I'll suspend my disbelief for the crazy powers, the extra three years of school, and the fact that society still broadly functions somehow, but ain't no way my boy Brock Sandwood goes from multi-year prom king to friendless loser after discovering his power is basically just infinite money... At the very least there's got to be some gold diggers smart enough to hang around, milk to cheese instantly? He would be set for life.

Seriously, just reverse the ability or something, being able to turn cheese back into milk, that's virtually useless outside of a few very specific scenarios.

But what KIND of cheese? :sneaky:

Fairly sure he's good even if he can only produce mild chedder, any real cheese should be highly profitable, though I suppose if we're talking some sort of dubious "cheese" euphemism maybe things are different :ROFLMAO:

And this is where I'll direct you to the time that has gone by since the initial outbreak and the ability that Lake has. Regulations and laws are in place to prevent profiteering from abilities. Have to protect the "to big to fail" corps after all.

That isn't directly mentioned in the game but, it's hinted at.

First, you still have to buy the milk. Second, someone from the dairy industry would have him assassinated if he tried to make a significant profit, which would cut into theirs.

You've heard about the cheese vaults, right?

Sure, if he wants to try cornering the market and becoming a multi-billionaire from it, maybe he'll run into issues. But something more reasonable, say he works one week/quarter, takes delivery of only few milk tankers, converts that to cheese and sells it, he produces maybe 100-200 tonnes/year (which would be well under 0.005% of US yearly consumption), and takes home a $200k+ yearly salary for a month's work.

Who says he has the ability to convert that much milk to cheese? Maybe it's limited to like a single block per day. Ain't nobody making $200K/year with that output.

A part of me wants to bring this to a couple other games with people that have milk super powers ... HP probably wouldn't be happy with that either ;)

Lol, I could see Origin Story having a sidegirl with huge tits that can fire her milk cannons at will... I'd be down for that, but I'm not sure I'm down for the mental image of MC absorbing that power. :sick:

the game has so much potential for this stuff, just imagine the possibilities :ROFLMAO: Once you get a couple of the OP powers like the sexual fantasy one the sky is the limit
