I made a bit of progress in The Long Dark. I've started with the story mode for now, but it seems a bit on rails, so I think I will start a proper survival game sooner rather than later. I will trudge along in the story a bit longer, just to experiment and explore the mechanics a bit more, after which I will jump over to the real game.
A couple of extremely close calls so far, with my condition getting down to just a sliver of red, but I managed to pull out of it both times, so I have yet to die. I am really liking the quiet aspects of the game, and it seems fairly realistic so far.
Any non-spoilery beginner hints are welcome, btw.
I left off here last night:
Good to have some shelter!
