn all of their hunger and satiations in early game eating berries and shit.

any player who play for more than a few days know that. ( days if they're slow :p)
The noob who just spawned doesn't.
We don't want noob to quit after 15 minutes thinking the game is shit.

It would at least need a massively extended beginners quest that steers them toward building a table...

Game is unfriendly enough for noobs.
If somebody is intelligent enough to walk through the spawn room and spawn his character, he probably can build a table too!
These days we have those cool quest things, devs can add "unlock carpentry, build a table to gain stats" parts to it.

No one is going to quit because they cant get FEP by eating. They are not going to know what FEPs even are!!!

Dont listen to granger.

That's their problem, it's the player's job to go out and discover all the things he can do and learn for the future.

Unless it's a gaming 'journalist'


Granger you gotta be joking, a newbie quest for building a table? Every sprucecap in the forest has carpentry, you think they want to store their q1 toads in wooden boxes?

Might give a slight problem at the start, no?
Table and chair can be made within 30 sevonds of spawning into the world if you know what youre looking for and find a bone material shortly after spawn

Anyone can make them, its not a barrier to entry imo

Jesus, "massive extension" literally means splitting the "eat something" objective (that we already have) in three: 1. "eat something to replenish your energy by right clicking it" 2. "build a table" 3. "use a table to feast and raise your atributes".
How stupid do you think other people are? That level of stupid are unlikely to pass the glowing orb stage.

I would suggest an experiment: Sit someone that dosn't know it infront of H&H, shut up and just watch how well they'll do for an hour or two. Then think a moment about the idea that you might have lost touch with how a newbie might feel as you're playing this game for >5 years so stuff is 'normal'.

First thing new people do is see the quest to restore energy, run around eating any berry they see, and fuck up their ability to gain stats for a while.
