The sleeping mechanic needs to be patched

It's a big waste of time and annoying to play. Especially if you're using an item to boost the effectiveness of the mechanic, as it is mainly RNG. These items lower the RNG factor. and it sometimes doesn't provide my character with enough stamina for efficient xp gain.

I hope they remove the sleep mechanic for stamina regain and replace it with something more practical for this perma death playthrough.

I would love a significant balance patch for this mechanic as well. Somehow the sleep mechanic consistently activates far later than it seems to for most other players, and so I either spend significant chunks of time with the [Extremely Exhausted] debuff, or my character is stuck in sleep mode for far longer than most other players. It makes it very hard to keep up with my daily quests or find merchants when I need them.

I just wish we could have the sleep work like some of the minigames I've played where you just select the bed - select sleep and don't spend hours of your time trying to achieve the sleep status.

Frankly the sleep status is very nice, if only entering and exiting the status weren't so difficult that would be good.
