some thoughts for updates

1) I have forage. if I walk right next to a huge body of water that is not salty or icky swamp, I think I should automatically fill my water pouch/thirst. the water looks super healthy and running. it is weird to be low on water, a bit thirsty, and walk next to a river 20 steps and never "find" water.

2) I loved the whole barrel thing in E 1 and 2. but I getting a bit tired of hauling fucking barrels around.

to quote wikipedia "Dynamite was invented by Alfred Nobel and was the first safely manageable explosive stronger than black powder." I got alchemy that make me see in dark, make me superhuman strong, I figured out how to stick a wick in a barrell, but I can't take a barrel and make dynamite? I wanna make dynamite instead of lugging around barrels. It is no fun to find a damn barrel, haul to to ceramic jar, blow it up and get crap loot. that is not fun. if I had dynamite in my pack, that weighed less, that would be cool. I can see needing a whole barrel for some things. or multiple sticks of dynamite for some jobs.

3) love the game!

4) miss sitting in foraginng but I guess Roleplaing being broke a## mutha effer is ok for once. not really a update, just a thought.

Alfred Nobel isn't from Eschalon, there's no dynamite for you.

Bummer. I have been collecting unused barrels when I can and storing them in same place. So that makes it easier when I need to blow up something . I still like barrels I just think in third game maybe something new.

How do you move a non-explosive barrel? I thought they were inanimate. Otherwise you could move all sealed barrels on a map and destroy them with one explosive barrel. Can we do that?

No, you can't move regular barrels, just powder kegs.
