I picked up Far Cry Primal at $25. Once you get past the directed intro, the outdoor environment is nice, and there is a refreshing minimalist vibe that goes with playing a game with no guns or technology to speak of. I'm not very far into the game, but the initial couple of hours has found me just wanting to walk around, forget about missions for a while, and just look around. That's rare for me. Morrowind and to some extent Skyrim were like that for me, not many other SP titles come to mind. Based on what I've seen so far I'd highly recommend if you want something immersive and different.
