Fast/Slow metabolism?

[epicfacedave]

I assume this is the replacements for the obese and thin traits. But does this mean depending on what I choose, let’s say slow metabolism, that I’ll burn calories slower? Or is it just a weight gain at the start. And if I do burn them slower, is that kinda good actually since I could eat less with combos like light eater?

yeah slow will probably burn less calories, fast will burn more. Its still farily quick to get a gain on. first 2 days you can get a gain on just eating what is about, often eating. drinking what u find and stuff. I took fast and its not seen an obvious effect so far

I'm not sure whether it's a replacement, the weight traits might still be acquirable by gaining or losing weight (I haven't checked). The metabolism traits are technically different since the effect (the tendency towards gain or loss) is permanent rather than just being a different starting value.

from what i can tell, slow metabolism is a net positive. it makes the first couple weeks a bit tricky, and losing that fitness point sucks, but i have always been at war with the weight number. i have to eat so much just to maintain weight, let alone gain it, and even with this trait it is a challenge. if farming was working well then i wouldn't have an issue as soon as i can harvest potatoes, but apparently that's not the case.

I would say its almost a must have unless you wanna spend almost the entire end game eating.

Kinda sucks as being overweight is annoying early game.
