Option to turn off roman numerals

[Jerry]

I have a pretty damn simple suggestion add an option to turn off roman numerals lol. I get it you want to be artsy but i wish they would focus more on gameplay. I do not wish to learn roman numerals just to play your game.

Unless I am missing something I checked options but cant find ♥♥♥♥.

It gets very confusing later on when you get 2 sets of roman numerals for total and days of year lol.

Didn't you learn roman numerals when you were like, 7 years old? If you didn't, I can tell you that plenty of kids learn it. It's easy, it's gonna take you 5 minutes of looking at a list to know which letter is which number.

Other than that, the only real use of the day you're on is to find out whether or not winter is coming soon.Which you'll know a few days in advance anyway, so you've got enough time to prepare.

Roman numerals center around 5s.

I = 1
V = 5
X = 10
L = 50
C = 100


I = 1
II = 2
III = 3
IV = 4
V = 5
VI = 6
VII = 7
VIII = 8
IX = 9
X = 10
XI = 11
XII = 12
XIII = 13
XIV = 14
XV = 15
XVI = 16
XVII = 17
XVIII = 18
XIX = 19
XX = 20

Basically the trick is for every 3 "I"s you need a new symbol. So you don't go I I I I for 4. You go I V for 4.

It almost works the same for "X"s. XXXIX is 39. but XL is 40.

44 = XLIV
49 = XLIX
50 = L

Either way once you start to see the pattern it's not that hard to pick up.

Keep in mind that this game uses lower case roman numerals, so day 49 is xlix not XLIX

Roman numerals are not known by most players. You think most players are going to learn a new numeracy just for this game? The only reason it stuck around because it made things seem important and sophisticated.

I mean why not just make a game and have all numbers in SAE or arabic numeral. Its because the mass majority use metric. Changing between metric and numerals would be nice and also help streamers. I was watching streamers of this game and half people were asking what day it was and the streamer didn't even know xD

It must just be a western thing because It was never taught where i live.

I really hope this happen. I usually use roman to numeric converter website. I don't want to do this. I don't even want to learn this. Sorry. I know this roman number is the tradition of Kingdom, but please Dev.

You know whats really hard? Determining time by position of the sun/moon. Plz mr dev add a clock. This would be SOOOO Helpful.
