I see how much it may be dependant by visuals of the fog but its high risk. 3 +\\Second, it's efectivly enforcing sneaking meachnics. Don't you think that forcing player to reduce the movemnt speed at effectivley entire map is could be radically affecting game pacing? 4 +\\However, i like the idea of "I am traveling thourgh fog, and hapens to stumble upon pray that is suprised as much as I am" 5 +\\I think problem lies in the fact that you give double advantage to mobs; 6 +1 - player can't see them 7 +2 - they will hear player before they can be seen. - Date

There are few problem that we must adress. 2 +\\First problem being that current system realys too much on audio. I see and i like how it plays and what is that role. Unfortunetly, if we decided to go with it we are making few assumptions. Biggest assumption is that peaople will actualy be listening to our game. Why? Big thing about survival game is that player set's their progression pace how they pleas. Many player don't like to rush them and sweat only when they decied to. That means when they are grinding resources, or just exploring they usually listening to something, podcast music or just yt. Next assumption is that they are using a good headphones, or eaven headphones. What i mean by that audio can't be a main driver of player actions. You may use it to help player but not force them to relay on it. 3 +\\Second, i like the enviromental conditions based on elevation and water distance. However, i feel like you scratched surface with those hint's. I see how event director could be introdeced. Some events that can be triggerd automaticly or if conditions are met, for examples: 4 +\\- Player leaves a dead body of animal: they wait and scavengers appear. 5 +- PC is bleeding for a longer time? Predator that smeels blood apprears 6 +- player travesers world and if time and weather are correct they may hear a noises of fight and see birds flying away form there. If they go there they see a predator and prey fighting. (Here i don't condratic myself because it is optional and is visual component is added). 7 +\\Let me know if i expilained my point here well. 8 +\\Overall great job! Good start with great potential with only few quircks. 9 +\\Review the document apply my remarks as well as preapare raw draft of this event director. Once both are ready, let me know! - Date
