Just restarting this.

Whoever made the old Byproducts system please put their accomplishments in the publication of some math journal. I cannot overstate how much of an accomplishment that was or how much of a loss to gaming it was to have them removed. Even the old cooking byproducts now stands out as the accomplishment of a true genius. Recognize them for it. Even if it is only internally. Brilliance like that doesn't come along often. 

I remember the old system with much fondness.  You actually had to deal with several people, which gave them purpose and brought the world more to life.  Now, things are being simplified to stupidity.  Liana is the only one who has meaning in this world, anymore.

classic chumo, you never fail to impress. 

indeed the new direction with by-products is lack luster, because in many ways they are supposed to be a nerf. 

Also, the by-products for things like gathering that were recently added- this addition is many years too late. 

no comment!
