Maternity service

[Yuuna]

Hi, I was wondering if you'll had a maternity service for pregnancy and childbirth in the future ? :)

Immortal kids would go against the realism principle PH adheres to. The developers have stated clearly that they wont implement certain things, because they have moral/personal objections to it - pediatrics and maternity services amongst them. That is their decission and I respect that.

But the devs don't object that such things could be implemented through mods. That is a good compromise.

I just hope we can obtain the same level of realism and detail as if the developers did it with mods.

I know this may be a terrible thing to say.. but if we are talking about realism.. children die in hospitals everyday.. infants, child, teens, young adults, adults and seniors.. it's a part of life and it could be used as a teaching tool / insight tool especially when one of your patients in the hospital has a terminal illness (cancer) and is a child... people today want to just shut themselves off from anything in the world that hurts or bothers them. I'm not advocating for things like this to be the norm.. but if your game is based off realism. you could use it as a tool for awareness.. even make it a DLC in the future with proceeds going to say a Childrens Hospital or Childrens Chairty to finding a cure for cancer.

this would be the same approach another game I found did when it had children in a war zone. they donated all the proceeds (or most of it, i think) to a charity that helps children escape and have a better life after being affected by a warzone or war.

It's not about realism. It's about the wish of the developers. Remember, this isn't a big studio but a bunch of enthusiasts. Imagine for a moment that one of them lost a child or a loved one ... and now they should add the very illness to the game.

I'd like mods that added maternity and pediatrics, and an actual ER would be great too. This whole "sorry Frank, you only sliced your hand open so you'll have to wait till morning" thing is kinda realism breaking. People don't just injure themselves in a 8 hour time frame. Immortal kids or no proper ER, think not having a proper ER is the bigger immersion breaker.
