In my opinion, what you get from running shoes is artificial (synthetic) leather so it's vegan. They just don't differentiate between natural and artificial leather to keep the game simple (similar to lamp oil which can be kerosene or fish oil). Besides: have you ever tried to walk a long distance in difficult terrain without any shoes? I think there should be some in-game penalty for doing so, e.g. reduced speed & health loss).

I'm not vegan but it's in my area of interest. Some of the stuff you said seemed very weird to me(crude oil not being vegan??) and alien to the typical ethical / harm reduction concerns that I associate with veganism. A useful phrase is "to the extent possible and practicable" so for example the ground-up insects in grains and the small animal deaths from crop harvesting don't make those foods non-vegan. It's this clause that makes a lot of the concerns irrelevant in a survival situation. Killing animals for food when you must to survive isn't really at odds with veganism(although if we're good enough at the game, we don't need that to survive.) But the real departure from your rules occurs with found abandoned clothing, food, carcasses, and dead fish washed ashore. All of these are situations where any potential harm has already been done, and now we either make use of the resources or let them go to waste. A real-world counterpart would be making use of the meat, skin, bones, guts, etc of roadkill, which doesn't go against veganism as far as I'm concerned. Or salvaging some leather boots or wool clothing before it's sent to the landfill.
@underreigns
4 ай бұрын
Fully agree. The arguments against "making use" of these situations in our functioning societies is that it would incentive people to simply claim their stuff is roadkill or ethically harvested to avoid the backlash, but that's a capitalism problem, and as you said, not a survival problem. Agreement, but a clarifier for the real world. It still strikes me as odd not to use the found gear that contains, for example, wool, but you have to decide on a metric and that's the most true to form I guess.

the oil thing us a bit of a misnomer..... In actuality its the compressed biomatter from before the time of the dinosaurs really(before certain critters came about most things just died and chilled on the ground creating layers of everything, thats the SUPER simple explination). It is a mix of both animal and plant but is usually considered by most vegans I know to be far beyond the animals they once were. Its more about direct animal to product relationship, not animal to decomposed critter, to liquified, to buried....... lots of steps there. Also there are a lot of leather substitute products out there, some of which you can really only tell by the feel of the item(never found one that felt the same) and those are usually animal product free. I bet there is a wool substitute as well but don't quote me on that. FYI I an not a vegan, I just have vegan friends. I don't understand why people would do it in real life, but i suppose a challenge in a game is cool.

I don't think it's possible to survive long-term as Vegan challenge or Birch Bark Only challenge now that Scurvy is in TLD. You'd need to drink 3.3 Birch Tea every day just to keep Scurvy from advancing. One Birch Tea gives 6 units of Vitamin-C, and you consume 20 units per day on Interloper (500 max). Cattails give only 1. You can get Birch Bark/Cattails from beachcombing too, but I think the best places for it are Ravine, Pleasant Valley, Ash Canyon and Bleak Inlet: so a Vegan-only challenge would probably 'need' to travel between those 4 areas constantly just to survive.

I’ve had interesting conversations with my two vegan friends about reuse of items that aren’t friendly. My mother died and I inherited a mink and a fox fur coat. I gave the mink to a family friend (it was much too large for me, and very long), but I kept the fox fur. I hate the idea of fox hunting. But… the harm has already been done. I still need to be warm. So one of my friends feels it’s ethical to wear the fox fur because it prevents me from having to buy another coat, probably wool, to stay really warm in the winter. The other friend thinks it isn’t acceptable, to their code of ethics, because it shows tacit approval of the use of fox fur in clothing to wear, well, fox fur clothing. I personally don’t think me wearing the coat will make people think, “that’s definitely real and now I’m going to go buy that.” And since it already exists, and has for over a decade, I feel like someone should use it, rather than it being destroyed, sold for profit, or decaying in some attic. My mom was from a different era and had different stances about some things, but she loved me and wanted me to be warm (I have Reynaud’s and issues with my autonomic system, so temperature regulation is a big issue for me). So, I wear the fox fur when I really need it and thank my Mom for loving me and for being a good mother while I had her. I have seen the mink in action a few times since gifting it and it brings my friend a lot of joy. THAT coat is about 30 years old, and through a lot of care is still going strong. It’s something I’d never in a million years buy, so the decision on wearing it did take some thought. There are always “it’s not that deep, bro, it’s a coat, get a life,” people, and I get that, I really do, but I wanted to do a gut check and make sure I was being responsible in what I did. You don’t have to be vegan to want to think about the effect your presence in the world has ON the world.

The whole idea of being vegan, as I understand it, is to not cause harm to animals and to not support companies who do. So if you find a carcass, you're not hurting anything to use what's already dead whether that be using the hide to craft or even eating the meat to survive. Likewise, using found feathers to make arrows to defend against attacks. Of course, if I'm in a survival situation I'm using anything available to stay alive.

This is a much more interesting challenge than I had first thought… I think the non-vegan granola was an honest mistake so no reason to start over. I think the running shoes are safe and like you conjectured, getting leather from harvesting is just a game convention. However, crafting improvised crampons requires leather, and though the regular crampons don’t specify, I assume those straps are leather, though perhaps it’s just following that same convention. I am curious if surviving with only birchbark is still possible, so if you do continue this run, maybe you could pretend that you had gone through all the other world resources and were in the late-game stage…or maybe that’s its own run another day.

This was a fun video. Wool: I'd argue that wool is a renewable resource and is obtained without destruction or harm. Sheep are unharmed by the sheering process. In fact, they benefit from the sheering process. This stands in contrast to animal or fish whereby their pelts or meat can only be derived by a 'destructive' process. I'd argue wool does not compromise the vegan lifestyle, however, some vegans may argue to the contrary. Running shoes: Running shoes are constructed of petroluem based materials and do not utilize animal leather. Even the glue adhesives are synthetic. While the game mechanic breaksdown the shoes into leather, it is logical to overlook this a simple game mechanic. I'd argue that the running shoes would not be considered vegan and can be worn. Honey: As stated below, honey is made BY bees and is not made FROM bees - unlike Milk. While I'm not a vegan, my good friends were vegans and didn't have issues with Milk - because it didn't harm the animal. Kinda like my argument with Wool. From that standpoint, the Granola bars and Chocolate bars would be acceptable. Guess it all depends upon how you set up your terms. Down: Agree this is not acceptable. Body feathers are often harvested from ducks and geese raised for meat, so it's an easy call. Cramp-Ons: If you look at the construction materials, you need 2 x cured leather. You should NOT be wearing the cramp-ons. Period.

Vegan granola In think that you should be able to use the running shoes. They look like proper running shoes (my Hokas and New Balances have no leather whatsoever). Getting leather from harvesting them is just a game mechanic simplification. Repairing them with leather is out, but… what if the “leather” came directly from harvesting a second pair of running shoes 🤔. Also running around with no shoes is a bit silly. It’s just a game, of course, but you’d have frostbite in no time IRL. Allow yourself some shoes. The fleece mitts are fine as far as I can tell. Fleece refers to the type of fabrics, which are synthetic. This is a good series. I’d watch a second episode. Thank you!

This is a great challenge. A long time ago during Beta, I think a guy named Gamer Nate attempted to survive on only cattails. Of course, this was back when there was only ML, PV, TM, CH. Once again, this is terrific.

Honestly I personally believe that wool, like honey, is vegan. (Speaking from an NZ farmers perspective). Like honey, sheep need their fleece sheared off. Otherwise you get cases like sherk the sheep. He disappeared into the hills and was found unable to move because of the amount of wool on his body. While historically sheep would lose their wool when the seasons change, modern sheep no longer have this ability. Also (at least in NZ), our sheep are generally treated quite well. The economic reasoning is happy sheep = better product. The human side of it is because we care about them! We want to have happy healthy animals and take great care to ensure that they have a good life. Thats my 2¢ at least 😅

I would count the running shoes as vegan because the vast majority of those types of shoes use all synthetic materials (with the possible exception of rubber).

I feel like the running shoes are vegan. They are nylon and i think the game juat simplifies the material to being similar to leather when broken down in order not to have to introduce a whole new material mechanic. I would thing using leather to repair them would be non vegan because youre using the similar materials in the opposite order as leather being the replacement for nylon. So like found shoes are vegan, repairing them with leather is not. (Unless you count the beaking down of running shoes to be the nylon version of leather, in which case you can make a player exception to consider those specific pieces as nylon for repairs)

I can't be the only one who does this. as we're playing the game, we decide what we need to do when we need to do it, maybe where it needs to be done, based on our needs, perhaps the time, weather etc... but what about when we quit the game? who sits down and plots out what they need to do when they fire it up again? cos sometimes it can take a lot of planning. for example...I'm in CH right now. I had to go to DP to find the heavy hammer to make arrowheads with. couldn't fi d one in ML or FM. I have a good bit of metal and coal stored in the train car in FM, also at the forhe there. I have all I need to make arrow points but no hammer. I found a hammer and lots of other things in DP...and holy crap is it a hassle to have to unpack and repack the travois in certain places that don't allow its navigation! coal mine 3 was a REAL vexation. presently, the travois is at about 20%. no way I can make it back to the MLO. so I'm just going to take the hammer, a bit of coal, as much food as I can carry reasonably fast, leaving a couple of deer hides and gut to cure to repair the travois as I head back to my ML base, then pick up the FM metal and coal, take it to the forge and make points. I also plan "hack" the lvl 5 fire starting by starting 5 fires with a single stick. so these two endeavors should kill enough time to cure the deer skins so when I get back to CH I can repair the travois to bring back a bunch of cool stuff. just like in real life, if we were in that situation we would have to plan things out in order to make things go in an orderly fashion, to save time and energy, resources. so we need to do this virtually as well in this game...even when we shut it down. some things have to be plotted out in order to know what to do when we re-enter. does anyone else do this? do you plan it out in your head, write it down on paper or make a note in the game? I plan in my head. despite my bad memory, I'm still able to remember where I put things, like storing a hide in a cave or cabin to cure. I never make notes in game.

The sneakers I would count as vegan. The fleece mittens may or may not be vegan. A lot of fleece is actually polyester. Technically granola bars with honey are not vegan, though it is debatable. There’s lots of ways to make vegan granola without honey. Great content! Would love to see part 2

A few comments: Please expand on why humans have developed pareidolia; how it's useful in identifying threats. Next, is it really a vegan thing to craft arrows from feathers. I can agree it's not IF you harvest feathers directly from living or hunted birds, but feathers are molted to replace damaged ones. Not animal harm. Leather goods pre-made in the game are already prepared. No one is harming animals to replace them since there is no more commerce. There are so many ways to interpret this.
@Zaknafein

So pareidolia has to do with Error Management Theory. It basically means its less costly in a survival sense to make a perceptual mistake as long as you sometimes are correct. If you THINK you saw a snake, but its a stick - if you get scared, nothing happened. Oh well, you look a bit silly, but no harm done. If you see an actual snake and get scared, you escape the situation and is unharmed. So look at the reverse - you see a snake and think "its probably a stick" and then whoops - you get bitten and die. So our brain makes things familiar to us for easier recognition, and that also leads to errors or illusions, but these errors are worth it in the long run for survival.
