PC Has this game turned from a scavenging game to a dungeon crawler?

Do you consider the game more of a dungeon crawler and less of a horror/survival game?

I strongly suspect that implementation of biome and POI difficulty will also include loot table changes.  Not to mention the introduction of new lower level weapons and other changes.  Things will be way different by the time A20 is complete.

 
there is no disconnect between horror survival and dungeon crawl.

the first horror survival game i played was dungeon master. it was a dungeon crawl puzzle game and terrifying with vanishing light, requiring food and water, monsters walking around making shuffling noises, sneaking up on you, trap doors dropping you into a mass of terror.

i was able to revisit some of that horror with recent alphas, when the floor gave way and i fell into a room of mass terror.

eventually, the horror aspect disappears. it happens in all games, once you get used to the mechanics. but the first time that mummy snuck up behind me and went "whaa!" is still a precious memory from dungeon master. and i have several more of those memories from 7d2d.
