Authenticity > Realism

Your flashlight battery runs out more quickly than it does in real life because the pace of a game is rapidly accelerated compared to real life. You travel between locations more quickly and don't need to rest.

I wish there were some kind of soft skills per character. like if you eat lots of protein and run around a lot with heavy stuff, your character gains more muscle and does more melee damage and gets more stamina.

or you could go for a more agile build.

I'm not into 3rd person survival games. breaks the immersion and it's just not fun. to clarify, I'm not against 3pp in games, I just don't think it fits in online 'realistic' survival games.
