Stelagel my dear old friend, warm regards to you too my dude!
I wholeheartedy agree with your post. Especially in regard to the fruit trees. I know that I have tried twice now to drum up support them, and @Bodin did once also. And we can see in the our two respective threads below, the support in favor of them was overwhelmingly positive, even almost unanimous! Even if we reskinned some of the existing flora such as the grey lupine and false mandrake trees.
Survival is not just about picking up sticks and eating handfuls of insects, that is a scavenger mindset. It is about creating a sustainable and renewable source of food and water.
Oh absolutely! I also enjoy the quiet days on the base performing routine tasks. And that task diversity is part of what makes this game so enthralling, addictive and downright enjoyable. One day we are doing odd jobs around the base, the next we are slaying monstrous formidable creatures, building palaces, conversing with friends, or venturing across a steamy jungle or warm desert sands. Man I love this game.
Yup. I know I will be buying the Battle Pass as soon as it is released, and as much as I can on the Black Lotus Bazzare too.
