Your crawling through a dungeon, and you run up on some baddies. Suddenly you get hungry, so instead of doing what you came to do you sit down for a cup of tea and crackers... Because you of course don't want to bother with the stat penalties.
The fact is it just ends up being a random debuff and tedious.
Also, I don't care how sleepy I am, my ass is wide awake when I start getting shot at...
Things like that, bother me in video games. Serious thought and work is required before I can insider this legitimate.
Such as - no eating raw food (can't just kill a rat and gobble it up)
Effects don't occurs mid battle, though can be cumulative once the adrenaline wears down.
Realistic cycles and requirements. And also realistic ways to handle your needs out in the field.
This was the killer for me in new Vegas. Actually having to eat it. The salmon I just cooked isn't a pill. I don't just pop it down. Having to find the TIME is just as important. So that way, no, I'm not gana just pop my yummy pills and restore my hunger gauge mid fight, or ill even ignore it if I'm about to do something for awhile.
Edit
Oh yeah. Maybe eating that bear meat I used poison to kill... Wasn't... Such... *thud*
