Does the Bathhouse serve any purpose?

[Koboss]

I unlocked it a while ago and have explored it but it never seems to serve any purpose? What does it do?

If you go through the bathhouse and enter the water, your energy will be quickly replenished.

[Smidge204]

You can bathe and it regens your health and stamina rather quickly.

Not quickly enough to justify the trip, IMHO.

[Bad Aim Bodyshot Barry]

also theres a glitch involving it to get infinate energy

[The Y'All Of Us]

There's a friendship cutscene that takes place there in addition to the 'free' energy.

I like to use the map tile to store things. Mostly kegs.

Umm. To bathe? Don't want to go home to the fam smellin' like fish.

[Koboss]

Ok, thanks guys!

Better than passing out and losing money

I didn't realize you could do this.

You could just carry some food with you...

[yodabauer]

You don't use energy from walking though, right?

I wish you could invite NPCs to go places with you. It'd be fun to have a bathhouse par-tay.

Ealry game, no, you can;t, cause most of the food costs money and the crops are mainly for selling, so bathhouse is good for when you have no food, nor money to get food

[Smidge204]

Correct, walking/running does not use energy. But it does use time.

Recovering your energy takes about 15 minutes of game time per 100 energy, so even if you are already at the entrance to the bath house, recovering from the "You're starting to feel exhausted" state could take an hour or more depending on your max Energy.

A few foraged items will restore the same energy in seconds. If you're really prepared you'd ahve some quality crops or cooked dishes with you for energy. Even new characters can have a pile of field snacks after a few days of clearing the farm...

Bathhouse is only useful for early game where your chara doesnt have much energy and you dont have much food to eat to replenish that energy. So going bathhouse is a free way to recharge your energy.

Once you hit mid to late game you are better off just eating, As by that time you have alot food to replenish your energy from foraging, crops and gifts.

The spa is useful, I use it to replenish energy in Summer. I'll admit that it does look ugly. I have found a XNB Mod to change it into a fabulous hot spring.
