The editors didn't like

Huge living world, The trademark gameplay works great even without guns, Lots of potential for future exploration in this setting

Far Cry Primal sets out to give us a look into the lives of our earliest heritage and it succeeds in doing so. While the story was by far not my favorite element due to the lack of urgency and development for the player's character, it still has enough of...
Abstract: Far Cry has always been very good at getting the player into an open world and letting them interact with nature. However, the reasons for arriving there haven't always been as strong. It's how you end up with frat boy turned tribal warrior Jason Brody. I...
Abstract: Well, that didn't take Ubisoft long, eh? Yesterday's tease via stream lasted only a day before the French publisher couldn't stand the excitement anymore and announced Far Cry Primal. Here's what we've learned since then.Far Cry Primal takes place in 10,0...
Is it worth entering the land of Oros and fighting for the survival of the Wenja? I believe it is. Far Cry Primal is a good game, with some weaknesses and good strengths. One thing I want to say is that it feels more like Far Cry 3 Blood Dragon than eithe...
