This huge, open-world game is both immersive & de-stressing for me. Putting on earphones. Turning the lights off. The experience is amazing and often lasts for hours.
Having more options available for foraging would only make the experience more intriguing! Teas, Garlic, Berries, Mushrooms, Nuts - all great things to forage & cook in the warm comfort of the Forestry Lookout tower while watching a raving blizzard outside. Also, more, more, more sounds!
