I feared that they couldn’t really commit to using no guns in a game series that is built on gun action, but it seems they have. That minimap and UI are looking extremely familiar, not to mention the tiger’s running animation. I’ll wait for a sale or something, but I’ve a big problem with their pricing. I want to play this game, and I want to support the new direction they’re attempting, but I firmly believe that every time you spend money you’re casting a vote for the type of world you want to live in, and I don’t want to live in a world where games companies charge us more and more for less and less. It remains to be seen just how long the game is, so I’m not willing to guess what a fair price is, but charging the same as they did for Far Cry 4, for half a new game with no multiplayer is not the fair price. I feel they’re trying to pull the wool over our eyes with the pricing. well, still a honey badger) and a new map, but that’s exactly what Blood Dragon did, and it acknowledged that it was a short game and charged accordingly.

Sure, there are new models (a brown bear is now a cave bear, a tiger is now a sabertooth tiger, an elephant is now a woolly mammoth, and the honey badger is. Graphically, this game is the same as Far Cry 4. It uses the same UI elements (see the alert indicators and map icons?), same engine, and many of the same animal and human animations. You can hear from the gameplay videos I linked above that none of the other press really believe this about the game, and neither do I.

#FAR CRY PRIMAL PC DEMO FULL#
Given that Far Cry 4 only came out a year ago, and that it’s not an annualised series (like Ubisoft’s favourite child Assassin’s Creed), people figured this would be more of an expansion along the lines of Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon, a single-player only short campaign which had the decency to release at a discounted price, to reflect the fact that it’s not a full game.ĭevelopers at Ubisoft Montreal are insisting that this is “the next Far Cry game”, and are charging full price for it. There are videos from outlets like Angry Joe, PC Gamer, and Game Trailers as well as the one below from the developers themselves (in case you want to see only what they want you to see). The press videos on YouTube are worth watching as they’re mostly uninterrupted gameplay, which is a more honest representation. The new trailer is shown at the top of this page and shows a lot more of the game in action, giving us a better feel for what to expect. Presumably a press embargo was lifted at this stage. Ubisoft unveiled their second trailer on Thursday night at The Game Awards, which was immediately followed by a slew of gameplay videos from various press outlets who had played it in the days prior. The short time from reveal to release is bucking the trend of super-long hype periods, and it worked very well for Fallout 4 this year. At the time of Primal’s announcement I did a post on why I was optimistic, but also what I was concerned about.
#FAR CRY PRIMAL PC DEMO UPDATE#
This is the second update for the game and comes in at 577MB for the PS4 and 570MB for the Xbox One.Far Cry Primal is coming out of nowhere and is really worth keeping an eye on! It was first revealed in October, less than two months ago, and it’s releasing on February 23rd (March for PC), just over two months hence (Achievement Unlocked: “Use ‘hence’ in the blog). The update also improved the “overall difficulty of a mission,” improved performance, fixed a trophy issue when taming a beast, fixed a fast travel issue, and added the option to not show enemies on the minimap. Ubisoft has released an update to Far Cry Primal that added the option to disabled the HUD, fixed XP update issues, and added bug fixes to the action-adventure game.
