We'll see how smart you talk with a mouthful of Angry Bees :argh:

bees do poo poo damage, they're just a damage over time thing and can be negated if the enemy jumps in water or is near smoke.....which happens a lot.

here are the rules for Far Cry Primal

If the weapon/ability sounds cool it's generally useless(i.e. taming mammoths, bees)

All the end level weapons take too long to make and are not that good as the lesser incarnations, the preferred weapons are the next to last or next next to last version of it. Mostly because they're around the same power level and they require much less materials to make and take almost no rare materials in many instances.

Just use cats or wolves for beast taming don't bother with anything else, generally cats are better. For whatever reason any other type of non-cat creature tends to get stuck in game geometry or has weird pathing issues

It's pretty much like dishonored where 95% of the abilities are useless and you're just going to use one major ability which is anything relating to throwing projectiles. Pets are mostly meat shields.

So, I guess you have it then?

How's the melee combat if there even is any? I was expecting a game without much in the way of ranged weapons save for throwing weapons and bows would have a melee combat system with blocking and counters and all that jazz.

The entire game is the first hour of Skyrim for 8 hours.
