1. Story 18/20

Most competitive first person shooters will have little to no story.
Every legendary hunter, legendary item, standard monster mob, and boss
have their own bit of history or a description of their existence. On top
of that, every map is extremely unique with its own history and current state.
Hunt: Showdown does not focus on story but the fact that it's there makes their world
more alive than other competitive first person shooters.
A new sound track, a new monster, and new items are to be expected regularly due to the
strong foundation that is currently in place.

2. Gameplay & Controls 19/20

Game play is fairly simple, although there aren't any other games that could prepare you for this.
You can decide to play solo or up to three members including your self in a party for a bounty mission.
The party has to collect a maximum of three clues which are spread across the map while fighting off the environment
as well as other players. You then make your way to the big bad once the clues have revealed where it is hiding.
Each big bad has their own set of skills that they will use to try and kill you, while you have to take advantage
of their unique weaknesses. A banish then starts once the big bad is taken down, which lasts roughly 3 mins and 20 sec.
This action notifies the whole map of your current situation. All other hunters might knock on your door to take your bounty.
You then have to make your way to the designated extraction zone once the banish is complete, and you managed to survive.
All hunters will be hot on your tail, but you have a new power that will last for 5 seconds while using it. You gain the
ability to see through any object and perceive a vague location of your enemies.
Controls on the other hand can be a little tricky at first. Hunter vs Gunslinger.
A short video will resolve this: https://youtu.be/wTm_y0isvw8

I play as a hunter and I wouldn't say either is better than the other, but be sure to experience both!
All controls are similar to most competitive first person shooters, and I got up to speed fairly quick.
I would have given the controls a 20/20 but I have one issue with the load out. You can't change the slot of an item
that you got for free unless you destroy it and purchase the exact same thing, only to place it in a different
key binding. (I like my knife on '3' for quickest reaction to close combat)

3. Performance 17/20

Low end rigs will not stand a chance in the competitive aspect of the game. You need a stable connection,
and a rig that can handle the CryEngine environment. I play from South Africa with an avg. ping of 240ms.
All I can say is that the game was made by incredibly creative and smart people, and the result of their
hard work shows in the fact that I can head shot someone 60m away with an iron sight pistol while running.
I have a 1080ti and a standard i5, I get about 90fps while running the game on medium-high while streaming.
Optimisation so far have been impressive. I couldn't play the game with the exact same rig when the game launched,
and look at them now! It's amazing!

4. Visuals & Audio 20/20

Before getting into the actual world and it's beauty, I would first like to address the competitive
aspect. Crows, Ducks, Horses, Hives, Immolators, explosions, and gunfire. These are the things to listen and
look out for. It could save your life to remain hidden and it could give away their position if you pay attention.
The world is alive with non-hostile creatures that desperately want to give away your position. While unique hostile creatures
roam the open world and will try their best to kill you. A blind person could play this game by just listening to each unique sound
produced from each creature or surface you are walking on. The sky, the trees, the murky waters and shady bushes fall into the correct theme
for each map. Gruesomely beautiful and a sense of taste that you won't find in any other game. The designers and creators went above and beyond
to immerse you in this horrific western bayou.

5. Value 20/20

I have not seen one cent wasted on this game! JUST BUY IT ALREADY!
Updates are regular. They listen to their community. The community is helpful and nice.
Every match will feel brand new, and it will never get old!
INVEST AND REAP YOUR REWARDS!

TLDR

The game is great if you appreciate awesome visuals and audio.
You have to have a desire for competitive shooters because your opponent will be ready to kill you.
You need a medium to high end rig to play this game.
It is worth every cent.
I give this game a solid 94%.
