I read in a few reviews that no matter what you do you die in 2 or 3 days from insanity. One reviewer said he turned off hunger and thirst and whatever in the game file but there was no way to alter sanity and he still died after 3 days from insanity. Can anyone confirm or refure this? I'm not buying til I know...not 20 bucks for a timed demo like

Sanity is easily controllable once you L2P, keep leeches off you, remove the worm parasite asap. fire, food, and other things help insanity. The hardest problem I'm having in the game is finding the plants that provide bandages. Bandages are easily as important as water/food and the plants are rare. I got coordinates for a few of the plants and head there and harvest them right at the start of the game.

I have a feeling that those who die from insanity, well, they are in a hurry.
I am on day 18 and yet to have any sanity problems. if you play slow its not a problem.
Well at least for me.

There are +/- effects to sanity. stand by a warm fire at night, thats +3 sanity. eat a larva, that's -5 sanity. eat cooked food (wild animal) it's + sanity points, eat cooked people. . . thats -35.

I dont understand why everyone is having trouble with sanity. I had trouble for a little while but now it's no problem. Stay on top of your condition and nutrition. Carry enough of all necessary supplies to fix any ailment. Retreat when necessary

I agree, as I said, I think most that are having problems with it are from them just being in to much of a hurry, or eating things they are not supposed to and get slapped with the sanity penalty.

Thank you, I had a feeling that was the problem but some of these dev companies are so shady I wanted to be sure b4 i bought it

It all comes down to making sure you looking after yourself correctly. Once you figure out how to blance your diet and making sure you keep topped up with supplies for bandages, bone needles (to remove worms), regularly removing leeches ect, ect. It gets a whole lot easier to remain sane.

Since the patch today, its easier to see whats driving your insanity down. Small txt pops up letting you know you have leeches etc..

yea its kinde hard on start - i did die like 5-10 times in first 2h of gameplay before i took grip on what should i do and what i shouldnt. and sanity aint that hard to manage after that in my opinion - also its kinde fun to hear voices when you lower it :D:D
