Greetings fellow gods,
Today, I have a new skill for you - Agriculture. It's been a while since we had one, the last time being Thievery before the EA release, so it felt like a good time to finally expand our possibilities again.
The new skill focuses on food production, allowing one to gather and plant seeds, cook delicious meals, and find new profitable opportunities in the world.
Agriculture uniquely offers only 30 levels instead of the typical 50, and that's on purpose. I've heard your feedback about some skills, and even though they provide exciting things, they are not worth 40 potential points when competing with combat skills, so I wanted to use this opportunity to experiment here and see what you think, potentially condensing some other skills in the future.
Also, for those who asked for a way to leave a legacy in the world - you can now plant a tree that will grow for 30 years. House building was already available. So we're missing a way to create descendants, and the game is complete, right? ;)
