(*spoiler alert*) It would be nice if I can stock enough ration before the siege of Su**

[ghnjioijgrj]

I think it is somewhat unreasonable to take away all of my food supplies no matter how much there were. It would be nice the developer can reflect the quantities of my food in the main quest of the besieging in Suchdol. Lord Pisek also says in the game that he would fill more food stock in his castle. So it is reasonable to make subquest from gamekeeper that requests player to hunt enough game to endure the siege. And If the enough food stock leads to the keeping those stolen silver from Italian court because the defending soldiers can fight more efficiently, it would be nice too.

I somewhat agree, but realistically there's only so much food Henry would be able to keep on his person. The story can't really account for Henry being able to overload himself with 20000/410 weight capacity.

Completely agree, but only in case of party mechanichs with some realistic party food stocks were introduced to the game. However CryEngine is not able to perform any party mechanic, hence - we have no way for that feature to be introduced realistically. And cheesing by buying all dry food stocks in the region would break the artistic license - [spoilers about 100% completed the main quest]If there would be no shortage of food, the silver wouldn't be lost, so there wouldn't be any moral choice in picking up options of saving or abandoning Samuel.

Suchdol fortress had your personal belongings chest.. mine was stacked with foods and other rations that helped feed everyone.

So hunger never started in your walkthrough? Just everyone chilled in the castle until Racek and Jobst's army arrived?

A chest full of walnuts. You should get a steam achievement for bring a set number of nuts to the siege

PS : Then we would not need to Boil Leather like complete neanderthals

You will get Hunger and Despair quest regardless, atleast I did on my two full play-through's but it depends on how much food you have on yourself and in your chest because it all gets taken by Janosh. That will determine how hungry you will all go, and if you need to eat Mutt, shoeleather soup ect... Its cool when you try different ways for different outcomes instead of rushing your way to finish the game. This isn't a racing game.. You don't get an achievement for completing the game faster..

I was asking ironically) I know that the amount of food in Jindro's coffers has no impact on the story of the game. So no matter how much food he brings to the castle.

No, it wouldn't) And you don't need to eat Mutt or shoeleather soup - just loot attackers and eat their food - it's a shame, that defenders cannot eat the Praguers themselves) If it's cheesing for you - as*hole Janosh has stolen only Jindřich's food - most of the chests in the castle contain randomly generated food.

The fate of everyone is in your hands "Henry's hands" what you bring to the table or how you go about things is what impacts the story,

I would really like to keep a few food items like the special beer from the Semine wedding, but every food item except potions will be taken.
You can have a stock of low quality potions instead and drink them until your're not hungry anymore.

It would be nice if we could have a stock of food and that would really make a change, but it's part of the story and some parts doesn't change no matter what you do, almost like the siege of Nebakov.
One time I completed the tasks super fast, but the fight was still lost and on another save I just waited and did nothing, not pushing down the ladders, not defending the gate and the cutscene was the same.
I didn't even had to fight the soldiers coming from the other side of the fort.

But in the siege of Sukdol they should really kept the silver behind the last line of defence, so the silver would only be lost when they are dead and it doesn't matter anymore.

They did lose everything but the tower. and silver was in the cellar beneath it.

That is why they should have taken everything with them in the tower.
It wasn't even unexpected, becuase they said themselfes that they wouldn't last much longer after the enemy stormed the outer gate a few days earlier.

Yes, the nuance caused by the loss of the silver, despite the heroic defence was supposed to infer that war is trivial and a pointless waste of life and resources.. I dont know, that was my takeaway from that coming to pass.
