Lots of Fruit
« on: April 27, 2004, 06:32:58 am »
With all this fruit junk going around my wish is that there would be a lot of fruit in the game. Fruit would be for flavoring, garnishes, eaten just like that, blah blah.
My name is NOT pronounced, \"Kway-per,\" it\'s pronounced \"Kye-per.\"

Has much time been dedicated to the discussion of PS cuisine? (and not just cooking/crafting skills).  I\'m thinking that the various races might have widely differing \"traditional\" tastes, but the melting pot of cultures might create new and interesting cultures.  

I think the \"real world\" provides a very diverse selection of fruit - do we want Earthlike fruit in planeshift?  I certainly have no objection to basing in-game foods on earthlike dishes, but it might be fun to have plants native to planeshift.

I wouldn\'t mind some fruit in PS it wouldn\'t ruin the game at all and it would give the fruit guilds somthing to fight about.

Yes they can throw fruit at each other as well. Use them like weapons. Or objects to worship.

I had this chat a couple of weeks ago in planeshift fan channel about how the lemon merchants and lawnmower salesmen would team up to dominate the planeshift economy. It shouldnt be taken too lightly

No but seriously we did, about having everyday items ingame and things, cant remember the outcomes

Yay! Thumbs up to the fruit idea. There should be a fruit throwing skill (seriously) that determines how well you fight with fruit!

I feel as if some people have been eating a bowl of sugar lately... While I\'m on the topic of sugar, why not have characters become hyperactive?  :P

Seriously (as if I\'m not always serious), how would fruit help characters? Why would someone throw fruits, except in a tavern brawl or there\'s nothing else nearby (not likely)?

And fruits should have poisonous relatives, so that careless characters die of poison. That would be hilarious if you\'re evil or sickening if you\'re an empathatic person.

PS should have its own fruits. Take the Stone Labryniths (is there a shortcut for that? I\'m getting tired of typing it, but Stone Labs implies Stone Laboratories... :S). Fruits as we know them probably won\'t grow there. If they grow there at all, it would probably be amazing, but we might just want to hop off the path of realism and crash into a tree...

Actually, I would like the ability to pick up & through just about anything.
Or @ least the ability to through items you are carrying, maybe you can pick up & through Chairs & rocks? if you have potions you through them @ enemies to make strange things happen,

(& Yes, throwing lemons @ enemies eye & watching them stuble around blinded is a must :D ( j/k)

I think fruit as a part of a cooking skill shouldn\'t be laughed at :).

Especially if races have different tastes (this berry tastes like my shoe! yuck!), possible allergies (you might be an uber l33t character but eating that berry will still kill you!). Also adding in things like they were mentioned... poisons etc they could be useful in an alchemic sense too.

I would love to see situations were only certain recipes would heal poisonous monster bites, or create certain posions but only a few know the correct recipes from trial and error.So fruit as a food, I have no problem with, then again I don\'t decriminate against foods anyway :D.

As for throwing fruit, well I\'m not against that either :p (uber monster charges, me throws down fruit, monster slips... )

Do not repeat the tactics which have gained you one victory, but let your methods be regulated by the infinite variety of circumstances.
