why the hell do we need to hold e?

[[RM] Thunderhunt]

Legit i wanna know, who launched this game and thought it was a good idea to make it so you needed to hold a button to chop/hit as opposed to just pressing it (or clicking left click once)

[Mervin]

Because e does two things. You press e on bark it will pick up but if you hold e on bark it will cut it into fibres for example.

yeah but crafting something should be a single press, not a hold down the button.

carving a wolf for example took almost 2 minutes, that is not fun or cool.

I didn't say you had to like it. Make the suggestion on the correct page and maybe they will look at it. I just accept what it is for now and use it.

I thought to break down, you need to hold shift + your interaction button

Actually leveling your skinning skill will improve your skinning time for about 150% faster skinning.
Creating iron knife will boost skinning speed for about another 200%.
So literally you can skin a wolf in 2-3 strikes.

Personally for me it granted a huge feeling of major progression over time developing your character.

Pretty sure it is possible to skin a target in one strike.

So easy to fix we have 4 interacte bindings just move harvest to an other.

If it is in your inventory yes but on the ground just hold e

First thing I did was move the resources scanner from z to my mouse thumb button.

You can make two separated buttons for this.

Also, Holding a button down for Gathering is objectively terrible.

There is no objectivity at all in that, for it to be objective everyone has to accept/agree it is bad. I would be very surprised if every player of this game found it terrible. I think you meant subjectively...

Small Key Weight. If you wanna watch youtube instead of play the game just get a small weight that can sit on and press a key down.

Yes i understand that.
However in terms of the user experience - it sucks.
Raising the skill should reward you with more items or perhaps a chance for a higher tier.

Having brain dead grind in a single player game just to slow down the player and give a false sense of progression isn't cool.

if it was an mmo, that would be different.

Most people wont feel like you, most will feel the game has poor QoL.
it's crafting UI and overall building system is pretty ''alpha'' stage.

He's right. It's absurd. You don't force people to hold down a button to do things that are repeated many many times, consistently and constantly throughout a game.

It's horrendous amateur game design. We have consoles to thank for this now being in games on PC. Unfortunately their bad design habits bled over.
