i think my own most Common cause of death is just 'Drauger', And not because I've died repeatedly to them in the swamp, but because 2 of my very few deaths just happened to involve them. Once to a 2-star Drauger in the swamp while all I had was Bronze armor. And Once to an invasion while I was ill prepared.

Otherwise only a couple other deaths and related either to bad timing or I was afk.

As for Stamina related deaths, I really don't see how so MANY people are dying to it.

- Maybe people are eating nothing but HP-focused foods?
- People aren't at all utilizing Stamina Potions?
- People will run/swing their weapons constantly at zero stamina without letting it recover?
- People don't realize being Wet/cold reduces Stamina bar/Recharge time?
- People ignore Comfort Rating and the 'Rested' Mechanics?

*food run out and effect degrade long before the food has run out. it is also very bothersome having to farm to keep foodbuffs on fulltime, a lot of the time is spent with no food or very little. the timers on foods are also easily unbalanced.
*none really want stamina potions. let alone carry them around.
*people do play the game and utilize their character, yes. you know, hitting mobs and trees.
*being wet is not something you can really control, unless playing like a caveman at the slightest sight of bad weather. having to "rest" every 10-20 min in this game where it's a rush to take advantage of daytime is beyond annoying.

i build and restore huts everywhere. do i ever use them to refresh my 20 minute buff from main base? no. it comes down to a choice: play or tend to tedious boredom.

much more can be said. if there is no player choice in game and the game just force you down a streamlined path im not gonna bother elaborate on the value of such a game.
