Stamina regen too slow?

[Boy Weevil]

Does anybody else find stamina regeneration way too slow?

Yes, I am eating high tier foods.
Yes I am well rested.
Yes, I know how to parry and time my attacks.

Still, I find myself constantly standing in one place for what feels like 10+ seconds just... waiting. Waiting for my stamina to regenerate. Or walking in slow circles around enemies, feeling not in danger, just somewhat annoyed while again waiting for my stamina to regenerate.

When so much of playtime revolves around doing nothing but waiting, it seems clear things could use some balancing.

Thoughts?

A quick and reliable fix would be to totally not use a third party program that allows you to modify values in memory to get around that and just wait for a patch.

Tasty mead.

I dunno... My stamina drains and regens based on all the normal modifiers, but I never find myself standing around waiting for it. I just keep going, I don't even use the mead...

I think stamina management is the key, if you're traveling then alternate run/sprint, if you're fighting then maybe slow your blocks & swings, stepping in and out of combat as needed so you're not completely draining it.

idk either, but i will say i wouldnt be against a very slight increase, it remains to be seen i guess.

[WolfOfLight]

It's actually right on par with most survival games having a stamina mechanic. No better, no worse.
I understand it's value in this kind of game, but after a decade of dealing with it in games, it's getting to be a bit stale.

This. With rest, it's fine, but when it's gone so is your stamina.

You're in luck, Coffee Stain Studios said they will remove the stamina bar so you can run straight up a mountain and cut 4 wolves into pieces without worrying about nutrition and pacing yourself in combat.

They're the publisher, but I look forward to this as well as the new drones they're adding to the game.

nice try.

but since when the publisher is going to change something in a game? ;-)

tbh, the whole stamina- and rested-system is kinda meh.
Duh i'm a frkn Viking, and no matter what i am doing... i have to stop after a few seconds.. because i dont have stamina... welp.
Or maybe it's some kind of Viking-asthma, i'm not sure...

Of course, there is always Tasty meade...

My biggest issue is not really being able to watch the stamina bar AND the hit point bar while I am engaged in combat. I'm friggin' busy and by the time I glance at either one I am usually dangerously low.

Gurgle, blood, dead.

Quoting myself to make a public statement.
No, this is not an invitation to game developers to make survival games with both stamina and endurance,

So if you sprint and jump flat out to the point of exhaustion how long does it take the average human to recover? I think they are being generous. Honest at best , in relation to your concerns.
