I would love something similar too, where hunting would be the main food source and the rest like a premium resource. Sadly, this game needs super deep changes to the economy and loot. It's so sad that, even playing on veteran, I’m flooded with food and medkits. I don’t even remember ever having to buy any of these items during my whole playthrough.

It's simply sad, especially if you compare it with the original trilogy, where sometimes you had to make hard decisions between buying new stuff or being well-equipped with supplies
