Suggestions / More ambient sounds

« on: August 10, 2017, 12:12:01 AM »

Seeing that the game has such high potential for letting you immerse yourself in the (unreal) world it creates, i think it would be just that more awesome if there were more ambient sounds based on location, season, or time of day, etc. It doesn't have to be something terribly complex. Just a sound file for forest during the day and during the night, one for forest during winter, a village, maybe when near the seaside or a river. Stuff like that.

These days, when i play, i like to keep this running in the background, and i feel it ads a lot to the atmosphere: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OdIJ2x3nxzQ . And i found another one that will work very well during the winter: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k4P5oxIWOiU

But it would be tedious to change between a night sounds, day sounds, village, seaside etc on Youtube. So that's why i think the game's immersion would profit quite a lot from implementing these soundscapes

Gameplay questions / Traps - what am i doing wrong?

« on: August 08, 2017, 02:53:59 AM »

Ok, here i am with another question. I've been trapping for the last couple of days (about a month in game), but nothing seems to catch on.

I've first tried placing pit traps in an area where there were Elk tracks, and i've positioned them the way you see in the screenshot, but nothing ever fell in them. I've even tried the Favor of the trap ritual until i've upset some spirits, and still nothing. Thing is, a few times when i came back to check on them there were fresh tracks of elk right next to a couple of pits, but nothing inside.

I have a trapping skill of 31%, so upon reading on the forums, i've started placing lots of light lever in lines around a lake, but nothing fell in those neither.

So? am i doing something wrong? is that suppose to happen at my skill level? Do traps just really take a long time to catch something?

Gameplay questions / Shaman won't heal me

« on: August 06, 2017, 06:37:53 PM »

Hello guys.

I have this problem wherein the shaman from a village doen't want to teach me rituals, or even heal me. i get the "Bah! I'm not in the mood of helping you with that" line of dialogue. And i don't know how to change it. It probably got like that after i've been a big fidgety with a few trades. I didn't pay right away, and one time i simply cancelled the trade because i didn't have enough valuable goods, so after that, all the villagers started calling me a "frequent nuisance". And that's when the shaman stopped offering me his services too.

Thing is that now i did some communal work for the village. I crafted some weapons and boards, and gave them for free, which improved my relations with the villagers until they started calling me "frequent guest" and then "kaumolais man". But the shaman still refuses to help me.

So what should i do? I'm in a sort of predicament, as well, because i got in a fight with some bandits, and now i can't even stand up due to the injuries, and the shaman doesn't want to heal me.
