The story is straightforward, revolving around a traumatic hunting experience that haunts the protagonist, adding depth to the gameplay. While it diverges from traditional hunting game narratives, offering a mix of survival and first-person shooter elements, it may not satisfy purists seeking a purely hunting-focused experience. Overall, the storyline is engaging enough to enhance the game's appeal, despite not being groundbreaking.
“The storyline was great.”
“A little more challenging than the last game and still has a great storyline.”
“Not only is it substantially more difficult than the previous games, but the type of storyline is different (rather strange at that) and it is not what I expected after playing the previous games.”
“The story is straightforward and simple enough: you and your brother's daughter start off as young kids, your father takes you hunting, he gets killed by a bear, and you're pretty much haunted by it for the rest of the game. It's not Oscar material, but it's a video game, so what would you expect?”
“Not only is it substantially more difficult than the previous games, but the type of storyline is different (rather strange at that) and it is not what I expected after playing the previous games.”
“If you're looking for just a pure hunting game, this may not be what you're looking for. They've taken a hunting game and turned it into a first-person shooter, as the animals will be charging you most of the time and you'll have to survive the attack.”

The graphics in the game are generally well-received, with users noting that they are "not half bad" and contribute positively to the overall experience. However, some players find the shooting mechanics a bit unstable, which can detract from the immersion. While the visuals are decent, the game is more of a first-person shooter with hunting elements rather than a traditional hunting simulator.
“The graphics are impressive and enhance the overall experience.”
“The visuals are stunning and really bring the game to life.”
“Good graphics overall.”
“The graphics are a little off when shooting; the practice shooting lines are not too stable, but the game overall is okay.”
“The graphics aren't half bad either, but if you're looking for a pure hunting game, this may not be what you're looking for.”
“The visuals feel outdated and lack the detail expected from modern games, making the overall experience less immersive.”
