I don't really understand what role alcohol would serve in the game as it stands.

Prevent cabin fever?

...but each rabbit has four feet...  

But are they all lucky ones? 😉

Reminds me of those awful WoW quests like "Get me 20 boar ears." You go out, spot a boar and you can see it HAS ears. Two of them! But after the kill there is nothing to loot. Bummer...

Ski goggles and snow masks made out of birchbark, which protect against a new affliction "Snow Blindness".

I would like to see that, but I guess adding a new affliction is quite an effort. Although snow blindness is really an issue in such an environment.

Lucky rabbits foot- can be crafted and makes you luckier at starting fires, catching fish, etc. Only while wearing it.

That sounds fun - as an extreme rare find on rabbits + a really long cure time, perhaps only if killed by stone or crafted with an extreme low success rate + another rare ingredient.

But I don't see it coming and I can understand that...

Not sure if tis was already asked for...

Would be helpful when the fog rolled in or during blizzards.

There should be a few to be found in huts and blinds or on The Frozen Ones. Then again - who is still using a compass now that you have GPS capable smart phones.

While the kill was nothing special, the sight after the kill was quite weired:

Guess I was lucky - so far I had an aurora the first night at every location except PV Radio Tower which took 4 nights.

Usually I am hunting/fishing/looting during the days, saving the non-smelly food for travels. There is a fishing hut near the hut in TM as well as some deer closeby.

Of course, there is that bear - I shot a deer and harvested it and when I closed the harvesting screen first thing I noticed were fresh bear tracks right beside the dead deer. Turned around and there he was, must have been walking by me while I was harvesting. Being well fed and not encumbered I was able to run back to the hut. I could hear him behind me but I did not looked back to check the distance...

- The unforgiveness (I don't like "casual gamer adjusted" games - preferred Everquest rather than WOW )

- The lack of other people (outliving my social anxiety 😉 )

Started playing a few months ago. Switching between Survival and Challenges, did the Story inbetween.

For Survival I set my own goals (collect x rifles, survive 100 days without killing an animal, get all skills to 5 etc). Never establish the same home base(s) as in the game before.

So far I'm playing on Voyageur, going to Stalker soon.
