IAmCrystalClear Posted July 5, 2020 Posted July 5, 2020 Please, please, PLEASE can we remove the weird metamorphing glasses, and just use a selection of other glasses instead? Sure, it's a little bloaty, but the ability to serve cocktails in a cocktail glass, whiskey in a rocks glass, and shots in shot glasses would really make the server a little cleaner ICly.
KingOfThePing Posted July 5, 2020 Posted July 5, 2020 I think something like that was being worked on by @wowzewow some time ago
DronzTheWolf Posted July 6, 2020 Posted July 6, 2020 I am heavily against this because it means the more unique drinks will just be another colored swill in the rectangular glass.
Roostercat Posted July 6, 2020 Posted July 6, 2020 Lessening the wide variety of drinks we have is a step back, in my opinion. It was never something I thought about too hard and making all the drinks look like different color liquids in generic glasses is sort of lame. Though the addition of shot glasses would be nice.
StationCrab Posted July 6, 2020 Posted July 6, 2020 Why not just add more glass types, and let the bartender decide if he wants to keep the metamorphing kind, or just serve things in generic glasses. I'd hate to lose the unique looking beverages.
Codename: Bear Posted July 6, 2020 Posted July 6, 2020 I'm against this. The meta-morphing glass is a good way to visually indicate the drink being served and is not something that should or needs to be taken seriously. Adding more things is unnecessary. Removing it is unnecessary. I like it, it adds variety and "flavor" to getting a drink. I can see what drink is being presented and that is nice.
Butterrobber202 Posted July 6, 2020 Posted July 6, 2020 the icons look good, I see no reason not to use them. Very against this.
Carver Posted July 7, 2020 Posted July 7, 2020 I've seen this done elsewhere, it kills a lot of the fun and flavour of bartender when every drink is just 'colour in glass' instead of the wonderfully unique icons that make you often take a closer look. The real shine of learning and playing bartender are those moments, especially when you get some of the rarer reagents. In short, no. I'd never feel inclined to play bartender again.
UnknownMurder Posted July 7, 2020 Posted July 7, 2020 This is an unpopular opinion. I agree with @IAmCrystalClear for some of the drinks we have. Some of the meta-morphing glasses we have should stay and some should go.
Winter404 Posted July 12, 2020 Posted July 12, 2020 I would kill for the different glass variety a server like Bay has, I love them. However, I'd also very much rather we keep the metamorphing glasses. I don't see why we need to remove them if we could add new glasses for the people who like them, and keep the current glasses too for people who like what we already have.
DronzTheWolf Posted July 13, 2020 Posted July 13, 2020 We could do both by keeping the normal glasses we have now as 'holo-glasses' that project a hologram appropriate to the drink. Then you can have both boring swill in a glass and the normal, better glasses that look unique.
KingOfThePing Posted July 14, 2020 Posted July 14, 2020 I like what Winter and Dronz say. A compromise would be the best thing here. The holo glasses also sound like a plausible solution and adding "normal" glasses of different variety also sound great.
IAmCrystalClear Posted July 14, 2020 Author Posted July 14, 2020 Mix and match would be nice. It just adds variety to have different size glasses for different drinks. Down with people demanding entire 30u cups of whiskey!
Carver Posted July 15, 2020 Posted July 15, 2020 30u's not even bad. Going by the comparative portion sizes, that's about the amount I'd drink during a night.
