Oh man I like the look of this, and I'm glad to see the series
going places after the rather straightforward FC4. Tho I can't tell if this is a Blood Dragon-esque standalone or if it'll be a fully-fleshed-out full-priced title. Seeing as bow and knife have been my preferred weapons in the last few FC games this won't necessarily be all that different gameplaywise, but I'm very excited about the setting, and I love the fact that you can't understand a word being said in the trailer.

They should try fixing the ridiculous forced widescreen that ruined FC4 first.
Jason Moyer on 6/10/2015 at 19:07
There are people not playing in widescreen in 2015?

Inasmuch as living up to the title goes, that is indeed quite a far cry.

Well all I can say is that it didn't ruin it for me.

Yes. Didn't you watch the trailer in the OP?

I was thinking this would be more of a Blood Dragon-scale release at first. But by the time this comes out, it will have been about 14 months since FC4 was released, and there were only about five months between the reveal trailer for that one and the game's debut.
On the other hand, there were a whole two years between FC3 and FC4 even with the recycling of a lot of assets. I wonder if Ubi is leapfrogging dev teams like they do with their other flagship series.

Didn't see clairvoyant icons tagging every possible enemy location, nor omniscient maps shepherding the player around, am cautiously interested.

Well it's a very cinematic trailer, of course they've stripped out all the HUD elements. I'm betting the omniscient map, enemy indicators, and most of the other mainstays of The Ubisoft Game will be present. I'm ok with that tho. I like that game.

Dammit. On the one hand, a caveman game is something I've wanted to see for years.
On the other hand, I'm not even slightly excited about playing the inevitable parkour caveman with GPS and spending most of my time climbing tall trees and rocks so I can scout the location of 100 collectible sabertooth tusk effigies or whatever. Wonder how they'll shoehorn in binocular enemy tagging... probably "your heightened adrenaline hunting senses allow you to zoom and mark enemy pheremone signatures".
Plus the casual racism probably gets a pass if they're cavemen.
