hello
im kind of new (playing some on and off for few years now, also old fan of terrafirmacraft mod) i like hardcore when it comes to realism settings and this game is very good on that , also you can tune it with ingame settings + config files and im always amazed how amazing survival in this game is
on other hand there is one thing that annoy me most and ruin immersive survival stuff for me and its ofc wolfes ... i read some of this topic and i agree with most of what being said but one thing - i, in fact, think that wolfes are way too easy , once you get some armor they are nothing and (i play with some combat overhaul mod) 1 hit in head is enough for them usually, they so weak my tactic for em is to get lot of them follow me and then finish em all at once ... there is nothing immersive about that like there is nothing immersive in numbers of them which is like 100x too much , there are forests where there are only wolfes behind every tree but not others animals, that doesnt make sense at all , there is so much of them and they howl so loud when i mine 200 blocks under surface i hear more wolfes than drifters ... compared to other stuff in this game it seems like they were just added and forgoten cos that simple thing just doesnt fit at all to that impressive game
for me easy solution to this is simple , make them stronger and more of them but more rare ... i mean when you start hear howling you should know you in trouble cos there is pack of them near but it should be rare not like this , mayby make em spawn only when there is enough other animals nearby so it will feel like they real hunting , whatever you do something has to be done , all stuff added in recent updates is nice but honestly i would care more if there were better wolfes than some end game areas im going visit once if at all
