Review: 'Far Cry 4' boasts massive, gorgeous setting | FDL

"Far Cry 4" is clearly a game you play for the visuals and missions, not the narrative and, honestly, that's probably acceptable.

I thought the narrative was pretty good

TheSaint3821d ago

It was ok, though I don't play Far Cry games for the story to be fair.

moomoo3193820d ago

I play every game for the whole package and i thought the narrative complemented the gameplay nicely. The choices were pretty serious and i really wanted to see how it ended.

AndrewLB3821d ago

The narrative is good if you actually take the time to find all the letters, journal entries, etc. Without all that context, the game is completely different.

Have you tried staying at the table during the opening scene instead of leaving? hehe.

DougLord3821d ago

Agree, best looking game so far. Maybe not technically (resolution or framerate), but the scale and scope of the landscape is amazing. And there is NO difference between Xone and PS4. It's not about technical BS and a few extra pixels. It's about artwork and ambition in design.

late but still a good move, oobi

InUrFoxHole37d ago

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

OhReginald38d ago

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

dantesparda38d 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

Profchaos38d ago

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

ETA next century

I_am_Batman37d ago

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

raWfodog38d ago

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

P_Bomb38d ago

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

Yi-Long38d 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_Scum62d 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.

B5R62d 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 .

-Foxtrot449d ago

4 wasn’t so bad

Pagan Min was pretty entertaining

Skuletor449d 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.

Profchaos449d 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

Demetrius449d ago

Still one of my most favorite franchises along with assassins creed

banger88449d ago (Edited 449d 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.
