I'm also interested in peoples thoughts on pro's and con's , the aesthetics look appealing to me, but I dont want something which I enjoy looking at but dont enjoy actually playing.

looks like a lovely game to chillout to. Was just looking on Steam reviews, yes I know they can be toxic...but seems to be an early trend of bugs, glitches and unoptimised performance.
I'd love to hear some honest opinions from you guys before I delve in.

I'll be looking into this, payed a subscription for the original but werent into it enough or liking the idea of subscribing to justify paying each year.
Don't have as much time for this type of game these days but with a one off payment I dont mind giving it a chance.

Been playing it most of the night, still a bit on the fence, quite enjoyed the old one, while the new one certainly does have the same "feel" I cant help but feel like i'm shooting fish in a barrel half the time.
I'll stalk down a deer, following its trails, finally line up the shot, i'll kill it, but as soon as i take that shot, it seems like the entire population of the forest is within a hundred metres or so of the kill, I can get a couple of deer and a bear in one small area, so far it just seems far too easy and far too much large game in such a small area.
That said, it sure is a pretty game, i got into the prone, and found myself staring at the pretty flora more than the fauna... the sounds in general and the rain is really well done, and go a huge way in making it very atmospheric.
I think if they tone down the huge overpopulation it will be brilliant, but at the moment it feels less like a hunt and more like a trip down to the zoo...

Yeh, i heard in the original game, you could stalk a single animal for hours, thats how it should be, mind you i think its partly made for console in mind, most players want instant action and stuff to happen quickly, loads of post on steam complaining about this.

Ended up getting it on steam today, tried to change graphics resolution from 1920x1080 to 3840x2160 or something higher than 1080 and it crashes and sends a crash report.

I would imagine this would be amazing in VR.
970M @ 1080p likely to be playable?

should be okay probably if turn some settings down.once you turn stuff up fps takes a hit.when you see the areas though you know why.stunning.
been recording most of day so new video up soon.

No 21:9 support for UI (icons off screen) I'm out.
Would have made a great uw game

Enjoying it despite the annoying bug of clipping the tips and icons off the side of a widescreen monitor, hopefully that gets sorted soon.
Really hope they drop the level requirement for equipment as well as currently it's rather crazy, the paywall to buy stuff is more than enough without a level req as well.
Graphically and audibly it's fantastic, a great basis to build a fab long term game on

Played the tutorial tonight and whilst I'm struggling a bit with the game itself, it's incredibly immersive. I found the graphics much better after applying 2 x dsr in the nvidia control panel.
I find the glowing footprints a bit silly and whilst I understand they can be turned off, there's no way I would pick out footprints in the undergrowth without them on!!

So you saying we have to pay for the game, then there is a paywall as well, i did not see any paid dlc on steam store page myself.Enjoying it despite the annoying bug of clipping the tips and icons off the side of a widescreen monitor, hopefully that gets sorted soon.
