How about, instead of taking a guess at how people not present will react, we just decide if we want these features or not.
With a group this big, sometimes somebody’s idea makes it into a game despite pre-planning to avoid a feature. For some folks, you just gotta try it to see why it was a bad idea in theory. If we add bad things only to remove them - yes, it is technically a waste of time. We’re also not really doing this on a deadline, so. I say roll with it.
I agree though, no pooping. Washing clothes doesn’t add anything of value.
If I have to track nutrients, I don’t want it to be anything more complex than the foodgroup types listed. Meat, junk, plant matter, dairy, etc. Give me scurvy if I never eat any plant matter, sure, but don’t make vitamin C an separate hidden stat. Don’t add more numbers into it.
