Kinda funny concept but as one pointed out animals need more int to survive in the wild... not to mention this was the day/age theyd have likely drown such a creature in the river at birth... ;D
Do like the idea of playing a simple, completely manipulatable, almost Frankenstein type character through... basically a pawn in whoevers plans you end up aligning with instead of the alpha type... might try this after launch/time or two through...
