Ubisoft has a new 5-minute trailer to acclimate you to the Mesolithic era of Far Cry Primal. The trailer is effectively narrated by the ever-talented Elias Toufexis. I guess there isn't any bad blood after Ubosoft fired him from Far Cry 3 for sounding too much like Adam Jensen from Deus Ex, because you know, he is, but I digress.
I really like the emphasis on crafting, as living off the land was my favorite part of previous Far Cry games but I felt it was never taken far enough. Here it's just about all you have, when the highest technology available to you is the bow. I also like how the most terrifying enemy is the most advanced rival tribe, because they have mastered fire.
Far Cry Primal still looks just a bit too much like an extensive reskin of Far Cry 4, but I'll probably bite anyway. I've always been fascinated by early humans and there really aren't a lot of games that explore that era of prehistory.
