    I mean.. look I couldn't kill an animal in real life but I think there's a pretty massive difference, morally, between a game that depicts something the human race did for thousands of years to survive (and something some people still do).

    Firstly let me say that I have no personal opinion on the morals of this game one way or the other.

    The problem with your argument here is that hunting and killing animals is legal, hunting and killing humans is illegal.

    There's lots of things I or other forum members may find particularly distasteful or 'wrong', that are legal in various countries.
    There are a number of games dealing with things I personally object to, but if they are legal activities in the country in which I live then as a member of society I have to accept that they occur.

    I think in general, the topic of what's right or wrong in games or any other media is a minefield of contradictory laws, regulations and guidelines.

    I did a lot of fishing in my younger age and quite successful i might add , every single fish i ever caught was cooked and became a meal and it was delicious. The meat you eat was alive at some point ... If you hunt for spot and let your kills go to waste then yes it is morally bad , but if you hunt and eat i see no issue at all .

    You are right GTA definitely needs canibalism official update, not just some lousy mod.

    So is the division2 but at least what im shooting at ie. criminals... can shoot back, while this is graphically a good game....in my opinion the game is based on a sport that causes stress too and involves killing innocent creatures that can not defend them selves just for a trophy which is why i would never purchase this game or anything similar.

    Am I the only one here that thinks we need a game just like this, only, on alien planets; hunting wild alien animals?

    Time to register some IP, methinks.

    It's a fairly good looking game, but very demanding gpu wise for what it is.

    I played it for an hour or so when it was first released, it seemed to place a lot of importance on the tracking and stalking parts.
    I wouldn't describe it as an all action game. I got bored before I killed anything and haven't played it since.
    And, from memory, as has been said, it seemed unusually heavy on GPU usage.
