    Some ideas regarding currency as food and cannibalism

    It would be neat for role playing purposes, but I imagine it could be too easy if it isn't given any serious downsides.There was actually a post about corpse decay on reddit that got me thinking about cannibalism in the first place, and I thought that would help make it kind of challenging. With corpse decay, scavenging on those who are already dead wouldn't be a reliable tactic and the player would be forced to hunt living players/animals, ghost bandits (play as a semi-pacifist and eat their kills lol), or actually be a bandit. Upsides Abundance of foodLower or maybe no chance of getting sick from eating raw meatAmount of food in a human steak could be higher than canned goods and maybe even animal cutsDownsides Negative health status (maybe slower health regen or lower health/blood levels attributed to disease or lack of nutrients)Sickness/vomiting when eating anything other than flesh (animal or human)Sickness/vomiting after first eating human flesh. If human flesh is consumed a second time, you cannot go back to processed foods, fruits, and vegetables
