i don't like that game cos apparently your character takes 5 hours to gather 2 small blocks of wood and a piece of string.

In a game thats supposed to be realistic, you have a hatchet and your're in a forest no less, you'd take HOURS to get a single block of wood? In a automated "search" action of course, you dont actually chop trees and such in realtime.

It's a great game, quite unforgiving. It makes you happy to loot dirty rags from someone's home so you can finally patch your winter jacket and stop freezing to death every 20 meters.

And it's interesting that post-apocaliptic Canada looks pretty much like 2015 Canada :D I always imagined the northern provinces were like that.

Most of Canada is classifiable as wasteland.

I think it needs more asphalt and cement.

Well, I hear the tundra is fast approaching "farmable."
