I was reluctant on getting this because I didn't much care for Far Cry 2...but when I watched more gameplay footage, read more about it, and heard it being described as "Like Skyrim with guns," I was officially sold. #1
It's because Call of Duty made it as popular as it is today and make millions thanks to it, and everyone wants a slice of that pie, instead of doing something original. #1
While it's comforting to learn that they're listening to the gamers, I'm still up in arms about what made them decide to change something that didn't need to be in the first place.
Furthermore, I don't understand their animosity toward those applying modifiers to the PC version to alter the disguise system. They purchased the game, and PC mods have never been a problem before, so why remove the links and make it so they cannot be reposted? Maybe some peopl... #8

I'm not saying Absolution was bad--far from it actually--but it's not as good as it could have been. #3.1
In short, IO Interactive realized too late that they messed up certain elements from past games and don't want to accept responsibility, and instead blame it on the current generation consoles for "limiting the game." I call bullsh*t on that one. #1
How exactly does mapping actions to specific buttons ruin a game? Last I checked, the X button hasn't been used as "Fire Weapon" since the early Playstation 2 days. God forbid you have to use the triggers, like a real weapon. #3.1
