Nice, hav beans for the effort, but i always wondered, are there any other uses for books? Can you use them to craft something?

 

I always end up ignoring them completely because they take up way too many backpack slots. :(

I am petitioning to Rocket to make them useful! See my signature below!

[Berezombie 13]

whoa great job!

[Mao Zedong 48]

That's a lot of books... i feel like the time they spent adding those... could have gone to something much more useful -_-;

WOW, nice work, for me its gettin into a reading simulater. just hunger und thurst stopps me from reading

 

all those nice books , and i bought it for just 23 bugs. and i got a PC-game extra to the package :)

 

if you would buy those books in RL you would end up spending way more than 23 bugs

Its cool that some books have blood on them

 

Especially freaky is the Back Cover of "Youth"

Must be good for lighting fires. Bible paper, being thin, is excellent for making roll-ups with too.

[St. Jimmy 1631]

Next thing is ho many pages each of those books have?

Bible (the black new testament) has 764 pages.

 

Does some book have over 1300 pages? Because I remember giving up scrolling through and it maybe was The new testament (the pink one).

[gingatsu 67]

Can anyone tell me how to read those books? coz I tried it in many ways but somehow wasn't able to read any book at all...

Put the book in your hotbar -> tab the number that you put it -> book is now open but you probably don't see next and previous page buttons -> hit page up or down buttons and now you can click those

 -> have fun.

 

If those previous and next page buttons disappear hit page up or down button again. Some other buttons might do that also but I use those.

yeah that is pretty awesome

[spartanxapathy 203]

Everytime I find "The Art of War" or "On the Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection", something terrible happens and I die shortly afterwards. Oh, sweet irony.

What a complete and absolute waste of time and resources.

Artamène ou le Grand Cyrus - Over two MILLION words!

[marsmars 155]

btw anyone know if more books will be added in patches?

[deepfried 95]

Um... you know books do have a use.... you could read them.

[CrocoDan 19]

What a complete and absolute waste of time and resources.

I disagree, I think the books are a nice touch to the game. It probably didn't require that much time to add them, mostly they had to copy and paste the texts its not like they wrote the books

[Odahviing 125]

wait...you can actually read those books?

[ZedZombie 6]

bumping for people who missed this the first time

[Bororm 1156]

To read the books, put them into your hands/use them on the quickbar.

 

While I wouldn't object to being able to burn them, I don't feel they need a "purpose" like some people seem to.  Not every item needs to be "useful" and adding novelty items to the game enhances it.
