Changed score to wait. Sadly at hour 43 the game had a game killing bug and I can pretty much recreate it. ruclips.net/video/L2fa-15TBSo/видео.html There is a very odd binoc bug that jiggles when your in sloped spots. So be warned of that. Only got it twice but it sucks and I informed the dev of that and one other one. Also you want a challenge? I challange ya not to enjoy the discord and patreon if you have a look! www.patreon.com/AngryCentaurGaming
I really don’t understand how you are not the king of the mountain when it comes to game reviews, previews, and walkthroughs. You are so pure in your profession. Not bought and paid for like other personalities/companies. I hope you become the king of the mountain one day and make millions.
THIS is what I love. When a game that normally wouldn’t be on my radar suddenly gets added to my wishlist because of a great review. I’m not a hunter, I went and got an 8 point was I was about 14, but the sitting and waiting all day snd nothing happens just didn’t appeal to me. This game on the other hand seems pretty cool, and I’m going to have to check it out eventually. It sounds like a realistic sim, but not so realistic that you play for ten hours and never see anything (if you’re taking it seriously, and not just blasting “Fred Bear” while driving around the woods in your Willys Jeep). Great review ACG!
One thing he didn't mention is the game will have difficulty settings going from newbie to ultimate hunting sim. It changes the animal alertness levels, information it gives you on the animal etc and that sounds so much better because it would appeal to both newcomers and veteran hunters.
@@connorkenway09 he did say that it’s a game that requires you to get good at it. So I’m guessing no difficulty settings. But he also mentioned the hunters vision. Which I assume makes tracking easier. And is there if you require it. I’m going in a total newbie to all things hunting. So I’ll take whatever help the game offers to start with 😂
@@mclovinirishthere is difficulty settings. It's possible he didn't even find them if he never made it past the tutorial and clicked "choose territory". It ranges from absolutely nonchalant animals to psychotic paranoid so you get to choose your challenge level. Highest difficulty removes the hunter vision so you need to apply all the knowledge that the game gives you of everything hunting. Blood tracks can be tracked without the sense and even with it they mostly glow only if within visible range, meaning that the game character sees them and it hints to you that they're there.
@@connorkenway09 yeah I got it at launch. Really enjoying it. Animals can get spooked super easily. I’m down wind, moving like a ninja (or so I think lol). Animals 250m away. Then they all call and run off. It’s a new level of challenge I’m enjoying getting to grips with.
Really excited about this. My ultimate dream hunting game--minus realistic hunting of dinosaurs and megafauna--would be a combination of The Hunter, Ultimate Fishing Simulator and Snow Runner.
@@connorkenway09 Absolutely. The rifle in Jurassic Park 2 would have drilled right through its skull. The rifles in Jurassic Park 3 were even bigger--Barret .50 bmg's. They were specially designed in the 80's to be shot over the shoulder like an RPG to engage helicopters. A .50 bmg--particularly an AP or a MK211 round--would shoot through its head and come out its ass. The Jurassic Park movies have LONG portrayed modern weaponry in a completely false light. Which is understandable of course, because otherwise they would be really short movies.
I am an avid Hunter and Fisherman. The total Simulation is totally a draw for me over Arcade style. Almost like the same issue with most fishing games of catching a fish every cast. I understand developers have to make game appeal to a large variety of players, so I get it. I want a great hunting Sim in VR..that would be ultimate!...Thanks for the great review as usual!
Same. I love Call of the Wild but its spawns can go wonky and of course in the past you had the times here the game glitched at stopped but I loved it for a middle ground. This is, at least in terms of amounts* usually, and AI is just spot on
This is exactly why ACG is the best when it comes to video game reviews. I'm not usually interested in titles such as this one. However, the review is so detailed and enjoyable that I'm actually excited to play Way of the Hunter. Thanks once again Karak for another honest and thorough review! I really appreciate it! God bless and stay safe!
I’ve never been into hunting games. I try a large variety of games in many different genres. But hunting was never one of them. I did get positive vibes from this though. I kept it on my radar and checked things out as they became available. Up to the point that I preordered it. I’ve been a long term subscriber and although your reviews aren’t make or break for me. I do value your opinion. Almost always they align with my own. So I’m very glad to see that you rate this well. Even more so when I know the enjoyment you got out of Call Of The Wild. Keep up the excellent work as always. And health n happiness to you and yours 👍🏼
I have clocked hundreds of hours, in almost every map in HCoW. I almost blew this game off when I heard about it. After watching this though.. I’m going to pick it up. That audio is really important and I am a bit tired of only hunting drink zones. This game looks gorgeous and fills the gap of some of the things I have always wanted out of HCoW. Thanks dude!
As a devotè of Hunter: Call of the Wild, I had my eye on this one. It's good to see it be a positive review. As far as I'm concerned, when I can't be in the woods myself, it's great to have these awesome sims to jump into! Great vid and review as always brother 🤙
The DLC should be a "public land hunt" where every time you open the map, it's procedurally generated and has a 1 in 20 chance of loading game with it. There will also be 5:1 npc hunters spawned within 2 miles of any road.
i really like you noted the realism difference between COTW and WOTH. This seems much more like hunting and less about "farming" the animals at hotspots.
@@wout123100 its not the same, COTW need zone animals are BOUND to that need zone, WOTH animals are not, the herd can be at any one of the need zones, or somewhere roaming around the need zones. Big difference.
Wow the graphics for this look quite good, even the map looks vast , Might sound cliche but looks like it would be a great map for a battle royale game.
I've been waiting for this one, glad to hear it holds muster. I had super high hopes and also a great deal of trepidation going into Open Country, which had more bush craft and survival elements and was also way more of a cartoony arcade hunting sim. I would love to see similar survival elements in a more realistic hunting sim like Way of the Hunter. Then I'd really have a stew going.
Helpful review of Way of the Hunter, thanks ACG. Wandering the wilderness in these games is half the fun, seeing all the sights. Glad the 2 maps are a giant scale.
Its great to see someone with outdoor experience review a game like this and notice the smaller details. As someone who has spent a lot of time in the woods, this game has me excited. Great review.
Oh my God. They modeled the fact that if you don't look through your scope at the correct angle you just see black. I'm sold. Reminds me of the 90s Cabela's games kinda.
Great video about this game and your views about the realism compared to real life scenarios. I may have to buy this game and want to try out "Ranger" difficulty to really test myself :)
Thanks, Karak! Saw an ad for this the other day, thought it looked interesting because it was pretty and guns I guess. I appreciate you taking a look at it, I don't know that it's for me, but I always enjoy your content.
Like it. Can just walk for hours to unlock camps or cabins searching for diffrent need zones and just take in the digital nature. Don't care if I can't get a hunt going. Just love walk sim the game without it getting boring.
I'm a vegetarian who has been playing these games since deer hunter 2005. You're right about these being more about stealth, leads to games like Arma very well.
I'm A Serious Hunter And Fishermen I've Also Got A Vivid Imagination When It Comes To Hunting And Fishing. My Fantasy Dream Is To Hunt Creatures Like Cryptids, Aliens, Mythical Creatures & Fantasy Creatures, I Also Have Fantasy Dreams Of Going Back In Time And Hunting Creatures Before Their Extinction Like Dinosaurs And Ice Age Animals Or Going Back In Time To 19th Century India Back When Tiger Hunting Was Still Legal. I Also Like To Pretend Of Hunting Creatures In Films Like Jurassic Park Or Star Wars (Creatures Not Beings).
The most well thought out, extensive hunting game review I've ever seen. As a huge fan of this niche genre bravo sir. Thank you very much. I love theHunter Classic and I was not a fan of Call of the Wild much to my disappointment. Really looking forward to this one.
This is very thorough review! I have noticed a few of the things you mention and some I didn't realize. You earned my subscription because it's clear you have played enough hours to discover everything. You must like it!
i loved call of the wild. not because of the hunting (which was great) but because of how real the outdoors felt. just hiking through the hills and brush was amazing. looking forward to trying this out.
Never played a hunting pc game before, this looks incredible though! Sadly I think I've got too many other purchases vying for my wallet atm, maybe on a sale in the future. P.S. LOVE the time stamps, thank you
So the number one difference between Way of the hunter and cotw is that if there is an animals miles away you actually get to see and shoot it? Not like in cotw where it doesn't appear until you're much closer? Also Way of the hunter added difficulty settings that changes animal alertness which is so much better for variety of players.
This game has unlimited potential. I had to stop playing sadly because I can’t handle when the blood trials disappear right in front of my eyes. I will pick it back up when things are fixed
I'm not a hunter but I got covid last year and hunter call of the wild was on gamepass. I downloaded it and ended up buying every expansion for it. It was the most immersive game I've ever played. To be fair it looks like this game is just improving on the already rock solid foundation that Hcotw has laid with improved visuals. I'm super excited for this game. Great review as always.
man.. i can't believe im saying this but i guess i gotta grab this hahah as a life long hunter this looked fun! sadly the two ruptured disks in my back im waiting to see a surgeon for have pretty much stopped me from hunting anymore. miss it a lot haha
Finally someone who kows what they're talking about, real life experience compared to the game. I enjoyed this vid and subbed, I'm also a hunter and was curious how it stacked up. Tired of watching gamers with ZERO experience talk about how "realistic" a game is when the only time they lift a finger is to scratch their butts.
On one hand I'm very excited for a new and improved hunting game. On the other I've spent so much on COTW over the years including reserves I haven't even played on. This looks great though.
I got turned onto Snowrunner after watching your review and it ended up becoming an all time favourite of mine, I've never so much as dabbled in a hunting game before, but just maybe this is where I start...
I played a bit of Hunter Call of the Wild because you impressed me while playing it, and I gotta say I really enjoyed the game. I've been hunting once in real life (for boar) which was an absolute nightmare, so it's fun to actually learn about the animals and what it takes to actually stalk in a game. Plus the environment looks amazing! Thanks for the review!
Imagine a DLC where you are hunting he extinct animals of past? Granted that would put you out of the experience but I saw a bird in this video and immediately thought "Dodo?"
This review has me interested in hunting games for the first time - downloading Call of the Wild now on my series X, which may lead me to buying Way of the Hunter if it gels with me. You’d make a great salesman btw :) Your enthusiasm is contagious.
Seeing the Recent MX legends game from THQ Nordic. I was really surprised to see this quality this game was. As a long time player of call of the wild. This was truly how I wanted that game to turn out. I want to personally thank you for this great review. I will pick up this game. Keep up the great reviews. I always enjoy them.
I love The Hunter Call of the Wild. There are so few hunting games out there on the market. I don't think we've even seen a Cabela's title in quite some time and they were more of a mixed bag than anything. Dangerous Hunts wasn't too bad. I also love that there is a Fishing game coming from the folks that did "the Hunter" Call of the wild. This might just be something I pick up. Noticed in the video that you have a Leupold scope. They actually have licensed gear? That's pretty kickass. I want a game where I can hunt rabbits with a beagle where the dog circles the rabbit. I love small game hunting and have yet to see a game properly replicate that.
Pre-Ordered it on PS5, looking forward to it. I’ve played Hunter Call of the Wild, and it’s a good romp, so excited for this too. I’ve been hunting all my life, and these are pretty realistic. Looking forward, thanks for the review!
I love hunting games, will check this one out. I secretly wish hideo kojima would make a hardcore hunting/survival sim. It would be like you need to drink and eat and stuff, your on an large island in the pacific northwest theres a small town you sell your game meat and skins to and buy gear etc all normal and theres a science facility with a wacked secret you wont notice for the first 20 hours.
Eyyy, I’ve always been interested in the calm satisfaction of hunting, but I’m the type who get’s upset when he kills even a particularly big bug, so I’d love to check this out!
Awesome to hear this game together, I’ve gotten more and more excited about this as they’ve gotten closer to release. Was this the PC version exclusively or did you get a chance to test out a console version as well?
An excellent review good sir, but like seriously you put out to the point, no BS amazing consumer/gamer advice reviews and it's some of the best I've seen on RUclips. As for the game, it definitely peaks my interest. I tried theHunter: Call of the Wild, but it felt clunky and boring af. I'd rather go hunting IRL, don't mind waiting for hours on end or stalking and learning the prey over days and many miles.
Thanks man, great review as usual. I really love the variety in the games you review, and even though I’m not a hunter, this looks mighty impressive. It’s on my wishlist for sure. Hope your having a great day bud!
They should delete the hud and have more immersion stuff to it, instead of a compass at the top like skyrim the character pulls out an actual compass, or say how many shots he has left and instead of on screen waypoints you rely on the map
Hope one day they make one where you have a biologist skill tree and you can focus on studying the animals with real world info put into it. Like a BBC documentary as a game.
I loved Call of the Wild but the bugs, weird spawning and tracking animals in circles through rocks and mountains did sour the absolutely gorgeous visuals. Not sure if this is just RUclips compression or something but this game doesn't look quite as amazing visually as CotW (the areas look gorgeous though) but if it gets your praise for all the rest (along with the visuals) I will definitely add this one to my library. As always thanks for the great reviews!
Thank you for checking out our game, we're so happy you're enjoying it!
Battle Royale and zombie horde mode when? 🤔
PLEASE do a fishing game next!
@@northernnightmare7986 honestly a Halloween event that last for a day or 2 would be kind of fun. Like hunting Bigfoot or something silly
@@germansherman3839 My comment was facetious but that would be an amazing idea.
Going to be my first hunting game and think I have chosen well 👍🏼
Changed score to wait. Sadly at hour 43 the game had a game killing bug and I can pretty much recreate it.

There is a very odd binoc bug that jiggles when your in sloped spots. So be warned of that. Only got it twice but it sucks and I informed the dev of that and one other one.

This is the review I've been waiting for!!!! Love it
i hope you did notify them of the bug, lets see how fast they act.
Please pin your comment to the top.
Thanks for the review!
This is the kind of thing you can use to introduce someone who would never normally play games, to gaming. My grandfather would have loved this.
So true
My grandpa was huge hunter and he use to play some of the old Cabela's hunting games, he would of loved this

One of the only RUclips reviewers that:
1. Reviews this game at all.
2. Approaches it with actual knowledge of the subject matter.
Really excited about this. My ultimate dream hunting game--minus realistic hunting of dinosaurs and megafauna--would be a combination of The Hunter, Ultimate Fishing Simulator and Snow Runner.
That sounds amazing. Fishing, mudding and hunting in one game. Perfect.
Would a rifle take down a t-rex though?
@@connorkenway09 Absolutely. The rifle in Jurassic Park 2 would have drilled right through its skull. The rifles in Jurassic Park 3 were even bigger--Barret .50 bmg's.

Eric trump the T. rex Hunter! 😂
Loved the chapter markers in this review. Really helped bounce around the video to get to the parts I cared about.

This is pretty unique. Not my thing as I don’t have the time or patience for it, but tons of respect for this work.
The DLC should be a "public land hunt" where every time you open the map, it's procedurally generated and has a 1 in 20 chance of loading game with it. There will also be 5:1 npc hunters spawned within 2 miles of any road.
I hate how accurate this is.
Don't forget the game warden comming to give you tickets for having to many round in your rifle

My favourite map in Call of the wild is the german/central european map. Hope they would have something similar. Love to play in familiar atmosphere.
Oh my God. They modeled the fact that if you don't look through your scope at the correct angle you just see black. I'm sold. Reminds me of the 90s Cabela's games kinda.
Enjoyed messing around with Hunter: COTW, but this looks like it has the edge on that. Think I'll pick this one up
I once had a 5 point buck carrying a howitzer shoot back at me. I didn't get it on video though.

As is often the case this was not on my radar until you highlighted it. Eloquent as always, a breath of fresh mountain air. Cheers.
I dont get why in 2022 we still dont have any multiplayer shooters looking anything close to this. Look at this environment, its breathtaking.

I also love that there is a Fishing game coming from the folks that did "the Hunter" Call of the wild.
This might just be something I pick up. Noticed in the video that you have a Leupold scope. They actually have licensed gear? That's pretty kickass. I want a game where I can hunt rabbits with a beagle where the dog circles the rabbit. I love small game hunting and have yet to see a game properly replicate that.
Yep I’m buying it based on your review. As a hunter who really was gunshot moving on from cow. I’m happy to get this upgrade.
Holy wank I was not expecting this good of a review. Been playing cotw for over a year but this is my next game now
Pre-Ordered it on PS5, looking forward to it. I’ve played Hunter Call of the Wild, and it’s a good romp, so excited for this too. I’ve been hunting all my life, and these are pretty realistic. Looking forward, thanks for the review!
I'm both shocked and ecstatic you chose to review this game!!
I love hunting games, will check this one out. I secretly wish hideo kojima would make a hardcore hunting/survival sim. It would be like you need to drink and eat and stuff, your on an large island in the pacific northwest theres a small town you sell your game meat and skins to and buy gear etc all normal and theres a science facility with a wacked secret you wont notice for the first 20 hours.
That would be dope - survival hunting mixed with metal gear 3 camo system
Great review. Looks an awesome game. Never liked the idea of hunting games but this looks interesting.
Great to hear. I love HCOTW but it’s been stagnant.
0:48 was that a cloud with horns? God damn!
I needed this Karek. Thank you.
yep!
I'm not a fan of these kind of games
and probably not going to get it.
But really awesome to see devs put a lot of love into the game.
Eyyy, I’ve always been interested in the calm satisfaction of hunting, but I’m the type who get’s upset when he kills even a particularly big bug, so I’d love to check this out!
I absolutely love this game and have all the dlcs. The maps are amazing and I just haven’t stopped playing it.
Awesome to hear this game together, I’ve gotten more and more excited about this as they’ve gotten closer to release. Was this the PC version exclusively or did you get a chance to test out a console version as well?
Negative
@@ACGreviews Fair enough, cheers and happy gaming!
An excellent review good sir, but like seriously you put out to the point, no BS amazing consumer/gamer advice reviews and it's some of the best I've seen on RUclips.
As for the game, it definitely peaks my interest. I tried theHunter: Call of the Wild, but it felt clunky and boring af. I'd rather go hunting IRL, don't mind waiting for hours on end or stalking and learning the prey over days and many miles.
Piques*
I have like 1000 hours in call of the wild. Bought the elite edition at cdkeys weeks ago. Thank god they nailed it.
Great review! Question, can you fully rebind the keyboard key bindings? This is the #1 issue is have with most games.
Man this is exactly what i was looking for! Hunting games always had something lacking! Looks like this will be fun!
Been wanting to get into hunting game here lately. This review was what I needed. Thanks for the great review
Cant wait to get. Havent played a hunting game since the days of hunting dinosaurs and I plan to change that.
Imagine a Bigfoot Quest? That would be a Day 1 from me.
Thanks man, great review as usual. I really love the variety in the games you review, and even though I’m not a hunter, this looks mighty impressive. It’s on my wishlist for sure. Hope your having a great day bud!
They should delete the hud and have more immersion stuff to it, instead of a compass at the top like skyrim the character pulls out an actual compass, or say how many shots he has left and instead of on screen waypoints you rely on the map
You can turn off hud completely. It was in some of their videos.
Hope one day they make one where you have a biologist skill tree and you can focus on studying the animals with real world info put into it. Like a BBC documentary as a game.
Awesome review like always dude hmm I have been wanting for. A long time to try a hunting game and this sounds like the one thanks you
About time we got another actual hunting experience. Share the tradition Elk > Beef
I loved Call of the Wild but the bugs, weird spawning and tracking animals in circles through rocks and mountains did sour the absolutely gorgeous visuals. Not sure if this is just RUclips compression or something but this game doesn't look quite as amazing visually as CotW (the areas look gorgeous though) but if it gets your praise for all the rest (along with the visuals) I will definitely add this one to my library.
As always thanks for the great reviews!
New patch on console cleaned up every issue I had with the game. Fantastic job by the devs.
Thanks for the great review! I’ve had high hopes of this game since it was announced. Glad it turned out to be exactly what I wanted!
Hey Karak great review! Can you tell me what fps this runs at on ps5?
