Deer Hunter Game (W98/XP?)
 

I'm not exactly sure if it's specifically a deer hunting game, but it is at least a hunting game. I played it in the early 2000s on either Windows 98 or Windows XP. The graphics were in 2D. There was a shop you could buy stuff from, and the hunter could set up camp. I faintly remember there being choices for buying sleeping bags, etc. There were quicktime events where the game would play a video file with deer running, and you would have to drag a crosshair around to shoot them.

The 2D graphics were a top-down view (?) and there was ambient music of birds chirping (?).

Once the animal was dead, the hunter would see a dead animal with blood splattered on it in the 2D world. That's all I can think of right now, thanks for reading. :hello:

I searched up "Deer Hunter" on Gamefaqs, but the games are so old and obscure there aren't many images out.

Cabela's Big Game Hunter ?

Doesn't look like it. It wasn't actually a shooter view, it was more like top-down 2D.

At least some titles in this series used FMVs as you described

not enough screenshots though, so I couldn't verify if there's 2D map view.

Yeah, the fourth screenshot looks a lot like what I'm talking about. I suppose it's impossible to find the exact game in the series, so I'll say that's as good as it gets. Thanks. :bleh1:
