GOTY. One of the best rouge-likes every made. Near perfect in every aspect.

Cool concept, poor execution.

:(

Short, repetitive and boring.

Nothing like the on-hold project I've been looking forward to for years. Adds almost nothing of value to the base game, which is great by the way. Extremely disappointed.

Worth Every Penny.

GOT all year, every year.

How to do Early Access: The Game.

A very British interpretation of insanity.

I was very, very surprised to see that this game was released to soon after entering early access. A name like Avalanche Studios carries weight with me, and that's mostly the reason I bought this game a few days after it came out on early access. It didn't have much content, but it was in early access, so I has expecting that they'd add more. I was so very much hoping that I'd able to return to this game after a few months of development. I was wrong.

First of all, this is not a bad game. It's a good game, don't get me wrong. The graphics are amazing, the sound design is probably the best of any game I've ever played, the dinosaurs are well designed and the terrain is well crafted. The world is massive and will take you at least an hour to walk from one side to the other on foot.

With that being said, mechanically, this game is sound, more or less. The new flying dinos broke the game with their bugs, (thankfully, the worst one was fixed) they fly through terrain, are sometimes impossible to see or hear, and make you unable to reclaim your gear after you become dino-chow. There are a few more bugs related to the dinosaurs, but thankfully I've never encountered a crash.

The game (to my knowledge) advertised this to be a survival game, but, don't be fooled: there is anything that remotely has to do with the "survival" genre that we've come to know and love within games like The Forest and Stranded Deep. The only type of "survival" to be found here is the kind where you avoid not being killed. This IS "survival", per se, as surviving literally means "not dying", but hey, semantics. I was really looking forward to the kind of survival that I thought was being advertised, and I suppose that it could be said that it was my misinterpretation of what I read that lead to my disappointment. I was so excited to make a base, look for food, water and weapons, make medicines and then go hunting for some large extraterrestrial lizards. (Yes, in case you didn't know, this game takes place on an alien planet.) I do know for sure that this game labels itself as "realistic". This is probably where my misconception originated from:

"Hunt - Explore - Survive The most realistic prehistoric survival game ever created." theHunter: Primal, 2014.

There's nothing realistic about hunting dinosaurs on an alien planet. Trust me. I know my ♥♥♥♥. But do I care about that? No, of course not. I get to hunt dinosaurs realistically, of course. All sillyness aside, and to summarize what I've just said, I'm sad I can't have a real dino-hunting/survival game.

This leads me to me largest and most bitter gripe with this game: there's no content. There's nothing. Literally. Well, not literally... there's a few gigs of space being taken up by this on my C: drive, but it's substance is lacking quite a lot. There are a total of 5 dinosaurs to hunt. 5 dinosaurs in total.This is a dinosaur hunting game with only 5 dinosaurs. Why? There are only a few weapons too. These are what I can think of: Magnum, Rifle, Shotgun, .50 cal Sniper Rifle, Machete, Bow. The bow is REALLY buggy too, and I've never found the .50 cal Sniper Rifle. While there are some cool attachments you can put on your weapons, there is no excusing the lack of content here. Sure the world is big, but what good is it if there's nothing to do.

The game is thirsty, it's STARVING, its emaciated; just begging---"Please, please, give me sustenance! Food, water!" And we're here, kneeling beside this sad mess of skin and bones, screaming, "Yes! Please! Feed it, FEED IT! WE BEG OF YOU!"
The developer answered our cries for more content by saying, "Hmm... maybe. If it sold more copies, we might."

(I can provide a link to the discussion thread where a dev said this, if anyone wants it. Assuming they don't delete it, of course. The thread is titled "Post-release heads up.)

Uhh. I paid $20 dollars for this game. For some unimaginable reason, the devs think that the small, bare-bones amount of content they added within the few short months of early access somehow, and unexplainably, warrented a 50% increase to the price of the game. It's insulting, really. I never would have bought this game in early access if I knew that they wouldn't add anything to it. That's the risk we take when we buy early access games and technically it is our fault for making a bad purchase, but still, it makes me feel sh*tty. Something needs to be done about early access and fast, otherwise, I'm probably never going to buy early access again. The sheer amount of failures of games that come out of that proverbial cesspool too early, or in this case, looking like a actor/actress who overdid the pea soup diet for their first appearance at the Academy Awards is staggering. To conclude, this game is a massive disappointment and a massive waste of potential, one of the largest for me in recent memory. Do youself and your loved ones a favor and stay away from this thing.

I might have expected this sort of thing from Expansive Worlds, but not Avalanche. Why Avalanche, why! I'm not not sure what kind of role they played in developing this game, but just the fact alone that they had anything to do with this game makes me want to give Just Cause 3 a miss.

The greatest 2D game in existance.
