    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The open world is gorgeous, the story starts really cool. But as time passes, the plot becomes predictable, the trippy drug sequences are annoying and make no sense. The ending is not bad at all, excepting for the bad guy being bullet-proof. There´s too much Deus Ex Machina in this game. It makes no sense that Joseph survives, it makes no sense the nuclear holocaust he created inside the US, and that the main character and him could make it to the bunker.… Expand

    Are you really tired of making the same game? Because we are tired of playing the same game...

    Great game, amazing coop. Played at the hardest difficulty. Love the story and villains.
    Expect bugs. I was able to break the game to the point I nearly had to start over (otherwise a 9/10 game, but the bugs are pretty serious).

    I ignored this game because I hated Far Cry 2.
    My friend was playing this game so bought a copy for me as well.
    I shouldn't have ignored this game as it's quite fun if you just feel like killing and destroying, reminds me quite a lot of Just Cause 2 which I liked.

    I like the open world and it's fun trying to destroy the cult. However I dislike how the story is implemented and how it has forced kidnappings you can't avoid and the game does feel too repetitive. I didn't mind the ending.

    AI companions are stupid of course, often get in your way or step in front of your line of sight. I had a companion step in front of me just as I was firing a rocket which you can guess the outcome of that.

    I hate being forced to use the Ubisoft launcher. The launcher sometimes has problems of often not being able to sync cloud save data or their servers not working. I lost several hours of progress as the cloud save did not sync properly.
    The game does have bugs, I liberated a outpost and a helicopter was spawned inside a building and was levitating and wobbling around clattering against the ceiling which eventually caused it to explode.
    Overall I found the game fun enjoyed it and didn't feel bored playing.    … Expand

    По сравнению с FC4 игра FC5 похуже но поиграть в неё стоит. Также колоритные персонажи, интересно сделана боёвка и стелс не подкачал )))

    The gameplay is alright but the way every single interaction between you and the seeds is made is beyond lazy just randomly drugging you at certain points in the game to feed you exposition and doing that at least 3 times for each of them then spawning you at the location that the story requires you to be at THAT IS LAZY

    As a big fan of Far Cry 1, I decided to try FC5 after lots of years. In FC1 there were obvious AI glitches, but it was tolerable and sometimes fun as it was almost first of its kind game on that level :) Graphics in FC5 is really nice and storyline (I am in 1/3 lets say) seems tempting as well. Found myself sometimes watching the scenery being fascinated. Pity is that AI glitches in FC5As a big fan of Far Cry 1, I decided to try FC5 after lots of years.

Found myself sometimes watching the scenery being fascinated. Pity is that AI glitches in FC5 reminded me of FC1 where noc behavior looked little a bit similar :) So what really drives down this game, is enemy and companion AI, after all those years, it looks pretty stupid, also according to current measures. And have to mention any aircraft model controls and behavior, drives me insane, each time I have an aircraft mission :D Wanted to note down the things why I cant give a higher score, as the glitches are obvious. All in all good game with really nice graphics, with couple of unfortunate things. There are no decimals in the score to be able to give, so I’ll be nice and give it 7/10, nothing more is possible :). Thanks.… Expand

    Played this game on PC and PS4. I like story in game but it's my personal preference. The whole other game is awful. You will be constantly attacked by cultists, bears, wolfs, fish and all other species. Worth to play if you have this game from game pass or ps+ so you don't spend extra money. Also I hate this system where you need complete big amount not interesting missions for story.

    Review só pra lembrar a nota que dei pro jogo:
    Vilão principal e ideia interessantes mas o jogo é repleto de bugs, repetitivo e monótono, a jogabilidade é a mesma de Far cry 3, a adição de companheiros é interessantes mas são claramente existem alguns que estão lá apenas para falar que tem.

    The game doesnt have the mysterious location that other Far Cry games have. But I continued playing and eventually get over that. It is still an enjoyable shooter with a pretty nice open world. I prefer Far Cry in a far land full of mystery instead of a national park in one of the most developed countries in the world. But it is still a decent open world shooter.

    Эта опять все та же FAR CRY 3 только с большим количеством транспорта, и на мой вкус с более интересным сеттингом. Кучка фанатиков захвативших власть внушали надежды на достойный сюжет, а сам Иосиф Сид по превью казалось смог бы потягаться в харизматичности с Ваасом. Жаль что на деле ему дали от силы 30 минут экранного времени, да и тему фанатиков не раскрыли.Эта опять все та же FAR CRY 3 только с большим количеством транспорта, и на мой вкус с более интересным сеттингом.

    For me this game doesn't deserves below than 7 although the story is not effective enough like FC3 but this game seems to me like a reboot of FC2, like the FC2 both have deep story work behind them but not shocking at all but they both have good gameplay so give it a try for just the gameplay (and the soundtracks btw).

    This game is a mess and the first far cry game i didnt 100% or even finish. It's a result of multiple factors:
    -good but boring scenery
    -the shooting is snappy but the guns are kinda boring and the ai is dog ****
    -the air and boat stuff controls badly
    -the bases and all structures have no verticality at all

    Fun and enjoyable game with lots of stuff to do in big open world. Characters were well written. Unfortunatly the main characters which you play doesnt have a voice that takes away the atmosphere.

    Far Cry 5 is a nice and funny FPS that you’ll enjoy most in co-op. The well-proven concept would deserve a rejuvenation and adding a story that is adequate to the rest of the game. [Issue#285]

    This fresh take on the Far Cry franchise is clearly visible content-wise, but a tad more discrete on the style. If you're not bothered by the slightly repetitive formula, you'll enjoy the many strengths of this episode.

    Far Cry 5 doesn’t propel the series forward — it just refines all of its elements and relegates the infamous towers to the dustbin of history. So if you‘re allergic to open worlds from Ubisoft, don’t say I didn’t warn you. But if you’re eager to meet new wacky characters, complete dozens of missions and enjoy the sights, welcome to Hope County, sinners!
