Moon Sugar - a plea for mercy!

Moon sugar is being removed as a provisioning ingredient in update 1.6

It has been replaced with beets.

I know this one has mentioned this in other threads here and there but this one suspects there will be many people of all races who did not see those posts or have not yet played on the PTS.

We face the prospect of thousands of crying, shivering, broken hearted Khajiit lining the streets of our towns and cities. Not to mention those outside of our own kind who also appreciate the sugar.

Our farming industry is based upon the production of sugar, it fuels our trade and lightens our hearts and minds.

So this one is really hoping you listen and do not take away our sugar. This is a big big thing for us. We have little enough in this world. Our own homeland is far away, we are branded thieves and beggars and scam merchants at every turn and we do not yet have saddles that do not pinch the tail.

Could you be happy with only beets in your backpack? Beets I ask you! Incidentally they are also taking away the fishy sticks so we can no longer celebrate Fishmas. A poor Fishmas it will be without any sugar or fishy sticks. Why are they picking on us poor Khajiit so very much?

So please my fellow Khajiit, and everyone else who likes a little sugar from time to time, use this thread to yowl loudly so that the gods of Tamriel listen to us.

Don't take away our sugar. Pretty please.

    I already miss moon sugar, I was so happy when I pulled the first bit from a barrel and made moon sugar biscuits! Acai berries..... Seaweed replacing snowberries... no more wild honey.. :( Those were little bitty details that meant a lot to me, they were part of the elder scrolls world I knew. Losing those details for trendy real life food? My kitties don't care about antioxidants and superfoods. Very sad kitty here.

    Please! At least give us back our sweet sweet sugar :)
    May all beings have happiness
    May they be free from suffering
    May they find the joy that has never known suffering
    May they be free from attachment and hatred

    Moon Sugar Biscuits was one of the first recipes my character picked up. As said above, it's part of the ES world that I know, and love dearly. Why would anyone take a Khajiit staple away? It wont be the same without it. Especially replacing it with beets.

    Never made sense from a cooking stand point especially with how common it was all over the place. But not a ounce of skooma to be bought? That's weak.

    Really hope they make it like an alchemy ingredient. As for the real problem. Give us skooma! I don't care if it just a potion I find laying around some persons house or bought from the criminal market. I just want it in game.

    Also alcohol needs to get us drunk.

    Imagine the look from a Khajit opening his backpack after 1.6 hits, to find his precious stockpile of moon sugar replaced with... beets! It's as if a kid comes home with a bag of Halloween loot and discovers that someone has taken the sweets and replaced them with potatoes.

    Provisioning needed some change, sure, but did it have to become boring?

    Read a few more threads and stop panicking. ZO$ said in another thread that they have other plans for moon sugar. No specifics given, but they acknowledged the lore of moon sugar in Elder Scrolls. It will be in the game.

    Other plans does not get this one through until September or next year or whenever they bring it back.

    They have a habit of pushing other plans into the far distant future.

    You don't think they would sell it in the crown store do you? Like as the name of their xp potions or something?

    No more moonsugar? I read that with highly mixed emotions ...

    I thought it was poorly done to make it a food instead of an entheogen in the first place. I'd like to see some sort of sophisiticated thing where moonsugar offers benefits IF you have a point in some khajiit-culture-specific skill (maybe after having read a motif book)? Then a dramatic downward bump on stats or speed in battle if someone's been using skooma.

    This makes no sense. They add the Justice System to create even more immersion yet they remove Moon Sugar which is very much apart of the series and another element of immersion.
