Like  hinted at, you can ultimately go as pulpy or as gritty as whatever you feel like. Stone-age shenanigans lends well to the latter because even with the latest in grug technology, a mundane bear or a particularly cold-ass night is still going to be capable of slapping your shit, but it also works well with high-magic animism stuff because of how many more gaps there are in a typical grug's knowledge of how the universe works, and there's plenty of room for ambiguity between the two. Is the giant creature that felled your entire tribe an envoy of some ancient destructive spirit, or is it just some migrating megafauna? Only way to find out is with sharp volcano rock tied to blessed stick. <|endoftext|>
