You are upset by a lot of things. Even you wished this game on Switch which is not happening. And also, you hide something that you hate and you just pretending that you don’t care. When people have a valid point to criticize you, you ignore them and you always think you are right. You used “logic” to please yourself, not for others. I have seen many people have done that before and it didn’t work out for them. Also, you insulted that person and called him a “numbskull”. What a disrespectful....
And Freakers are smarter than zombie. In Days Gone, snow make them stronger. Freakers can eat,sleep,drink and produce their own kind. They can easily die by starving and they have to eat their own kinds to survive.
This is why Microtranaction in AAA game is never good ideas. It’s just make you grind the game too long and too tedious and it test you if you want to earn the cool stuffs by using real money.
