    For the $ this game is worth it on PS5 for sure. However, it does need a thorough bug cleaning on PC and FOV adjustments to stop the reviews from getting hammered.

    My belief is the developer needs to review the "No Man's Sky" syndrome before releasing a buggy game.

    I absolutely love this game and put many hours in it, runs well on the PS5. I had a few issues with blood that was dissapreaing but that is fixed with the recent update. The game is so pretty and very realistic. Can't wait what they add to it.

    This is a good game , yes it has a few bugs that need to be sorted but overall it is good but only if you like the game style. Giving this lower than a 7 would be unjustified and is probably due to the player not understanding what they bought. It’s more sim than arcade so you aren’t going to be running around killing stuff every few minutes. Look at game footage videos / forums toThis is a good game , yes it has a few bugs that need to be sorted but overall it is good but only if you like the game style.

    Hra výborná, ale len do chvíle keď som zistil že sa nedá reštartovať misia ba ani začať úplne odznovu. Išiel som uloviť Hollywooda, postrelil som ho ale nevystopoval. Čo mám akože teraz robit? Chcem misiu hrať odznova a? Nedá sa! Takúto amatérsku chybu ste si mohli odpustiť, páni vývojári…

    Best hunting game, very real and complex. The overall score here is way to low as what it is

    The game makes a fantastic impression at first and second glance. Despite the unintuitive user interface, Way of the Hunter is a beautifully crafted hunting simulator that can rightfully take its place at the top of its genre. [Issue#321]

    If you are into video games and also enjoy hunting, Way of the Hunter is a dream come true for you, as it's an extremely realistic hunting simulation that narrows everything down to the smallest of details, but this is not recommended for those who are impatient and have no knowledge about hunting and being a hunter.

    If Way of the Hunter's $40 price tag feels too steep for a title with some bugs and balancing issues, or if one prefers games that require a little less patience, this game might not be worth the cost. However, Way of the Hunter has got enough promise to warrant a second look once it has a few major updates under its belt.
