Unedible Ingredients

Jiub815 · Post by **Jiub815** » Thu Aug 06, 2009 12:04 am

Hey, I don't know if we can change this or not, but there are way to many inedible ingredients in morrowind that you can eat (ie: scrap metal, ebony ore, diamonds, etc.) Also, many edible ingredients have unlikely effects -- for example, why would moon sugar, which is an illegal narcotic, have completely benificial effects? (I put this in the quest\lore section only because I don't know where it should go)

This doesn't really fall within the scope of the project. Also, the primary problem with moon sugar is its addictiveness, which is not represented by any game mechanic.

Lol Lud.

This does raise some interesting questions, eat a piece of adamantium ore and automatically you've eaten 50(lbs?) (or units of wieght). Pardon me when I say this but you'd be literally shitting bricks.

also Moonsugar = Cocaine, think of it like that.

I wish I had that chatlog where eating glass was discussed. Very lulzworthy.

My least favorite ingredient was the corprus weepings. Can you imagine eating someone's puke-like flesh?

Quote found on UESP: "Corprus weepings are hardened secretions that fall from the fleshy sores of corprus victims."

Yum yum - sounds tasty!!

Mmm... I remember when I first encounted weepings back in 2003. Heh, It didnt exactly appeal much to my stomach, back then, either.

Reminds me of the following quote from The Simpsons:

Mr Burns: "Well thats leporacy for you!"

another thing that would be cool is if someone could script potions and ingredients to spoil after a certain amount of time.
