I saw in one of the vids the devs saying about messing with alchemy. I think it would be quite cool if your wounds actually acted like wounds instead of just a lower health bar. For example you can mix herbs and poultices to help aid healing your wounds. You could however choose not to and end up with them festering and eventually even causing damage to your character unless you get it seen to. Then of course you can experiment with different poultices with some being more effective than others. Just an idea. I’m sure it could be built on from that but it was just a general thought I had.
Leeches, anyone? It’s time for your weekly bloodletting.
On a more serious note. It would be cool to have this feature but I’m not so entirely sure if it should be medieval-simulator authentic.
The just a gesture on something realistic made simple to treat your character would be fine IMO. Bandages to stop bleeding at the very least.
I would love that!
I mean its strange, when the game is really abnormaly realistic in some parts (for example fruit rotting in your inventory if its there for too long), and unrealistic in otherparts.
I understand that features like these could make someone feel that its too hard and complicated and its draging the fun from the game. So maybe it could be made like on/off feauture. Or in general, game could have some Inferno Op Nightmare Realistic Difficulity, where you would have these wounds, be sick sometimes, you would not have One Button To Block Them All during a fight and so on. I would be so happy if this difficulity would be implemented. Because I dont want this to be half super realistic and half standart game clichee’s. I want just realistic.

Thats a great Idea!
I dont know how you are planning to do the health system but that would be a nice feature.
Would be cool if theres someone like a barber-surgeon or medieval doctor where you can go and buy potions and let your wounds be healed. And treat wounds yourself with collected herbs and own made potions would be another option.
But I think you’ll make a good job on this Warhorse
Those are just Ideas, you have to select wich ones are practicable.
