    mattered.

    Sorry to be snarky but a lot of us, including my husband, were ver excited for the alcohol system. It's great crafting it. But our extensive cellar full of spirits, beer, and wine is collecting a serious amount of dust.

    Why?

    I hope interactivity and synergy between systems gets paid attention to some day.

    You can have a billion shallow systems, and the game will still be shallow.

    Start hooking them together and you've got something special.

    100%! However, all we have ever seen is to the contrary.

    An endless implementation of new systems that never get finished and certainly have no synergy between them. It's honestly disconcerting that despite a vocal outcry to fix current game design we keep getting the introduction of half-baked ideas.

    Yes, but what would we want the alcohol system as a further game loop?

    It should be used as in other games and what it was originally built for, to complement food, potions, and other buffs. It could be used to give almost if not better buffs than devotionals have. Buffs you could use for adventuring, crafting, fishing, etc etc.

    Me too!! i am using all of my resources to make whiskey casks. I heard Chris metion +4 adventure level for 25 year whiskey shots that last 4 minutes. Not an end game consumable, but this is great for new players.

    4 minutes is hardly worth the effort, especially if it makes you drunk as a side effect. It literally takes a whole real life year to make 25 year whiskey. New player or not, as someone who's made 25 year whiskey it feels like that would be an awful waste of my time. Especially when you can get a similar buff from shrines (a buff I've never felt the need to use)
