Newby Question (not the typical)
I’m new to the game, been playing for like 3 days. I’m trying to figure out the game and the point of it. I don’t mean “why am I hunting” but more “what is the point of the abundance of elk and moose when I can’t effectively hunt them with the free equipment” and “why am I struggling to find deer so early on” type of question. Is the goal to build skills and proficiencies early on to move quietly, quickly, and place well placed shots? Based on the progressions, is the goal to be a stealthy, accurate and proficient bow hunter for smaller game? I’ve been playing one map, so do other maps increase the difficulty to hunt bigger game that are harder to find?
This isn’t meant to be critical of the game, as I anticipate “well you don’t have to play if you don’t get it” responses. It’s an enjoyable game and well done in a realistic way. My purpose in asking this is to try to get a better idea of how I should be looking at improving.
