    I mean, it's more FarCry 4, but this time with Yetis. Whats not to love? The way they made levelling and crafting is pretty cool, you start from 0, but I had managed to get all my gear back after 2 hours, and unlocked all the skills not soon after.

    Yetis are fun and initially challenging but the addition of a QTE for no good reason brings them down from great to good. The DLC is short which is nice and isn't filled with a bunch of fetch quests. Story is good but every other mission is a defense game which is horrific on many levels including the fact that if you prefer stealth then you are utter outgunned.

Furthermore if you try to play the campaign before getting all the defenses you'll die. Pretty bad approach to me. The fact that you begin the DLC in a new area but why devs feel the need to strip you of all your gear is beyond me. Because the XP awards are so outrageous, you'll finish the DLC with the same stuff and skills you had before so why they felt you needed to repeat all this is beyond me.… Expand

    This game continues to take great potential and fail to deliver on it. The game focuses on a cult that is obsessed with the Yetis and they are cool and could have been interesting but they just don't have any real depth or even a hint of motivation other than desire to sacrifice people. The survival of night raids aspect of it gets very boring and is the central focus of the game. The realThis game continues to take great potential and fail to deliver on it.

The survival of night raids aspect of it gets very boring and is the central focus of the game. The real redeeming factor is the Yetis are cool and fun to fight but they are wasted in my opinion. This campaign could have been great but is wasted In similar aspect to the base game.… Expand

    Le second DLC de Far Cry 4 n’est pas aussi abominable que l’autre, celui du minable Durgesh mais… presque ! En effet, cette nouvelle zone très enneigée fait ressortir en version miniature (par rapport à l’énorme carte originale du jeu principal) tous les défauts d’origine, ce qui les rend plus irritants encore !

En effet, cette nouvelle zone très enneigée fait ressortir en version miniature (par rapport à l’énorme carte originale du jeu principal) tous les défauts d’origine, ce qui les rend plus irritants encore !

    Mais non content de faire (déjà) bien chier, ce DLC en rajoute (encore) une couche ou deux dans le genre bien lourd, histoire de faire chier encore plus ! les défenses obligées de la station-relais notamment avec ses hordes d’ennemis à n’en plus pouvoir ! encore plus lourdingue que les fameux yétis qu’on peut croiser ici et là, lesquels consomment beaucoup d’explosifs… avant de faire éventuellement une indigestion… et de crever (enfin !).

    Ils sont à l’image à vrai dire de tous les ennemis standards, encore plus enragés que d’habitude tandis qu’on tente de les envoyer péniblement ad patres : ces éponges à bastos, putain !! Comme dans le jeu original, l’infiltration est toute pétée, la faute à leur nervosité, aux prompts renforts et bien entendu à leur précision hallucinée et hallucinante : à tous les coups, ils vous cartonnent !

    Sans compter les animaux sauvages (enragés eux aussi) et par exemple, ces saloperies d’aigles qui viennent plus ou moins régulièrement vous faire bien chier, eux aussi ! Tout n’est pas autant galère lors des missions (quand même) mais il est clair que Far Cry 4 et ses DLC reste en général et en particulier le plus casse-couilles et le plus mauvais de tous les Far Cry fabriqués par Ubisoft… malgré pourtant les bases très saines du précédent épisode !

    Cela est dû (aussi) comme dans le jeu principal à l’imprécision notoire de la manette, mal calibrée ainsi qu’à la simulation de la ballistique complètement fumée ; en un mot comme en cent, Ubichiottes a donc bien fait de la merde sur ce coup-là ! ces crevards de baltringues, putain !!    … Expand

    A streamlined version of Far Cry 4, Valley of the Yetis is a worthy addition to the franchise. [Apr 2015]

    You'll love beating the beast in this satisfying, sasquatch-smashing expansion. [May 2015, p.97]

    It is not as daring or clever as Blood Dragon, but still, Valley of the Yetis is a fairly decent expansion, with a whole new area to explore, new mechanics and fresh activities.
