Why is everyone so sad?

[suppa]

I'm in the copper age. I have 10 carts and 5 sleds? No brewery yet. I even built that big stonehenge thing. Once planting season or harvesting season comes everyone gets upset.

My people seem to do better with several smaller shrines rather then one big one.

[a.gmag]

Yeah, when they’re sad they need to go kneel down one of those structures, so if you only got that big one they’d have to travel for longer.

There’s no different, quality/speed wise in what kind of improvement to morale these have, the different options are just for your overall score.

I personally like to set up totems and shrines here and there, in case someone needs a quick touch up :’D

Welfare affects morale so make sure your villagers have housing, clothes and surplus food. Try not to overload them with tasks. They need time to pray, eat, rest and even just be idle. The villagers in this game are human beings.

Certain things may upset the such as raiders and blizzards so do have those skull posts and totems available and a few of the more advanced will help.

Sounds like workload. They all go to work & they're busy in planting & harvesting season.
