Wish you were here

A small request; When determining your gluttony values for foodstuffs, please adhere to the effort versus reward philosophy. More difficult recipes, using harder to acquire ingredients and more ingredients should have a higher gluttony value. Or even a more reliable gluttony value.

Perfectly understandable to need more time imho, a lot of the mechanics are currently like a tangled ball of string and I imagine it will take some time to get all the loops out. So, crappy pep talk out.

I didn't mind the way the updates were going, however I was under the impression that you knew what you were doing and had a purpose, looks like I was wrong.
Don't stuff it up because of a few whiners guys.
"Salem the crafting MMO with permadeath" that's why I started playing.

You guys simply need to hire a third person to explain to you how retarded a lot of your decisions are. You have a lot of potential here but your egos are ruining it. I'm sure you know who Notch is, yes? He did an interview once where he admitted that he thought he was one of the best programmers ever and that he didn't realize until modders started taking over that he was mediocre at best. Because of this he got his act together, hired some people to butt heads with him, and the game went on to sell millions.

You need to find someone that is going to talk **** about everything you do in order to get yourselves asking "Why does he think this idea is so terrible?" which will hopefully lead into you giving it a second examination and finding ways to improve it. Right now it feels like one of you comes up with an awful idea and the other is too busy giving a reach around to add any common sense or logic to the development of said idea.

Hire a third person for the love of god.

I would like to echo these sentiments in the most constructive, supportive, respectful way toward the game and the devs.

What is it that people have such a problem with though?

The mushroom thing, while unnecessary isn't anywhere near as bad as people make out.

The changes to purity were a positive thing in my opinion because gaining purity was simply too easy before.

Gluttony needs a lot of work, but they have made positive changes in that direction...

I think people just want a game where they can be totally retarded and still be successful at. I'd prefer it if that didn't become the situation.

I have my complaints with the games mechanics, but they are to do with defences and effort vs reward in many game aspects.

I support this anti-update 100%
Take your time, think it over as best you can and don't feel shy to ask us for opinions before heading into any specific direction.

I don't think they'll be running out anytime soon. Avu filled their tanks several times over since they started up in 2009.
