Way of the Hunter
SCORE: 71
I am so glad that my dad bought a copy of Way of the Hunter on the
Xbox Series X. Way of the Hunter can also be found on the PC and PS5.
This is a realistic hunting game with two massive areas to hunt in. Way
of the Hunter is so realistic that you may wander around rarely finding
any animals. Which is not exactly conducive of being able to hunt
anything. To be fair Way of the Hunter does provide the player with all
kinds of tools to find the animals like binoculars.
Way of the Hunter looks pretty good too. I enjoyed playing Way of the
Hunter because I felt like I was out in nature. There is plenty of
diversity in the massively large environments as well. At lot of effort
was put into making Way of the Hunter look good. There is blood as we
shoot the animals. If we wound the animal then we can track the blood
trail to try and catch up to it. The realistic bullet action within Way
of the Hunter can take some getting used to. I ran into all kinds of
problems hitting animals at far distances because of this.
Players can play the storyline or just go out there and explore. The
tutorial can be very helpful within Way of the Hunter. The tutorial is
also difficult to complete. If the tutorial is tough then you know the
game is going to be the same way. There is some bad language within Way
of the Hunter. I personally did not think the bad language was needed.
More creative writers would have shown their talent by using other
words. But then there is plenty of laziness in the industry in that
department.
The areas within Way of the Hunter are so big that we must drive to
different locations within the map. We drive over small rivers and more.
If you can take some big game then you get cool trophies within Way of
the Hunter. Sadly Way of the Hunter starts players off with small things
like pigeons. I had fun live streaming Way of the Hunter even though I
had problems finding any animals to hunt. I even went where the game
told me to go.
The first person perspective of Way of the Hunter works really well. I
love the different realistic looking guns within Way of the Hunter. I
wish the animals were not so easily spooked in Way of the Hunter. I can
get nowhere near them and they have left the area. I am going pretty
quiet too. At least I thought I was being quiet. Good entry but there
are much better hunting games.
