Survival mode shit has been rejected multple times when it was brought up in the Discord, and if I have any experience with it just jammed into the game (CoC1 mod...), it was tedious and annoying and would divert my attention away from actually doing stuff just to find shit to eat.
In a world where portal magic prevents you from enjoying a noble well-made stew that literally anyone else could eat because you got a special case of "gain the traits of any species related to the thing you put in your mouth, food that doesn't TF you is few and far in-between in comparison to the stuff that doesn't. You're literally forcing players to either eat this thing to TF yourself unwillingly for a dumb buff or starve because "MuH ReAlIsM mOdE!111!111!.

No, what the fuck is wrong with you, never suggest this shit again.
A.) I’m not on the discord. Didn’t know it’d been rejected. Whoops.
B.) There’s a reason survival mode would be survival *mode.* Nobody would force you to play it. Figured it’d be hot for people that like forced TFs, and chimera-lovers might enjoy the end product.
C.) I genuinely hope that last part is sarcasm and you’re not actually this angry at someone for putting in two cents that the devs are most likely going to shrug their shoulders at and put in a tally under the ‘ideas we said no to before’ chart. Lot of other positive places that energy could go.
