I sorta wish I could stay in that ranger tower or fishing shack, you know? Settle down. Surviving in the wild, without any shelter, seems near impossible. The idea, I think, is to keep you moving from POI to POI.
That’s the thing… you can’t really hole up anywhere because you will deplete the meager supplies you find in every location! Or at least, that’s been my experience. I’m constantly teetering between chomping at the bit for the pace to pick up and marveling at its immersive qualities. That’s my biggest question: what, exactly, drives you to go anywhere? When you find a place to sleep the only reason to move on is running out of supplies, I suppose.

It is pretty dire at times, but then I found a shack full of stuff (including a rifle!) so I’m wondering if I can just hole up in there and see how long I can survive. I’m vacillating between what you’re feeling and my admiration for their dedication to simulating every weary step. I’m sure there will be features added to make the point-to-point game play more compelling, but the core issue is the static map layout and the ho-hum art direction of that environment, which would take a complete re-do to fix.
The only way to recover from “tired” is to find a bed. That’s just you sitting there holding the W key as the generic environment around you slowly crawls by because your run key has been disabled because you are tired. And then if you get “tired”, it could take a full 20 minutes. It takes a good 10 minutes to walk down a corridor from one house to another. These roads are usually flanked by “too steep” geometry, forcing you to stay on the road.Īnd the final problem is it takes forever to get anywhere. There is very little “off road” game play. Basically, corridors between points of interest. It’s just a bunch of realllllly long roads between a house or two. The environment is also extremely boring and uninspired. The biggest problem with it is that the environment is static, so it’s always the same every time you restart. I found it extremely boring, and this is coming from a guy who generally loves “walking simulators” like Proteus, Eidolon, etc. Posts that violate any of these rules will be removed without warning.ĭon’t want to see any memes at all?
