The beauty of it is, nobody is forcing you to use it. Don't like it? Just disable it in Sandbox. Survival is going to become harder and harder as features are added, it was always intended to be a hardcore experience so a hardcore nutritional system doesn't seem far-fetched. Side note: I also doubt it will end up being as realistic as people expect, it still needs to be manageable/gamey enough for people to enjoy it. Oh yeah, my questions are more in the line of will the hunt for realism be to the detriment of gameplay? I like the idea of food system but as you say, it need to be enjoyable and manageable. You don't play "manage my diet" simulator in a zombie apocalypse game.
