Expect a push for labelling, like the push to prevent products like soy milk from using the name "milk"

There is certainly no consumer demand for pink slime, if you recall when that was a big thing in the news a decade ago. But if producers are geared towards efficiently getting every last fleck of chicken or beef or whatever and masking it in cheap, formless food, it either comes down to a cost factor for production (and finding an alternative use for the remnants product) or competition against a superior product made with synthetic meat. My thoughts though are all predicated on the near-term continued slaughter for other "formed" meat products because my presumption is that a cut of steak is harder to replicate than ground beef.

It's something that could very easily replace formless/ground meat products as long as taste and texture are consistent. Though my question, because I don't really know the process, is how much of those products are made with the "leftovers" on carcasses? Thinking along the lines of McNuggets and pink slime. Because if those products are made with leftovers with have no other use and they need to slaughter for other purposes (like steaks or wings or whatever), my second thought is maybe there won't be as much financial incentive for existing producers to transition.

can't sleep, my Monday is ruined

Luuv didn't want to be associated, but then when I took over there wasn't much of a paper plan to follow in that regard so I reverted to it primarily being the ASMB community. But fair point nonetheless.

hi nothingfac3

I thought about trying to bridge that, but I'm not even sure if that crew has the patience for the old school format.

here is the full list of events so far: https://animalcrossing.fandom.com/wiki/Events_(New_Horizons). easter was the only holiday solely centered around crafting, with the eggs and yeah everyone agreed it was tedious because there were no other components to it. you could entirely skip crafting in the halloween event, which just helped you get most of the items prior to the actual event. thanksgiving would probably lean towards crafting - but collecting raw ingredients for franklin was part of the even in prior iterations so that. yes, tools breaking can be annoying, and there is a definite need for QOL changes to the crafting process (crafting multiples in bulk, crafting multiple phases of tools at once), but having crafting as an additional option in and of itself is only a net positive. and there's no requirement that anyone spend time crafting. 90% of the time I play just like I did in old games - I spend a half hour or 45 minutes mentally decompressing by doing a loop around my island, finding all the fossils and talking to each villager once, working on museum stuff, then I visit the store/sell off that inventory and stop playing for the day. no one is holding a gun to anyone's head forcing them to craft and I generally don't spend any time crafting, but that the additional option is there certainly isn't a negative.

I think for future reference you gotta scale pummel party games based on how many players

a like is a "yes" a reply is a "yes, and"

oh I guess I didn't phrase my question properly - is that still the case if you spend the 75K stardust on opening up the second move slot? that's what I meant to ask but I'm dumb.

@viperxmns so uh the gifts count for more than one day of friendship leveling right now and... now we're best friends. I had an egg popped for a raid I failed at so I made out, but I would've asked you if you wanted to coordinate if I knew.

The updates are adding the seasonal content, with minor additions/QOL. There's definitely more QOL stuff they could do, but they recently announced they're going to keep doing updates for as long as the game has a player base. Also The holiday events were *always* about grinding for exclusive furniture series and clothes.
