Far Cry 4 review - MMGN

MMGN writes: There are certain moments that stand out from a narrative point of view, although I’m unsure where Far Cry 4’s plot stands among the open-world greats. There’s a different feeling here, though: Ajay is a likeable character because the game does a superb job of modelling the world around his history, and the game’s primary antagonist lights up the world whenever he’s on screen. Pagan Min is a charismatic and terrifying despot, and he may just be the offspring of Darth Vadar and the Joker. There’s an intimidating sense of anarchy that balances out the regime’s structure, making for a genuinely chilling landscape of conflict. Kyrat is a fascinating place to explore, but you wouldn’t dare ride around unarmed.

Far Cry delivers once again! Good to know theres at least one franchise Ubisoft wont royally screw up.

starchild3833d ago

Some of you are such drama queens.

Ubisoft has had many successful games...
Rayman Origins
Splinter Cell Blacklist
Child of Light
South Park The Stick of Truth
Far Cry 3
AC4 Black Flag
Rayman Legends
Far Cry 4

And these are just some of the recent ones. Now, just because Watch Dogs and AC Unity had some issues and controversy surrounding them we're supposed to believe the sky is falling and Ubisoft can't make a good game and blah blah blah.

Never mind the fact that Watch Dogs and AC Unity are still good games that have pretty good metacritic scores and are enjoyed by many people. Oh, and not to mention that Far Cry 4 is about to come out and is getting amazing review scores and being called one of the best games of the year by quite a few outlets.

Come on, people, let's keep a little perspective here.

TheXgamerLive3833d ago

Damn !!!! Put the whole entire story in the heading why don't ya hahahaha:)

But seriously yes, Far Cry 4 looks tone amazing. I can only what a current gen only version would of played like:)

Not a problem FC4 will rock I'm sure.

LightDiego3833d ago

At least you did one game right Ubisoft.
Child of Light too.

zero_gamer3833d ago

Looking like this will be the first really good game from Ubisoft since AC IV. Can't wait to buy this pre-owned.

late but still a good move, oobi

InUrFoxHole13d ago

Seriously, it's great to see devs add things to older games.

OhReginald14d ago

Sony....you're really letting ubisoft out of all all companies to out class you??? Give us the bloondborne 60 fps patch....ffs

dantesparda14d ago

I second this (Bloodborne 60fps) plus damn, Ubisoft, you're doing great but now the last thing I want youi to do is mae Far Cry Primal 60fps and AC Unity

Profchaos13d ago

Everytime someone asks for a bloodborne patch it gets delayed 1 day.

ETA next century

I_am_Batman13d ago

They know it's gonna cost them sales of the inevitable Remake that'll probably come around the PS6 launch.

raWfodog14d ago

Good news for when, or If, I ever play it. It’s waaay down on my backlog list lol.

P_Bomb14d ago

I like these 60fps patches. Hoping they’ll do Ghost Recon Wildlands someday.

Yi-Long14d ago

Kudos to Ubisoft for once again going back to older titles and then offering a nice upgrade for free. I know the company gets a lot of criticism, in quite a few cases understandable and justified, but in this area of contintued post-launch support for their SP games, they deserve some credit.

Ubisoft Removes Nudity in Silent Far Cry 4 Update (New Info: Changes Reverted)

Update: Ubisoft has acknowledged that the Japanese version of the game, which includes regional censorship, was mistakenly released globally. The company says it has reverted these changes in the game's worldwide branch.

Ubisoft has quietly removed nudity from Far Cry 4 in a recent update, sparking speculation about Tencent’s growing influence on the publisher.

You can murder, mame, and viciously attack people, but anything that deals with showing a body in a natural state whether for titillation or narrative, is some truly terrible thing. We are so weird with our puritan thought process. Feed our bloodlust and fuel our enjoyment for entertainment of simulating acts of harm and murder, but god forbid you see digitized TnA. It will never make sense to me.

Rebel_Scum38d ago

tbh even if they did remove it, it doesnt matter. I dont even remember when there was nudity in the game. If it was there it was so inconsequential.

B5R38d ago

Agreed. It absolutely makes no sense

Also, even though Ubisoft reverted the changes that removed nudity, there's the bigger issue of developers being able to make large changes to the game you paid for whenever they want.

Stellar Blade comes to mind. This is why buying physical is the way to go.

Played and enjoyed Far Cry, Far Cry 3 and 4 campaigns .

-Foxtrot425d ago

4 wasn’t so bad

Pagan Min was pretty entertaining

Skuletor425d ago

Yeah, 4 was good, was hard choosing which Golden Dawn member to side with, when they were both pieces of sh!t.
I've beaten all the main entries except 2 and 6, ended up uninstalling 6 to download something else instead.

Profchaos425d ago

I'd love a far cry pack with the original PC game (not the half assed port on ps360) instincts, predator even a port of far cry 2 to modern consoles back when these games had their own identity and weren't far cry 3 cut and pastel

Demetrius425d ago

Still one of my most favorite franchises along with assassins creed

banger88425d ago (Edited 425d ago )

Same here, I don't know why these games get so much hate. I've thoroughly enjoyed every single one of them, with only a couple of exceptions. I wish they'd hurry up and announce Far Cry 7. The only thing I'm concerned about is the rumoured time limit.
