I would have much preferred dinosaurs. When Ubisoft was asking people what they'd like to see in the next game and dinosaurs was an option, I came up with a loose idea for it (not original). Basically it's kind of like Arthur Conan Doyle's The Lost World where a giant underground eco system is discovered where dinosaurs hadn't been wiped out and are living in this eco system with a tribe of humans who discovered the place hundreds of years before and never left. Group of explorers (Indy types) discover the location themselves and one turns out to be a spy for evil corporation who wants to capture, exploit, and experiment on dinosaurs. They come in and set up shop in this place building outposts, buildings, etc. Main character has to stop them, works with the local tribes, they teach him how to control dinosaurs which allows you to use them as attack weapons or mounts. Start small and work your way right up to possibly having a T-Rex mount. You can also use vehicles. Mixture of different weapons from tribal types to firearms.
Basically the thing about the farcry games is they're all the same gameplay but with different stories and maybe slightly different features. So this would more or less be a dinosaur reskin.
