Fun But Not Without Problems

Reviewing this as a standalone mod

The monsters are really well designed and the animations are stellar. And I love the early game when they start appearing for the first time.

But in the late game things begin to get silly. It seems the viral progression scales really drastically out of nowhere, and not like a World War Z type thing. I believe the default system needs some serious balancing. The later mobs are also unbalanced in attack damage.

Additionally I appreciate the elaborate config, but I get extremely confused trying to manage/navigate it without causing a crash. Earlier versions of this mod had simpler configs which I enjoyed.

Finally, performance goes insanely down when the biomes arrive.

I like the mod but would like more fine tuning rather than more content being added.
