@Falzonn I agree. However, I think that's what some people like. Even I get into the mood to dust off my copy every once in a while, have fun for a few hours, then it sits untouched another month, and then a new one's out. I think people just want some mindless fun sometimes :)
@snowSHO They could really use the coast idea in an awesome way. It would probably be like the ocean in "The Road", completely ruined. It could really help create even more of an atmosphere.
Around 8:18, that corpse had been shot. You can tell because there are two specific blood streams. Since he was still bleeding, he was still in the process of dying, he was unconcious and bleeding out. If you see a corpse like that, GET OUT. That means there is most likely a bandit nearby.
@Megotaku77 That wasn't their point. They're point was that games should be as long as they need to be, without all the extra fluff just so they can say "Hey, look over here! Our game's 40 hours long!". if that 40 hours is 100% quality content, with little to no filler, then go right ahead.
Cloning mammoths (assuming that that would mean introducing them back to the wild) is an absolutely ignorant and awful idea. Anyone who knows even the basics of how ecosystems work knows this. Introducing something new means more competition, which means some animals would not be able to adapt rapidly enough, thus going extinct, or at least disappearing from that environment. Just look at the Mississippi River. An introduced species completely took over. Now imagine that all over the world. I don't know about you, but the extinction of dozens of species is too high of a price to pay just for mammoths.
@Saxondale I think his point was that in games, as bad as this sound, killing people who're trying to do the same to you just isn't as shocking anymore. But when you accidentally kill something that wasn't even remotely involved in the conflict, it's sort of an "Oh crap, I just killed it" moment, so you feel it more. The dog's just an example,
