I don't think it's what food they like, it's that certain foods are worth more experience. There is a chart on the left side during the Tavern animation that shows the XP values of the different foods. Berries are worth 1.

@marashade2226 9 ай бұрын

Actually, it is both. Like you said, foods have certain XP values, like berries 1 XP and fish 2 XP. But there are for example several kinds of meat and each unit likes one specific meat which gives them 5 XP, any other meat gives them 3 XP. At least that was how it was in a previous version a few months ago. Maybe now there's even a unit that likes fish (or Burgers, which are new) and gets extra XP from that.

@TreguardD 9 ай бұрын

I think Splat read some old information elsewhere. From what I could tell, "favorite foods" no longer exist. It's now 1 xp for berries, 2 xp for raw meat, 3 for cooked meat (and bread) and 4 xp for meals. Raw meat in the inventory *after* mealtime becomes cooked, and cooked meat *after* meal time becomes a meal. Heroes will eat bread before cooked meat.

@kgoblin5084 9 ай бұрын

@@TreguardD kind of makes sense, given it looks like you have no control on what food is available, thus making favorite foods no better than random XP gains, & actually worse since it would encourage you to intentionally gimp your food economy if you have a bunch of berry loving unit types. If they add some ability to farm specific foods, would make sense to add it back.

There's a reason for that. It's relatively low budget in graphical asset terms and people are familiar with the style of game, UI and so on, aka design language. I don't see that as a problem in and of itself, the problem is more that devs don't introduce enough new mechanics and interactions

they attack the closest enemy to their fixed position, you can see the range of the attack, and in the case of ranged units they have a min distance from them to attack. They attack until they kill the unit, and select the next one based on that. So they never consider AOE and other stuff..

Played the demo for a good chunk of time and it was alright. It very much felt like if I didn't make every click count and follow a very specific course of action that I was going to fail. The meta game progression felt less like a boon and more like a necessity to even maybe sort of hopefully achieve anything. I'm hoping that some of that is just the demo and will be worked out come the final game.
