I was a little excited when I saw the first trailer last year, but after seeing the new movie last year I’m pretty excited for this new foray into Pandora

      Lol, just rewatched the trailer…you’re right it does look like far cry now that you mention it, but I did like Far Cry Primal with the jungle setting, I bet I’ll enjoy this

    I don’t know. Graphically Ubisoft always delivers. It does look gorgeous.

    But man, the gameplay, the ui even the story (at least what was presented in the trailer) all feel so uninspired.

    I guess I wasn’t really that interested in the franchise itself, but the game does not look as outstanding, as the first movie did, back when it came out.

    With the caveat that I haven’t seen the trailer yet, I heard this is a first person game and initial feeling was slightly disappointed because I do prefer third person plus I want to see my Avatar dammit. But a chance to play in Pandora? Will definitely keep an eye on it.

      Yes it is a first person shooter. I think 3rd person would be better as well, kind of similar to horizon games, because I would asume a avatar would use besides the bow and guns as well a melee weapon. And yes, want to see the avatar as well. This game is maybe like far cry on pandora

    Kind of mixed feelings. There were parts of the trailer I really liked and it reminded me a lot of Horizon Forbidden West… And then I realised Ubisoft was involved and it’s obviously based on Far Cry.

    I want to like it but I’ll see how the reviews go.

    I have very low trust into Ubisoft and this one as well, because so many employees left. They will likely fall into their management dictated formulaic open world devoid of creative decisions.

    The world looked gorgeous, the first part of the trailer had me really excited, and then it turned out it was first person.

    Sorry, but exploration/open world in first person is not my thing (unless its VR), especially the really rough parkour bits they showed.
