Another food update?

[Seriha]

I can understand not listing food stats in game due to display limitations, but there's no reason SE can't set up an outside resource with this info. Overall, I'd liken it to the nutritional value found on packaging for real foods. Knowing what goes into your body isn't a bad thing, and while some might have that Latent Effect: Explosive Diarrhea, when it comes to stats we can't see, it's a no-brainer that things like boosted skill rates are very, very, easily missed.

Having everything handed to you on a silver platter isn't for everyone, and certainly wasn't the driving force behind this game since it's inception. Now abyssea era.. yeah that's about as silver plattery as it comes.

Oh spare me. I am so tired of the whole "giving players information in game is easy-mode" attitude, really. Give me a break. Most food is rarely used. Crafting in general is fairly broken. There would be no downside to giving players this information.

But I guess the game is "harder" because no one makes half the food in the game because no one buys it because people don't even know what it does. That's not artificial difficulty at ALL.

On a happy note, I'm pleased to see that both of these foods are low level and made with fairly common ingredients, most of which can be cheaply bought from an NPC.

So that's where all the puffballs went.. Never the less, happy they are a low level craft, yay!

The more you know!

Seems kind of ironic this statement coming from SE. I thought the policy was "The less you know!"

Can we know more? >_>

I thought the policy was "The less you know!"

That was back when Tanaka was still in charge.

People rarely use food since abyssea came out. They don't see the point with all their god mode atmas. B4 abyssea most players used food to maximize their acc, attk, or what have you. Crafting of consumables being broken is directly related to abyssea. Period.

As far as 1/2 the foods out there being useless that is nothing new. Except in cases where those foods are part of a higher level synth.

Please let the dev know that Automatons also need skill up. Automatons are our left and right hands, please don't left them out.

Question to the devs since they so kindly dropped some information on mystery food added during an update:

Do Macarons (Kitron, Coffee, Cherry) actually increase the skillup rate of crafts?

What do rusks (Coconut, Chocolate) do?

These items have gotten urban legend status regarding their effectiveness in skilling up crafts and desynths and some information would be greatly appreciated.

They should have reminder text on food like gear dose.
