Likewise, if I'm totally messing up and failing a lot and having to rest a lot, shouldn't I be penalized by having more dreams about my secret crush and having goblins attack the druid's grove or druids kicking tieflings out, etc.? Shouldn't it stress me out MORE if I take my time and really just chill and vibe and sit on benches and watch the world pass me by? If I know goblins are coming in 3 days if I don't kill the gobbo leaders, I will set killing those leaders as a priority over visiting the hag or trying to get to the creche or whatever. Likewise, if I know that the more I long rest the more that brain bug is going to start taking me over, as I originally thought in the original playthrough, then I'm going to do just like I did in the original playthrough. I'm going to push my characters hard to find that healer. Excitement! Danger!
I like how it is now that the dreams are the result of a character's choice to use the tadpole's power and are not just a penalty for resting.
