Mid and end game

[Czechintocash]

Any ideas for a mid and end game goal? I'm finding it hard to have any feeling of advancement or accomplishment. Crafted all clothes, tools at 100 what's next? No longer happy with just maintaining and surviving. Want to always better the situation.

Try watching some of Kraelman's streams.... he always has some pretty wild challenge modes that are quite fun... Should get some good ideas from there.

Sounds like you are already winning.

Early -> Find Shelter, water, food. Scavenger.

Mid -> Establish base. Hunt/trap/fish. Camper.

Late -> Craft clothes/bow. Explore maps. Wanderer.

Time-To-Restart-Already -> 100 pieces of scrap metal in one bin. Why.

yeah try living outside only, i did it back in a day, so much fun... because regular playstyle on stalker is way too easy. I would suggest starting in one map and dont go to any other maps, but its also easy.

You are allowed to enter buildings only for the first two days (48h ingame time). After this, you may never enter another building ever again. I was living in pleasent valley in caves mostly. After a while you get to know that there really are MANY caves in pleasent valley and learn the routes between them. It is probably A LOT easier now these days, than it was in like V.212 since you find cloth and scrap metal in such an abundance now. With the current build you might wanna try.... NEVER entering a building. (Probably only doable if you don't freeze at the beginning of the game, since the cold is the biggest problem especially early on)
