Taste

Recommended Posts

I suddenly realized (when I misclicked yet again when attempting to drink) that I have no idea what the menu option "taste" is used for.


I've never seen anything other than "The water tastes fresh." when using it.


Does it, or will it ever serve a function?


 


And here comes the suggestion... :)


Should it be removed?


One less menu option if it doesn't have a current or planned purpose.

Indeed, what is the story with the Taste option?  Is it an unfinished feature that was forgotten?  Or is it simply there for some sort of Lore?

The rumors I heard a long time ago, it was intended to show if the water was fresh, needed to be boiled(purified), or was poisoned.

I picture myself just now 3 grown men sitting infront their computer on a sunday evening, all together in wurm, with 1 barrel of 90ql Red Wine.


And they are choosing the option "Taste" over and over to describe it with flamboyant metaphors.

I had always assumed that it had something to do with the pvp server.  Apparently i was wrong :wacko:

I think it would be cool if they added a feature to poison the water supply. I want to live out my fantasy of being Vlad The Impaler. >:D

Wait, so tasting really is pointless? I think they just left it in so they can pull up the stats on paranoid, water-sipping newbies and have a good chuckle on Friday afternoons.

My understanding of it was that it was used to tell if the water was drinkable (as Nicrolis pointed out), but was removed due to adding nothing but busy work to the game. (not fun)


 


IMO, just remove taste.
