Since we are back at this let me reitterate why hygiene motive sucks.
1: Hygiene doesnt punish you in mechanics.
YOU JUST SMELL! With hunger you lose max hp and thrist stamina is worst.
2: Fixing it doesn't benefit you.
Eating can give health buffs, regen buffs and stamina buffs. So can drinking!
Cleaning yourself? NOPE!
3: You have to take off your clothes in a bathroom to shower.
OH NO I AM EXPOSED! And someone ran in and now the situation is awkward....
4: You can't instantly drop to 0 hunger and 0 thrist.
Well unless something "specific happens" it will go down gradualy and faster the more you do.
Where as hygiene can drop to 0 if you slip and fall into a puddle. Or someone spray you with oil. There are so much ways for you to get that hygiene to drop to 0 it is just frustrating.
5: Flavor text and stink lines are just uber annoying.
Nothing awful I can ignore it, but I do notice it's just annoying.
And that's why I am fine with removing it. Since it has no value... atleast in the olden days you could get sick of it being low.
