I agree with everything OP has said and I have one thing I myself would like to add.
Creature physics needs some serious work. A giant snake last night managed to poke its head through my wood walls and kill me and several others while inside our house. Like wise, a way I have been dealing with wolfs is to run outside and aggro them, run back in the house and shut the door. The wolfs will glitch their heads into my house and I can safely shoot them with a bow and arrows. Its cheap but its the only way to survive a wolf pack.. So maybe work on the physics of wolfs (and all other animals too)
