Hiking Simulator 2018

[u][b]About the game[/b][/u] A singleplayer game set in an area full of snow and mountains. There is a chance to encounter wolfs and bears. You can play the game with either keyboard and mouse or with a controller. [i][b]The bad things[/b][/i] [b]The character[/b] The character in this game looks like something made in the late 90's. There is no character creation. You can't even chose if you want to play as a man or a woman. He have no backpack on, which seems a bit weird, compared to the fact that he is in the middle of nowhere all alone for days (small thing, yes. But still). [b]The graphics[/b] The graphic is terrible in some parts of the game, while it can be quite beautiful in other parts. The trees have no textures. The snow is squared some places. The ''caves'' seem so out of place, that you can locate them from far away. From a distance the bears in this game looks worse than the bears from the old tomb raider games (PS1).

HS2018 plays like an Early Access game that is is not finished. It seems thrown-together. Hostile animals attack you with no means of defense. I tried it, but fighting bears and boars with kicking is ridiculous. I don't think there are any weapons to be found. I looked at the forums for help- there are 11 posts and the most recent is Aug 12, 2019. It is an advertisement for a cookstove. The forum is so dead no one even reported it. EDIT- I reported the ad post and it has been removed, so there's that- at least something works LOL Visually, the game looks good, but that aspect is incomplete as well. I ran the game on "Ultra" with a very nice system- I7 processor, 1080Ti, 32GB RAM. Glitchy shadows with that moving sawtooth edge! There is no movement to the aurora. Animals are not optimized- they seem disconnected from the ground. I cannot recommend this as a casual game, a survival game, or a simulator at all.

AMAZING GAME....... 10/10 would buy. The wildlife blew my mind, the attention to detail is remarkable. the birds are kind of ♥♥♥♥♥ tho, no need to ever go outside again this game has it all from giant brids to demonic burnt bacon like creatures. WISH I COULD HAVE PAID FULL PRICE! im buying it for my aunt as her dying wish.... its that good (sound track is top notch) the Aurora Borealis is worth the search it only took me 81 minutes. my girlfriend said she was going to leave me if i dont stop playing this game..... I CANT STOP SEND HELP... the snow crunch is supper realistic. overall a great time.

Kind of pretty in spaces. You can play either seeing your character or with a first person view. At it's dark heart this is a hiking sim filled with mountains to climb, trees to see, and cute little bunnies. Aw. Too bad the bears hate you. So do the wolves and boars. Most of the animals are dangerous, but it's more that type of game. I didn't like that at first, but amazingly you can outrun charging bears and wolves. Ditto the boars, though those suckers will chase you. I hit the statue that shall hereafter be called Freyr's temple and got chased. Could a tame mode be added? It's had to admire models I'm fleeing. Thanks for fixing the fall instadeath from the first game though. Map is huge, trust me, it is.

Hiking Simulator 2018 is an exploration-focused simulation game developed and published by Shoho Games that approaches the outdoor adventure concept from an unusual angle. Instead of emphasizing realistic survival systems, difficult environmental management, or highly structured objectives, the game builds itself around the simple idea of exploring a massive winter landscape at your own pace. It is a title that values atmosphere and discovery over constant action, creating an experience designed more for players who enjoy wandering through virtual spaces than those looking for traditional gameplay progression. At its core, Hiking Simulator 2018 places players inside an enormous snow-covered wilderness filled with forests, mountains, open fields, wildlife, and hidden locations waiting to be uncovered. The game avoids forcing players into a rigid structure. There are no complicated mission systems constantly directing movement or demanding rapid progression. Instead, the environment itself becomes the primary attraction, encouraging curiosity and rewarding players who choose to explore beyond obvious paths. One of the most noticeable strengths of the experience comes from scale. Th…
