Anyway, i still haven't played FC4 (even though loved FC3, blood dragon, but thought Primal was meh), so i might play FC5 in 2025. |

Reviews have dropped, they are good-to-great across the board. Most of the criticism are (a) doesn't do much new, very much more of the same (no worries, I liked 3 and 4 plenty) and (b) story is all over the place (that was also true of 3 and 4 eg. weird drug orgy sex scene thing in FC3 and the general awfulness of the main character in both games). HYPE TRAIN LEAVING THE STATION, WOO WOO |

If you're the type to sneak around undetected with a bow making silent kills, well you'll have a distraction at least. |

In 3 and 4 I pulled off some mad long-shot kills with the bowsT. I reckon I did more kills with the bows than everything else put together. Here's a 75+ metre kill, first few seconds of the video: |

I'll definitely get this, but not for a while. I'm generally okay with 'more of the same' but it doesn't feel like that long ago I played 4 so I'll wait until I'm less likely to suffer Far Cry-fatigue. |

My FC4 tactics were typically 1) let loose the rampaging animals 2) blow up everything that is capable of blowing up 3) walk through the front gate and gat fools |

You walk into the place that is both where the wild animals will rampage, and in the blast area of the explosives, then free the wild animals and set off the explosives? It's novel, I'll give you that. |

Most of the time it goes like this: There's the alarm should shoot it with silenced sniper gun. Shit, missed. Ah balls he is going to press it. Ah. He pressed it. Run run ok molotov out and away to my left and let's start the dakka dakka. Where the fuck did that bear come from? What exploded? Dakka dakka shit that bear is back dakka dakka base clear! Wait! Theres a fucking bear here come here murder mittens now die! Dakka dakka dakka But the three step description is far cooler. |

This article suggests you should upskill your beast handling skills first and foremost. I think having any kind of NPC compadre would be more of a ballache than anything, but I'd imagine plenty would enjoy having their own personal attack bear. |

Every review I've read has criticised it for being tonally all over the place and that it tries to make deeper statements than the writing is capable of. Which is every Far Cry ever so seems an odd complaint to level at FC5. I loved FC3 and 4 in spite of the writing and characters, not because of them. |

Ah, I hadn't paid too much attention to that. Fair enough. I always felt the series has had ideas above its station in terms of social commentary and player agency. The writing has generally been piss poor aside from Vaas and Min. The gameplay was enjoyable enough to let it slide. But if they've tried to hitch their wagon more formally to being Something Important, then those criticisms are more valid. |
