There's a temperature mechanic (player needing to warm around fires after being out too long). Also some special night events and stuff like that.

Many 3d assets are from free sources still (for example, you can get basic props and weapon models easily anywhere on the web as free license), but I'm planning to replace a lot of them as I learn more blender. I have already created animations for the shotgun and some melee weapons, plus other misc. things.

AI is fine for certain things, for example, you could take pictures of walls or ground and then use AI to tile them properly for texture usage (quality depends on the model though).

Just using AI often gives "AI-like" results which look bad, so it's better to use a real base.

There's also tons of free textures online anyway. Just depends what works for you.
