Far Cry 6 is power-fantasy first-person shooting at its finest. A gorgeous, huge tropical island is given to you, with carefully crafted locations, missions, and secrets to find and dominate. Urging you forward are the typical Far Cry cast of earnest and zany characters, providing motivation for your mad quest of vengeance upon a flamboyant villain. In short, not much has changed since Far Cry 3 reinvented the series in 2012. Nine years later the formula is old but enjoyable for those who want to play the hero in an accessible (and easy) game world.
The Joys of Open World Exploration
What is your heroic cause? To free the island nation of Yara. How? By overthrowing the evil dictator, Antón Castillo, played by Giancarlo Esposito of Breaking Bad fame. Giancarlo delivers brilliant acting in every one of his precious few scenes, as expected.
Still, most of the game isn’t about big-name actors in hyper-realistic cutscenes. The meat is in the pleasurable and addictive open world activities the series is famous for. And what a delectable treat is the Yaran ‘paradise.’ Many of the environments, including the tutorial beach island, took me back to 2004’s original Far Cry in the best way possible.
There is a joy of knowing you’ve been given a whole world to uncover at your leisure, jammed packed with things to do. What is available, you ask? See the local villages. Snap some photos. Try some horseback riding. Hunt or fish. Naturally there are checkpoints to capture. What else? Ambushes. Interceptions. Operations. Supply drops. Relic and treasure hunts. Charms and gear chests. Roosters. Vehicles. Hidden histories. Songs to unlock. Side stories, dominoes, races, and so much more.
In short, Far Cry 6 is a collector’s paradise and a daunting challenge for any completionist. Personally, when I checked the map on the starting tutorial island, I scrolled through the main island and was shocked at how massive it was. Part of me was excited for all that discovery, but part of me was fatigued. Nevertheless, I truly love playing Far Cry 6, but I’m a sucker for these types of games.
Accessibility: Dumbing Down or Tuning Up?
Please note that Far Cry 6 is the most accessible game of the series so far. Accessible also means easy because you’re pretty much given everything from the very start. Gone are the days of working so hard to finally unlock silenced sniper rifles and super-weapons. A couple hours in you’ll have guns that can easily get you through the entire game, which is a bit disappointing.
Also gone are the character skill trees and crafting upgrades systems of the last handful of titles. In Far Cry 6, everything is resource-based. You scrounge for gasoline, plastics, metals, and other materials. These are used to modify weapons with attachments and bonuses. I understand the change. In prior games, it became tiresome to earn XP and hunt down animals just to craft a bigger ammo pouch or whatnot. Still, I miss the stronger sense of character progression from past titles.
Game Structure, Plot, and Characters
How is the game structured, plot-wise? The map is divided into a tutorial island and other major regions. Each region has its own supporting characters and sub-villains. Slowly you march through the zones, in whatever order and pace you see fit.
Fast travel locations unlock regularly, and friendly NPCs will often mark important locations on your map. Completing big story missions furthers the main plot to overthrow the big baddie. It’s a tried-and-true approach, and there’s never a shortage of things to do. However, a little more innovation would have been nice.
Most main story missions are very good, but nearly all of them have been done before in prior Far Cry games. You burn down farms, fight hordes of enemies, board warships, capture forts and bunkers, and so forth. If not for the setting, one could easily mistake the game for Far Cry 5.
Guiding your missions are characters of differing excellence. The Far Cry series has never been known for quality writing. The main villains have been charismatic and beloved, but the actual narrative and dialogue have been seriously weak. Far Cry 6 continues this tradition. It features lots of confused messages on freedom, justice, and extreme violence. But whatever. Far Cry is sort of the Rambo of games: lots of intense bloodshed, plot and morality be darned.
Camp Building, Dispatch Missions, Expeditions
Taken from 2019’s Far Cry New Dawn are new and slightly improved camp building mechanics. It’s the usual fair: collect resources in the game world and spend them on upgrading your settlements. Each upgrade can be leveled up and gives extra benefits like more gear, access to vehicles, fishing buffs, and so on. It’s good fun for those who want a little more world-building in their first-person mayhem.
Another addictive (and entirely new) feature is dispatch missions, akin to the Metal Gear Solid 5 (and nearly identical to Expeditions from Anno 1800). You rescue leaders and recruits through regular gameplay. Then you send your bandito ‘army’ on missions and must wait a certain time. Once the timer is up, you ‘play out’ the mission in the menu, making choices to determine your success. The system is basic, but it’s another nice (and unexpected) feature.
Also returning from Far Cry New Dawn are Expeditions. These fantastic standalone missions take you to exotic and fun locations with excellent combat and unique objectives. You can play single-player or two-player co-op, and successful completions earn special currency to buy new weapons and items. Sadly, there are only two maps at launch, but four more are ‘coming soon.’ Still, this mode is possibly the most adrenaline-packed excitement I’ve had from the Far Cry series.
Equipment & Other Features
Another new feature is a five-piece equipment system, with countless interchangeable pieces of gear, each giving slight bonuses to stats. You can even change their appearance right from the start for the sake of Far Cry fashion. Finding all the pieces of gear scattered around the world is good fun, and some gear bonuses are quite useful. Then again, it is quite tedious to change equipment for every situation. A gear combining/crafting system whereby you could merge all the best traits for a cost would have been amazing.
Photo mode is an excellent and robust edition. You can change the time of day and even spawn vehicles. Some will never touch it, but I, for one, have spent WAY too much time living my best Far Cry photography life.
Fishing returns but is more accessible than it was in Far Cry 5. As always, fishing mini games tend to be ‘love ‘em or hate ‘em.’ Fishing in real-life and video games isn’t my cup of tea. But whatever. You can also collect a bunch of roosters and engage in cock fights. Also not my thing.
The sound design is solid, but not remarkable. Some of the music is excellent, such as the work done by composer, Pedro Bromfman. The other more youthful hip-hop/rap tracks were more of an acquired taste for me.
The Technical Issues
Let’s hit a few technical issues that PC players need to know about.
The framerate is worse than I expected. I can barely get 60 FPS at 1440p with Medium settings on my older Intel CPU but new nVidia RTX 3070. There appear to be optimization and threading issues with the game engine. Still, I need to be clear: the game runs decently. It stutters a bit when loading areas, but I’ve only seen a few flickering textures and physics glitches. Overall, the game is technically good. It’s just a bit too demanding for the performance delivered.
The main story cutscenes foolishly use letterboxing to be more ‘cinematic.’ Much worse, the cutscenes seem to be capped at 30 FPS, which is utterly terrible. The HD texture pack’s 11GB VRAM requirement is way too steep. Only players running 4K with the most insane video cards will be able to use it. Thankfully, the base textures look pretty good to me at 1440p. The 30 FPS cutscenes are the real sin that significantly impacted my enjoyment of key story moments. Let’s hope for a patch.
At least the PC customization options deliver virtually everything to be desired. Nearly every key is rebindable. There are FOV options, robust graphics settings, and many accessibility choices. Ubisoft clearly spent a lot of love and care with the PC features, apart from the poor engine optimization.
Connectivity, Autosave, Too Easy!
Then there’s Ubisoft Connect, the digital platform. Formerly known as Uplay, Ubisoft Connect can have issues and is inferior to Steam from a technical perspective. Then again, Ubisoft Connect provides PC Achievements, Challenges (Solo, Community, and Time-Based), Rewards, and Stats, all viewable from within the in-game overlay. We must take the good and bad together, I suppose.
In conjunction with Ubisoft Connect, there is also an in-game real-money store. You can purchase dreaded Premium currency to unlock cosmetics and game-impacting items.
Available are skins, vehicles, and weapons. You can also pay to reveal the location of collectibles on the map. Oh, and one content pack is exclusive to Amazon Prime users. Terrible!
Far Cry 6 is yet another game that doesn’t allow any manual saving. Relying on autosave exclusively results in loss progress in you’re not careful. Say you go to a town and pick up a few missions and maybe send out a dispatch team. If you then quit via the menu, your last efforts might not be saved. It appears that Fast Traveling saves the game, but a proper ‘Save on Quit’ option would have been nice.
Tied in with the autosave problem, the checkpoint system during missions isn’t good. Several times I had to stop playing in the middle of a mission only to find the mission hadn’t even started upon loading the game again. Bad.
Let me yet again state that Far Cry 6 is stupidly easy, especially with precise mouse controls on PC. It’s so easy that it invalidates many of its systems. Equipment bonuses. Cooking for stat bonuses. Weapon attachments. Special ammo. Amigo buddies. Disabling alarms. Hiding bodies. This stuff was nearly meaningless to me because all I usually needed to win was an assault rifle with armor-piercing rounds.
Moreover, the AI is very poor. Soldiers often get stuck behind buildings or walls or spawn all clumped together. Your ‘Amigo’ pets aren’t responsive enough to your commands. Here’s hoping for patches that improve the AI.
Activism, Shallow Writing, Rhetoric
For my final criticism, it must be noted that Far Cry 6 is the most political of the series, including attempts at social activism. I say ‘attempts’ because the game will throw an important topic at you but then zoom past it, sort of like drive-by moralizing.
For example, there is a transgender supporting character who shares much inner anguish in one particularly emotional scene. After such sharing, I felt like I should try to respond to this person on a human level. If dialogue options existed, I would have said: [Heartfelt] “I hear your pain, and it sounds like you’ve had some very unhealthy relationships in your life. I’ll listen if you want to tell me more.”
But this is Far Cry; real conversations don’t happen. Even ultra-serious topics like mass murder and slavery are just glanced at and then gone. It’s a shame because Far Cry 6’s narrative topics would be interesting to explore in a less superficial kind of game.
In short, Ubisoft wants to make important statements, but the writers aren’t equipped to handle the responsibility of complex issues. Thus, even sacrosanct characters become caricatures. Sorry, trans character, you deserved better than a Far Cry game.
Concluding Remarks
Far Cry 6 has issues. It’s very similar to past titles. The AI is inadequate, and the game is far too easy. The PC performance could be much better. Its narrative is messy, and nobody likes preachy politics. But you know what? I can overlook the faults because the overall playing experience is so good.
Getting lost in a tropical paradise. Experiencing the joys of discovery. Air dropping on a new outpost and silently eliminating every guard in a matter of seconds with precisely aimed headshots. This. Is. Far Cry…6! And I love it. I really do. We only get quality open-world FPS experiences like this every few years, and I’m ready to spend many more hours reaching 100% completion over the coming weeks.
However, if you’re not a sucker for open world shooters, the smart move is to wait several months for a few patches and a price discount. Yara will still be there down the road, waiting for you to embrace the muddled madness of the latest Far Cry revolución.

“The HD texture pack’s 11GB VRAM requirement is way too steep”
More game developers should release optional 4K texture packs, this make PC games “future proof”. PC hardware is faster every year and new graphics cards already have 12-16 GB. Soon Nvidia will release old RTX 2060 with 12 GB instead 6 GB for just 299 usd
It doesn’t do much good to have faster GPUs if they are not affordable for the average gamer. Even the RTX 2060 6GB is around $700 here in the USA. The 2060 12GB will be even more. MSRP is meaningless these days thanks to miners and scalping and the shortage of components including the PCB for the boards.
The RTX 3060 12GB (MSRP $329) is even worse at around $900.
Higher prices of GPU are temporary, high quality textures will be available forever. In 2025 you will run those HD textures on cheapest available GPU. This is why games should be future proof
No, they don’t, their degeneracy doesn’t need to be put front and center of games, and pushing it on kids games is abuse.
degeneracy? ah ah you are a caveman
are you aware that in the shia islam, in iran they are protected like special creatures? in their version of qoran they are considered close to angels
im no muslim im just informed and im not very sensitive or that much humanitarian but im not ignorant like you
it is a genetical disorder, or a malformation but they are fully cognitive persons why you have to offend them? kids will meet them in their lives eventually, and they will receive no harm, but they will meet your kind also and if you are armed you may even kill those kids you care so much for, judging from your closeminded vision
You’re calling other human beings, that have feelings, that have reason, just like you and everyone else, as freaks? It’s just terrible man. It’s ok you didnt like it for any reason or you don’t want it for your child or something. But calling and treat them as freaks? C’mon, man, i’m sure that you’re much better than this.
Stfu.
Just because you are into d111ck women and want your fetish normalized, does not mean the majority of people do.
Didn’t know this was a site visited mainly by racists and homofobic people lol In few minutes two. It’s shocking and maybe explaing why people needs to do a stupid plot like FC6. Because hateful people like you guys.
So the plot is stupid ? i thought it was strong and brave.
I think it’s very stupid and very childish.
you are being ironic i think
Yes
thank god
but plenty of people here which would do mean what you said in irony
Now you know.
Dude wake up you are brainwashed… no one hate gays, trans… people hate their satanic life style.
Satanic Life Style? Can you explain more about it? Personally I don’t know any transgender, by I have some gays friends. I really don’t know what you’re possible talking about. I’m curious.
you forgot antisemites and transphobic.
chad YES by the way.
“. It’s shocking and maybe explaing why people needs to do a stupid plot like FC6. Because hateful people like you guys.”
lol this is saints row reboot tier.
“WE STAND BY OUR DESIGN DECISON”
Wtf? So you telling me that when videogames take tons of time and money to make, you made the game woke just to stick it to people? What a waste of money and the scumbags say “we appeal to a global audience” lol most people are not progressive.
thats why we are regressing
you are a chad? i d love to see your weak body frame in real, i think you barely have started to grow hair on face
admittedly due to the pandemic i dont go to gym anymore but also due to that i look like tom hanks in that move he is a castaway. So no you are wrong.
ah ah tom hanks…ah ah
so you still haven’t seen flat earthers, holocaust deniers, pedophiles, school shooters and those who call education woke yet.
All of these are not common where I live. This is a arabian website or something? I’m new here. Love the articles, but all these hate, homofobic and rascist commentaries is really shocking. People upvoting these posts and downvoting posts against these nonsense is shocking, not my reality on streets at all, at least where I live.
No, majority of audience here is from southern europe and then eastern europe and then middle east and south east asia would be my guess.
Now it makes much more sense.
no its just most arabic countries have no greenery, so they stay all day indoor and play videogames read about and build their own parallel education on cheap easy to digest hatred concepts, im sorry muslims thats what most of you are…improve secularize and you will be more respected so that you cry always that muslims are neglected and bla bla bla…all humans are neglected…in principle by a god or 3 gods which dont exist
i think fc6 is not stupid…is malignant with regard to the plot
ACCEPT US BIGOT, SUCK THE DCK BIGOT.
Lol
i think you are just uninformed…it has nothing to do with sex….they have an identity disorder, they may not be sexual, in principle, it is not related, instead you are talking about sexual preferences….which is another thing….you are very confused…study read open your mind go to church mosque whatever, then come back and you can discuss
i think you are an idiot because suck the dck bigot literally happened.
Also did you know 2 of them r*ped little girls in bathrooms?
No he’s not better than this, he’s a garbage human being.
but you talk to these goons? the flamthrower is what they deserve
you must realize that most of humanity is dumb and its a lost cause to try to make them reason, whatever technology gift the majority of human crowd receive they use it the wrong way saturating p*rn and videogames websites but avoiding any effort which could bring improvement to themselves and their lives, it is not a matter of humanity it is a matter of science here, science says that it does is a disease but theres no other cure for them and they must be respected
So you’re comparing one of the worst criminals of the world with transgender? What’s the crime behind transgenders? Really?
Man, i have no idea where you’re getting this number.
no, hes not
stop asap hoping in other s people good will, there are good people, but also a vast herd of sheep with sharp teeth
If you have a d111ck or have ever had a d111ck, you are not a chick.
no they are not women, but they feel they are, what we gonna do? keep them in the suffering? there is no other cure for their symptoms that let them be what they feel, its not nice but this is where science has gotten to for now to help them
Pure nonsense bulls***
LGBT in Islam is something not tolerated and will never be, simply cause it’s against nature it self, like it or not your media and propaganda is full of sh**.
“their version of qoran” —> Quran has one version everywhere
in general you shall study and read more rather than wasting your time on videogames, but unless you are very young, i see little margin of improvement for you even if you earned a doctorate, you are dumb and stubborn also and have no idea how complex nature is because for you nature is what you find on the shelves at walmart

from wikipedia
“Due to this fatwa, issued in 1987, transgender women in Iran have been able to live as women until they can afford surgery, have surgical reassignment, have their birth certificates and all official documents issued to them in their new gender, and marry men”
it was a fatwa issued by khomeini in person
you know nothing jon snow
From what I understand it is gay men (who are not tolerated) who are forced to transition into being women. Most usually live out heir lives as ‘temporary brides’ after that.
Anybody who claims a person confused about their gender has a ‘genetic disorder’ is a person to be ignored, in other words a f*king moron…
like the person you see every morning in the mirror
There’s no different version of allah or quran in shia islam and sunni islam, the only difference is the caliphs who succeeded muhammed.
If you spend time to read a single article on anything, you’re more informed on the issue than 99.99 percent of people online discussing it.
who the f*k cares…im not a muslim and theres no need to be and i dislike all religions, islam above the others because it is retrograde and was born just to unify all arab tribes under the concept of islam which means submission, they wouldnt submit to mohammed as mohammed they would if mohammed was the messenger of allah, one of the idols of the mecca pantheon and not yaveh an not the christian god, three imaginary boys, and you miss the point that even strict sharia is more openminded than you cave people
You do since you’re talking about it. You’re trying to defend transgender people but you end up belittling them because you have no idea what you’re talking about.
you cannot make a point not even with a brushpen, so now you are that im belittling them while the insults you all are throwing at them at roses, your logics is in a serious state, do something, read, think on else than zelda when you are sitting on the toilet
i guess you are muslim
imagine when a human prefers to be defined as muslim rather than a human or a citizen of their birthplace…your personality is in the quran, not in your mind…thats your achievement
what in fck’s name am I reading? are you off your pills?
it is a predictable thing to say but also righteous, this is a moment when i wish i had you before me to teach you a lesson, reasoning is not working it would be time for a different way to snap you out of your ignorance
ah good now the muslims are ethical and cleanse the world, im sorry to inform you you are nothing else than a farting bob of blood and bones you are nothing special, just like those freaks and one day you will rot in a cage but before you die you will realize that we are all fragile and nothing special
go back to the hood n**ga, n**gas are mentally ret**ded on average compared to average caucasian….how do you like that?
of course i dont mean what i just wrote but its what i would say if i were an ignorant like you in the sense that you ignore because you are barely cutting it through with your native language, so i pity you and all the other haters here
WTF…
The truth is, in Iran, homosexuality is banned.
But, in order to avoid killing them all, they FORCE them to change s*x.
They’re not freaking “special creatures”. HA HA HA
Search “The gay people pushed to change their gender” or “Thousands of gay people are being forced to undergo gender reassignment surgery in Iran”…
Gee, even a 5 seconds research on Google and you see already countless articles saying that gays are trying to escape from Iran.
Ugh, you got me good, troll. Damn!
also many men harm women
another ni**a talking, ni**as harm women all the time…as your wife knows well or will know after you stop jerking off and switch to pu**y
mentally ill doesnt mean harmful necessarily
or you would be already in jail
shut up and go back in the jungle
rats are more harmful indeed
its so stupid anyway “trans in the militay” dude has a moutanche, where you get that? Is it painted on? You get meds in that tropical island in the middle of nowhere?
F*ckin snowflake.
so more of the same sh*t far cry hasn’t been good since 2.
FC3 was a good game for their time. At least IMHO.
no it was scripted to death with qtes
I don’t know why you guys are so forgiving to Farcry series and how it’s still getting good reviews. They literally just repaint the same old Farcry formula and give it to us like a new game when it’s not. It’s always a power-fantasy whether you talk about Vaas, Pagan-Min, Joseph Seed or Anton Castillo, the antagonist is always some mad drug addicted power hungry psychopath running a regime of fanatic soldiers. It’s always a remote island where you either get stuck or loose someone important causing you to go against that regime and eventually becoming one man army.
Gameplay wise it’s always about capturing red parts of the map and turning them into blue. You make few friends on the way who teach you how to make or get better gear and that’s it. Riding vehicles is just as boring as ever and the activities get repetitive real quick, there is literally nothing more to do in this game and it doesn’t bring any significant new feature to the table.
The only thing they do good is making lush jungles and that’s about it. Farcry series lost it’s soul long time ago and they are just dragging it because we go too easy on it. I received the game for free with the purchase of a new processor but after trying it for just two hours I already feel like uninstalling it. This series needs to die for good and they need to come up with something completely new, even if it becomes a less open world game with more linear focus on story like Metro, I’ll take it but not this rotten open world formula anymore.
Still you did good effort on the review itself so thumbs up for that.
Finally some sense about FarCry.
Ubisoft and Bethesda both excel at making huge areas to explore but they fall short when it comes to filling those areas with unique, fun things that do not become repetitive.
i saw this guy boomstick gaming doing a bunch of videos on the,, when he was running around with a grenade launcher that shoots fire and putting mines on the crocodile and sending it to bomb everyone while it glows like a christmas tree, that seemed fun to me.
but i agree with you on becoming more linear like metro, i am so tired of empty open worlds and outposts with 6 people in them.
Thanks for your comment, BACE. Your points are all valid. I personally still have fun with Far Cry games, even though they lack innovation. But many people feel as you do. I’m glad other games are innovating and providing new experiences. Thanks again for sharing your thoughts.
If it was for garbage people you and people like sfnx would be the first playing it so I think it’s just a mediocre game.
You guys got Brumbek to write for this site?
No way! That’s pretty awesome haha, nice review too.
Far Cry seriously needs to stop being so formulaic and actually reintroduce some challenge.
Nick has been reviewing games since 2018 😛
Well then I just now found out he is also known as Brumbek.
Anyhow, good stuff
Thanks for your support! Since I don’t have time for modding anymore, writing reviews keeps me playing games now and then. Best wishes to you!
Might check it out when it’s 50% off in 6 weeks
It will be $35 around November.
sauce?
Nothing about this mediocre game justifies this gif or your stupid comment but I guess you’re waiting for other miserable bastards like yourself on this site to show up and upvote you.
yeah notice this douche refers to fascism which is a programmed code word in the modern context for opposing talmudics/kabbalist filth. They spout marxist venom and never mention the 70+ million dead in the soviet jewnion and 100+ million in the crypto owned and operated china. Kabbalistic dialectical synthesis, central bankster/mega corporate/stock market scam monopolism VS. Marxism, outcome is total slavery and death for the non-master race talmudics. Notice that nzi-ism is just a different form of judism, same master race self worship garbage idolatry. Small independently owned free enterprise with dispersed private property is the best way. Mobocracy is just a slow highway to marxism as well. Now I’m sure the vermin will show up here, they always do. Don’t bother.
Another copy/paste Far Cry. Still going down hill since Far Cry 2.
This game is a joke. Graphics are too much outdated, i don’t think it’s beautiful at all. The models looks like The Sims 2 or The Sims 3. Foliage, terrain, textures in general are just OK. Shader is terrible implemented and global illumination…….. Oh God…
All the animations are more than terrible! Beyound terrible! IA is one of the most dumbest and weirds that I ever seen in last years. Ballistic system is laughable! It’s just terrible. The missions are annoying, generic and repetitive in every way possible. Every mission not only side ones. The plot is made for childish adults. The level progression or even level design…. There’s no words for it. Looks like a game made on random generator or something. 0/10.
Nothing new on any Ubisoft game. The games are generic and the criticist too. Only Breakpoint scape from this type of criticist.
It is just like FC5, it can look good sometimes, but if you analyze it giving the proper look, you will realize that is terrible done. It looks like a DX9 game with incredible mod.
nope, its far left trash who lost touch with reality by living inside their liberal milieu academia , you didnt read the bruce pic.good women get filtered as good men do, really is about replacing good taste with contemporary radical thinking in general.
chad response by bruce where can i find the site that tolerates these kind of comments?
Also yes, far cry 6 be like “soviet weapons everywhere” so the dictator is a communist right? Right? He took over in the previous revolution that was funded by the soviet union, right? NOPE, his favorite weapon is a luger and a mp40 is in the game saying it the favorite weapon of the dictator and here is some italian music from the italian resistance while you burn down a farm that makes a drug that cures cancer, wtf does italy and mussolini have to do with fake cuba let alone german ww2 guns is beyond me, but hey NAHTZESS BAD, COMMIES GOOD…or something.
At some point some zoomer is saying that this captain Bennito barged inside the school and started executing zoomers who liked posts by the leader of the resistance claudia who is a middle upper class soycialist. LOL, i screamed BASED.
Seriously everyone in this game is so unlikable and claudia says that after they win it will take generations of civil war to have peace, then might as well leave and go to miami. Bad ending is best ending.
good: setting, lots of guns, customizaton of guns, you got a tank, you can stick mines on your pets and send them blow up enemies, some form of base building, map is fun to explore. THE FREAKING MINIGUN.
bad, writing, characters, weapons have no recoil, stupid ai, most missions are been there done that and it could have been better back then, no destructability, tank gets stuck on everything, leveled weapons and armor that give you “perks” they removed the magnum revolver, the vektor smg and the semi auto 50 cal sniper rifle. Also mandatory third person in camps Why?
That was a pretty good review and a nice read.
As expected this is another mediocre ubisoft game with tons of stuff without any purpose.
I’m glad you enjoyed the review! To me, Far Cry 6 is comfort gaming, sort of like a pop music album or box of donuts. Not much lasting substance, but it’s fun while it lasts. But skipping it is entirely understandable!
Conclusion : Play Far Cry 3 and dont play this more of the same bloated DLC and Play far Cry 2 instead if you feel more adventurous and need some challenge, or the first Far Cry if you need some campy B-movie like open world goodness
Wait, didn’t anyone notice how Nick here refers to himself as 3rd person? lmao https://media1.giphy.com/media/9Vkm7LGgrPTcA345Sb/giphy.gif
Thanks for your post, you made me save lots of time.
No way I’m playing this.
Can always count on the DSO comments to be a cesspool of bigotry and hatred. I honestly don’t even know why I bother looking. Love the site, can’t stand the “regulars” that occupy the comments.
There are many of us, the ‘silent majority’ who read DSOGaming, who would never post bigoted and hateful comments. I agree with you that it is very unfortunate that a tiny, tiny percentage of readers post ugly comments. This makes the site appear so overwhelmingly toxic.
The comments section is the classic problem of ‘the good people leave, which invites more bad actors to take their place.’ I personally block any user who posts hateful stuff, and I don’t engage with them. Some people just have a lot of hurt within them and don’t know how to process their feelings in healthy ways. Hurting people need attention, and lashing out at others is the only coping method many people know.
Just be reassured that there are legions more of us that aren’t so full of venom, even if we mostly remain silent. Thanks for reading!
Don’t block, rather flag each such comment to Disqus.
Not on steam is a con? What?
I seriously do not understand this stupidity. Why would you run a game with another layer of DRM? As if that one used by Ubi wasn’t bad enough.
I should have clarified. It would have been better being a Steamworks game that ONLY used Steam, like the old days of Ubisoft games. That was what the Con meant.
Old Ubisoft games didn’t use any client.
Uplay is beyond garbage. lmao Steam is not.
Uplay is beyond garbage. lmao Steam is not.
And? “lmao” you still need Uplay “lmao” to play the Ubisoft game. “lmao”.
Lmao, yes, lmao, but, lmao, you, lmao, only, lmao, need it, lmao, to launch, lmao, the game, lmao. Other than that, lmao, you play it, lmao, like any other, lmao, steam game. Lmao. Uplay plays little to no part when playing the game, LmAo.
And what did I write above idiot? Why would you want to run a game with steam and uplay?
I would have bought it on steam if im not required to run another client, like EGS games that when they run out of exclusivity, they come to steam with out having to run EGS on top of it.
Because, idiot, while i play a game, i would like to fully have all the features Steam has to offer. 2 launchers, or not. I pay no business to uplay. I only care about playing the game on Steam.
Never liked Far Cry, sooooo so overrated, especially now.
I enjoyed the first two with Jack Carver as the protag, but then future installments become way too different than the other, its a great case of identity crisis, this series needs to just die off. At least Just Cause 3 and 4 is a great game.
I wish you could join a side, as I would love to put a machne gun through these soyswilling ‘revolutionaries’.
