The icon is indeed a bedroll. But it is not required. I just tried it out

I wonder who would dislike that change? Which settings in custom mode can I use to make it significantly easier to complete the feats than in pilgrim mode? I see feats as a long time reward for playing the game. It's nothing that can be done in a couple of houres - even with the easiest custom settings, right? So why not spending this time in a gamemode you like? A few weeks ago I wanted to start a new game (interlooper with rifle) and saw that I already achieved 80% of "Efficient Machine". So instead of playing the custom game I wanted - I felt forced to play a "normal" game. I spent the most time sleeping in order to get this feat. Is it fun? I don't think so ... Would it have been easier in interlooper custom settings? I don't think so ... If the next update contains more feats I will consider of skipping them. I really don't wanna be forced to spent much more time in non-custom games anymore. Not because I dislike them, but because custom is just more fun.

Maybe you just forgot to pick up the bedroll after your restful sleep? Happend to me once xD Otherwise it is possible for items to drop out of your inventory in an attack. Not sure if they take damage or if there is a restriction on which items can drop at all. But you could check the the location of the attack - maybe your bedroll dropped there ... Btw are you sure you was not able to sleep in the snow shelter? I thought it would be possible to rest in there even without a bedroll (via the radial menu).

That's seriously awesome!

If you own a NVIDIA graphics card you can limit the FPS in the nvidia control panel. Move to 3D-Settings; add TLD to the list of programs and change the max. FPS setting for TLD (in your case) to 60.

Earlier this year I found cloth in a visor. Compared to the amount of visors I checked and the fact that cloth is not very "expensive", I don't think it is worth to check them. But I can't stop doing so

Fluffy returns? 😱 Sounds great!

Had similar observations with cans on tables and floating road-textures. The ground seems to be generally buggy at the moment. Had a wolf who was "running away" but he was so slow that I was able to overtake him crouching! Looked like he was stuck in the snow. Similar with the bear. He was moving up and down all the time as if the ground wouldn't be plane. And here is a wolf carcass sunken in the snow (never saw that before):

In my opinion TLD is already "finished" for some time now (apart from the story mode). There are other games that are supposed to be "done" but still far from the quality of TLD. Of course I would prefer not have to wait that long for new content, but I'm fine with the current "it will be ready when it is ready" - policy. I prefer a good game to one "not-so-good" that is shorter in development. And to me Hinterland had good reason to delay a release. Sometimes things goes wrong, change or new opportunites arise and the worst thing they could have done is just stick to the old plan no matter what. I see a massive improvement of Episode 3 compared to Episode 1 (non redux) and I would suggest that now that certain workflows could have been established, episode 4 & 5 won't be *that* far away. I can't say if a movie is the best idea but it seems to be only a part of their strategy. So, I'm looking forward to it.

Btw, did you notice that the credits of episode 3 have changed compared to episode 1 & 2? It's now called Season 1: Wintermute Ep. 3 instead of just Ep. 3 ...

I found an interesting interview with and Raphael van Lierop on gamesindustry.biz about The Long Dark 2, films and other cool stuff. So I just put the link in here and hope not having opened pandora's box https://www.gamesindustry.biz/articles/2019-10-31-hinterlands-future-plans-include-movies-publishing-and-the-long-dark-2

That's the basic principle of life, right? I mean we're all dead man. There is no such thing like eternal life. Even your sandbox character is dying sometime. That's for sure! The only difference with Dimitri is that his remaining time seems to be known. Let him die only because of that feels wrong. We are all "wasting" rescources in order to "delaying the inevitable". We all eat food and drink water even though it's absolutly sure we die. And we should continue with that
