Devs did what they have done before. "Hey, this needs a tweak." Tweak=nurf into the ground. Bow were ok, then they made feathers hard to find AND nurfed the bow's hitting power as well as add additional reload mechanic. Crossbow they added a LONG reload. In A20, there viable again... maybe too good. So I'm expecting the nurf hammer. Now there doing this to farming again. Farm plots, was the first nurf. Now this whole seed thing was the nurf sledgehammer. With 5 of us playing on the server, makes food far too tedious so going to be doing some XML editing. I already tweak the stack sizes so you don't need 400 storage crates to support the group. though in the past we did and used them to build the inner walls of the base.
