For this test I did not fill the bowls to the top, but filled them to the point at which one would reasonably expect to fill them (could carry without getting one's fingers into any liquid, and would not slosh the contents onto the floor). The largest one held 500 ml, or two metric cups. The shallowest one held 200 ml, which is less than a metric cup. I could not find any information online about the fluid capacity of single-serve bowls in New Zealand so, for science!, I grabbed a couple of sizes of soup bowls out of my cupboard. One metric cup apparently can hold 16.6667 tablespoons, just over 2 sticks of butter. Ĭan you even fit 10 sticks of melted butter into a typical soup bowl?Īs I don't understand sticks of butter or fluid ounces, I looked up metric cups and tablespoons. I think one of the soup recipes use something like 10 sticks of butter. Given all of that I think it would be pretty interesting to hear how they decide which foods to include, how they adapt the recipies to fit the crafting system and how they decide to balance realism with game said:I'm not a dev but I do cook a lot and I can tell you a lot of them are real foods, but the recipies have been tweaked to fit game mechanics.
But it would be pretty annoying if you had to start off buying cheese pizza and adding toppings and only gained the ability to make it yourself later on. A level 75 chef can make a cheese pizza from scratch - making and shaping their own dough and making the tomato sauce, but they have to be level 125 to put toppings on it, which is the easiest part of the whole process. The way recipies link up to crafting levels is pretty amusing sometimes too. A realistic recipe would use something like 40 chickpeas, 40 seame seeds (both would actually be measured by weight or volume), 1/2 a lemon and about 1/8 of a head of garlic (1-2 cloves), plus vegetable oil, but that's impossible in-game becaue you can't use less than 1 of an ingredient and it would make it much more expensive to craft. (I really wouldn't want to taste test that.)Įven going by the pictures (6 chickpeas, about 20 sesame seeds, 1 lemon and 1 head of garlic) isn't much of an improvement.
But the GW2 version is made with 1 chickpea, 1 sesame seed, a whole lemon and a whole head of garlic, which in real life would itty, lemony garlic paste. I'm not a dev but I do cook a lot and I can tell you a lot of them are real foods, but the recipies have been tweaked to fit game mechanics.įor example hummus really is made from chickpeas, sesame seeds, lemon and garlic, although it usually includes oil as well.
