Do taking long rests effect the game negatively

[Viper]

I just took one and I got in a heavy battle and used all my spells. Taking them frequently. Does it have a negative effect on the game.Does the game have a timer. countdown of doom.

There are several times quests, but no global countdown.

there are a few quests which change if you see them and then rest, IE the obvious house burning in act 1, but beyond that, no, not really

for the most part: its obvious.

It doesn't. However, if you trigger an event, and then long rest, the event will resolve by itself.
For example, approaching the Zhentarim being besieged by the gnolls (usually the indicator of triggering the event is an auto save) and then resting means the gnolls overrun the cave and kill them.
Or if you approach waukeen's rest, the burning inn, and rest before resolving it, the people in the building die.

Does not have a 'timer' on game progression specifically. However there are certain events that will trigger due to Long Rests. There are also times when a Long Rest will impact an event in the game.

You usually have plenty of information when something needs to be dealt with in a timely manner, but you are certainly free to ignore it and let whatever happens, happen.

In general, the game is not on a 'timer' and Long Rests don't advance the game world in that specific way.

Surprisingly not.
It would have been interesting if Honour Mode would have added such a timer.

Okay..Thanks everyone. I have not triggered any events.SO I should be good. Very helpful guys.

The supply cost is the only cost. There's a single timed quest that I found in Grymforge where you need to save a character and it's very clearly timed, if you rest too much it changes the outcome I haven't found any other quest like that.
