This is a game that you have to be willing to put time aside for, to practice and learn the mechanics. Yes, there are animals a plenty, as long as you don't constantly run where you travel. You encounter far more animals than in real life, I've had experience in both this game and real hunting. You also don't end up smelling like the scents you use and need a really intense shower at the end. (I'm a woman so the smells really get to me after a while.) As the appeal with a lot of hunting games, there's plenty of locations you can hunt in that you do not need money to gain access to, and a supreme variety of animals to hunt.

The only complaint that I have is that unless you have money, you're going to be grinding for a while to get those nice weapons and ammo, tents, stands, blinds, etc. Though it keeps the game balanced and I understand why it's there.

This game provides everything I've ever wanted out of a hunting game, to escape for a few hours. For a title released in 2009, that is damn impressive. Definitely recommend if your machine isn't able to run Call of the Wild due to foliage overload, but you still prefer a similar type of experience.
