MayGod Posted November 1, 2020 Share Posted November 1, 2020 there could be something new in the game that cures diseases. can be an item placed on the flingomatic, or some magic that could be used Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZTheNecromancer Posted November 1, 2020 Share Posted November 1, 2020 ? Whaddaya mean by "We"? and "wanted?" A fair portion of players want a cure, another fair portion want a way to prevent it other than digging it up when there's a warning. And the other group thinks it's fine as it is. I don't know what you mean by "Wanted." Klei hasn't stopped updating the game and it's still going strong. Or you're thinking Klei has made a statement that they aren't going to do so. (Which as far as I remember they haven't done so at all.) Or is this a translation mishap? I don't know if you're trying to speak for all of us, but you certainly don't speak for me.

chirsg Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 Yeah, either a cure or a way for plants to germinate or be crafted in the new landscaping tab. I want more berry bushes in my world and it would be a solution to disease as well if germination were also added. I mean, berries have seeds, grass have roots and saplings have seeds too in any reasonable environment. Would be nice to have a method of multiplication when it comes to plants and that in and of itself is one solution to disease. Don't mind the haters, op.

ArubaroBeefalo Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 the mechanic is fine for a survival game but being also a sandbox where basebuilding takes place makes frustating not having something in the middle to keep having a penalty to prevent confortable plant farms but also alowing people to have plants as decoration with another less boring mechanic than "dig everything every x days" edit: and berry bushes arent renewable Q-Q Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or maybe I'll have to hire a Wes to renewal my plants ! or turn off the disease... but I'd like the default experience to be more interesting.

wigfrids hat Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 perhaps i am just not understanding the argument but i really do not know why turning off disease is not a viable option? of course i think it is the same reason people often dont use any of the world-gen toggles but still. disease is a crummy idea in its current state for sure but there is still the entirely practical and economical option of taking it out of the game through valid in-game means Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, because we have hundreds of ideas to make disease something nice, something with much more deepness and to make basic plant farming more accessible, I'd hate the disease to disappear from the game, Klei really have to do that disease rework on a QoL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have played ds and dst with it off and is less interesting to gather twigs that you planted in early days without any trouble i like it but is boring Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prezera Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 Maybe, so you could use plants as decoration, using the sweeper on a diseased plant could make the plant look normal but still function like it would it it did have disease? Just an idea. A cure for disease is still needed though, just feels like it would be annoying to cure plants you know you will never pick or use.

TiMMaHnaTor Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 I've had yet to make it past summer but I really find disease isn't that much of an issue. I try to leave bushes where they're planted and only keep 10 or so near base. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wigfrids hat Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 -shrugs- that is not something i think i understand. making farms unrewarding but only sometimes is super not for me XD i am a basebuilder OR a survivor. i tend to not do both at the same time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheggf Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 Disease should be turned off by default or heavily reworked. As it is right now disease feels like an early access tech demo of showing it's possible for plants to become diseased. There's no way to prevent disease other than the incredibly fun and rewarding shovel every plant and replant it every once in awhile. There's no way to cure disease. There's nothing about disease, it's just "You moved a plant? Keep shovelling it up! Fun!". It's not hard to stop disease. It's not challenging to stop disease. It's not fun to stop disease. It's just boring. It's just tedious. The plants that get diseased aren't even the best way to get their things, they're relatively bad at it. A berry bush farm pales in comparison to bunnymen or various other food sources and a grass tuft farm pales in comparison to an automated grass gekko pen.

ryvrdrgn14 Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 Diseases are annoying enough that I don't bother replanting the regular berry bushes, grass and twigs anymore. Probably sucks for people who like pretty bases though. If it's just basic survival, visiting the savanna, forest and grassland biomes once or twice each season for piles of grass, twigs and beefalo wool is usually more than enough to get by with. The only difference that Wickerbottom with 50 berry bushes, 40 grass and 40 twigs does is: Produce lots of rot. Force you to build lots of chests. Give you back pain from harvesting everything. Disease in DST is probably like Corpses Enabled in Darkest Dungeon. It's a mechanic to make the game harder, but it's not a fun mechanic. Just turn it off if you are a base builder. People who just want to survive don't really need to replant anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A mistake I see some people do in winter is like: "Hey, it's winter. I'll get some ice." It should be: "Hey, it's winter! I'll get all the ice!"

Scrimbles Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 if a cure for disease was to be available, I would hope that disease itself would become more common, through more active threats. Right now its hardly a problem, and for a lot of people its worth just turning off as it doesn't add any real value. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
