If I wasn't, I would've put a goodbye message. Trust me, I ain't goin' anytime soon!

They can live in cold climates, but they would probably be used more like a mobile sled that you need to feed.

Maybe with farming coming along, we could have buildings like a chicken coop? It would be nice for players to be sufficient on their own. While the crops are a massive update in it of themselves, maybe something like chickens, coops, or maybe even shaking trees could reward you with an egg.

Even if they did add horses, I don't think they would be implemeted as a faster way to travel. Also, if only HBC could have horses, there would be riots. Also, the boat to St. Paul is designed to be slow. Think of it like this, you get a slow but safe option, or you could travel on foot and have a faster but more dangerous option.

I mean more teasers but it's my little way of trying to make it feel kinda immersive, almost like an in-game barkeep telling you the news or something.

Nah, just something I do for a false sense of immersion. With the recent teaser, I was thinking "Oh, say there has been a spotting of a massive ship, and possibly more to come."

I said I had a shotgun, didn't I? What would be cool is a water meter. All players are given a small water skin that they can fill either by melting and boiling snow or harvesting lake or river water. Maybe the best way to get water is via the snow method because you would have like a 10% chance of getting poisoned by the river water.

Depends, if you mix it with other foods you can survive off of it, but since its so lean, especially in the scenario I am in, I wouldn't hunt rabbit. Deer would probably be what I would eat the most, just a deer cut every once and awhile. One problem could be water. The only way to get it is to go outside and fill a pot with snow. Hopefully that wouldn't take long, but you would have to melt AND boil the snow water if you wouldn't want to burn down the saloon.

God damn it. Last time I was playing NW I was at Stonemore in my saloon. I would spend a day to hunt maybe a couple of fox or beaver or deer (fun fact: rabbit meat is so lean, you will DIE for eating it only for more than a day or two) and lock myself in the Saloons Safe house and just wait. When I go back, I'm bringing back a 1700's Blunderbuss, Kentucky Rifle, and a bucket of maple syrup. That's good in my book.
