By the way, if there were some specific things that gave you trouble, feel free to tell.
I am interested in how people perceive the game's difficulty.

So far the only way I can survive is through getting some distance and throwing fire potions, so once creatures get too close to me I'm ruined unless I can lose them. I gained access to shock/stun potions once via plot progression, but was saving them for the quest. I haven't managed to unlock anything on the technology tree aside from torches and fire potions. I suspect armor or access to more tools would help, but I keep not getting that far.
It is nice that massive forest fires produce plentiful resources for more fire potions.
