So I’ve been playing Valkyrie a lot, super fun to play as her especially with her Hammer, and I’ve been playing God of War 4 (Norse Mythology one). It got me thinking of a cool mechanic that could work in this game in a sense. “What if you were able to recall a thrown weapon?” This isn’t something too groundbreaking but it would be a cool detail to the game, but let me explain…
So when playing God of War, the weapon you use for the beginning half of the game is called the “Leviathan Axe” which I want to say is similar to the Battle Axe in Hunting Grounds. Anyways Kratos (our main character) is able to throw this axe and call upon it by holding his hand to the side awaiting its return, similar to how Thor from the Marvel Cinematic Universe calls upon his hammer/battle axe. Granted there was a magical component for weapon, hence why they were able to have the weapon return and not harm the user. Now how would this work in Predator Hunting Grounds without magic, well it could boil down to a simple science solution being Magnetization.
How this would work is for the Predator to wear a Gauntlet or a circular device wrapped around the palm of the Predator. From there when the Predator recalls the weapon (whatever button that may be, maybe the reload button), it would send a magnetic pull that could only pull the material that the weapon is made of with enough force to recall the weapon. Now the question is what weapons could be considered not only throwable, but also recallable:
•Norse Hammer “Whosoever holds this hammer, if he be worthy, shall possess the power of Thor” I’m sorry I had to say it🤣
•Battle Axe
•Combi Stick
•Bow Bolts near your area
What do you guys think? Personally i think this would also help players who accidentally throw their combi stick out or under the map by accident.
