Slavery Is Useless
Slavery in RimWorld is literally garbage. I remember trying it when it came out, thinking it was inferior to normal recruiting in every way, and then not touching it for a while. I recently tried it again and, wow, it is straight ass. The guy just kept having mental breaks over and over and over. Not to mention, he took up real space and food, even with a shitty shack and work schedule 24 hours a day.
Why would you use this feature? For “RP” or mood bonuses? Not worth it when this guy is catatonic 24 hours a day. I don’t want to RP having slaves! I just want a useful worker. The worst part is the illogical nature of it - really, the warden just lets him do that? He doesn’t beat him back into reality?
Let’s not drop the snarky Reddit comments like “wow, slavery is bad?! Who would have thought?!” This has nothing to do with morality or actual IRL slavery. I’m simply saying this mechanic in this video game is not very well executed and I think it needs to be fixed. Does anyone know if there are mods to for this?
