Well, not interested in the whole caveman thing in a Far Cry game. They could have called it something else featuring the Dunia engine.

Bad setting. A lot of other settings and directions would have been nice. An attempt to redo Far Cry 2 with better quests (that effect the conflict/story) and more story would have been nice. An excellent theme that they sadly didn't capitalize on much.

As I said over on Reddit, the premise sounds awfully boring and not very exciting at all. But I will obviously give them the benefit of the doubt.

If the coop mode is well done I may get it after it goes on sale.

Will the game model clubbing potential female partners and dragging them by the hair to your cave?

Agreed. If they would rework that, add in the dangerous animals, the checkpoints you can take over (at least until a fight breaks out to take it back) and make controls less "floaty"....that would be a great game. Just modding out the Ubisoft-brown filter was a huge improvement. Great game, I'd like to see it perfected.

I wonder if they're trying to put out a survival game like is the trend these days? Maybe they'll incorporate eating/drinking/climate etc? That's the only way I see this being any good. Just doing a FC in the stone age sounds incredibly dull.

First they got to show you the cutscene where they invent music...but before that you have to collect bones and rocks and craft the instruments.

The Collectors edition comes with a high quality prehistoric gaming mouse.





It also works as a multi-tool and home cave protection device.

I'm thinking the game is set pre-bathing and hygiene.

Yeah. I didn't know cave women had such flawless skin and also wore make up. Lol

Still, no caveman will kick her out of his Bedrock. She can do whatever she wants with my Flintstones.

Although I believe people during the stone age were less hairy than those of the 1970s... smile


Why men throw their lives away attacking an armed Witcher... I'll never know. Something wrong with my face?
