And a final one- yes this is really something that was suggested- the ability to grow a garden to maintain food. S…M…H.

It's an original idea, it serves a purpose and it also doesn't make any sense. Throwing all the bear meat you got into the grinder and eat bearsausage with maple syrup. I just love it.

This is a survival game. Not a camping game. Sausage maker is absolutely useless. You would smoke meat. You don’t need something you can’t carry and that serves no practical purpose other than luxury and flavor. There is not knowledgeable survivalist in the world who would carry a sausage maker.

I wouldn't have guessed when I woke up this morning I'd be defending sausage machines. But I'll gladly take a stab at it. A sausage maker provides sausages. Sausages provides variety in the The Long Chunk of meat on a stone by the campfire-universe. They can also be dried to last nearly forever. But so can regular meat you say? Well, with some imagination a sausage machine could give us the option to mix the meat we harvest with other foods. As mentioned above, the dried bearplesyrup sausage, with enough calories to last you two days (and that includes a good long rope climb). Or perhaps you'd care for some birch wolfbark sausage? And for emergencies, the old man's rabbitweiner. 3 hours ago, Lord of the Long Dark said: There is not knowledgeable survivalist in the world who would carry a sausage maker. I agree, we should place it stationary next to the milling machine. A decent handheld meatgrinder would do fine for Will's and Astrid's normal excursions.

Who cares if it's unnecessary if it's fun? Collect seawater and intentionally boil it dry to gather salt. Crafting recipe at the meat grinder, 1kg meat, 1 fresh gut, and a salt pile = 1kg cured sausage. Doesn't have to be hyper-realistic, I mean we can craft bullets without primers after all. Just require the player to jump through a few hoops that are at least marginally sensible. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sausage making being one, thereby including drying/curing meat which has been requested from the community for such a long time. I suppose an issue with introducing sausage making behind a late-game hurdle is that lots of the factory-made food will be ruined by then so you won't be able to create all the fanciful stuff you can imagine, like the tomatomarinated moose sausage. But yeah, I'd buy a pure sausage dlc too, just for the heck of it. 14 hours ago, Leeanda said: 😂😂😂 Please could I have 2 kilos of each? Actually could you make that 4kilos each? Will do!

First- because it’s ridiculous but mostly because it violates the genius design of minimal duplicity in the game. There is no reason for a sausage maker. Remember this is a survival game. Not a camping game. If it was a camping game then hey- make s’mores. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bimbobjoejr. Posted September 22, 2021 Share Posted September 22, 2021 I saw at one point where someone suggested adding hollow point ammunition to use against bears and such. Umm? Those kinds of bullets wouldn't do a thing, full metal jacketed bullets maybe, but not a hollow point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord of the Long Dark Posted September 23, 2021 Share Posted September 23, 2021 Hate to say it but spray paint is right up there.

The vegetables you mention grow about at the frost point if not just a few degrees below. They will not survive -40 blizzards. Much less weeks at a time below 20F. Even cabbage which is particularly hardy won’t grow below consistent 25F temps. Edited September 24, 2021 by Lord of the Long Dark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Things can be planted in containers/ pots like the bath tub in Molly's basement! If I remember correctly in story mode the temp is not that severe anyway!

So you are supposed to dig through feet snow past the permafrost to get soil for plants with no calories and how do you keep them watered for weeks and months while you are in other regions?? Absolutely ridiculous. Come on man. Come on. besides In the easy levels there is so much an abundance of canned and nutritious food there is no need for a useless garden and in interloper there is no way to stay put long enough to maintain it and even if you did it’s because you have adequate hunting anyway. Growing food in the Canadian permafrost lol. Please. Edited September 24, 2021 by Lord of the Long Dark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
