    Great graphics! With that said the game felt rushed and wasn't polished. The series hasn't evolved much since FC3, which in my opinion was the best game of the series. Perhaps my expectations were too high but I was disappointed in particular with the character models.

The game overall felt like a great paint job but they forgot to put the drop cloth on the new carpeted floor.
    A splash of RDR, a splash of Crysis and there you have it...nothing more/nothing less and failed to move the needle forward. I'll give this a generous 6 out of 10. Ubisoft went soft and missed a golden opportunity.    … Expand

The graphic is good, even in the old generation they have a glimpse. The story telling is amazing, how the characters interact with others, and how they develop in the game are so natural. I just get a little upset about the end they choose (sincerely i prefer to forget about it), but the other aspects are pretty good. The AI lacks of intelligence, which is horrible in a game like farcry, and sometimes it gets annoying. The activities in the game are several, but simple. My conclusion: the game is good, it can entertain for a long time if you like farcry. It's not the best of the franchise, but the ambience in my opinion is. It worth to play.… Expand

    a fun game, with amazing visuals but comparing the previous Far Cry's it lacks a lot in different areas, but still if you're not looking for story this is a fun game.

    Après avoir fini le jeu, je ressors avec un sentiment très mitigé. Car le synopsis était à la hauteur mais Ubisoft pèche encore une fois par ses quêtes ennuyeuses. Le jeu n’est pas mauvais mais il n’est pas excellent non plus. C’est un jeu moyen qui propose par moments de belles séquences.
    Pour moi, j’ai aimé le début et la fin du jeu.

    I really wanted to like FC6 but too many things got in the way of my enjoyment. For one, it's still full of quite a few bugs years later.

    Just far cry 5, but better mechanics. Still the game is pretty bad. Very low replay value. The "hardest difficulty" isn't even hard. Anton is a better villian than Joseph, but at the same time Anton is played by giancarlo. Basic ubisoft game 7/10

    “Ubisoft” has become the generic term for any open world game with generic gameplay. Far Cry 6 is a very Ubisoft game, and I could care less about it.

Far Cry 6 is a very Ubisoft game, and I could care less about it.

    All the elements of modern gaming are there: on-line connection for some reason; annoyed; dialogue between mission because game developers hate giving players a moment of silence, mission givers, map icons, and all the usual guns and vehicles. Far Cry 6 also continues the trend of colorful gaming by splattering everything with red paint for the bad guys and blue paint for the hood guys. Every system, down to the crafting menu, has the most basic, generic look and feel. Polished? Yes, but then that polish is cut and pasted across the entire game world. The gameplay feels exactly like the last Far Cry I played, which was Far Cry 4. Gun don’t really feel good. Driving doesn’t really feel good. And hiring enemies with a machete feels terrible. You charge to cut them in half, and they effortlessly knock you down. The only new game element is the “Supremo”, a backpack rocket launcher. This serves as the ultimate ability you see in many other games like Destiny and Overwatch. Everything does work, and I’m this age of busted releases, I give Ubisoft credit for not making a broken game.

    What makes these kind of generic open world games special is the open world. Give the player an interesting challenge and they will do it. Give the player a lot of cookie cutter based, and they will become bored and stop playing. That’s what happened with me. I could see the entire arc of the game after the first few mission. Doesn’t help that this game is so much like Just Cause 2, and Just Cause 2 made the revolution more fun.

    All in all, I think Ubisoft needs a change in leadership. As an organization, they just don’t have the taste or desire to make anything memorable. As far as I am concerned, they could give their games away. Indeed, I played Far Cry 6 over a free to play weekend. Despite every monetary reason to play this to the end, I couldn’t do it. Almost anything is more fun than Far Cry 6. I also couldn’t get past the first mission in Assassin’s Creed Valhalla, and I downloaded that via PlayStation Plus Extra. I probably won’t touch another Ubisoft game for the foreseeable future.    … Expand

It's just ridiculous and reminds me of something from the category of the mid-2000s. Although the horses themselves are visually worked out until the moment you sit on them. Automated driving to your destination is just ridiculous, I don't even have words to describe this process. In general, marketing is on top, but in fact, the game turned out to be boring, although it could become a masterpiece if individual mechanics and the plot were finalized.… Expand

    Puh mal wieder typische Ubiformel. Langweilige Story, langweilige Nebenmission. Das Gunplay ist gut, das Gameplay nach 1 Stunde schon ausgelutscht. Genau so wie das letzte Ghost Recon, stupide immer das gleiche und das Stunden lang auf einer riesigen Map. Nur einige Charaktere sind teilweise interessant gezeichnet. Optisch ist die Welt okay, aber von Nextgen weit entfernt.

    Очень тоскливая часть. Нет запоминающихся персонажей, нет драйва и веселья. Единственна тема, которая хоть как-то оправдывает все это действие- это борьба с диктатором и его армией мразоты.

    The same game that we see every year. Story is quite forgettable, missions are more or less all the same with the same old recipee. Main character is dull and boring. The game is not bad, but also it is nothing fascinating or inovative. Only two good things are Giancarlo Esposito and haptic feedback feeling when shooting. Everything else is ''meh''.

    Far Cry 3 and 4 were the pique of the series so far, Far Cry 5 had it's moments but Far Cry 6 had real potential. A somewhat gritty and interesting story, with interesting characters and somewhat based on a real revolution.
    Far Cry 6 pulled me in with a trailer that hasn't impressed me so much since the earlier Assassin's Creed games (also a Ubisoft series), stunning music, great visuals, and Giancarlo Esposito as the antagonist.
    Plus it's the first PS5 Far Cry game, so hopes were high.
    All that being said, the story of Far Cry 6 was pretty poor. There was tons of potential, but it didn't really go anywhere.
    Firsty, open world games just tend to suck at narratives. You spent tens of hours doing side quests and battles for a 5 minute cutscene of the antagonist every now and then. Few games managed to make the stories interesting despite being open-world. Assassins' creed 1-3 actually did manage to pull it off (again a ubisoft series).
    Far Cry 6 did one thing well, and that was the protagonist. Normally Far Cry protagonists are shells with no personalities that the player is meant to insert themselves into, however, Far Cry 6 has a great protagnist for once. And the Protagonists were well cast, and had potential, but nothing really came from their characters. WIthout spoiling, the plot just falls flat.

    I'm glad I waited for Far Cry 6 to be on a sale, I think I'd be more upset if I'd spent hundreds of dollars on it.    … Expand

    Toujours la même recette depuis Far Cry 3. Il serait temps de miser sur une prise de risque plutôt que de sortir toujours le même open world générique. Certes le dépaysement est toujours au rendez vous, mais c'est comme ci on proposait toujours le même repas, mais chaque jour avec un nouvel ingrédient. Cela reste le même repas.

    Ubisoft's signature franchises continue to deliver on what the fans have come to expect and Far Cry 6 is no exception. A sprawling sandbox with tons to do and perfect escapism for a few hours… a few tens of hours. Fans of the series or Ubisoft's style, in general, will want to pick this one up, those who haven't ever clicked with them will find nothing new here to change their mind, with only a few changes that just do not push the boat out or move away from the formulaic. Most exciting though, is the upcoming DLC: a season pass that promises to give players a whole different experience. Stepping into the shoes of the villains of the previous games, starting with Vaas. Stay with us here at Cubed3, where we'll be covering it soon.

    The new episode of the Far Cry series really tries a lot to find new ways how to enjoy the game, and at the same time it relies on the unattainable depth that the charismatic Giancarlo Esposito was supposed to give to the game. Instead, players again receive a disparate mishmash that is increasingly moving away from both the original Far Cry idea and the Just Cause sandbox.

    If I’m being honest, my frustrations with the marketing’s focus on the worst caricatures of Latinx people made me brace myself for a racist triple-A experience full of gross clichés and awkward attempts to be apolitical. Instead, I was surprised to find that more thought than I expected was put into its depiction of Latinx people. Although it isn’t perfect — those cringeworthy lines! The grind of finding gear! — it’s better than what I initially expected, and that counts for something.
