My first thought is "why?" Hunger and Thirst mechanics are staples of the 'survival' genre, which Ashes is not. If it were able to add something tangible for players then I guess maybe, but it's not really a part of MMO RPGs for a reason - it just doesn't serve a purpose. The driving force of survival games is...surviving. Having hunger and thirst in those games makes sense as it pushes the player to seek out ever-more-efficient means of procuring those items. That's not really a thing in Ashes (and personally I hope it never is). It just doesn't seem to me that it would have a place.

I'm curious as to why you would want it though. Since you're asking for it, what do you see in those mechanics that you think would benefit Ashes?

How so? How about making it an area where you gain more corruption when killing players, killing monsters and death reduces less corruption, monsters there are stronger th...
