Far Cry Primal - Digital Apex Edition - PS4 [Digital Code]

This review is for the digital apex edition.Includes the game and a bunch of add on stuff including Flame Fang Sabretooth Skin, Storm Cloud Owl Skin, Ash Back Mammoth Skin, Quick Path Gatherer, Quick Path Crafter, Wenja Hunter Paint, Legend of the Mammoth, Blood Shasti, Quick Path Warrior, and Quick Path Hunter.I originally started playing the Far Cry Series after getting the Far Cry Collection that included Far Cry 2, 3 and Blood Dragon a couple years ago. Although I found the collection and series a bit hit and miss to me as I thought Far Cry 2 was just ok but a bit frustrating because of its save quirks and being an older game, the gameplay was a bit dated and I felt Blood Dragon was a bit of a disappointment. But I enjoyed playing both Far Cry 3 and 4 as they are both fun and action packed with good storylines.So, I have been looking forward to something a bit different with the Far Cry Series and after the Primal Apex edition dropped to 16 bucks for black Friday, I grabbed it as I figured I couldn’t go wrong at that price.Primal has a different setting and look but has the familiar feel of FC3 and 4. The biggest difference in gameplay is the ancient weapons versus the modern ones that were in FC3 and 4. I personally found it a bit more challenging to use the prehistoric weapons than the previous FC games. One small issue for me was how hard it was to see the aiming dot as it seems to blend into the background sometimes. There are times when it seems that the enemies have an easier time spotting and hitting you than they should as well they sometimes also blend into the backgrounds. Both are relatively minor issues for me though.If you are familiar with the gameplay of the previous FC games, it is pretty easy to jump right into the game and get going without much difficulty at understanding the game. Ubisoft tends to stick with what works and although the game has a familiar feel the changes made give this game enough to feel different and fun. With that said though, there is some repetitiveness with some of the collecting and side missions that the FC games tend to have that can be a bit annoying.Like FC4, the graphics in this are beautifully done with gorgeous prehistoric landscapes with great audio to match. The story is good, maybe not as good as the previous games, but I found it interesting enough to keep me invested in playing the game. The animal taming is a pretty cool feature as well as the other abilities you can add via skill points.If you like the previous games in the series, especially FC3 and 4, you will most likely like Primal, although I will say that if you prefer modern weapons and a variety of weapons, you may be a bit disappointed here. I personally am enjoying the game and it will keep me busy enough until the next entry in the series.4 stars

It is serving its purpose.

nice graphics ,big world to explore sometimes tedious running around, might just be me tho !!
