Willbonney Posted October 19, 2020 Share Posted October 19, 2020 (edited) There seems to be thousands of junk books in the game, and thousands of junk hours you spend "passing time." Why not make it so you can read common books before burning. Maybe have a feat that if you read so many junk books, learning from manuals and/or guide type books has more impact. Mark the book "read" if you're previously finished it so you can't just use one book and reread it over and over again. Could even have a dozen or so rare books spread around the world folks can collect and keepsakes, or another thing to track, how many rare books found. Edited to add: Possibly, to be able to use the "Pass Time" function, you must have a book or find that deck of cards you can hear shuffling now.

Omnijack Posted October 19, 2020 Share Posted October 19, 2020 I'd love to be able to read skill books in 30-minute increments, not just 1 hour blocks. It'd help me sooo much with cooking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

odizzido Posted October 19, 2020 Share Posted October 19, 2020 Or character suffers from a debilitating memory issue. That's why you need the full hour and also why if only read for 59 minutes you have to read it all again because it's forgotten. On the plus side our character commits the entire book to memory so you can memorise how to make ammo in only a few hours. But yes the game would benefit from being able to read for 40mins, throw on a new steak, and get back to reading Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Willbonney Posted October 19, 2020 Author Share Posted October 19, 2020 Maybe newspapers could also be incorporated with the reading idea, make them shorter 15 or 20 minute reads. Would make use out of them after fire start 3 and you don't need plugs anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
