Decided I might as well hunt down the last two trophies. One of which was Kanda of Faith. Wow I thought other leaps from waterfalls were a bit risky in game but that one actually made my stomach physically lurch - not very good with heights but not too many games have almost knotted the guts. Oddly I can recall feeling a bit similiar in one scene in Just Cause 2. Something about looking down from that skyscraper. Anyway this time I was positive half way down I had messed it up big time and was in for a bit of Primal headbanging of the most permanent and painful variety but I landed in the pool ok possibly due to a little in game scripting - I am not sure.
Anyway have to say it was a memorable experience did anyone else feel it that way?
Poor wee Dhole pet got it in the neck next so I could skin him for my final trophy. Putting in that one is just so evil of Ubi, but I guess it also says something about players of games - pretend empathy with non-existent critters only goes so far when compared to mission completion.
Thanks Ubi_Jax nice bit of landscaping did not even see that hole properly until I thought I was missing it. Then that momentary plunge into the dark as the walls passed you by worked brilliantly for me.
Real impact in any sort of art always comes in my opinion from contrast: in that case from the wide open sky to that narrow aperture. Now I just have to get those last few collectables in some caves not that keen on overly enclosed spaces either but I have braved a few real world caves even squeezed through a few gaps although always on well trodden routes. Still, swimming in the dark underground would be another issue.
Speaking of memorable Primal moments getting ambushed in the dark water of a cave by a crocodile I am not gonna forget that one too soon either. Stupidlly I had been thinking some of these caves could do with a bit more resident wildlife on occasion despite the change of pace when it happened. Yes folks before I started mashing the buttons I did jump in my seat.
OK, I found it this morning after logging in. I'm standing there right now as I type. My question is this, why in the hell would I want to jump off a cliff for sure death?
Edit: Well, jump complete and achievement received. I didn't see that water until I thought I was near death. lol I guess that one dude lost faith and missed?![]()
Patch put in a marker. I had to go online to see where it was on a map although I strove to avoid any other spoilers prior to leaping. I guess that you cannot see where you will end up is very much why it is a leap of faith. Perhaps in game someone should mention this leap as a ritual challenge or something of that nature, then again maybe someone did and I missed the reference due to some other less worthy preoccupation. If I did not know about the trophy I would probably not have tried that leap as it does seem a leap to certain death even though I enjoy leaping off waterfalls - in game.
Trophy is called 'The Kanda of Faith' playing Primal on PS4 I thought Steam however helped to get the trophy thing rolling or am I wrong? Do not normally care about these things do not consider myself of the trophy hunting generation as in I play games for the fun of playing them I do not care about online bragging rights to me that means nothing. I just wanted to do the whole game and I actually do enjoy leaping off stuff in game. Having said the last about trophies if hunting such makes people happy that is their business and right I am not criticising just stating where I am coming from. Hell sometimes you can get too defensive posting on forums worrying about all the ways an honest opinion can be misread.
