Yeah...about the mimicreep

[leo920101]

I think having a way to take advantage of mimicreep is more fun

not necessaryly by duplicating the construction amulet, but it's better to have a way than nothing, right?

 

I know we can still duplicate the wooden armor to burn in a bonfire, or a Phasmo-Encapsulator to save a little bit of scrap, but I'm not gonna lie, it doesn't feel as satisfying.

 

can we find some way to limit the efficiency of amulet-duplicating rather than remove it entirely?

It would be fine if the mimicreep hurt you when you used it. Make it an actual threat to your well being.

It's better not to have it. It's a very rare kind of real trap... Not very dangerous, but a trap. I can only remember it in the archives of Iii... In adventure mode...

This is a danger only for people who can't be bothered to clean up after themselves and leave important items literally everywhere. 

The item mimics are a cool idea, but a simple chest housing your items completely negates them as a threat, they could be a terror pre-rift but they obviously don't show up during that period of the game. The little item impersonator doesn't do much, but was clearly designed in a fashion similar to the night hands that steal a persons fire or wavy jones and messing with the boat.

Это опасно только для тех, кто не утруждает себя уборкой за собой и оставляет важные вещи буквально где попало.

Имитация предметов — классная идея, но простой сундук, в котором хранятся ваши предметы, полностью нивелирует их как угрозу. Они могли бы наводить ужас до начала рифта, но, очевидно, не появляются в этот период игры. Маленький имитатор предметов мало что умеет, но явно создан по образу и подобию ночных рук, которые крадут у людей огонь, или волнистых джонов, которые мешают лодке.

That's exactly the point. I've seen a lot of players build up a whole mountain of things. And I'm guilty of it myself. 
I can imagine the chaos if they were on the surface...

All it takes is dying in the caves while a shadow rift is open, you'll find your corpse riddled with extra mimicked items.

Достаточно умереть в пещерах, когда открыт теневой разлом, и вы обнаружите, что ваш труп усеян дополнительными имитациями предметов.

I don't mind losing 40 health points, hunger points and sanity points by using the imitation items - rather, I really need some mechanisms to consume these attributes to make use of the food I have hoarded.
