Mushroom shaman well depth

So I grabbed a mushroom as a newborn, and it was like a death sentence.  Couldn't tell what was food or foe. Yet some things stood out more vividly than my normal eyes see.

The developer for this game has a fetish for human interaction.  So much that he is willing to not give a well measuring tool to keep our Wells wet.

My idea is, these tedious tasks like well management could keep their social aspect and be less tedious for not just a well manager, but future frusterating jobs.

Make mushrooms let you see cryptic visions for well depth and perhaps other hidden info in the future items in updates

PS . I ate two mushrooms and it persisted through multiple deaths till I quit.

Re: Mushroom shaman well depth

Oh wow!

That's a  fascinating functionality ...

I kinda like it... but I really feel like there should be an antidote?  Aw, now I'm waffling.  Maybe if there wasn't a persistent multi life shaman trip thing, I'd be okay with no antidote.

Re: Mushroom shaman well depth

Yea.  Tripping people kind of need people to take care of them(or I did).  I watched the dev comment about preferring a social interaction of having a dedicated well humper saying "don't pull from the well" his whole life.  I think shaman could sacrifice their survivability for a interface giving them information on things others can't see.  Especially good if the dev keeps adding depletables we can't measure

Could even have the representations be unique per life so the shaman has to figure out what a mutilated goat head in a pond means

Re: Mushroom shaman well depth

This could add a few roles to society -

a shaman

a mushroom farmer

if antidotes are a thing, an antidote farmer

Re: Mushroom shaman well depth

Ah, you're probably right Yahg. 

...but then again, I've recently spawned into some pretty awesome coops.  So who knows?

I can totally see someone accidentally becoming a shaman for several lives.  I'm very against that.

Re: Mushroom shaman well depth

I used to be desert shaman after Telafiesta showed me how. Now everyone knows about it so less rp pontential.

I guarantee tripping between lives is a bug.

What does being shown how to be a desert shaman consist of?

Re: Mushroom shaman well depth

It was mostly how incredibly broken/op perfect temp was and how to hold temp via running.

Using that you can wait out famines or live as a baby after being only fed once or twice, easily feed family as Eve etc etc.

Most people know how to do all this now anyways so no point rping about normal skills.
