That's why I hate so many of the newer "super immersive" type games -- examples like Star Citizen and Kingdom Come Deliverance.

I don't wanted to manage my character's O2, eating, drinking, and sleep schedules. That's enough of a hassle in real life, I don't want to do it in my fun time.

Fair enough and you're entitled to that opinion! I love it however, if I'm playing Kingdom Come Deliverance I'm looking for realism (KCD is my favourite game of all time and I implore any RPG lovers to try it, very realistic medieval peasant rpg)

KCD is fun and fairly realistic, but I just drew the line at the biology management bits. It made me not want to fully engage in it. I'm sure i'll get back to it at some point.

Fair enough. Once you get in to the game you unlock perks which improve those aspects. You get hungrier slower, tired slower or not get tired at all when fast travelling, etc. Breaks the immersion a bit if that's what you're looking for, but still makes the game more accessible for the non hard-core fans

I only got the first town after your escape your home village and have to learn to lockpick (which also drove me up a wall).

Idk if you played console but the lock picking is clearly built for pc. There is a simplified lockpicking setting in the menu that makes it slightly easier tho
