One Hour One Life Forums

Another attempt to outsmart the malicious deity Jason.
Congratulations on your ingenuity.

Ohol was different because it was very non-linear.
You didn't know who you would be and what your life would be like.
Jason's patches mean there is less and less variety in the game.
It is never a good way.

I know well why I'm bored - Jason limited my options.
He gave me nothing in return for what he took.
Seriously, I don't want to play game calculating exactly water, oil, iron, berries.
For me it's boring as hell.
The fact that I can't do something because I am limited by race, space for tools, some funny "homesick" is boring as hell.
The fact that I have to do something, although I don't feel like it, is even more boring.
Jason has been experimenting for months.
Before calculating exactly how many berries and bowls of water we need per player, the most loyal players will abandon the game.
See how many new items were introduced by those who created games on the Ohol engine.
And what did we get?
Swords, sticks fences, rift, weakening, limiting, reducing.

Hungry work on cutting down trees was introduced in times of rift.
This was to prevent griefs from cutting all useful trees.
Jason forgot the pines by mistake.
And so it remains today.
There is no longer a rift and the danger that griefs will cut down all the trees, but hungry work remains, no one knows why.

The only thing left of this game is the unique interpersonal interaction.
That's why I still play, although sometimes I feel bored and ask myself, is it a waste of time?

Dodge, whatever you say, the game has become boring and tedious. There is nothing good about being artificially limited. It's just frustrating that I can't do any work, although I know how to do it.

The world that Jason created is terribly illogical and full of invisible walls:
"You can't even break the leaf in the wrong biomes",
"You can use only a few tools",
"Even for 10 generations (about 200 years) you will not learn another language",
"You can  have children only near your family well",
and now: "You can find iron only near your well, but only a little"
"If you eat all fruit from a wild bush, this bush will die."
Seriously? How do wells affect fertility in real life and who water the wild bushes?

I get the impression that you don't play too much. Do you really think we will call a meeting to decide what to do with one piece of iron? And this is supposed to be interesting? Sooner we die of hunger than take a group decision.

Anything that is forced on will not work. So leadership doesn't work. What's weird about that?

Finally, if you tell people that less is more, you should become a politician (you just have to work out, because you haven't convinced anyone yet).

These changes made by Jason are like a broken leg.
Does a broken leg create interesting stories?
For sure.
Only after some time it turns out that you can't really do many things you have done before and are much more limited with a broken leg.
In addition, a broken leg is not pleasant at all.
Unfortunately, due to these "corrections" we are forced to limp with a broken leg.
Jason thinks at the moment: "It didn't work? Maybe you still have to break a few fingers on your left hand? This will finally be a challenge!"

I wonder how long it will last?

Jeez, when does Jason finally ADD something cool?
Last year is a constant limitation of what was.
I liked the bucket with dung - something useful and harmless at last.

So one equals zero.
This explains the lack of restrictions on empty servers with one player.
Yes.

Jason hears everything and is always around.
He hears the cry of the worm you pull from the soil.
Soon he will punish us all for throwing worms.

I also liked the homogeneous cities.
I felt more connected with my family.
Especially when I was one of the first generations.
I always watched if my family survived the night.
Now I don't care.
There are 4 families and if I play I will be in each of them and I do not feel connected with anyone.

It also occurred to me ...

I don't mind updates that add something.
But limiting what was ...
Unfortunately, it's just a waste of time.
They all say, "We don't want it, it spoils the game."
And you are trying to force people again.
Should I remind you of the history of swords and private property? Nobody wanted it and it took several months for you to give up these ideas.

Exactly. I remember these big cities with two deep wells, three shallow wells and one with a steam engine.
Veterans could easily build advanced things and noobs calmly cultivate the land without constant fear of lack of water.

So in response to our whining, Jason decided to make us hungry faster?

Bravo!

I think I should write the topic: "Is Jason an alien and why is it almost certain?"
