Fantasy without Chocolate?

Heattanu · 06-09-2006, 02:51 AM

I strongly object to the way the tradeskill revamp has removed all food or drink recipes that contained chocolate. It's not real fantasy food if it doesn't have some chocolate.

Do it for Niami Denmother, if for no other reason.

Xebed · 06-09-2006, 04:00 AM

Jathal · 06-09-2006, 05:14 AM

Maroger · 06-09-2006, 07:26 AM

Definately KEEP CHOCOLATE!!

Calthine · 06-09-2006, 08:52 AM

wait.. if we get to keep chocolate, can we have some dark chocolate too?

Rijacki · 06-09-2006, 09:16 AM

Maybe the brownies will drop chocolate again *impish grin*

Grimjakk · 06-09-2006, 09:23 AM

Heh... I can just see 'em scrambling to add it in as a quested recipe to stave off the ravening hordes...

Master71 · 06-09-2006, 12:42 PM

I can stand a lot of changes, nerfing, uping, removing, renaming, and many other MMo related duties.But...Removing chocolate...This, and this only, is the nerf I'll never accept. :/

Feydakeen · 06-09-2006, 02:14 PM

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOoooooooooooooo keep the chocolate !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

/petition SOE

Ebjelen · 06-09-2006, 03:53 PM

I can feel the depression of chocolate withdrawal already :smileysad:

Bithnar · 06-09-2006, 04:19 PM

*begs for a chocolate recipie*

Make a quested recipe for chocolate and call it Niami's Family Recipie and start it in Rivervale

msheaf · 06-09-2006, 04:39 PM

How dare they deprive out toons of one of the basic food groups. We may have to find us a rope and tree if we don't get us some chocolate back. :smileyhappy:

I'm not a real big chocolate fan in real life, probably because I'm a guy. But I can't beleive the removed it from the game!10-1 odds a male programmer did that without ever thinking of the outcry that would arize from the female contingent of EQ2 players. SMILEY

msheaf · 06-09-2006, 06:23 PM

I'm a guy and a programmer and would never consider doing such a thing. SMILEY

Joren_Wolfheart · 06-09-2006, 07:11 PM

Actual account of me on the day of TU24It all happened so fast...One second, I was at the stove, making the chocolate brownie recipe that my mother taught me when all the sudden everything went black.When I came to, I started frantically searching all around for what I assumed would be ruined brownies, but alas, I saw only flour and eggs. I searched everywhere for chocolate, even going to the sales clerk in Wayfarer's Stocpilers, begging for the components I needed for my special treat.I frantically seached his shelves, where I can distinctly remember there being chocolate bars, only to find nothing.He informed me that through some action unseen force (I know that only Bristlebane himself could have come up with such a devious plot) that it seemed that all chocolate everywhere in Norrath had disappeared.In my fit of grief, I threw together a most horrid drink to help me get rid of my sorrow/frustration. Everything I had went in, roots, fish, even loams from the very rocks themselves. You know... it wasn't half bad... I may have to start selling them...Either way, the Queen will NOT be happy that her brownies will not be delivered on schedule.

Tuvoccat · 06-09-2006, 07:41 PM

NO CHOCOLATE :smileymad:

OK I now join the ranks of players who threaten to close their EQ account :smileysurprised:

Razorbak · 06-09-2006, 08:14 PM

Bring back chocolate. And make them into small round bits that are covered in colored candy :-b

Rhizel · 06-09-2006, 08:40 PM

definitely going to make stacks of it before update hits... worth more than 200 year old scotch!

Jaymist · 06-09-2006, 08:46 PM

I agree!! Don't take away our Chocolate!! :smileysad:

Tirga · 06-09-2006, 09:07 PM

What is with this senseless act of chocolate removal? Don't remove the chocolates!

Etherium · 06-10-2006, 01:13 AM

Will my chocolate bars vanish if I make a bunch of them? I too want chocolate!

NiamiDenMother · 06-10-2006, 01:42 AM

Flattered as I am by the folks taking my name in vain, I don't need something more named after me. SMILEY

I know from a coding point of view it was just one of the many things removed when he streamlined provisioning, but the reaction on the test channel when we realized it was enlightening. I felt bad for Joren's RL wife when she heard the news. Not the sort of shock you want to give a pregnant woman!

From an rp perspective, I've two pet theories. Either this is some evil plan of the Overlord, or it is some gnomish experiment gone horribly awry. Hopefully some day we will see the return of chocolate to the lands once again.

Meanwhile, no, you won't lose any pre-made chocolate goodies that you have stored away.

Yeah! blame the dark elves.. or the trolls. Hmmm.. yeah.. trolls. It's was 'cause of the trolls. They're smelly and just don't understand *nod*. Beghn is a troll 'cause he took away our chocolate.

Kadurm · 06-10-2006, 02:58 AM

Heck, bring back chocolate the RIGHT way, make a Godiva merchant.
