This is now my third time watching this Video since it came out. Actually found your channel because of the iReapzz Video and wasn't expecting anything Trophy related but oh boy was I wrong. This has to be one of the best trophy related Videos that exist on UA-cam and its shocking to see how such a good and well put together Video only gets this amount of Views. I know its a niche topic about gaming but people are really missing out. I can't even imagine how long this Video took but it was so worth it. Got my post notifications on for this channel and im patiently waiting for a new Video since no matter the topic, your quality never lacks. Keep going man im a big fan!!
@@xArchivist Not the same guy but I'm glad to hear! Just checked for more content and was genuinely devistated that this is it. Looking forward for whats in store man!
In 2023 a lot of people. Self boosting is your only option, a lot of games are either to grindy, too risky or lan only so online players isnt an option anymore. And you cut the grind down by a LOT. I have 4 ps3s and I paid 30 quid each for them. Its not a massive investment.
I really like Joseph Seed personally, I loved how ambiguous and composed his character was while maintaining a sinister exterior. He always kept me wondering, he was like The Jackal in that way I guess.
Every time I launch that game it makes me feel sick to my stomach like im playing in a desert filled with puke everything about that game is absolutely disgusting although I most say the story , Josepa&his puppets is a way better1 than pagon, pagon felt like a pink flamingo who really wasn’t out there to hurt you (ending tells us why)the setting in 4 was better .now 6 is the best graphical design so far it really rails you in the setting of yara it is absolutely beautiful & I personally like the story of it a little bit better than 4 the look they gave pagon from the beginning I never felt a threat from the 🦩 5 is good story but just out right fucking ugly while 6 is the opposite.
With FC2 I always felt that the Jackals change of heart in the endgame was a ploy to get you to take yourself out, which is why his body was never found because he escaped while you the PC took all the attention going out in a blaze of glory without his even needing to lift a finger
All I'm saying is that I've been a fan of farcry since 3/4. And tbh if they make a farcry with the story direction of 3, action of 4, and music of 5 it would be an incredible experience. Though idk why, but 5 caught me off guard and bring me back cause of the music. The fact each area owned by the seeds are different from the music is wild. The fact that the choir for John represents the fact he has the biggest area and army of the whole county is insane showing the fact the cult always goes after you and takes you to him. While their is only one person singing for faith representing that even though she has people fighting for her they're just mindless zombies under her control. So basically the girl singing his her and only her cause in that part of the county it's all controlled by her to the point she uses the bliss to get you anyway possible. As for Jacob he's quiet, but can slightly hear his people sing. They come sneaky and silent while having wolves sneak up to attack you. And when he comes to get you. He. Will. Get you. No matter what and completely out of nowhere too. Crazy man
Fc5 has been my favourite platinum so far, just for the punch a bull to death trophy 😂 Also, that bliss tune is hypnotic. Hands down my favourite FC track across all the games
18:50 hard to think that because spoiler alert of FC4 Longinus, the arms dealer, it is hinted in the game that he was one of the faction's leaders of FC2 and that he survived you the player. Canonically look like we killed him with a headshot.
Your videos are enjoyable to watch. Hope you blow up simply due to your dedication in making these quality videos when they aren't even viewed by many people
Far Cry 4 was one of my favorite platinum trophies... I went overboard with it on a bet and completely 100% the game unlocked absolutely everything possible... Spent so much more time then I should have
I have no words to describe how much I liked this video: - Dedication: It's completly insane the amount of time that you spent to achieve all plats in the entire Far Cry Franchise, recording all these stuff for years, dude I'm really impressed! - Voiceover: Your voice and the way you talk is so smooth and as a magic trick 50 minutes were for me like 10 minutes while I was watching this video - Editing: Well executed and I like that you have your own style - Personal Story: It's really hard to talk about a personal story on a videogame without being boring, well this is not the case. I'm really glad that I found you months ago with the Ireapzz video, and I really like that you take your time before uploading a new video, I'll hope that people are going to be more interested with your contents! Edit: I never played far cry, I've just watched in these years only some Walktroughs.
I'd love for some more videos exploring absurdly difficult platinum trophies, similar to your first video. I had no clue what crypt of the necrodancer even was before the video, yet I still thoroughly enjoyed it.
I have no issues with the topics/style you tackle in your videos. Whether or not they are personal stories, your delivery and dedication is what makes the video great. If you continue to publish content and grow in popularity my future self will be even more glad to have followed you from the beginning. Keep it up!
This was a masterpiece. I've personally platinumed 4 far cry games, I aspire to get to your level bro. Any chance of an updated video to include Far Cry 6?
Wow, nice video. I fell in love with the FC series when FC3 came out. It is still my favorite FC game because of the setting, the music and of course Vaas. I have not tackled FC1 and FC2. I did not know how bad FC2 is (in terms of multiplayer). I did not know there was a multiplayer part that is so ridiculous. But I also did not know about the cool villain in this game. I enjoy the review from a trophy hunter’s perspective. I liked your love for the game. I probably will never finish the whole series, because of the 2nd game’s multiplayer. I have no nostalgic feelings for the 1st Far Cry. But I am looking forward to Far Cry 6. I hope the story is a bit more tight than FC5. I loved the setting in FC5 but the missions were too lose. You mentioned it. It felt generic. That is exactly what I felt. I did not feel the urge to get to the end which is a bad sign to me. I liked Primal because of the base building feature and the fresh setting. I loved your personal perspective on all of these games. Thanks for sharing it in this video. I enjoyed watching it. Thanks for recommending the FC5 soundtrack. I will check it out. (I forgot all about the game because of the rest but I always love good music in games.) I wish the spoiler warning was big in the video, not just in the beginning of the video description. It took me by surprise but since I was not going to platinum the 1st and 2nd game I went a long. Your passion was too good to not continue the video. The funny thing is: At some point in your video I was like: Oh, I want to go back and Platinum New Dawn. Then your review came. And I immediately changed my mind. Nah, better wait for FC6. My hope for the new main title in the series are the same as yours. One day I want to do a video about my favorite hobby and my passion (trophy hunting). Well done, great video.
Thanks for all the in-depth feedback, I appreciate you taking the time! I'll make the spoiler a bit more prevalent in the description Also, if you ever end up making a trophy hunting, be sure to let me know, I'd love to give it a watch :)
Thanks man! I really, really disliked Far Cry 6. Im considering making a video on it but it would be the most critical and negative video ive made by far
I definitely agree that Far Cry 5 has the best soundtracks if any Far Cry game. From main menu music, to loading music, and then the combat music, and even the radio.
This video deserves wayyyyyyyyy more views, I've been following the channel since the ireappz video, it got me back into cod after a couple of years. I have enjoyed every other video you put out and your content is very high quality, I thoroughly enjoyed this video!
tbh i assumed FC4 was a lesson in listening because legit the whole game could have been avoided if Ajay just waited and he wouldn't have left the country and very clear worst hands and went back home a clean man
honestly an under appreciated game series. most people that dog it nowadays actually grew up playing them including me. big props for shouting out 5's soundtrack aswell
The biggest problem with far cry these days is if you've played 3, 4 etc and you play a new title such as 6, it feels like the same game overall. While I do agree to some extent I do think alot of the hate pushed towards far cry is undeserved
Ubi games are among the most overrated games out there. It's literally the same framework for every single franchise and every game is filled to the brim with meaningless chores. The writing is bogstandard, acting is mediocre and gameplay is okayish but hampered by all the meaningless filler content. Not even talking about the absurd ways they use skilltrees...Ubi wouldn;t know a good skilltree if it hit them in the face. High production value doesn't mean good game. It's creatively bankrupt and the rise of mtx, season passes and all that bs made it even worse. FC is almost as bad as Watch Dogs when it comes to the Ubi copy/paste jobs.
ut thats the thign about far cry 4 is YOU where never in danger, he litteraly says stay here and ill be back which he then takes yuou to the shrine lmao
Man, there is something to be said about trophy difficulty. IMO difficulty comes down to the individual skill and playtime. Trophies like Fortnite are in my 10/10 difficulty cause the amount of time is simply baffling. And then there is the games with dead multiplayer. In this video that was Far Cry 2, the best part of the video. But from my experience, my personal trophy that I will never bother getting is The Last of Us factions. No way am I wasting time, boosting that is also a days long affair.
@@xArchivist I did, no player base and the journey system that you have to complete twice apparently weren’t rewarding. So just like Crysis 3 years ago, the main issue is simple… NO PLAYERBASE!
Far cry 2 is really unique back when 2008, Ubisoft really putting passion and love in this one. It feels like a escape from tarkov made by Ubisoft. Btw the jackal is actually the main character in FC 1.
that last one is a theory, not confirmed by Ubi. It is more canonical that Assassin's Creed shares a universe with FC due to an easter egg in FC3 and FC5. Also, I partially agree on Ubi by 2008 put passion into their game but I believe that FC2 was too detailed and immersive was that Ubi was trying to test their version of the Crytek engine, the Dunia, which is why so hardware intensive for its time.
I just went through and rewatched all of your videos again (because you make amazing underrated videos) and honestly I couldn’t have picked a better time to do this since I recently just platniumed Far Cry 5 and 3 this past week.
@@xArchivist definitely. I ended up organising a 18 hour boosting session with a few other people on the PSN profiles forums who were also going for the trophies
Thanks for the video & talking about the soundtrack by Hammock, as fan of them my excitement was high when I get to know they are working on the soundtrack, brilliant achievement 🤟.
If you made it all the way through this video, please let me hear your thoughts! I'd love to know if this idea turned out well Timeline Intro 0:00 Far Cry 3 2:39 Far Cry 3 Blood Dragon 5:43 Far Cry 1 6:22 Far Cry 4 (+DLC) 9:43 Far Cry 2 14:28 Far Cry Primal 28:43 Far Cry 4 PS4 29:55 Far Cry 5 (+DLC's) 32:22 Far Cry 3 Classic 41:17 Far Cry New Dawn 42:44 Finale 45:22
Only suggestion would be to change the title to something along the lines of “Getting platinum on every far cry game or 100% completion” as you deserve more publicity and viewers for your amazing content as the title atm isn’t all that catchy to new viewers of the channel.
@@zacharybenson3175 Thanks for all the kind words! Yeah I had a difficult time coming up with a title for this video, I thought about including platinum/trophy in the title as well, but only playstation players would understand what that means, i prefer something more universal. Maybe you're right though, I'll see if I change it this week

Just discovered your channel, will watch all your videos because of their amazing quality. The documentary-esque take on your personal experience through these games is the perfect formula to entertain while also showcasing the history on platinum hunting and the games themselves. Awesome job, would like to see a video on FC6 as well.
What a great video, I've only played 3-5 and personally enjoyed them all for different reasons but I'm glad we agree on 5s soundtrack it really did make me want to keep playing even if the missions and characters weren't the most interesting
I understand your points about the dire setting and how characters should act like it however compared to when everyone was in a dire situation in FC2 it was just everyday life at this point for other characters in FC 5 and 4
Great video dude, hope it gets the recognition it deserves. Your commitment with these trophies is crazy, and i find very sweet that you managed to record this experience through the years
This is incredible, I maybe be one of the few people to achievement complete every single one on xbox, as i am getting close I am missing Far Cry 2’s soldier of misfortune, but i do have about 15 hours worth of work into that so far. I need a few more of the co-op achievements for Far Cry 3 xbox 360 and need to finish the final dlc for Far Cry 6, but i have finished the first 3 of escaping each of the villains minds. I have a few trophies left and the dlc on Far Cry 4 xbox 360, and I have only the single player left for Instincts Predator. Other than those I have all of Primal left as I will play it as a reward for completing the rest! I have classic,3 classic edition, both blood dragons, 4 on the xbox one, 5 +all dlc, and new dawn 100% so far! Wish me luck and outstanding job completing all of them!
I have everyone as well even primal, classic, new dawn and blood dragon. All except farcry 6, will get to it soon. I finally platinumed FC2 this year. Your boosting footage brought back some brutal memories, it took me about 3 months of self boosting, and those diamonds in the campaign are a headache. I credit FC3 on PS3 for getting me into trophy hunting was one of my first plats.
Kinda wish i could go back and play a game with the people i used to play with and relive the memories, most of them ghosted me and everyone else and moved away. Sad times when people just disappear.
1 was generic. 2 felt more like tech demo but 3 was truly a powerful game. 4 felt like they wanted another story like that but it felt unfinished and didn’t have the impact.
When it comes to FC4 I actually really liked the fact that the Pagan is so friendly cause by the end of the campaign it really turns out that your involvement made this country even worse. So its interesting showcase that just because you fought for the underdogs... doesnt mean they were good. And Pagan himself cares very little for his people and the civil war going on. And all he said about leaders of golden path... was right.
I actually enjoyed the FC3 co-op mode. I think the thing that threw people off from it was how laggy it was most of the time. Usually it felt like everyone was on ice and as if everything was delayed. I think if that issue was fixed back then it would have been a bigger success.
FC2 is one of the games I got the fondest memories of. Mainly playing multiplayer maps made by friends or by myself. Many friends got the game because it came with an xbox 360 bundle together with halo 3 and gow 2
Love your videos, I really hope the channel blows up for you. I’ve only played FC3 (got the platinum too) and loved it. I need to check out the rest of the series really… but the backlog is real.
Wow. Not just the platinum, but their DLCs too. That's impressive. Here's hoping you have a video covering Far Cry 6. I've personally only gotten the Platinums for: Far Cry Primal Far Cry 5 + its DLC I've played 3, but only casually on 360 and never bothered going for 100%. I've never played 1, 2, Blood Dragon, 4 (or its DLC), or New Dawn. I played 3 or 4 hours of Far Cry 6 during the Stranger Things free weekend and I was bored the whole time. My time expired 5 minutes before I finished the event mission too so that peeved me. I loved 3, Primal & 5 at the time I played them, however, nowadays, I can't stand Far Cry. Who knows, maybe 7 will get me.
Okay, I haven't played any of these games so I'm obviously not gonna act like this is fact because I obviously don't know the ingame lore/cutscenes, but from what you described, Far Cry 2's villian's change of heart seemed pretty supported most of the way, aside from the diamond theft in the middle, he shows mercy the first encounter, and saves your life the second. From what you described, it seemed like he was in a similar situation to you, doing work for both sides and eventually realized a way to end the war.
It just felt random to me that it was this war specifically that made him change his mind. After all, he's been involved in so many wars before, I can't imagine that this one gave him any new perspectives. Thats why it felt contrived to me, but this can be argued against as well. Thanks for sharing your thoughts btw
Thank you so much for this video, it was like a movie. Far cry games are also my favourite single player franchize and any long video related to it makes me excited af
I just love FC4 more than FC3 and FC2 is probably my fav, maybe even side by side with FC4, even tho I understand that FC3 is amazing. FC4 is welcoming, more variety, great side quests, great story, etc. Good franchise, a shame what it became.
Far Cry 3 is still the best Far Cry. The theme, the relationship between protagonist and antagonist, the story, the world and of course the badass Vaas. Far Cry fell after this game.
I loved far cry 5’s soundtrack as well. I loved the songs Help me faith, Build a castle and Only you the most but hell all of them were good those are probably my favorites though.
It's a shame how poorly optimized the console FC1 release was. From braindead AI to extremely bad pop-in, even a duplicated and inverted skybox. That port was clearly rushed to capitalize on the hype of the original PC version, and it shows...Damn Ubisoft
Congratulations. For another game where acquiring all achievements is a journey, I recommend Everhood. Might be fun to cover if you don't hit it yourself.
I likes this video a lot. I' ve only played 3 (I loved it but hated the ending) and Blood Dragon (loved the aesthetics and not taking damage from falling) and now I really wanna play 2: I've heard a lot of things about this game and how it created the emergent gameplay so popular nowadays, and I'm intrigued about the story and how it unfolds. I really like his creative director, Clint Hooking, who has wrote a lot against the ludonarrative disonance and how to scape it, and it appears he achieved his goal! Thank four your work
I love FC2 but I will say if you play it for the story you'll be disappointed, it's kind of a mess lol. Still worth the playthrough though due to the beautiful world and immersive gameplay
@@xArchivist i'm not interested exactly for the story but the narrative and see if it fuses well with the gameplay segments (not like FC3, which deliberately separates dramatic story and fun gameplay) In the way this Spaniard critic sees it, as an evolution on the shooter ua-cam.com/video/xHuvcvHvKlk/v-deo.html ua-cam.com/video/xHuvcvHvKlk/v-deo.html

Same, I also really enjoyed the part with Faith in the fields. It genuinely made you feel intoxicated and question things.

The biggest problem with far cry these days is if you've played 3, 4 etc and you play a new title such as 6, it feels like the same game overall. While I do agree to some extent I do think alot of the hate pushed towards far cry is undeserved
Ubi games are among the most overrated games out there. It's literally the same framework for every single franchise and every game is filled to the brim with meaningless chores. The writing is bogstandard, acting is mediocre and gameplay is okayish but hampered by all the meaningless filler content. Not even talking about the absurd ways they use skilltrees...Ubi wouldn;t know a good skilltree if it hit them in the face. High production value doesn't mean good game. It's creatively bankrupt and the rise of mtx, season passes and all that bs made it even worse. FC is almost as bad as Watch Dogs when it comes to the Ubi copy/paste jobs.
ut thats the thign about far cry 4 is YOU where never in danger, he litteraly says stay here and ill be back which he then takes yuou to the shrine lmao
Man, there is something to be said about trophy difficulty.
IMO difficulty comes down to the individual skill and playtime.
Trophies like Fortnite are in my 10/10 difficulty cause the amount of time is simply baffling.
And then there is the games with dead multiplayer. In this video that was Far Cry 2, the best part of the video.
But from my experience, my personal trophy that I will never bother getting is The Last of Us factions.
No way am I wasting time, boosting that is also a days long affair.
You should give factions a try, the trophies are a bit of grind indeed but you'd be surprised at how much fun that game's multiplayer can be.
@@xArchivist I did, no player base and the journey system that you have to complete twice apparently weren’t rewarding.
So just like Crysis 3 years ago, the main issue is simple… NO PLAYERBASE!
Far cry 3 was actually the first game I ever platinumed in all my years of gaming, gladly would do it all over again
I love 3
Far cry 2 is really unique back when 2008, Ubisoft really putting passion and love in this one. It feels like a escape from tarkov made by Ubisoft.
Btw the jackal is actually the main character in FC 1.
that last one is a theory, not confirmed by Ubi. It is more canonical that Assassin's Creed shares a universe with FC due to an easter egg in FC3 and FC5.
Also, I partially agree on Ubi by 2008 put passion into their game but I believe that FC2 was too detailed and immersive was that Ubi was trying to test their version of the Crytek engine, the Dunia, which is why so hardware intensive for its time.
I just went through and rewatched all of your videos again (because you make amazing underrated videos) and honestly I couldn’t have picked a better time to do this since I recently just platniumed Far Cry 5 and 3 this past week.
Thank you :) And congrats on your platinums as well. FC5 can be a pain with the arcade trophies
@@xArchivist definitely. I ended up organising a 18 hour boosting session with a few other people on the PSN profiles forums who were also going for the trophies
Thanks for the video & talking about the soundtrack by Hammock, as fan of them my excitement was high when I get to know they are working on the soundtrack, brilliant achievement 🤟.
Years later I still am in love with far cry 5s soundtrack its so soothing for my autism it makes me cry
Good ol’ Far Cry 2. The days of the bronze bastards is something that’s better in my memory.
13:41 is not a trophy name someone just spilled their water on their keyboard.
If you made it all the way through this video, please let me hear your thoughts! I'd love to know if this idea turned out well

Only suggestion would be to change the title to something along the lines of “Getting platinum on every far cry game or 100% completion” as you deserve more publicity and viewers for your amazing content as the title atm isn’t all that catchy to new viewers of the channel.
Also amazing video Archivist, I was captivated throughout the whole video and never got board. Definitely my favourite of your videos so far.
@@zacharybenson3175 Thanks for all the kind words! Yeah I had a difficult time coming up with a title for this video, I thought about including platinum/trophy in the title as well, but only playstation players would understand what that means, i prefer something more universal. Maybe you're right though, I'll see if I change it this week

@@xArchivist why aren't the timestamps in the discripsion? I would not have typed this comment if you pinned your comment.
Just discovered your channel, will watch all your videos because of their amazing quality. The documentary-esque take on your personal experience through these games is the perfect formula to entertain while also showcasing the history on platinum hunting and the games themselves. Awesome job, would like to see a video on FC6 as well.
What a great video, I've only played 3-5 and personally enjoyed them all for different reasons but I'm glad we agree on 5s soundtrack it really did make me want to keep playing even if the missions and characters weren't the most interesting
Finally someone who likes FC1 as much as me. But thb for me it's the best one in the series xD
Far Cry 1 is the best in the series)) xD
I understand your points about the dire setting and how characters should act like it however compared to when everyone was in a dire situation in FC2 it was just everyday life at this point for other characters in FC 5 and 4
Never even thought that FCs have multiplayers
glad the algorithm brought me this gem, excellent video
Great video dude, hope it gets the recognition it deserves. Your commitment with these trophies is crazy, and i find very sweet that you managed to record this experience through the years
It's hilarious how optimistic he is about Far Cry 6. First recommended video on the right is "Indisputable PROOF that Far Cry 6 is GARBAGE"
This is incredible, I maybe be one of the few people to achievement complete every single one on xbox, as i am getting close I am missing Far Cry 2’s soldier of misfortune, but i do have about 15 hours worth of work into that so far. I need a few more of the co-op achievements for Far Cry 3 xbox 360 and need to finish the final dlc for Far Cry 6, but i have finished the first 3 of escaping each of the villains minds. I have a few trophies left and the dlc on Far Cry 4 xbox 360, and I have only the single player left for Instincts Predator. Other than those I have all of Primal left as I will play it as a reward for completing the rest! I have classic,3 classic edition, both blood dragons, 4 on the xbox one, 5 +all dlc, and new dawn 100% so far! Wish me luck and outstanding job completing all of them!
I have everyone as well even primal, classic, new dawn and blood dragon. All except farcry 6, will get to it soon. I finally platinumed FC2 this year. Your boosting footage brought back some brutal memories, it took me about 3 months of self boosting, and those diamonds in the campaign are a headache. I credit FC3 on PS3 for getting me into trophy hunting was one of my first plats.
I love how your Dutch accent comes crashing through when you pronounce "conflict" :p
Mighty impressive video!
Kinda wish i could go back and play a game with the people i used to play with and relive the memories, most of them ghosted me and everyone else and moved away. Sad times when people just disappear.
That music in the start gave me chills, the nostalgia and my childhood memories woooooooow
That intro is on par if not better than the outdo pyrocynical had for his far cry 3 video
Nacho survived and took his knowledge well on Rook Island
Its very interesting knowing that's been confirmed the jackal is revealed to be jack carver from the first far cry games.
i liked how he skipped over talking about far cry 2 and just went on to far cry 3 after talking about the first game
Read the title, knew I had to watch even though I have nothing to do with the franchise.
1 was generic. 2 felt more like tech demo but 3 was truly a powerful game. 4 felt like they wanted another story like that but it felt unfinished and didn’t have the impact.
Would love it if you made more videos man, your content is incredibly fun
When it comes to FC4 I actually really liked the fact that the Pagan is so friendly cause by the end of the campaign it really turns out that your involvement made this country even worse. So its interesting showcase that just because you fought for the underdogs... doesnt mean they were good. And Pagan himself cares very little for his people and the civil war going on. And all he said about leaders of golden path... was right.
Thats why you should sit and enjoy crab rangoon until pagan come back
@@Hasanovicc18 This literally the first thing i've done in this game
I actually enjoyed the FC3 co-op mode. I think the thing that threw people off from it was how laggy it was most of the time. Usually it felt like everyone was on ice and as if everything was delayed. I think if that issue was fixed back then it would have been a bigger success.
FC2 is one of the games I got the fondest memories of. Mainly playing multiplayer maps made by friends or by myself. Many friends got the game because it came with an xbox 360 bundle together with halo 3 and gow 2
I'm literally going through not just Far Cry but as many Ubisoft games as I can. Started as just AC then I expanded
Love your videos, I really hope the channel blows up for you.
I’ve only played FC3 (got the platinum too) and loved it. I need to check out the rest of the series really… but the backlog is real.
Thanks man! Good luck on of the trophy lists if you ever end up going back
Hele goeie video, kwalitatief erg goed en ik vind het leuk hoe je van het hele plaatje een overkoepelend verhaal maakt!
thanks :)
Wow. Not just the platinum, but their DLCs too. That's impressive. Here's hoping you have a video covering Far Cry 6.
I've personally only gotten the Platinums for:
Far Cry Primal
Far Cry 5 + its DLC
I've played 3, but only casually on 360 and never bothered going for 100%. I've never played 1, 2, Blood Dragon, 4 (or its DLC), or New Dawn. I played 3 or 4 hours of Far Cry 6 during the Stranger Things free weekend and I was bored the whole time. My time expired 5 minutes before I finished the event mission too so that peeved me.
I loved 3, Primal & 5 at the time I played them, however, nowadays, I can't stand Far Cry. Who knows, maybe 7 will get me.
Nice work, I always wanted to add Far Cry games to my 100%ed games sadly Ubisoft doesn't like adding their games achievements to steam.
Absolute CINEMA with that intro.
Okay, I haven't played any of these games so I'm obviously not gonna act like this is fact because I obviously don't know the ingame lore/cutscenes, but from what you described, Far Cry 2's villian's change of heart seemed pretty supported most of the way, aside from the diamond theft in the middle, he shows mercy the first encounter, and saves your life the second. From what you described, it seemed like he was in a similar situation to you, doing work for both sides and eventually realized a way to end the war.
It just felt random to me that it was this war specifically that made him change his mind. After all, he's been involved in so many wars before, I can't imagine that this one gave him any new perspectives. Thats why it felt contrived to me, but this can be argued against as well. Thanks for sharing your thoughts btw
Having the originial boxset with the map in Farcry 2 REALLY aided me with the diamonds. (x360)
Far cry 6: i’m bout to end this man’s whole career
Congratulations on your goal by the way , i also got every single far cry trophy except far cry 1 & 2 . Never played those game .
Thank you so much for this video, it was like a movie. Far cry games are also my favourite single player franchize and any long video related to it makes me excited af
I just love FC4 more than FC3 and FC2 is probably my fav, maybe even side by side with FC4, even tho I understand that FC3 is amazing.
FC4 is welcoming, more variety, great side quests, great story, etc. Good franchise, a shame what it became.
Can’t wait to see what he has to say about the dumpster fire that is Farcry 6
The whole franchise is easy, in single player, the second they make you do multiplayer trophies, it’s over
Far Cry 3 is still the best Far Cry. The theme, the relationship between protagonist and antagonist, the story, the world and of course the badass Vaas. Far Cry fell after this game.
I loved far cry 5’s soundtrack as well. I loved the songs Help me faith, Build a castle and Only you the most but hell all of them were good those are probably my favorites though.
I'm on Far Cry 4. Once I get the platinum, I join the club. Love Far Cry franchise.
37:00 would have been saved by a "headset users be warned" 😂
i freakin love the intro
It's a shame how poorly optimized the console FC1 release was. From braindead AI to extremely bad pop-in, even a duplicated and inverted skybox. That port was clearly rushed to capitalize on the hype of the original PC version, and it shows...Damn Ubisoft
This is extremely impressive, love these trophy videos and congrats 👏
Such a great video! I absolutely love content like this and hope to see more of it. Subscribed 👍
the intro is sick ngl
Congratulations. For another game where acquiring all achievements is a journey, I recommend Everhood. Might be fun to cover if you don't hit it yourself.
Earned my like and sub immediately with that fire intro! 🔥
Love it, especially the effort to get the FC2 online trophies. Mad!
I likes this video a lot. I' ve only played 3 (I loved it but hated the ending) and Blood Dragon (loved the aesthetics and not taking damage from falling) and now I really wanna play 2: I've heard a lot of things about this game and how it created the emergent gameplay so popular nowadays, and I'm intrigued about the story and how it unfolds. I really like his creative director, Clint Hooking, who has wrote a lot against the ludonarrative disonance and how to scape it, and it appears he achieved his goal! Thank four your work
I love FC2 but I will say if you play it for the story you'll be disappointed, it's kind of a mess lol. Still worth the playthrough though due to the beautiful world and immersive gameplay
@@xArchivist i'm not interested exactly for the story but the narrative and see if it fuses well with the gameplay segments (not like FC3, which deliberately separates dramatic story and fun gameplay)
In the way this Spaniard critic sees it, as an evolution on the shooter ua-cam.com/video/xHuvcvHvKlk/v-deo.html ua-cam.com/video/xHuvcvHvKlk/v-deo.html
It's been a few months since FC6 release we're getting right in the middle of your usual timming BACK. TO. WORK. lol
Glad you like Farcry 2.
Would absolutely love to do thr Far Cry 2 platinum some day but seems the servers are very hit and miss now
Well... you and me definetly have different tastes in music :D
That opening… wow. Fucking amazing
W video man I’m in the trophy hunting community and need more vids like this 👍
Yo the intro is crazy
