The licensed apparel and firearms make for a more realistic setting, with names instantly recognizable to anyone who hunts as a hobby. The selection of hunting guns is huge, and Hunting Simulator 2 has officially-licensed firearms from companies like Winchester, as well as officially-licensed outdoor gear from outfitters like Browning. There's more than just dogs to add to your hunting lodge: you can purchase gear, new guns, and even bows to spice things up a bit. Each dog breed is specialized for a task: pointers will "point" in the direction of a hidden animal, while retrievers do exactly what their name implies. You start off with a beagle, adept at sniffing out tracks and putting you on the path to a trophy, but you can add more dogs to your kennel as you progress. In fact, it helps build your bond with the canine companions that venture out into the wilderness with you. I'll just get this one out of the way immediately: you can pet the dog. It sacrifices some realism for the sake of quality of life, sure, and it lacks any kind of concrete goals, but at the end of the day, I found Hunting Simulator 2 a fun and oddly relaxing way to spend some time. As a simulation, it does a great job, and as a game, it also succeeds. Plus there are zero bloodstains to contend with, which is another bonus. Hunting Simulator 2 scratches the primordial hunter-itch I didn't know I still had, while allowing me to stalk prey from the comfort of my home office. While I don't go hunting anymore, almost everyone I know is obsessed with it (I still live in Maine), and I have been known to stalk whitetail with a camera rather than a loaded rifle.
