Vegetarian?

Post by Nut »

Did anyone already try to play as a vegetarian? No meat, no bonemeal? Maybe no leather armour?

Interesting thought. I've gone non-bonemeal twice. But not without meat.

But you forgot the joy of Blackwater brew and bread. That's a better meal

If you're killing rats and dogs and foxes and so forth then you might as well wear the leather, ethically it's on the same level. Can't really go full vegan in a killing game.

I stock up on bread and munch on that most of the time.

When I level up some more I'm planning to get the Corpse Eater skill... as a vegetarian, I try not to think about what it means.

LOL
I'm a vegetarian in real life (NOT a vegan), and I reflexively avoided meat in the game. But I didn't even think about bonemeal. Also LoL-squared, I killed a million puppies to sell the meat.
But my concern is methane; not ethics, anyways :)

Well bonemeal is prohibited lol but I guess drinking the bone isn't as bad as eating the meat

It's funny. In real life I'm keto-vegetarian, and in the game I never touched meat OR bread.
But I wasn't even thinking; second nature thing.
R.e. bonemeal, here again I'm not inconsistent, as in real life I do take supplements of animal origin: omega 3 fish oil, krill oil AND seal oil, plus shark cartilage extract capsules.

Still nothing wrong with that. And I have never heard of seal oil. (Well whale and seal oil for lamps back in the day)

You find it at Eastern food stores. I don't know how good it is, but th price is right so I added it to my other omega 3 supplements. And I forgot to mention Cod's Liver oil.
American indians' diets had an estimated 17 grams of omega 3, but people think taking 6 or 7 capsules, totaĺing about 3 grams is excessive. Our diets have almost no omega 3 at all; just a bit from eggs; and if you are vegan, none at all.
Most people don't know that the richest source of vitamin C is red meat. The catch is, you have to eat it raw. Cooking the meat destroys the ascorbic acid.
This is NOT a recommendation! Cheaper and safer to buy vtamin C.
Red meat (all meats really) have vitamin C because animals synthesize it.
Your dog produces 10 to 20 grams per day.
Humans and a couple other apes are the only animals that cannot make vit C. A bad genetic mutation.
