StickSkills said, "Of course, Far Cry 3 is much more than just a pretty face. This open-world journey through the jungle is filled to the brim with compelling content that’s begging to be played, and while the story never quite realizes the potential established in the intriguing premise, it’s difficult to think of a reason to not play this December blockbuster. Ubisoft has managed to fit a full shooter campaign into one of the largest open worlds ever conceived – giving players a more guided experience to enjoy when not collecting pelts or driving through the perilous roads of the wild. Far Cry 3 has the personality that’s been lacking in this tropical franchise, and that results in a game you’ll want to spend some serious time with. Grab a bow, holster your pistol and take this plunge into insanity."
Following a series of repetitive games, a formulaic approach, and a disappointing last entry, the Far Cry series has been run into the ground.
The trouble with most criticisms of this franchise is that they insist Far Cry 3 was the best game, but the things they claim to hate about the franchise are all the elements that 3 introduced.
Ubisoft gets a lot of hate for their content filling of maps. Personally I enjoy the mechanic when i play an open world game I like revealing hte entire map and doing all the side mission stuff before i go into main missions. Far Cry and the RPG AC maps where a joy to play.
Far Cry 2 was soo unique ... it was ahead of its time and is often misunderstood (thank you Clint Hocking, can't wait for his next game Assassins Creed Hexe)
(yes, FC2 was a departure from from FC1, so in strictest sense, Crysis 1 & 3 are the truer successors)
I actually enjoyed Far Cry 5 and New Dawn. Far Cry 6 was a joke. It was a step backwards in every way. That was probably the worst Far Cry I have ever played.
Far Cry 3, an open-world masterpiece that redefined the series. Gameplay and storyline makes it a timeless classic that still inspires today.
It's gotta be Far Cry 2 for me, the feeling of that game I'm still yet to find again, just everything about it, I'd kill for a remaster, I'd even be happy with just a bump in resolution and frame rate, occasionally go back to it, think I'm gunna have to do just that now 😂
There have been plenty of great villains in video games over the years. Now it's time for the VGU crew to name a few of their favorites.
