JoeTheDestroyer's Grizzly Valley review

Are you proud of that tagline?

ARE YOU?

If it made you use caps, then yes.

Haha, I love a cringe-worthy pun. :) Also, nice review.

Thanks, Marc!

Thanks, Marc!

You didn't use caps.

As someone playing GTA V right now, I've had it up to here with "nature runs amuck". Can't walk 20 steps in some area without getting assaulted by a cougar. On the west coast, are those bastards that prevalent? Seems I'd have heard about it if 5000 hikers per year got savaged!

No, not at all. Encounters are uncommon. Most cougars are skittish and realize humans = guns, so they run away. Others only attack if they feel threatened or they're desperate, and even then they mostly attack kids. I've only heard of two in this area: one involved a kid agitating a cougar at a zoo, the other was a hungry one that nabbed a kid out of his front yard and drug him up a tree (both survived).

Lol, that's what I figured. Damn RockStar liking the "WHEN ANIMALS ATTACK!" aspect of Red Dead Redemption and deciding it needed to be in the GTA series, too, even if it was nearly completely out of place. I mean, I didn't expect that the average cougar would run 500 yards across hill and dale to savage a gun-wielding guy on a hike, but just recently I switched to Trevor, found myself on top of Mount Gordo with no vehicle and had to kill three of them while hiking to a campsite with a truck.
