Good morning
Far Cry Primal is set in Europe in the Stone Age. The game says its 10.000BC, but its unlikely.
The game has you play as a cro-magnon western hunter-gatherer (the people in the pics below) and fight against Neanderthals (also pics below) and neolithic farmers.
Both the HGW and neanderthals in the game have light eyes, the first having dark skin and dreadlocks, and the second light skin and big bodies. They are cannibals as well and live in the frigid north.
Obviously this is a game, and there is a lot of fiction/fantasy in it. The farmers are basically Aztecs and burn people to a Sun god.
But nevertheless Im curious to see what people think about this, since it isnt everyday that these sorts of people get represented in games or movies. Needless to say the game is lots of fun. You can hunt, kill people with wolves and saberthoots and spread your tribe around the map. Truly a cave man simulator.

This Neanderthal girl looks nice, like one of my photoshops where I have increased the distance between the nose and the mouth and made the nose wider:
Except she should have higher canthal tilt and lower orbits, and the lips should be thicker to match the nigga nose:
These Neanderthals probably look too white though, and they should have more SSA-like morphology, or at least their lips should be thicker. The split between Neanderthal-Denisovans and Sapiens is only about twice as old as the split between Capoids and non-Capoids, so maybe Neanderthals didn't look that different from Sapiens.
In the paper titled "Reconstructing Denisovan Anatomy Using DNA Methylation Maps", Neanderthals and Denisovans are depicted as having more inward-slanted orbits than modern humans (https://www.sciencedirect.com/scienc...92867419309547). If it is accurate, maybe Neanderthals also had higher canthal tilt than modern humans.

In my opinion, I think the characters look pretty equal as the elder species. However I would say that the Neanderthals are a bit taller than the real ones, and their voices are too thick (Neanderthals are thought to have had very thin voices)

This Neanderthal chick also has a good subnasale-stomion:stomion-menton ratio (showthread.php?334136-Good-explanation-why-long-philtrums-and-short-noses-are-superior):
Here's a progressivized/Indo-Europeanized version with lower prognathism, a longer and more downturned nose with a higher nasal bridge, and a longer and more protruding chin:

Appearance-wise, the character models look similar to early modern humans with the dark skin and variable skin/eye color. As well as the morphological build of neanderthals.
Hence, the appearance/depiction is quite accurate.

“The most merciful thing in the world, I think, is the inability of the human mind to correlate all its contents. We live on a placid island of ignorance in the midst of black seas of infinity, and it was not meant that we should voyage far. The sciences, each straining in its own direction, have hitherto harmed us little; but some day the piecing together of dissociated knowledge will open up such terrifying vistas of reality, and of our frightful position therein, that we shall either go mad from the revelation or flee from the light into the peace and safety of a new dark age.”
