While the map, terrain, environments, weather, etc- are all top notch
After running around for a few hours it feels like a dead, virtual game world

I have read and heard many comments about the animals that are killable that do not exist yet- but besides those, what of the ambiance?

Where are the nature sounds? Crickets? Bugs? Bees?
Birds?
Fish?
Flowers?
Bushes?
Falling leaves?
Pine cones? (Tahoe is overly abundant)

I hope these little details are not forgotten as they can make the difference in immersion
