    It was a funny joke, because I've been asking for one from the start. It's something that you'd see in Sims. I just always thought, if my "humble" shepherd had a house, I'd want something really opulent in it...like say a hot tub.

    But I imagined the amount of graphics work for a "chair", half submerged in water, which required multiple people getting in and out with different animations, and assumed it simply wouldn't be worth it for them to make something like that.

    But clearly the demand is high for it, given the number of these posts.

    On the rats *and* humans (which was the primary vector). And the rats were so numerous due to the waste situation, and the cross-infection possible due to the hygiene (or rather lack thereof)

    He** yeah, I'd buy a hot tub, and at more than 5 buck too!

    It's one of the few items in the store I'm actually interested in, rather than 'meh, would be nice to have, I guess'

    Maybe since there is enough interest they might actually sell it.

    Yes but how many buckets of water will you need to activate it? :)

    Previous Ultima games had Monty Python references. I foolishly believed that both the coconuts (especially given how much they've been working on emotes/animations lately) and the hot tub were real.

    You know what, they should have a 'Roman Bathhouse' in one of the bigger cities, perhaps Brittany?
