I dread food every time I roll a new character. Its only purpose seems to be to nag a player to remain at the keyboard. Its an old, antiquated system. I'm sure almost all our vet players would agree they don't want everyone else to be AFK though.
That said, its not nearly as bad as the experience you raised and I think we'll have a look into why you were turned off. |

food adds a survival element to the game. It's supposed to make venturing into unfamiliar areas more difficult. You have to prepare in advance for a long journey.
Even with create food and create spring hunger takes a toll on ranking groups and causes lots of pk since the power dynamic can shift based on who picked up a foot or an ear and ate it. I turn on party members when they're weakened from starvation all the time and you do too. |

Food by itself is just a nuisance but combined with the rest of the dynamics of the game it makes things more challenging. As mentioned for PvE but also PvP. Food is in top 3 most annoying things to get when wanted. Many times I've been in a situation where I had to run somewhere to grab food and my enemy was able to spot me in public. There have even been times I've died or come very close due to hunger fucking up my movements. As far as AFK I don't see how hunger/thirst affects AFK at all? Once you daydream hunger/thirst doesn't hurt you anyway and I've always included hunger/thirst in any AFK triggers. |
