Adding something to the voracious quirk

Post by Mickyan » #452144

I want to add something to it but I can't decide what

I've never seen it used and it doesn't really seem worthwhile, I want to make it so it's the quirk you'd take if you want to have a FAT character no matter the cost

Can you tell us what it does RIGHT NOW just incase we're too lazy to get on or don't play the game.

Cut down by half to be precise

I'm talking about adding something more to it not changing it, to be clear

I would literally pick blindness just to afford voracious if it removed slowdown from fat, getting fat is so absurdly easy and hard to stop that no slowdown from fat would be nearly as good as no slowdown from low health

slowdown from fat is a combat change and wouldn't get merged

I don't know how you could get fat so easily on accident since you get very obvious messages when you're going over the limit and get enough time to burn off some small excess. I'm more inclined to go with the positive moodlet anyway since it's still meant to be a minor quirk

being fat gives you advantages in exchange for making you slow, so it's more of a combat thing in that aspect

what would that be? far as I know all the fat trait does is slow you down

noone, but people would take the voracious trait since it stops the slowdown (a combat debuff)

dunno how much has been removed but it used to make your neck too fat to get your hands around making you immune to getting choked and let you swallow monkeys whole

I've got it.
Voracious makes you eat faster.
It should also make you burn fat faster due to increased metabolism.
Whether it makes you starve faster is up for debate, however. I personally think it should be restricted to weight-loss.

It's a positive trait, so giving it a downside seems dumb.
