Hi, new player here. I'm having a lot of trouble with the game because it doesn't feel like anything is worth it to do. Since death means losing everything in my inventory unless I can get back to it and clear the area of threats within ten minutes, and pretty much every advancement requires a LOT of random exploration and busywork (clay, copper, tin, food, most resources), it's been common for me to lose hours of progress due to random, unprovoked bear or wolf attacks that happen in less than a second, even with armor and a shield. I just lost a huge inventory full of stuff after a random bear attack followed by several consecutive wolf attacks moved the location of the grave marker to where I could no longer find my original inventory. After an hour of making the same run-back over and over, I'm left with a few flint tools and none of the things that took me a long time to get. It's kind of exhausting. Playing the game sort of feels like throwing my time and effort down a giant hole. Does it ever get any better? Perhaps I should modify some settings? Thanks.
