    Undoubtedly, Far Cry 5 is one of the best games of this franchise, which has a great story, very good characters, beautiful world and good gameplay as always, but suffers in the artificial intelligence of the enemies, the facial animation and technical parts.

    Answer: 75 characters is between 10 words and 19 words with spaces included in the character count. If spaces are not included in the character count, then 75 characters is between 12 words and 25 words.

    A fun, easy and relaxing game to just cut loose with. Setting is interesting and characters are good enough. I do find the game is very buggy particulalry with the amount characters stop dialogue etc but overall no major problems.

    Far Cry 5 is one of the most fun first-person shooter open world action-adventure games. Thanks to FPS Boost, it runs smoothly on the powerful Xbox Series X, and it always gets a discount.

    One of the most satisfying open-world power fantasies I've ever played. It doesn't waste any time letting you off the leash either. After a relatively brief opening and quickly customizing your character, you're set free to take out the highest-ranking members of a cult however and in any order you see fit to draw out their leader. The structure is very similar to the Just Cause series inOne of the most satisfying open-world power fantasies I've ever played. It doesn't waste any time letting you off the leash either. After a relatively brief opening and quickly customizing your character, you're set free to take out the highest-ranking members of a cult however and in any order you see fit to draw out their leader. The structure is very similar to the Just Cause series in that pulling your targets out of hiding requires you to destabilize their presence in a region by completing missions and destroying their property, among other things. The whole process is a joy thanks to how great shooting feels and the amount of flexibility you're given in your approach to tackling objectives. There's also a healthy feeling of growth as completing challenges, a lot of which you'll do naturally without even trying, rewards you with "Perk Points" you can use to buy a variety of beneficial abilities and any cash found can be spent at shops on attachments for your arsenal of weapons. All of which have the potential to turn you into a nigh unstoppable killing machine. You can even bring a buddy along for the ride on top of being able to recruit a diverse assortment of AI companions with their own unique skills.

    By far the biggest reason this is so much fun though has got to be the map. The Montana countryside setting leads to a lot of distinctive scenery you can't find anywhere else and the world is brought to life by a believable ecosystem that allows for a wide range of naturalistic animal and human NPC behavior for you to notice. It's also a blast to traverse to the point where I often forsook vehicles entirely in favor of reaching my next destination on foot. Did I mention the plethora of activities littered about it to boot?

    Not everything is perfect however. Vehicular combat is a drag because driving in first-person is loose and aiming while behind the wheel is unreliable at best. Particularly in anything that leaves the ground. The load times are fairly lengthy as well and you can't skip the splash screens at the startup before the main menu which is annoying.

    There is an online component called "Arcade" where you can try out player-created solo experiences and deathmatch arenas, or make your own. The actual multiplayer side of it is dead though. Next to nobody is online anymore so unless you just want to build stuff that's unlikely to be seen by anyone else you can safely ignore this portion of the game.

    Based solely on the strength of its single-player (or cooperative) offering alone however, this is still a worthy purchase. It's a massive sandbox filled with enough content to keep you busy for quite a long time and all the toys you'll need to turn it into your very own playground of destruction, that happened to garner a lot of controversy for its story. Which is weird given what a largely inconsequential feature that ended up being. The cutscenes are little more than a minor nuisance that slow you down from getting back to trying to murder the twisted villains talking at you rather than anything to get worked up over. As a result, an interest has been sparked in me for this franchise that I've been entirely content to let pass me by until now. Far Cry 5's commitment to freedom and transforming you into an undeniable force to be reckoned with led to some of the most enjoyable escapist thrills I've found this side of Saint's Row: The Third and IV. I can't recommend it highly enough.

    The characterization of The Father and his friends was fantastic. Graphically it improved. It provided fun gameplay and was not as dull as the previous versions. I just wish the main character of the game could talk and they would give him a good characterization. Overall it was very good and deserves this score

    Кажется ещё не прошёл год как я вновь возвращаюсь в округ Хоуп, штат Монтана, теперь уже со своей женой, которая нынче похлеще меня кладёт хэдшоты и с легкостью нарезает тонны фарша из вражеских юнитов в рамках экшна от первого лица.

После первого захода восторгу моему не было предела и я объявил пятый Far Cry чуть ли не лучшей игрой жанра. Теперь же некоторые косячки мне всё же подметить удалось. Низвергло ли это игру в пучину проходняков? Обо всем по порядку...
    Начав игру по-новой, к своему удивлению замечаю, что весь мой собранный щепетильно набор идеального оружия на максималках, а также все остатки лута и прокачки персонажа они как бы все со мной. Проковырявшись в меню и не найдя как от этого всего добра избавиться, с тяжёлым сердцем, начинаем играть. И да, конечно, сопротивления на доброй половине игры практически не замечаем. Умираем разве что по собственной глупости, случайно выстрелив из гранатомёта в машине или решив полетать с отвесной скалы. Для тех же кто только начинает точно говорю в бою будет непросто ибо оружие толковое зарабатывается потом и кровью, хотя конечно Far Cry сложно назвать суровой игрой жанра. Играем мы с вами за помощника шерифа, который всеми силами пытается выбить из округа Хоуп радикальную религиозную группировку Врата Эдема, во главе которой стоит по-моему лучший антагонист игровой вселенной Иосиф Сид. Но Иосиф не единственный, кто управляет всем этим праведным шабашом. У него есть прекрасные помощники, его семья: жестокий садист Иоанн Сид, фея блажи и забвения Вера Сид и конечно брутальный солдат Иаков Сид. Каждый из этих персонажей настолько харизматичен и так круто раскрыт и подан, что любой из них мог бы стать главным злодеем отдельной части Far Cry, а тут такая щедрость и нам всех четверых дают прямо здесь и сейчас. Сюжет Far Cry 5 невероятно мощный и интересный, однозначно ни одна игра серии с ним даже близко не сравнится и очевидно, что Ubisoft сделали ставку именно на него, так как во всем остальном Far Cry остался по сути прежним. Ну да появилась возможность кастомизации персонажа, картинку подтянули и она выглядит поинтереснее той же четвёртой части. Но, канадские друзья мои, где стихия, где хотя бы ветер? В 2018 тем более в одной из топовых игр современности без этого уже никак. В пятой части у нас помимо вертолета появилась возможность управлять моторным самолетом и это, скажу я вам, просто какая-то пытка - управление безобразнейшее.    … Expand

    On the graphics side , is everything incredible , on HD is awesome , and if you play it on an Xbox One X on 4k …
    The story is a very good one , and I would say (in my opinion) , the most interesting one from all the Far Cry games I've played , because there are 3 different mini-bosses , and then there is 1 boss , that in my opinion is way better than the Far Cry 4 one .
    Another thing I noticed is that this game is very addictive , and it makes you always want to play more and more .

    Far Cry 5 is an amazing game with many flaws. Lots of missed opportunities, an annoying amount of forced missions and a rather weak story are the biggest flaws. The game probably deserves lower than an 8, probably a seven. But its just the sheer amount of fun you can have just messing around in this game more than makes up for it. Rating - 84%

    Degree very freshly finished (46h 13min), that was a great ride. My last Far Cry was part 2, I just wanted the setting and I really liked it.

    Gameplay:

    I really liked the gameplay so far after I got better into the game because I had difficulty aiming at the beginning. The vehicles steer themselves okay, only flying the plane was a bit imprecise, but the helicopter was a lot of fun and the game was clearly simplified. I sometimes had real control problems when looting and / or picking up weapons, especially during the last fight it was all very chaotic (keyword: resuscitation).

    I actually had a lot of fun exploring and looting, but I would have liked a lot more depth, especially in crafting, and when it comes to modding weapons, it was all very thin. Too bad.
    I found the typical Ubisoft packing the map very pleasant in Far Cry 5, I just wanted to, then it is easier to pacify the 15th outpost.

    I actually liked the companion system very much, even if it was only implemented very superficially. However, the AI ​​was sometimes completely stupid, had some glitches and bugs.

    Even typical open world illnesses have been experienced again and again, but they haven't ripped me off.

    Missions / Story:

    So first of all the side missions and individual tasks (prepper - hiding places, for example) were sometimes really strong, so I actually had the most fun. Among the individual missions, whether main or side story, there was one or the other pearl that made me
    really thrown on the floor with laughter (Cattle and Marvin Gaye: awesome).

    Regarding the story, I'll just say that, as already mentioned at the beginning, I liked the setting very much, but how everything turned out was ok, but not really innovative and surprising. You actually knew quickly what it was going to lead to, especially because there are enough hidden and less hidden clues.

    Graphic:

    I can't complain, I liked the graphics and the region was presented nicely. Cut scenes looked really nice too, as did the now famous facial animations.

    Conclusion:

    All in all a really great shooter that a little more innovation and the courage to go deep would not have hurt. 8/10 sects - outposts.    … Expand

If you don't like games with layers, you will miss out on half the game, but you might still have a good time anyway (you'd just really hate the ending as it wouldn't make sense).

    Personally, I like the ending, as the moral ambiguity of the Far Cry series is what I like best about it. In Far Cry 5, your ending is a lose/lose and the question you're really being asked is 'what counts as living?' or 'what are you really fighting for - the people, or the numbers?'

    It's a very thinky ending. Similar to the feeling I had at the end of watching Inception. The question of whether you made the right call or not is left up to what you value.

    There is no 'ultimate good' ending. All endings have huge negative consequences.

    Far Cry 4's gameplay was too similar to Far Cry 3's for my tastes. I couldn't stick with it because it just reminded me how good FC3 was and how I'd rather be playing that. Far Cry 5 deviates from that just enough that the gameplay is interesting, not enough that it's no longer a Far Cry game. There's always something to discover and do. There is a lot of content and you will definitely get your moneys worth on time alone.

    I did get sick of the god/guns/troops/patriotism narrative but they were trying to portray a conservative US state , so it's justified. Just very cringe if you're not in the states.    … Expand

    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 is exactly what you would expect from a Far Cry game and not much more. It does the open world really well, but the bland story drags it down. The game touches a sensitive subject, but doesn’t have guts to actually say something and couldn’t convince me even for a minute that what’s happening could be real. What the franchise obviously needs is a new beginning, a leap of faith Assassin’s Creed Origins was brave enough to take. [05/2018, p.56]
