Casualties is everything I love about a survival game, but if theres one thing I don't enjoy it's that I enjoy the game play loop too much. I can only save upon reaching the next level. I like difficulty, but I just spent four hours on the first layer screwing around and being a goober. I have a life I need to get back to, and it's already midnight. XD
I mean, it makes you more attached to your character, which makes it all the more sad to see them meet their demise.
I hope there's eventually an option to choose a different start that grants you like, a class that could potentially have a purpose in lore which is to kill those who aren't going down, who begin with guns, at the cost of being specialized for shooting, thus gaining accuracy, at the cost of not having certain skills, resulting in debuffs such as not being capable of fastening tourniquets (and thus having to get an NPC to do it for you), maybe having a more simplified health menu to fit a targetting system (perhaps FOCUS from gunsaw?) or maybe even the inability to swim.
