If I had to pick one thing it would be the audio. Someone really did an amazing job here. I've noticed so much attention to detail in the audio. For example, if you're carrying lots of water you can hear it splashing around. The sounds really make the game for me.

Thumbs up to Glenn Jamison and Dave Chan since we were told their names.

The sound is amazing. The change in breath, the atmospheric sounds (wind, creaking wood and ice, fire). Animal/crow calls (the wolf howls are EERIE), the different weather sounds for different levels of storm. It's all great.

Aural cues are something I comment on in other games and it's usually a comment about how they're lacking. Here they're pretty much perfect.

Another thumbs up to whomever made sure we had a female sound set on sandbox mode. As a female player it really helps for immersion. I know it's not "me", but it helps give me that tiny bit of extra investment in keeping my girl alive.
