  • Good point there Miso.

  • My theory arises from the art in one of the hidden rooms, which features dim light, filtered through the windows, and herbs, mushrooms, and bog plants growing in planters down either side of the room.  Perhaps these will be an available option with the housing upgrades?  Perhaps mushroom-growing (Fungiculture) will be a new skill requiring Herbalism.

  • Presumably we'll be able to grow them.

  • By then we'll have to be able to grow or harvest mushrooms and keep beehives.

  • And press olives, mix dressing, and brew beer. And fish. And...

  • I hope we get to fish! Something more practice-based than click-the-enter-key-based would add a whole new element of awesome.

  • Oh, me too, Kirnan! But...what about honey? will we be able to learn the art of keeping bees, one hopes?
    Posted 12 months ago by Dahlia DreadNaught Subscriber! | Permalink
  • I think that honey should be collected like Jellisacs, maybe from a knot or hole in a tree.
    Posted 12 months ago by Rosencrantz Subscriber! | Permalink
  • But, if you can raise and harvest bees and honey yourself there is a long list of new skills to learn.

  • And a new clothing line...bee keepers protective clothing   :)

  • Honey harvesting would be fun like jellisac harvesting!

  • I would dearly love beekeeping!  (And wouldn't it be cool if the bees gave your crops/herbs a bit of a boost?  Bring pollination to Ur!)

  • Maybe we can get honey from those trees with eyes peering out of them

  • I'd love it if we could "scare" bears to get honey :) Although that would make it a resource on par with grain/milk/meat.

  • Pollinating bees = Awesome (+1 Georgia).

    Also Honey Trees!

  • an island covered in beehives.  also fish trees and mushrooms.

    problem SOLVED.

  • Forget food items, where will I get my CUBI BOXES? *weep*
    Posted 12 months ago by Delyth Subscriber! | Permalink
  • Oh, no no no. Please no honey as jellisacs xD I don't think I'd EVER get enough honey to make my butterfly eggs if that's how it worked xD 

    See, what happens, is one person needs honey so they run through the honey region and collect it. Sounds fine right? Except, afterward there's no honey in the entire world for ~10 minutes while it recollects. So I'd probably prefer if honey was more like peat bogs xD There in some crazy honey pond in the ground :) Possibly in some new island near Ix and Uralia with a candy/sweets sort of theme.

  • I have been looking forward to beekeeping since the first day I started playing Glitch.
    Posted 12 months ago by Landar Subscriber! | Permalink
  • Just so you guys know, not all vendors are going away.  Don't think that we will have no vendors, they will merely be phasing out most vendors and what they sell.  That is all.

  • This thread makes me hungry.  :: drools ::
    Posted 12 months ago by ♪♥~ Auren ~♥♪ Subscriber! | Permalink
  • In any case this is Glitch, not the mundane world.  Honey probably won't be coming from bees.  We'll have to havest and process aardvark ear wax or something similar.

  • I really hope the vendors do stay, as I have proposed marriage to one in Uralia and I would hate to lose him D:

    I also want fish to come from a fish tree! Imaginary-cruelty-free AND strangely smelly!
    Posted 12 months ago by Pyrrhocorax Subscriber! | Permalink
  • Bees and fishing. Cool. As long as it is not on the community garden model, or open to tree-war-like messing about.

    I'd love a bee hive at home, and a fishing pond. :)

  • If the produce vendors go, pity the newbies!  Forced to grow their produce in the community gardens (shudder) until they can afford to buy a residence...
    Posted 12 months ago by LynnieR Subscriber! | Permalink
  • Get honey from mining--"sweet honey from the rock." :)
    Posted 12 months ago by walls Subscriber! | Permalink
  • No, if produce vendors go, the newbies will have to buy produce at the auction from their fellow players.  Nothing more and nothing less.

  • A residence costs $1,000.  I earned that in the first few hours I played, starting at Level 1.

  • Maybe we will have to squeeze a bear for honey.
    Posted 12 months ago by Casombra Amberrose Subscriber! | Permalink
  • lol, or tickle him--and when he laughs the honey comes out his nose.

  • Black and yellow striped koala sized bears that hang out in the tree tops would be cute and finally give the tall wood areas stuff to do up there.

    Id Like to see fish and fishing as its own skill sets but maybe fishing in unusual places like clouds.

    Ice could be mined from ice areas north of our current map limit.

    Mushrooms id like too see maybe as a new animal wandering around (limited to swamp areas perhaps). It could fit into current animal skills and you could use the egg seasoner to get Spores that hatch mini-shrooms

    I don't know about my other ursine bretheren, but it's gonna take a lot of squeezing and cubimals to get any honey from this bear. <g>

  • Instead of fishing and beekeeping, have beeing and fishkeeping.
    Posted 12 months ago by The Mighty Dino Subscriber! | Permalink
  • I like the koala idea-- it's a resource point readily accessible that isn't reachable from the ground. (Yes, you can usually reach butterflies with a small jump.)

    ROFLMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • If the vendors are retired, I hereby extend an invitation to any firebog vendor to come live in my house. They are beautiful and I would be sad to not see them anymore. It wouldn't need to sell things - it could just hover benignly and glow when I walk past it.

  • I doubt they will be phased out entirely. They just won't be one every street.

  • Kirnan - Just so you guys know, not all vendors are going away. Don't think that we will have no vendors, they will merely be phasing out most vendors and what they sell. That is all.

    Stoot - • The few remaining things which can only be bought from vendors (with currants) will be made craftable by players. Later, vendors will at first stop buying things they don't "need" and vendor buy prices will become variable. Finally, game-run vendors (generally) won't buy stuff at all. (Our long term goal is to completely eliminate game-run vendors, though player-run vendors would be ace.)

    So, yes, eventually ALL vendors will be going away. Personally, I'm not happy about it, but I guess we'll just have to wait and see how it works.
    Posted 11 months ago by Audaria Subscriber! | Permalink
  • So, wait just one minute.

    No vendors, because we'll be able to make everything the vendors now sell.

    Cubimals come from vendors.

    Will we be able to MAKE CUBIMALS?  *Head asplodes*

    (My real guess is that the cubimals will go away entirely or become super extra rare.  But I can dream....)

  • Can we just keep ONE vendor? please? just one?? please????
    Posted 11 months ago by Gwynne Subscriber! | Permalink
  • Judging by the pace of game updates this winter, it will be many months before vendors are even close to phased out - even the time when they stop buying (and only sell goods) sounds like it's several iterations into the future.  Don't waste your time imagining and fearing that playing the game at that point will be anything like playing the game now except without vendors; it will be a different experience.

  • The tool vendor in Cebarkul told me yesterday that it had "zero interest" in buying one of my music blocks (can't remember which, sorry.)  The second time I tried, it took it without issue, but it did seem strange and definitely like a sign of the times!
    Posted 11 months ago by Wintera Woodswitch Subscriber! | Permalink
  • maybe, maybe not. I've had the tool vendor occasionally refuse things like metal ingots, or planks, or things that it normally buys, then it takes them on the next click. I think it's a random error. 
    Posted 11 months ago by Snowpea Subscriber! | Permalink
  • Wintera, I believe it happens when you're selling a lot of stuff really quickly. It's been happening to me for months. :)
