Heavy Sigh posted:So, now lacking glasses and with them basic competence, does Skye have any useful skills at all, or she just an added nuisance to deal with for our ravenous, dehydrated and beat-up protagonist on this deserted(?) island? I never actually finished this game because it can REALLY drag at points, so I'm looking forward to following this!

This game also has a secondary game mode where you play as Skye, so if she were actually blind they wouldn't have been able to do that. I would be all coy about spoilers or whatever, but the instruction manual reveals the existence of this mode freely so I don't feel it's a secret at all. Also, like I said, Skye will start to do some things to earn her keep soon, and again, if she were fully blind some of these things would be fairly difficult.

Some folks aren't quite so lucky as us. I'm 20/70 in one eye and 20/80 in the other without my glasses. You certainly don't want me flying a fighter jet, but it doesn't stop me from doing any of the major activities of daily living, and there's no reason I couldn't go crabbing or whatever either. This is especially true since I'm nearsighted, and if I'm working at less than double or triple my arm's length, for practical purposes I can see as well as anyone. However, some people who are legally blind without their glasses (20/200) can still be corrected to 20/40 or better, particularly if they don't have astigmatism. But...if their glasses are destroyed or lost, they're still legally blind. Presuming Skye is legally blind or close to it without her glasses, it actually explains her role and behaviors in Keith's playthrough pretty well.

You can get as many as you want, but time passes while you're standing there, waiting for a fish to roll by. So it's not like you can just spear 50 pounds worth of bass in a morning and be free of food pressure for a week.

Yup, here's the point I put down this game, never to pick it up again. That god damned piece of poo poo raft is the biggest pain in the rear end.

Yeah, traps basically include animal drops as part of your daily gathering routine. It's kind of nice since there's so much you can do with fur and bone. Well worth the investment if you're a magpie, but most anything you get in there is replaceable. Also, Skye WILL just drink from the barrel, but there's obviously the problem of having to fill it manually. So basically that means going to the river, filling your bottles, going back, dumping them in the drum, and doing it again another dozen loving times. You can seriously lose an entire day just filling the loving barrel.

It's just lost. A specific meal is made up of a couple different ingredients, so that's why it's even possible to get over 100%.

Who in the gently caress thought block pushing puzzles were a good mechanic for a game that bills itself as a survival experience?
