Hunting 1 rabbit = 20x Meats??

[NullCult]

Is it a bug that you get litteraly SWARMED with meat when hunting??

[Raith]

How would getting a realistic amount of meat from an animal a bug?

(No it's not a bug.)

[Apop85]

if i remember 1 meat is 0.1kg so the whole bunch of meat would be 2kg for one rabbit.

Wait until you kill a boar.

[Burst Enchilada]

It's 20 .1kg cuts. So basically Henry just sucks at field dressing an animal but the amount he gets is perfectly reasonable.

[Entropie]

The game does tell you the total weight, that is what should be considered here and not whether it happened to overburden you or not.

You should try deer or boar, get like 90 meat per kill, one time I got 120 boar meat off one lol

[Myth]

Folks in the middle ages, especially pesants, divided meat into small portions because it was costly and hard to come by, they were dirt poor, and there was no refrigeration.. While realistic it does make for game balance breaking money gain right from the start. I've only encounter a game warden once ever in 100 hours of play. At the time I had no poached meat on me so it didn't even matter.

As it is now you can go out and get raw game, come back into town, lockpick open someone's house and use their cooking fire, then sell the cooked meat to every vendor in town that will buy it making serveral thousand coin relatively quickly in a few trips. (In one if you've used the unlimited weight mod - but that's rather self-inflicted.)

Maybe for balance poaching should be far more risky than it is. Make getting caught a far higher chance, especially the longer time you stay in the forest. Have a decent chance of being questioned by a guard if you bring raw game into a town. Add the possibility of guards interupting you when haggling with a merchant over the price. (Would be a good opportunity for more use of Speech perks.)

Weight is in lb. All game animals vary in their yield of meat, and can also give usable skin, tusk/antler (if appropriate) and offal.

So for a hare ~20 0.2lb pieces is around 1.8kg of meat. A dozen Hares (a fairly small bag from the "Prey" quest) is thus likely to be around 20-22kg or roughly 50lb.

Boar meat is heavier (per piece) so ~160 0.8lb pieces is around 128lb of meat. (And this makes the complaint from some of 'grindy fetch quests' because you need a massive "60 pieces of meat" to be fairly... whiny.)
