| My one trip through the game, I rested only once a day, and only at night. This adds a tactical dimension to the game. But mostly, resting every five minutes after using up a handful of spells always feels too gamey to me, which takes me out of the escapism effect that I'm trying for. Recognizing the day-night dynamic makes the gameworld feel more alive to me, somehow.
And I never used wands, potions, or other consumable items. I kept saving them for the really hard battles. Then I'd forget about them. Then the game was over.
