Crafting is vital for survival and progression. You'll need to hunt animals for their skins to craft larger wallets, ammo pouches, and syringe kits. Plants are used to craft various syringes: healing, hunting, and combat buffs. Always keep an eye out for crafting materials. Inventory management involves deciding which weapons to carry and how many syringes to stock. Don't hoard items you don't need; sell excess loot at vendors. Expanding your inventory capacity through crafting should be an early priority to carry more ammo and supplies, making your expeditions more efficient.
