Mortal Online launches the Dawn expansion at some unknown point in the near future, and among the new features is a cooking system that allows players to cook pretty much anything they want (although cooking rocks won’t result in a healthy meal), and with the cooking system comes a weight system. Gorge yourself on food, and you will gain weight, and naturally your stats will change with your increased/decreased girth. Another feature being presented is cannibalism, the ability to not only kill a player and loot them, but eat their corpse to regain health.
Luckily, Henrik confirmed a question I’ve been wondering for a good while now: Is it possible to eat yourself? The answer? Yes.
“Cooking gives new interesting surprices everyday…
Today Sebastian and me was playing, I killed sebastian, when he came back he took his own corpse which had a certain weight.. he couldnt resist to taste him self…. and started to eat, he filled is stomach with the carcass which wasnt to good for his health. After that I just had to kill him again, he came back once again and looted his new carcass, now he found something interesting, his new carcass had an increased weight.. thats because he stuffed him self with his previous carcass. so you see we now have weight as well and it works just like it should in real life, pretty cool.. Then I took his head and logged out with it haha. Funny little moments we have at the office, just wanted to share it with you as well.”
If you ate your own carcass that was stuffed with the consumed carcass of yourself that your previous self had eaten, would you become twice as fat, or would the resultant paradox simply shut down the Mortal Online servers and give you a massive nosebleed?
Mortal Online’s Dawn expansion comes out sometime either late this month or early next month, while Star Vault works out last minute issues.
