Hunt: Showdown

Honestly, I can’t say anything bad about this game. I recently have gotten into the extraction genres. I purchased the 1896 release. Graphics even on the PS5 are absolutely stunning. Wish there was more ads for this title. I found this game per google and steam reviews. I got one love the realism about the game so maybe I’m oneof the exceptions who personally love the new bullet drop. It’s a good learning curve and something I’m used to with other titles. The shooting range is amazing. Most games I play especially FPS do not have this and it baffles me. Not only that, probably the best shooting range out of any game. When I get off the game I can’t wait to log back in. Everyday I find more and more things I didn’t know previously about Hunt, the (TIPS) Apertures, the search menu with traits, prestige, throwing lanterns at horses, choke bombs on poison, pinging distance with scopes and spy glass. It’s ridiculous. It’s funny because I actually thought to myself; wow I wish I could ping the distance, tried it with scope and was wowed. The different pacts comparability’s with other traits, listening for map boss with dark vision. It’s insane. The only downside I can think of is that I’m red/green colorblind and their are zero options for this. My teammates will ping a location for a character/hunter and I see nothing. I heard they used to have shades but it made for exploits. Wish they just had a slight differential for the different colorblind types, especially mine which starts with a D lol. I’ve noticed in some games that I rubberband seldomly, compounds can raise frame rates. But it tends to do this and then doesn’t for the rest of my night. Like I said, seldomly. I give this game a 10.5 out of 10. It’s thought of things I couldn’t have. I would have a slight issue with fire damage, although realistically this is how it should be and it makes for disposing on other hunters easier especially while playing solo. I’ve jumped and almost knocked my table over more times than I can count. First game where I need to strictly play through sounds. It makes it the most immersive gameplay I’ve ever had. Feels like your there. The game can be punishing but it was designed this way. It has a big learning curve but they isolate this with a pretty decent MMR system. The animations, the reality of this game. It’s French kiss. I have almost completely stopped playing my other games. I wouldn’t be against them releasing a midievil title like this. Sword and shield vs demons and other crusaders. I would never put it down. Slightly smaller maps mixed with bows, shields for defense. But mainly upclose combat. Maybe buff health 1.5 times to make it more engaging. Smoke bombs to disperse for quick escapes. Fire bombs right before drinking a salve skin antidote or pouring something over the head of the Crusader. Just pitching ideas here. Maybe mix in a little magic. A temporary defensive bubble that is temporary for escapes or to give enough time to reach for a 2h sword or splash some salve skin on. To see these animations unfold like the bullet loading and spear throwing. Wow sure would be awesome, huh? Anyway this is an older title and it keeps breaking boundaries and keeps its player base and still expands. Game is brilliant. Not my pitched idea, well sure mine is too. lol but Hunt Showdown:1896. Absolute stunning and heart stopping immersive game. I want to see someone play with a heart monitor and stream this. Anyway 10.5/10. Only thing that I ask is that they get some sort of better anti-cheat. I myself, haven’t encountered this or even know if I have. But this would be the downfall of this game. One love.

Hunt showdown is the best extraction shooter PVP game you can experience, slow but intense combats,PVE is challenging and could be a problem when facing other players, Weapons are well balanced you can die to the cheapest weapon on the game on a multiple occasions which adds fun to the game.
