I can definitely say that the visual appeal of the game is fantastic; however, I am completely bumfuzzled with a few changes and some old issues that remain.
First, why in world would you remove glass jars and tin cans from the game? I understand you want people to use the new dew collector, but having the jars and cans add to the realism of the game. In my opinion, this change is definitely for the worse.
Second, I'm not sure if it's just me, but after firing one arrow from a bow, the arrow no longer aligns with the crosshairs. The arrow points slightly to the left of the crosshairs. After switching to another weapon and then back to the bow, the arrow alignment is correct...well, until I fire an arrow...lol!
Third, I was really hoping that the "it takes 5 pieces of meat to make one" thing would be changed. For the sake of immersion, one piece of meat should make one piece of cooked meat. If the developers feel that too much meat can be gathered from one animal corpse, simply lower the harvest amount.
Finally, for goodness sake, PLEASE make a toggle to turn off screamers!! As a single player who love to glean every available resource from the places I loot, having a screamer pop up every couple of minutes gets old real quick! Disabling the screamers would be a dream come true!
