Latin in Far Cry

Far Cry Primal is a game that takes you back to the stone age. Since it is the stone age the game designers couldn't use English as it wasn't a thing at that time. So when designing the game, the game designers used Proto-Indo-European as their language. Proto-Indo-European is one of the precursors of Latin, German, and many other languages. The game designers modified the archaic language for the purposes of the game, but the base of the language stays the same. It is cool how old languages like Proto-Indo-European still shows up in modern times and that it has a connection to so many of our present day languages.
