Grinding for Karma

[Spark7979]

Is really annoying. You die, you go back 1 karma point & then you have to use up even more resources to survive to get another karma point. It's stupid, especially since resources are limited, if your food gets too low, you have to leave the area you're in to find more food to get more karma. It's a stupid & annoying system.

Kinda hard for food sources to run out since food respawns. Also just eat a karma flower so you don't lose your karma level. If you die you can just go back to where you've died and eat the karma flower again.

Yeah but it gets depleted slowly over time, imagine a line chart representing food, starting from the top (meaning the most) & gradually going downwards as time passes, until it's at the bottom (meaning nothing is left). Then you have to go through the hassle of moving, then moving back once the food over there is gone or you have enough karma to do what you need to do. It's just annoying & tedious to me, the more you die the more you have to grind (which happens a lot due to the many RNG elements of this game combined with clunky controls). It's not fun, most of the game is, this element just isn't. Or maybe it's just me idk...

It's kinda impossible to deplete the food source in a region due to how quickly it respawns, unless you do it purposely. I've survived in Industrial Complex for 40+ cycles without running out of food trying to spawn a red lizard. Knowing where all the food sources are in a region will surely help.

The only reason to get Karma is to unlock a new area you know the location of. Everywhere I go is a death trap and I lose all my progress trying to get back out.

the point of food running out and stuff is so you will exit your safe zone and explore the map. you dont "farm" karma. you just cant. you have to explore the map and try and survive.
