Utility of "human" pals

[wickerworks]

We can capture people as pals but right now, but there's not much more to it other than using them for display or decoration. I get that human pals aren't the point of the game, but they're there and they're an option. It would be nice for the idea to be expanded upon even a little bit.

Any chance this will be developed further in the future?

Give them high handiwork skills but high chance of depression? Make it required that we have meat in the food stores?
Then maybe if we're using more than x number of humans as pals, have the PIDF routinely raid our base?

I just thought about this cos the NPCs and human enemies feel empty and useless in late game. Past level 35 I don't even bother raiding human bases anymore.

human pals have the niche of only handiwork. even at 1x, I still use at least one.

[Chillum]

there is utility for some human pals, just not the fodder.

Get a merchant or a black market dealer.

nah you'd trigger all the SJW and delusional lefties about ableism, slave labor of "pets/humans" in-game, etc

if you have repair kits stashed by ur base, they will repair it should it take damage from raids.

I like to keep a human active in my base because of how little he does. my other pals get distracted with all the things they can do, my human gets right to work building and crafting for me. At first I was disappointed with his lack of utility, but now I appreciate his simplicity.

you can sell them for a good price but not worth the effort, but you can take merchant and install them to you base.

I still raid them when there are a pal that i can't easly find, but as you said after a certain point i loose interest raiding them. Since they don't appear in late game area it's clearly a early mid game content let's see what coming next in the future.

You need Loupmoons. Level 2 handiwork and no other skills, plus it's dark type so doesn't sleep.
