Just tested this out, WOW I wish this game had native controller support, it's so smooth and really nice to sit back and play!

This is why I believe they have since strayed from the original intention and are adding more crops to the game for player enjoyment and variety. There are so many crops this new change in plan could bring to the table!

I know originally the developers intended the game to have solely European/Old World crops, but (so I've heard) this has changed, so if we already have Cassava (native to South America) and Sunflowers, I don't see why Corn, Squash, Avocado, Beans, Cacao Trees (Cocoa), Tomatoes, Peanuts, Peppers, Tobacco or Potatoes couldn't be added in the game, since it's set in a sort of post-history. Even if it's a European setting a post-history would be well long after we brought new world crops over and they would still be found growing in the former Europe. I'm not entirely familiar of the lore so please correct me if I'm wrong! I've only had the game for a week or so. A non New World addition could be Coffee! Coffee is native to Ethiopia and could commonly be found growing in parts of Europe. Coffee beans could be combined with water and give the drinker a caffeine buff. These don't all need to be added but these are just some really cool crop ideas that I think would fit if it's set in a post-civilization Europe long after human cultivation of them. Tobacco, while not a food crop, could be used for medicinal purposes, as it can be used as an antiseptic, sort of like Flax has use as a utilitarian crop. Alternatively, while unhealthy, tobacco could also be smoked to provide a temporary buff of some kind. I'm not promoting drugs at all but tobacco was a popular historical use. Cocoa could be used to make chocolate, chocolate cake, chocolate pies, hot cocoa, and so much more! Let me know of your thoughts! I would love to see these crops in the game. The amount of crops is already incredible and the addition of some of these would make the game even more unbelievable!

Corn would be an amazing crop addition! It could be a fall crop as corn is typically harvested in the fall. There could be so many uses for it like cornbread, cornmeal, even Ethanol in the far late game!

I think it would be neat to have a mechanical push lawnmower that can be created later in the game. It could cut grass and flowers, and could be adjusted to either completely destroy them or trim them. Going along with this idea, a traditional plow would be cool to hoe a field much quicker. Just quality of life things that I think would be neat additions to the game!
