                  Great game

                  Really underrated. It's really fun and the weapons and pets are the best part of the game. I liked the villains and the voice acting and animations of the cut scenes where great.

                  Apocalypto meets 10,000 BC

                  I love this game I think the world is enjoyable and rivetingly beautiful it's like Takkar is the main character in Apocalypto

                  The only thing I didn't enjoy was the in-game voices Hands down I love the game
                  7richardrc-18596

                  Well I was liking it...

                  Till I did the last mission and completed it and then boom. Crash. And it never saved or gave me the achievement. I reloaded and I had to start the mission at the temple before getting to the boss. I said nope no more. And all I had was 1 other trophy before I got the platinum. Talk about anger man...

                  That aside, this game started crashing a ton halfway through. It's a miracle I stuck it out. The graphics I liked, the gameplay I liked, the beast aspect I liked. Also, the ease of getting all trophies (minus the crash above) was actually doable. Very similar to god of war in the aspect. The graphics I thought were good for a ps4 game playing on a 5. Stories pretty good too.

                  Idk maybe I will try another newer far cry sometime. But not now. This game has ruined that for now.

                  A literal and physical step backwards for the franchise

                  After playing Primal for a good 8 hours I am speechless, and not in the kind of way where you might be speechless after seeing a newborn baby, speechless as you would be after a terrorist attack, it really is that bad. It made absolutely no sense for the franchise to go back 10,000 years, I mean sure it's an original idea that we haven't seen before but there is a definite reason for that! One of the best parts of previous Far Cry games is the option to fully customise a myriad of different weapons depending on what type of player you were. In Primal there's only so much customising you can do to a Club. Yawn Yawn Yawn. The different characters you meet throughout the game are hard to make a connection with, and the fact they don't speak English is very frustrating, I know the developers wanted to stay authentic to the time period which isn't a bad move I guess, just very frustrating for the player, As I've previously said, I played 8 hours and quickly got bored of the tedious gameplay and flat missions, go here kill this guy take over this camp etc. To summarise there are so many more better games £40 can buy you, don't waste it on this drivel!

                  Original concept but i need to say that i couldnt finish it

                  The game have an interesting concept. But i need to say that the game is pretty limited in weapons, vehicles because they didnt exist at this time but it have an original story but i need to say that i couldnt finish it. Its good but pretty boring after 3 hours. The missions are pretty the same and feel repetitive. I enjoyed the characters but that s it. Good but thats it.

                    This game is set in prehistoric central Europe. Most of the animals are accurate with the time, with the exception of Jaguars (Panthera onca) Dholes (Cuon alpinus) and "Sabre-toothed tigers" (assumingly Smilodon populator). None of the three recognized species of Smilodon (S. populator, fatalis, and gracilis) are recorded in Europe, let alone anywhere else outside of North and South America, as are Jaguars. Dholes are only known to have lived in Southeastern Asia (and their historic range is not known to have extended into Europe).
