Does anyone else think it's rediculous?

I think it's absurd that I can eat 2 chicks, and get fat instantly...
That's not realistic at all!
Why would they even put that feature in there?!
Then I can eat a couple peices of celery, and everythings good again?
I know they're trying the whole "subliminal messaging" thing, by getting us to use condoms, and eating good...
But doesn't it defeat the purpose if I can just eat 2 peices of celery and be healthy again?

its because celery is the only supposed "negative calorie" food!
and chicks don get you fat, just corrupt

It's also not subliminal messaging, which refers to a very specific effect, where images or sounds or whatever are shown, and not percieved, but influence the subconscious mind.

However, it did make me go on an all-celery diet, so who knows*?

But no, I don't think it's a moral of the story kind of thing. They just put that kind of thing in as part of being able to customize your character; and your decisions affect everything. That's part of it. Eat nothing but pie, become a blimp.

*My hero. Not me. He got fat when I burned through all my health potions and food when I was fighting... somebody, I don't remember who.

It takes alot more than 2 bits of celery to get thin again, but yeah, i see what you mean. You can only lose weight from eating Celery? How odd. Im sure running is healthy too? :S

Not as far as I know, unfortunately. I had to seriously chow down on the celery. Not sure if I'm all the way thin again even now. Pot belly... not attractive.

But yeah, only Celery. Or at least that's the only thing I remember seeing "Fat -5%" or whatever.

Quite annoying tbh. Had to eat about 30 pieces of celery to get down to normal. Still look like a fat pig though.

Yeahh.
With all the running that we do in game, you'd think that the hero would stay thin?
And, I can literally watch my body size change every time that I eat a pie, or piece of celery.
Drives me insane that I can drink 40 beers, get a pot belly...But then when I do 5 girls in an orgy, I don't lose any weight!
*Very angry face here*

On pub games, you can win a pie that gives -90 fatness ;>

Potions make you fat? News to me. I'm reasonably sure it's just pies and meat and beer that does that.

And yeah, there's a "post thread" button in the upper left of the board page.
