    This is a buggy piece of sh*t also as Ubisoft launcher. I do not understand, how they dare sell so raw game, and why it's so hard to hire good developers for making a good launcher. It was one of my favorite franchises.

    The game is broken, convoluted, and has somehow managed to take all of the good things about the Far Cry series and remove them.

    Empty open world, barely any vehicles on the roads.
    The characters are just lame and high maintenance, disgusting.

    The only interesting characters are shown in cutscenes (the main antagonist and his son).
    Don't waste your money on this copy-pasta Ubisoft open-world.

The game is buggy, like I had a main mission where the enemies just became invisible...The pets are cool but useless except for maybe one of them, if you have ally AI they are absolutely useless,they are like Mr Bean running in a circle. The enemies can pinpoint you and send bullet hail to finish you if they wish, mainly during the main story throwing constant stream of grenades, rockets, annoying **** fire and pinpoint precision shots even if you are in cover, and helicopters.You get used to it, but everything depends on your gear chosen on occasion, which means you will never feel you leveled up, since the game punishes you if you advance the story and do side quests , as everything gets leveled up too. There is absolutely no sense in doing the "side mission" as everything just gets harder. This game sucks, its boring, overpriced, a complete copy paste of former far cries and at the same time sucks every bit of enjoyment out of it. I don't even want to talk about the woke propaganda. Just don't, don't buy. Even if its discounted. I wish I could get back my time playing this game and doing something productive,like cleaning someone's latrine. Expand

    For example, I would spend hours farming to upgrade a camp facility to 3. Then it would degrade the facility's level upon exiting the game and coming back, but it would save the spent resources. I made sure the game autosaved multiple times after upgrading the facility. It even saved everything I did afterwards, like the weapons I purchased and modifications I made to them.

    If you google this issue you will see others reporting this problem since release and nothing has ever been done about it. Sure all Far Cry's have had their bugs, but one that steals a ton of resources from you? I just can't do it. Not until this has been resolved. I emailed customer support and I will update this review if they solve the issue. Until then, I will cut my losses and not be wasting any more time on this game.

    Soulless. I genuinely do not understand how this game avoided getting panned by critics, but what do you expect from Ubisoft? Another game with a nonsensical story, bland open world, zero innovation, and outright removal of fun mechanics to meet deadlines.

    Soulless. I genuinely do not understand how this game avoided getting panned by critics, but what do you expect from Ubisoft? Another game with a nonsensical story, bland open world, zero innovation, and outright removal of fun mechanics to meet deadlines.

    Gun mechanics are awful, each gun feels exactly the same. Even if one gun felt particularly good, you probably wouldn't be able to use it because they opted to gate weapons, offering clear winners and losers. Gear sets are an abject failure, not because gear sets are bad, but because the bonuses they offer often should be base features or should be allotted to a perk system, not mutually exclusive. I played with the parkour set the majority of the time because to make that gearset viable, they decided to nerf the **** out of movement speed.

    What in the world are be doing with map discovery? No towers removes one of the most fun systems in far cry in an effort to have players go out and explore every corner. The issue with that is this map is essentially vacant. The world we are expected to uncover is just repeated poorly animated trees and shrubbery. Forcing players to speak to NPCs to uncover bases and checkpoints is just poor game design when you consider you speak to the same girl all across the map about 50-60 times just to figure out what you need to do. It is actually the same exact model of the npc. Has she been cloned? Does she just run around the map all day?

    Now let's talk about the story. The story makes no sense from the start. Dani "I'M LEAVING YOU CAN'T STOP ME" 5 seconds later "IM STAYING." Ok? Villain is almost entirely absent from the game. You see Castillo maybe once every two hours in meaningless cutscenes. You have pretty much zero interaction with him throughout the game. All other characters are poorly acted and scripted. There was a level of cringiness in the dialogue that had me question whether a group of high schoolers wrote the script. This game made me realize that with this writing team it probably was a good option for Ubisoft to go with a silent protagonist all these years. In fact, after this game, PLEASE GO BACK TO A SILENT PROTAGONIST, YOU CAN'T WRITE TO SAVE YOUR LIFE.

    Now finally let's talk about gameplay. The only way I can describe it is by screaming REGRESSION. Sure, the bullet sponges in new dawn weren't fun, but they were better than this disaster. Check points are braindead easy, kill 3 enemies and blow up a sign. Oh a tank shows up and you're in combat? Blow up the sign and it disappears. Outpost are somehow even easier than checkpoints. NPC pathing is so incredibly slow, they don't really stop to have conversations with each other, detection speed is ridiculously slow, and you often have about a football field of rooms between one enemy and the next. That last point goes hand and hand with the movement speed nerf. When crouched, you move about a cm a second. When running full speed you move about a foot a second. 90% of my game was probably me just running. Running to enemies, running to vehicles, running to supplies...not because I opted to run, but because there was no other option and movement speed was nerfed so hard , running took up the most time.

    You were looking forward to boss fights? Great, but they die in one hit and behave like every other NPC. I was so excited for a helicopter fight my first boss...then I fired one rocket and he died mid dialogue. Second boss, shot him in the head died mid dialogue. I'm all for realism in games, but in a game where Ubisoft avoided realism and believability throughout why the **** is the only realistic mechanic during boss fights -- a place where realism SHOULD go out the window to make them harder than other encounters...

    Despite what ragers thought about 5 and New Dawn there were some bright spots that may have been implemented to make 6 a great game. Instead Ubisoft took what everyone loved about Far Cry and threw it out the window for 6. What happened to towers? What happened to all weapons being viable, allowing you to pick and choose how you want to play? What happened to meaningful hunting? Where are the funny and unique notes in open buildings and why did you replace them with the same 3 copy paste notes? Where are the hard boss fights? Where is the villain? Where are the towers? Where are the side missions? Finally, where is the writing? This game is the perfect case study of regression in video games, and was one of the worst games I have played this year. I could not recommend this game to people who like Far Cry, nor would I recommend it to someone who has never played the franchise.

    I really liked all of the Far Cry games, but this one is really lame. It seems like just a lazy remake of a combination of the other games and nothing new whatsoever. It's not immersive, just your typical go on mission BS, and has no real plot that is worth anything. it's summed up best as LAZY. I was expecting so much more.

It’s a weak copy and paste job. There are some improvements but no perks as you start off with almost every ability. This makes the treasure hunts far less rewarding and I found that most of them were boring anyway. The new workbench system is in my opinion way more complicated than it needs to be and I honestly got bored and just stuck with the guns I needed. I emphasise NEEDED because certain enemies are weak to certain bullets and there are tanks and helicopters in this game that can survive multiple rocket launcher attacks. There was nothing more satisfying in previous games then pulling out a rocket launcher and annihilating a vehicle in one beautiful explosion. Now it’s a painful, nonsensical experience. The enemies also respawn pretty quickly in this game and it’s beyond frustrating

    This story is beyond weak and filled with hard left politics. The game tells you that the American dream isn’t for people of your colour and drops so much propaganda that you feel like you’re playing “CNN: The Game”. The game will also constantly remind you that women are strong and brave just in case you forget.

    I didn’t mind the addition of horses in the game but why can I call my car over but not a horse? And get this, so when you call the car over, it doesn’t always come to you. You have to run at it and then the guy who brings it over takes forever to get out of the car and then he stands in the way of the door so I always found myself getting in through the other side and just switching seats. This is just BASIC STUFF they have gotten so wrong. Like it wasn’t play tested or something.

    So as you can imagine, all the characters are insufferable, egotistical losers who make you do literally everything. EVERYTHING. There’s a whole mission where you’re basically a roadie and you have to set up the stage for this God awful band that’s going to play some “totally rockin”, “How do you do fellow kids?” rap music. After you do that, you’re also their entire security. So whilst hundreds of soldiers come down to shoot up the concert (and you wish you could as well but you unfortunately have to side with these arrogant posers) they’re up there singing and dancing like they’re making a difference whilst you murder everybody who tries to stop them.

    Are you ever shown a decent amount of respect? No. I genuinely hate games like this where your character has given these people everything and in the next scene, they treat you like dirt again. It’s like your girlfriend’s mate, who despite you buying drinks for all night, says to you “If you hurt her, I’ll kill you”. I would desperately like to interrupt her and say “Yeah? What’re you going to do, you fat lard?”
    You could destroy these people in seconds but your character just takes it so you end up rejoicing instead of being sad when certain characters die.

    The graphics are disgusting for PS5. They had no right to charge what they did for this game.

    Tl;dr:
    This is the worst Far Cry game I have ever played. It deserves the low rating I’m giving it because of the low effort they put in actually making the game. It’s recycled gameplay has been made worse. The characters are hateable, the story is weak and the ending is lame.

The gameplay is basic, with the hostile AI making stormtroopers look good on the "Action Mode" difficulty. Voice lines often end up missing, evidenced by the subtitles appearing but no dialogue can be heard. Textures often don't match with the geometry of objects, with bullets or enemies often clipping inside objects. The only redeeming feature is Guapo, the starting 'Amigo' companion who is a crocodile wearing a shirt. For a game released in 2021, this feels like a game released by an indie studio in 2012.

    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.
