    Good job Ubisoft! you somehow made tanks boring and not dangerous at all!
    A tank approaches you? it's ok! use the emp gun that you get basically right away to completely stop the tank and steal it!

    I was so excited for this game to be released. I’ve love all the far cry’s, even the pink one, but this one was not to be.

    You’re joining forces with a Guerilla group to fight against an evil dictator. Better spend 1/4 of your time helping a trans person transition.
    If they kept politics out of the game, they may have saved it.    … Expand

    this game gets a lot better if you start ignoring all the political parts, cutscenes, kill every single civilian possible, and start to **** up all the missions with your friend while crashing 10 different vehicles and exploding each other constantly! (also exclusively using armor piercing makes the game easier since it's perfect for stealth while dealing decent damage against unarmored)

    The game is crap because of the monkeys who don't like this game and want to see different things all the time. Although I don't like the story of Far Cry 5, it was a very good game. all they had to do was make the same game and add a new story. what's the point of extracting the skill tree?!

    There isn't much that stands out with this game. The story is the main reason I finished it but it wasn't that great. The NPCs will literally spawn in front of your eyes, so that moment when you think you cleared an area... think again! Combat was satisfying at times, but I was able to use the same gun from start to finish so there is little to no progression in that department.

    * Excellent graphics - the DXR lighting is fantastic.
    * Water rendering is also top shelf.
    * Finally they brought back a voice-acted main character, thank you. The mute protagonist in both New Dawn & Far Cry 5 was unforgivable.
    * Excellent weapon modification system - it's good to see so many options for tweaking / customizing your weapons. Easily one of the highlights of the game for me as I really enjoy all the guns and modifications for them.
    * In cutscenes you now actually see your character which is a nice change.
    * Gameplay performance is actually pretty good and smooth.
    * Quest design is mostly good (see cons).
    * Some of the missions are well-designed with open combat in mind - bigger battles and things like that which are a lot of fun. "Run and gun" type which are nice to mix in with some of the more stealthy missions.

    Cons:

    * In typical Ubisoft fashion (of the last 5-8 years or so, anyway), the game is full of left wing extremism / wokeness / feminism / alphabet agenda. I'll never buy a game with this agenda in it. This is a "girl-power" and "alphabet people" game. The narrative and characters are not meant for normal people. This game is made for the ~5% of the world who can't figure out what gender they are. So just be advised of this upfront so you know what you're getting yourself into.
    * Similar to the above, there is anti-America propaganda in the game via dialogue as well - typical Ubisoft.
    * No manual saving
    * Choppy Cutscenes
    * Oversteering bug is present when driving vehicles that basically makes it impossible to drive any of the vehicles beyond a light coasting speed without auto drive enabled. This should have been caught during QA testing quite easily but Ubisoft is infamous for their poor [see: nonexistent] QA so this isn't really surprising.
    * Game only sold on Uplay & the Epic Fail Store; two stores I don't do business with - I buy games on Steam & GOG. If the game isn't sold at one of those stores, you have a 0% chance of ever earning a cent from me on any game.
    * Some of the core missions have some bad design flaws where you basically have to die the first time due to limited time in completing a task that you'll only be able to do if you already know where everything is.
    * Takedown system is really bad - Far Cry 3 and 4 had the best by far with easy to use chaining and you could easily mix things up to focus on hand-to-hand combat in stealth situations which is borderline impossible in this game due to how bad the takedown system is.
    * Miss the SA-50 semi-automatic Sniper Rifle from Far Cry 4. All the sniper rifles in this game are bolt-action which can be tedious.

    Game Length: ~54 hours. I did approximately 95% of the game (basically everything minus a few chests and collectibles)

    Final Rating: 3/10. So...I used to be one of the biggest Ubisoft fanboys on the planet. I'd pre-order every Assassin's Creed & Far Cry game on Steam and pre-load them asap. But something happened about 5-8 years back where it seems as if Ubisoft got rid of all of their good developers and replaced them with left-wing political activists. And the resulting games, their respective stories, content, and Ubisoft's overall reputation has taken a [predictable] hit. Their business is failing, stock is in the toilet (lost ~35% of their stock value over the last 3 years when many people have been at home playing video games and watching movies). If Ubisoft wants to avoid being sold off like the running joke that they have become, some solid advice would be to jettison the woke bs they continue to push in seemingly every game they release and get back to making solid games that gamers, who, let's be honest, are mostly straight males, want to play. If not, that's okay, too, I'm happy to spend my money on games that are made for me and not left-wing lunatics. Until then, I'll just keep screening Ubisoft games by borrowing copies from friends before ever paying for a copy from Ubisoft as at this point I fully expect them to keep shoe-horning this type of nonsense into every game they release.

    Oh, and Far Cry 4 is still king of the franchise. By far.    … Expand

    The fictional Island of Yara is based directly on Cuba. The residents even restore old vehicles and keep them running so long that they achieve classic car status, which is a hallmark of Cuban communism. The woke part comes in when they substitute a capitalist government of Yara for the communist government of Cuba. Then there are the standard woke tropes: woke racism, sexism, and heterophobia.

    The gameplay itself is mostly just a reskinned Far Cry New Dawn, whose game mechanics largely move backwards, are worn out, and derivative.

    Although you paid for the game, Ubisoft doesn't agree with the idea that you own it. If you'd really like to own it, then you should finish paying for it through microtransactions. They'd rather develop new ways to charge up your credit card than fix bugs or polish their game. What's the point anyway? They will just push out another turd next year, and by then, they hope everyone will have forgotten about this one.    … Expand

    - The NPC AI is so god damn stupid. Like really. BS.
    - Even on the hardest difficulty it is so ridiculously easy. You take barely no damge at all, regenerating in lightspeed and the helicopters are the most ridiculous thing ever.
    - This stupid UI which wants to constantly make me show the controls for the vehicle or overfloating my screen with icons, it's just horrible
    - This damn boring story.

    Far Cry finally got rid of the most annoying bits (like the infamous towers), but that’s pretty much the extent of the series’ progress. Far Cry 6 doesn’t improve on the core concept in any way. Still, all the expected mechanics work as advertised and keep the game above the line.

    Far Cry 6 is a work that strives for progress while maintaining stability. There are ancestral gameplays of the series that have not been outdated, and some system optimizations and improvements that keep pace with the times. In general, it is still a familiar formula and a familiar taste.

    Upon reaching the end of this review, I’ve come away with a revelation. Yes, Far Cry 6 is the accumulated chemical detritus from years of similar lab experiments, layered and stratified, compounded with time and pressure. But it isn’t a catalyst. I am. I played Far Cry 6 to completion: I pressed buttons to shoot guns and progress the plot; I killed an inordinate number of animals to buy upgrades; I equipped new pairs of pants to make myself stealthier. And at the end of it all, I felt nothing. I was unchanged by the experience.
