Far cry 5 is the most boring game i have played in years!.

[B-Cell_v1legacy]

What the hell was ubisoft thinking? why they always ruined a game after they show potential that was in 2 and 3?

I finally played far cry 5 after watching some positive feedback from gggmanlives and worth a buy and other youtubers. it run nice, it looks amazing graphically but game is not fun to play. ubisoft choose most boring setting on earth after brilliant tropical island in 3 and africa in 2. FC4 setting was terrible too but FC5 has worst setting in the franchise. its not fun to explore, and theres only one type of mission that is to liberate and thats in. i remember the variety in far cry 3, how jason brody journey from common man to warrior, how charismatic hoyt and vaas were. none of this thing present in this game instead you are nobody thrown in city of montana whose main task is to LIBERATE. yes im playing the unfun version of Just cause 2.

FC5 villains are just too nice and not hated at all. joseph seed doesnot look like a bad guy. just a preacher, faith seed seem like a cute girl.

im not a big fan of far cry 3. as it was also the game that become tedious too but this game made far cry 3 a masterpiece seriously.

far cry 2 is still single best far cry game ever released. crowbcat was right.

is anyone feel same?

Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha.

But, moving on. I am sorry your youtube saviours have failed you. Will this mean you retroactively think their decisions are rubbish? I look forward to a bright and shiny future, where you will parrot some new opinions mixed with your same old ones?

I'm actually really enjoying it, especially the setting. How many fps games out there are set in modern day rural America? There's a lot of potential there and Ubisoft managed not to squander it. Pretty awesome selection of guns and melee weapons too. Also fishing. I love fishing. And you get a dog! And a bear! And a mountain lion! And Hurk!

I don't really give a fuck about the story in a Far Cry game. Shooting people with fun weapons in a fun setting is the main selling point and Far Cry 5 does that really well.

I know that you live in Pakistan but these people are actually seen as extremists pretty much everywhere else in the world.

You're saying that the villains aren't charismatic yet you think that the villains in FC5 are nice and not hated all, you see the contradiction?

You're saying that the villains aren't charismatic yet you think that the villains in FC5 are nice and not hated all, you see the contradiction?

my point is. Vaas and hoyt were psychopath villains that can be hated. vaas especially was crazy villain.

FC5 villains just sound like waay too nice to be hated. main character is non existance and villains sound almost right at all.

Hoyt, the villain so charismatic everyone in this thread probably had to look up which one he was again.

I mean, sure, Far Cry 5's villains are a forgettable lot themselves, impressively committed to one note gimmicks, and every interaction you have with them is the most hamfisted inane piece of game design and forced stupidity imaginable.

But you pretty much drove your proverbial bus off the cliff by trying to put up Hoyt as some standard of quality.

Getting back to the topic on hand, 4 had the better overall villains. With most of them not being caricature tropes and having some sort of vaguely tangible motivation (at least until the one evil yakuza lady starts embedding the magical tiger dimension into something that isn't just Ajay's drugged out fantasy trip, which is kind of goofy)

I must have forgotten that forced religious conversion through torture is right. Same with crippling drug addictions which culminate in things like complete loss of self and suicide.

for a cult leader. ubisoft show a terrible job to portray them as hated villain. thats my point. not a forced conversion.

You said they were "way too nice to be hated". The preacher tortures you or others in each scene (with the end goal of conversion). The girl drugs people out of their brain and asks them to kill themselves or serve as slaves.

Your version of nice sounds pretty troubling, friend.

Did you even play the game? One of them tattoo your sin on your body, cuts the part of the skin out and staples it on walls. And if you refuse they threaten your family.

One drugs people, make them turn on their own family and friends, makes them walk off cliffs and they're essentially irreversibly brainwashed.

One brainwashes you subconsciously, making you kill people, strongly believes in survival of the fittest and kills anyone beneath him.

Then there's the leader who started it all, the guy who shoved his fingers into some guys eyes because he was filming a service.

Do these people seriously sound too nice to you?

only for one hour. and no they dont see nice to me but ubisoft potray joseph seed as cool guy instead of one that i feel like "yeah i cant get my hands on" thing.

thats my point. not a good villain. the story itself is terrible and nonsensical.

beside my biggest complain so far is lack of variety. there is only one objective and that is to liberate. nothing else.

You've only played the game for one hour and you think you know all the characters already?

instead of one that i feel like "yeah i cant get my hands on" thing.

What does this even mean? You barely know the characters to begin with but you can already tell 20 minutes into the game that Joseph Seed is batshit insane.

You haven't even played the game for an hour. Sounds to me like you already made up your mind about the game before you even get into it.

I enjoy it to, but I'll admit I only ever played Far Cry...Instinct I think someone here told me it was called. The one where you're a Weapon-X escapee with super powers.

As for FC5 I'm straight up enjoying it. Soured on the fact there is no post-credit free play, and the endings are hot garbage, but there's a real, and I hate to use this, but traditional small-town American vibe to it. People talking about fishing at Whatever Lake with their dad, that day Peggie Petterson wore a white dress to prom, that time the guys got drunk and shot off fireworks in the field.
I actually like it! And I identify with it much more than the ones set in like Tibet or some paradise island. Not that those settings and cultures are bad, I just have to touch-stone to them like I do grilling with dad on Sundays in the back yard.

As for the villains, they did go downhill as the game went on. John Seed was the best, followed by Faith, Jacob and Joseph was sadly the worst. Joseph just sucked, Jacob is a jarhead lunatic with a thing for red disco lights, Faith was interesting and intense, especially how she got into people's minds and lost her cool as you went on. But John Seed was just sinister and great! Especially as the first area you liberate. Anyone who can convince people to tattoo their deadly sin into their flesh and then literally carve it out of them, while singing hymns and smiling is a good villain.

I am just excited for the Vietnam campaign and the Zombie apocolypse one.

I now have played enough of it and i can still say game lack variety and is pretty boring. still all im doing is to liberate town and rescue civillains. i complete each of few missions of every region.

This topic took no time at all to establish B-Cell has no idea what he's talking about.

Why did it have to exist, instead of just giving your thoughts about Farcry 5 in the existing Farcry 5 topic, like all us other lowly peasants?

 

[Adam Jensen_v1legacy]

This topic took no time at all to establish B-Cell has no idea what he's talking about.

And it's pretty obvious that he's lying about playing the game at all. He complains about no variety in the game while gushing over Far Cry 2. And that game has a PhD in repetitiveness. Far Cry 5 literally has more variety than any other Far Cry. There are far more activities that you can engage in and ways to tackle missions. He's lying through his fuckin' teeth again.

 

[Squilookle]

Wait a second-

You're saying it wasn't until you actually played it that you realised it had substituted the lush, exotic locales of the previous Far Cry entries for me-too been-there-done-that anywheresville rural U.S.A?

How the hell did you fail to realise that?

I am just excited for the Vietnam campaign and the Zombie apocolypse one.

In all honestly- while I'm avoiding the base game for the above reason, if the Vietnam content releases as a standalone like Blood Dragon did, all things considered I'll probably pick it up.

 

[Johnny Novgorod]

I finally played far cry 5

Did you even play the game??

only for one hour.

Petition to lock thread.

Far cry 2 does have problems like respawn outpost but it just more fun to play than later games in a series where you tag enemies and see thorough walls.

from what i have played in few hours of 5 so far. if it doesnot become better in future it would be waste of time. im just rescuing civllians and liberating places.
