    You can turn down the difficulty and still be starving. Different people will have different sweet spots where they're suffering, but not taken out of the game by death loops and constant frustration.

        I think you misunderstood what I said about restarting. A lot of people, especially those who are new, will get stuck in some kind of death loop around day 3-6. Death is intended. A death LOOP is not. A loop will stop your progress.

        I have seen loads of people give those folks a min-max itinerary and tell them to restart and play ALL of that story again. Do you think people will get to day 6 again if they have to read all that text again? Do you think they'll have a good experience story-wise? Do you think they will ever finish it? It's not a short game. It's definitely not about min-maxing either. Restarting is a great way to break the emotional journey.

        What I think people should do in a death loop is to temporarily turn down what they need to turn down and turn it back up after they're through whatever they were stuck on.

            Sorry. I went overboard and started arguing with people who aren't here. I do think 2 days is way too far for most people to want to go back. I didn't even want to go back to that morning the one time I accidentally traded away a quest item for a snack.
