because so many people keep asking for gluttonous things for wendy. it is wearing the community here absolutely thin that so many people keep asking for more and more and more unendingly without any regard for the actual game, without any regard for other players and without any regard for the sheer labour involved. it is exhausting for a lot of people who are NOT wendy mains

I think a lot of these so called Wendy mains actually hate Wendy. "Wendy is so bad, please buff her, look at what this other character can do" my brother in Hylia why don't you just pick the other character then

Honestly I don't see the problem personally I think we should add a skill where Abigial does your taxes and generates thulecite crowns every 3 minutes so as to ease the player burden.

Um this is actually a nerf because Wendy players don't do taxes (before anyone gets angry, this is a joke)

Favorite food just makes food give extra 15 hunger. Banana pop has 12.5 hunger. 12.5 + 15 = 27.5

Banana pop is usually made for sanity not hunger.

Honestly it feels a little disappointing that her favorite food is something so niche, but hey, I recently made a polar bearger bin so I can actually carry a reasonable amount of banana pops and eat them before they go bad, so I can't complain. It's just flavor anyways

I don't see why they'd like it. Too fancy for a spider-kid. Monster lasagna makes more sense.

I'd rather stick with sweets, though. Make ice cream easier to obtain, or switch to something like pumpkin cookies or banana shake.

wasnt that the idea behind milky-whites? to make icecream easier?

The effect of Favorite Food needs to be updated, not only for Wendy, but for every character.

3-5 from a boss after finding terrarium, then you have to beat the twins (or wait 15 days) in between?

Kind of an odd definition of "easier" for a subpar food (given alternatives and spoilage).

If you could multiply milky whites after obtaining them, that would be different. Compare jelly salad after getting lureplants.

I recommend locking this post, it has nothing to do with the content of the beta version. @JoeW

Okay, but have you considered that favorite foods are not meant to be extremely impactful? And that every character, barring Wes and Warly who straight up have no benefit/favorite food, have no benefit from their favorite food aside from +15 hunger, aka, a teeny tiny bit more than a carrot?

Wendy has no reason to suddenly get more stats from her favorite food, she doesn't need it either.

Name one time you took a character's favorite food into consideration when picking them. Name one time ANYONE took that into consideration whatsoever.

tl;dr why though

Wolfgang roasted potatoes.

The perfect food.

ok, to bring it back around;

there doesnt seem to be any reason to buff wendy's favourite food. it gives her virtually no benefit that cannot be had by eating something else and it seems like it would be a waste of dev time to make that part of her update(even if walter's was buffed too)

the only one i think a food buff would make any sense for is wortox but even then it is still not really worth it since his fav food is pretty weak(pomegranate) and buffing it wouldn't actually solve the issue of him getting half-hunger as default

[aidancode]

This is a really weird want. Especially considering Wendy has one of the better favorite foods. You later mentioned Walter, who has one of the best favorite foods. Why should they be buffed even further? Favorite food is a tiny detail to develop the characters a little bit more. If you want an actual perk to boost Wendy herself, look no further than the mourning glory hat she can make or all the control she now gains over Abigail.

[Hollow soul 3]

Eh, I think that's unnecessary. Might make sense with warly. Favorite food isn't really an important part of the game. Then again, that might just be because I main wortox 

[furtiryous]

This just looks as a complaint about non-existing problem, because why not to buff everyone's fav food? The thing is, that the favourite food has just a hunger bonus, this is it's concept. So if they buff everything it will look kinda overpowered, however if they buff only wendy's food - this will simply be unfair to other characters. Secondly, food in modern DST is not a problem, so if you want to rely on banana pops only... Well, this doesn't mean they need to be buffed. There are lots of food for different purposes

[Lee lol]

If you think the effect of banana jelly is too bad, then eat stewed broth, dumplings, dragon fruit pie, baked potatoes, honey ham, bacon omelet, vegetable cocktails, leafy meat salad, ice cream, cream mashed potatoes. There is nothing to complain about.

 

I don't want them to give "favorite food" too much effect, because I don't want to eat only one thing every day, although I have dragon fruit pie and vegetable cocktails every day after having a bear can...

but I'm less sure about the favorite food coming into existence thing.

I think I remember fav foods coming along after Wurt's addition too.
