    I like how they're afraid to list "male" and "female" as a choice at the start, just "body type" is available. Western Society circa 2019: celebrate mental illness, scientific facts don't matter, respect the precious fee fees.

    Ignoring the astronomical new level of SJW woke-ness from Ubisoft, its just a bad game overall. It's Far Cry 5 DLC, might even pass for a mod on PC. The

    Ignoring the astronomical new level of SJW woke-ness from Ubisoft, its just a bad game overall. It's Far Cry 5 DLC, might even pass for a mod on PC. The cash-grabbiest cash grab that would make Activision blush. Same map as Far Cry 5, just "reworked" into a Rage knock off.

    Tedious grinding and loaded (again) with MTX's. They were at least conscious enough of what they were doing to not charge $60 at release but this shouldn't have been priced higher than $20.

    Skip it. You're not missing anything.

    Another example of politically correct garbage, a cash-grab and a lazy job by the developers, don't even bother with it.
    It's not even a Far Cry game anymore.

    This game is designed to be tedious and boring. The RPG "elements" added make it feel nothing like a Far Cry game. The design choices all try and push you towards spending extra money in the cash shop. Do yourself a favor avoid this game like the plague.

    Worst Far Cry game ever? So boring and lame missions. I gave up after maybe half a game. Not playing again...

    I thought Far Cry 5 was a great game, but New Dawn is like they gave the assets for Far Cry 5 to a bunch of interns and said, here, see what you can make of this. I gave it a go for two sessions and decided I have had enough. I am trading it in for something else. Maybe the reason I dislike it so much is because I just finished playing Metro Exodus which is a near masterpiece.

    Not a bad game if I’m honest. But my god are there bugs and glitches in this short version of far cry.. detection is really messed up and the story is boringly mind numbing, my suggestion to UBISOFT would be to either make a new farcry with better stealth mechanics and listen to what the users wants or just give up and move on.

    Terrible. Worst Far Cry, period. Highway "Men" are a complete joke as are the lame sisters who control them. Everything feels completely contrived and unnecessary. Stupid weapons and dumber atmosphere in this game. Everything recycled and contrived. When they eventually sell it with all the lame DLC for cheap - don't walk, run!

    Not fun especially when you have to grind in boring repetitive missions. Ended up stopping near the end and watched what happened on YouTube. First Far Cry game where I have done that. Stay clear of this one.

    Desde este juego empecé a ignorar a la saga Far Cry debido a lo poco novedoso que es, me aburre y ya está, no lo recomiendo excepto que esté a 10 euros

    Hardly a far cry from what's come before, but still surprisingly enjoyable. [Issue#225, p.74]

    If you love Far Cry then there is no reason for you not to want to involve yourself with Far Cry New Dawn, as it does everything you would expect and a little bit more.

    I must admit that I find it easy to recommend Far Cry: New Dawn, especially to folks who happen to be fans of the series like I am. While it’s certainly not the best game in the franchise, or even the second or third best, it’s a very solid affair, and one that offers good value for its price tag. You’ll get a lot out of this game, including fun, a good challenge, lots of side content and some very dangerous and difficult beasts to hunt. If you’ve never been a fan of the series, then Far Cry: New Dawn won’t win you over. However, if you’ve ever enjoyed one of these games, or happen to really enjoy this type of experience, it’s well worth picking up.
