I am really enjoying playing The Long Dark. I think there are quite a lot of survival elements that could be added to the game:- Bow drill - It's very hard to get this to work in ideal conditions!
- Charcloth - Charcloth really aids firelighting in the wilderness. It's made by charing cloth in a tin.
- Pine resin - Natural accelerant and also a glue.
- Sphagnum moss - A natural wound dressing.
- Horseshoe mushrooms to carry embers
- Moss on the north side of trees to aid navigation
- Figure "4" deadfall trap (baited with rosehip).
- Pine tea
- Sharpening stones
It would be nice to see additional wildlife.Beavers - Excellent for fur and oil.
Squirrels

You have whetstones...but when they run out, what about natural ones?
Also flint arrow heads, fixed to arrow shafts with the aforementioned pine pitch glue
Using fire rather than workbenchs is a more appropriate crafting location for arrows. Primitive arrows were made by the fire. The flights were also glued to the arrowshaft.
