Hunt: Showdown was one of the best games, yet a bit outdated.
Hunt: Showdown 1896 is surpassing the first statement.


Pros, cons and something in between:

+++ Overall the variety of weapons/tools/consumables and their modifications, different bullet types, perks, hunters, map(s) and all the angles, sound importance, classic and wild bosses, mobs and special mobs, being able to get premium currency by playing, that's the Hunt we love and 1896 gave it a new shiny coat.
+ New/updated engine is a step from past closer to the present time, game and UI looks visually better and is more adapted to controls, loading times are (or seems to be) shortened

+/- Only difference between hunter skins seems to be just name of their rarity, correct me if I'm wrong.
/ Minor understandable bugs, but devs care to correct them. Yes, I said understandable bugs.

- Even tho menu looks better and more modern, it lacks simplicity compared to old version of Hunt and is confusing at the moment. Player almost clicks more times in a menu than in a match. Yeah, there are shortcuts, we know. Luckily, update's gonna improve it (easier equipping items on hunters)
