The devs likely don't know much about making dams and logging. If they did they probably wouldn't know much about making video games. It takes time to learn things and you only have so many years.

In real life I would be hesitant to do so because you would be eating spray paint. Is that healthy? Of course people eat little bits of lead if they hunt with lead bullets/shot, but I wouldn't want to do that either. It just seems like a bad idea.

Cool I always enjoy reading about updates even if I am waiting for episode five to be done before I play through it.

I am pleased with everything you've done to make the story mode as enjoyable as you can. I am quite sure I will enjoy it quite a lot when it's time.

You could also have it so that you could just drag the lantern on top of the jerry can and it would move the fuel to there. Or drag the jerry can onto the lantern, or any container on to any other container to transfer liquids.

Paradox games change while you play, and often not in a good way. Game breaking bugs are super common with them which makes their games unbuyable for me.

I am fine with greenhouses, as long as they require constant heating. Letting the plants get to -20 or whatever should kill them

I still feel this game could significantly benefit from someone going through everything and tidying things up. They could sit down and wonder what benefit there is to clicking on something 56 times as apposed to just once or a few times. If there isn't any then they could look at how to make it more efficient.

Stupidest? A game mode where you start underground. The screen is black, you can't move, but since breathing isn't a thing in this game you live forever. Oh, and the menu won't come up so if you're on console you have to go reset the system. It sounds awful.

No. It's right for game balance. Quartering is not something you usually do. And almost never with small animals like deer and wolves. It allows you to harvest animals in the safety of a shelter. And you get the guts + hide for free. In return bags are heavier than the pure meat and they decay very fast.

I dislike when things are so far off reality that people don't even understand what's happening "because gameplay". I think there are better ways to do it.

Personally I would just freeze all my meat which would preserve it without the effort of smoking.

I like the idea of smoking/drying meat to reduce weight at the cost of time and resources for travel preparation though.

Oh that's very interesting. It seems like fungi in general have so much potential. I think we're going to need more efficient sources of protein in the future that those obtained from animal sources. Im not an expert but it seems like mushrooms and fungi would be a very efficient source of nutrition.

We already have them. Things like lentils and beans are good sources of protein. If we are specifically talking about protein, mushrooms are vastly inferior. I could get into land/water use and emissions but since I don't know what your metrics are I can generalise it and go by cost.

In alberta, canada I can get about 100g of protein from a steak which costs 13.50

For the same price, I could get 615g of protein from lentils. I am pretty sure meat is subsidised here too for some reason so the reality is even more in favour of lentils.

Yeah there is a difference between real life and games. It's relatively easy to misclick or double click by accident on some raw meat, but it's pretty much impossible to eat it by mistake in real life. It would just never happen. I think it's reasonable to account for this. Perhaps a menu option to turn on/off confirmation boxes.

Imperial units are still use a lot in Canada. Especially in the construction and aerospace industries. 

It's awful, but somewhat understandable as we only finished switching in the 80s. I remember going into the hardware store and someone asked me a question and I said I needed a 56cm thing and they looked at me like I was speaking klingon. But I will be part of the change and stick with metric like the rest of the world does. We will only get stuck on some inferior system if people allow it.

Also is it really 50 feet? It's so embarrassing that a canadian company would use feet...

I have it on GoG so I don't have any either. Which is great. I hate having that crap popping up on my screen and getting in the way as I try to do stuff.

Bad controls, instant death spots, and I suppose lack of customisation which prevents me from enjoying the survival mode.

The original unreal back in the day, currently STALKER:Anomaly. Witcher 3, particularly around skellige, is excellent.

Possibly. The other possibility is that there was a little update and it appeared.

I know who's work bench that is...

Rabbit starvation happens when you don't eat the organ meat. I have always assumed we eat the organs. Scurvy can be solved with pine needles I believe. From what I remember from school at least.

I voted no because I won't play it when it comes out. I will play it sometime after episode 5 releases when the game is all patched up and complete.

Almost anything would be better than the current system where people have to know how the system works before they can use clothing properly. You can see how much of an issue it is when you can put on additional clothing and then actually get colder.

Personally I would have windproof add up as you go in. So wearing 2WP and +3C on layer 1 would give you those stats, and then wearing another 2WP and +3C coat would give you 4WP to the internal +3C but then 2WP to the outer +3C because the inner layer doesn't protect the outer layer. It would be similar to real life that way, as in real life wearing a wind breaker on the inside layer is the least effective thing you can do as it won't provide wind protection to the clothing holding heat on the outside. I would explain more but this will never get implemented as it's way too complicated for hinterland to consider.

Yeah I noticed this as well last time I played.

You can cancel harvesting at any time with escape.

I would very much dislike having using a firebow limited. It would make it almost useless for me, in my experience.
