"There is no apology to make, because I am no griefer."

Aand you lost me in the first sentence. Like I said in Toxic's thread, for me it's a matter of owning up to your actions and accepting the consequences. All you do is deny them and refuse to accept the fact that you've done shitty things to people within this game.

You've also shown time and time again that the only thing you're capable of is handing out excuses and whining about how unfair we all are and dragging Toxic's name into everything because "u forgave him reee y not me???"

In the recent words of Bill Nye... You need to grow the fuck up.

Yeah guys, jeez. Just survive in the shitty unlivable area or walk 1k tiles to find a better area, gosh. What's the problem??? Oh you mean there's springs that are literally unlivable in terms of spawn and regardless of this, people are respawning there repeatedly? That's not an issue obviously. Every spring is livable! That spring in the middle of the jungle without a grassland for miles is totally livable! You just have to spend your entire life running back and forth with all the necessary items! /s

Seriously Jason, if you're gonna force us to spawn at the same spring over and over again, then for god's sake do something to give them all at least a chance at being viable. We're sitting at the same exact problem we had when it was ponds and not springs that turned into wells: A village has to be at a specific biome mix [grassland+swamp] or else it's not getting past gen 2.

You need to reduce our need for ponds by giving us the ability to bootstrap until iron automatically, regardless of the spring placement. It's as simple as giving the spring some water usage before wells, like Ponds used to be. Alternately, you could force 2-3 ponds to spawn near every spring, but that would get messy quickly I think..

However, reducing our need for the grassland biome isn't possible without some major changes in spawning locations for a lot of necessary items [milkweed, the assorted branch trees, early foods+seeds, saplings, soil]. So simple solution is just to push springs to only spawn in these biomes. Give every spring at least a decent chance at being viable this way, instead of the foolish notion of forcing people to spawn in unviable locations time and time again thinking it'll improve gameplay.

I agree with Tarr's points. I'm also thirding the notion of enabling springs to give us a limited amount of water prior to being dug into a well. You seem absolutely determined to shove us into the same unlivable spring spots over and over again, so do something to make them at least slightly liveable.

Perhaps combining this concept with, say, locking springs to only spawn in grassland biomes.. as we currently cannot play without early access to grassland biomes. Then, it'd give every eve at least a chance at turning their spawn into a decent camp. Or at least, a better chance than the way they currently spawn.

Currently we absolutely require the grassland for our home to be viable. I like to call them the "home biome" while most other biomes are "supporting biomes." These are the places we make our villages. We have to. We can't survive without the items they provide to the early game. These items include:

-Early soil
-Early milkweed
-Most of our early food
-Access to plants such as berries and milkweed for seeds
-Branches for kindling, and all kinds of tools [fire tools, iron tools, cart supplies, fire pokers, bows, fences, flooring, buckets.. everything, really]
-Saplings for home markers, arrows, mixing rubber, cooking rabbits/geese.. etc.

With springs only spawning in grassland biomes, combined with enabling us to use them as a water source before iron tech.. every eve would have a chance, if only slightly improved, at being able to live there than they would if it spawned in the middle of a jungle. Unless all these natural items were to be pushed to the other biomes springs spawn in, we'd have little to no chance to build a home there. You can't expect us to live in a savannah, or a jungle, or the mountains, when you don't supply us with any of the necessary items to survive there.

I won't lie when I say I could've worded that better, but I did mean every word of it, and I do think it conveys my feelings on that idea quite honestly.

These crazy ideas are going to scare longtime players off, if they haven't already started doing so, solely from the very real possibility that he's going to add them to the game regardless of the negative feedback he receives. Just look at people's reactions to his initial threads regarding Warswords and Fences.

I feel like at this point, people are simply afraid of having their opinions ignored, even when he's asking for them from the community. I know I am. And while not everyone's opinion should or will be acknowledged, its still a scary thought to imagine something like microtransactions being added in with no regards to the feedback received.

Nope. Nope. Literally nope. The second you add some bullshit microtransactions to buy more lives is the second I stop playing this game permanently. Keep tossing stupid ideas like this out to the public and you're going to lose people very, very quickly my dude.

Trying to force us to play how you want us to play and only that way is not going to keep your current playerbase, nor will it bring in new players.

I get that infant suicide is an issue, because people are rerolling so they can play the lives they want to play. Forcing us into a scenario we don't want to play is just going to harbor resentment and irritation in the playerbase. I have no doubt griefing is going to rise dramatically from people forced into a life with no other options and simply taking things out on the surrounding players. Either that or people will simply stop playing.

but you already got your 20 bucks so why would that matter lol

Yeah last live I had was in a town that definitely seemed to have ruins around. Found the crumbling remains of an eve camp barely 100-150 tiles south of our little place. Found a handful of broken down fenced in areas around. Land was nearly barren surrounding us- no milkweed, no wild foods, no saplings. Everything had been picked clean except the trees and the ponds.

Our little town was doing pretty well though. We had a charcoal pump on our well and a real fence pen for the sheep I finally got [was nearly completed when I was born, so I decided to add the corner entrances and finish it. Our land had a good number of maple trees, even if everything else was picked clean, so there's that.]

Weird thing was that there were already sheep pelts and even a felt hat laying around.. so I can only assume there was a larger, possibly dead civilization nearby somwewhere. I considered making a lasso to tame a horse and riding out but I was getting a bit old by then and we needed the ropes for other things.

Pies are still alive. The Aney fam was there for a bit, my mom kept shouting "Kill N***ers" bs that I was planning on ignoring because the last living girl seemed chill. Learned a few words from their language. Then me and my baby girl got stabbed because anti-whites, even after I raised one of her babies myself [she was a cutie, hope she takes care of her demonspawn mom. Looks like she planned to grab a bow once she was old enough.]

Good job Jason, you've officially added racism to the game.

From personal experience, most griefers are nasty whether you're nice to them or not. For example, a few nights ago I played my first eve run in quite a few weeks. And long story short, I ended up having only a single daughter, who was obviously going to run.. but decided not to when I told her "fuck you" for running and potentially dooming my run before it even really began.

My older son, the only kid that chose to stay, fed her berries and explained she was the only girl. I let him. And then she came back and decided to be a toxic little bitch, spouting shit like "fuck/you" "bitch" "go away" etc. She even snowballed me once and nearly caused the last baby I had [another little boy] to starve.

So I did the only right thing in the scenario and shot her with a bow, because I'd rather have no lineage at all than one hinged on this toxic player who literally did nothing the entire 15 minutes she was alive except sit in camp, eat berries, and call me names.

I highly doubt even if I was nice to her, she would've been a good daughter. From all appearances, she probably would've just ran off and starved like an ass, rather than /die and reset my timer, because fuck me amirite. I can only assume she stayed out of spite.

Awh, sad our family didn't make it I starved half way through the life because the berry fields never ended up being tended to and we lacked water. I had something going on shortly anyways though.

I definitely saw someone named Berry running around! You might've noticed me as the blond kid who kept spamming "by!/hi!"" lol. And there definitely was a sword, I watched about 6-7 people get stabbed in quick succession with it. I even picked it up briefly but that shit spooked me too much.

Tbh I'm just glad my wife(?) Sun didn't get killed. Later saw a brother named Dante running around with a loaded bow and begged him not to kill her. Dunno who he was looking for in the end though.

tfw actually added. joy.

Lol I managed to grab a baby before she could run the other night. She definitely was going to make a run for it, saw her start to right before I picked her up.

I just held her until she got impatient enough to /die.

It was pretty satisfying.

This is why I happily pull a knife and stab those little fucks. If you're not gonna lineage ban yourself from my town, I will gladly do it for you.
