I hit my mark, but not critically enough to end it, nor to have it bleed out. Very far out, low winds, it was still not a guaranteed shot. It was only when I sat still out of frustration that one finally sauntered along. The gameplay mechanics even seem to insist upon that, but no matter how hard I searched, no matter how quiet I was, I never seemed to find an animal first. My idea of hunting is tracking and taking the shot the moment it's available. But I can't do that, I need to be on the move. Maybe the developers of theHunter: Call of the Wild really do expect the players to find a spot and nest up, just waiting for a grazing deer or curious bear to come along. It's entirely possible that maybe I just suck at the game.
The Cabela's games have a long track record ranging from mediocre to appalling, but you know what even the worst of that had? A decent amount of animals to shoot at. Hunting is something that's always appealed to me, but real life has never quite allowed me to get out during any of the hunting seasons around here so I had to settle on games that involve it. Some of the staff here have jokingly nicknamed me "Cowboy" for my admiration of the outdoors, and my thoughts on gun ownership. Sometimes, I’d question if the animal was ever really there at all, or if the same guy who faked the Big Foot footprints most recently was given a job on the developer team to make fake tracks. It gets boring playing for so long, hoping to find your mark only to feel like you're going in circles. But in terms of a game, I want a little bit more to shoot at. To a true hunter aficionado, they know to expect that.
I can't claim it's the best looking game ever, but it's definitely the best looking hunting title I've seen.Īs much as I love exploring, seeing scenic vistas across the map and the thrill of the hunt trying to track my prey, more often than not it was just that. The places you'll go, from the hilled forests to open low-lands, really are a sight to see. Between the two nature reserves, one in North America while another is located in Europe, you're going to have plenty of ground to roam. Despite not being the original intention, it's easily a great 'walking simulator'. Let's start with what the game does right.
But, looks aren't everything and for every moment I enjoyed walking the wild, I found myself being disappointed with the hunting aspects of it. theHunter: Call of the Wild is the latest installment in theHunter series, and without a doubt easily the best looking that it's offered up. It's another open season for hunters that prefer to experience nature from behind the keyboard rather than out in the elements.
