Putting the combat difficulty on easy eliminates the hunger and cold and I really, really wish there was a separate toggle for those, because the combat is quite good, even on hard.

Overal presentation is quite solid with very greeable visuals, music and fairly consistent voice acting.

The graphics pop with fun colors, without giving you a head ache, and the music and sounds are done in such a way as not to drive you nuts.
