The problem with Ubisoft is that they have found the optimal amount of effort to put into their games and still get enough money in return and I mean that in the worst way possible.
Indeed. In every aspect, not just effort, they have found the perfect formula for the open world pseudo game-as-a-service model. That's why I call every open world game, no matter the company, a ubisoft template game. Because of course everyone making an open world game just imitates the king of the shit pile. Why wouldn't they, with how our version of capitalism works. To be fair, it's kind of awesome how they've managed to distill the format down to perfection. For their purposes, that is, which is monetary gain to the detriment of everything else.
@@LyaksandraB the consumers basically say that they are fine with that so, while change may be good, an expensive franchise that can make back its money by doing true sequels will be a smarter move. And even if a Far Cry game fails, would they change the formula or stop making the games?
EXACTLY! They honestly have some of the best developers and they could make games that have nothing less than the best games out there, IF they'd manage them to do that, but they do just enough to grab all the money they can :)
@@mr.mostwanted6389 It's funny. At the time FC2 was lambasted for being another brown shooter and mixed response to the weapon jamming/durability and having a restrictive open world. Today those things make it unique and a focused experience compared to not just other Far Cry games but open world games in general.
One of the things that annoyed me was that there was no consideration of the reality of how guerillas actually fight. They had big signs up on their bases that were out in the open and didnt try and hide or use hit and run tactics at all.
bruh, you do realize this is a video game and in no way, shape, or form was it trying to be realistic or a simulation. You even have a alligator with a gold tooth as a pet in which you can command......................................
I beat the story of this game, and the further I got in, the less I was enjoying it, and I realized something reading notes and doing sidequests. The amount of people dying on a regular basis (according to 'canon' events written down and spoken of) is so absurd that almost nobody should be left on the island. Every member of Special Forces has to kill their parents as part of some loyalty test as an example. and despite how cartoonishly evil Castillo and his government is shown to be, I was rooting for him at least a little bit
Once you win, the island would have fallen into chaos. All the groups of people you helped would turn into local warlords and eventually you'd have civil war. I imagine our character would have been killed off once she was no longer useful.
@Sick_Pencil You could argue what'a what's wrong with modern Hollywood too. Not only are the writers inexperienced, they don't even read the right kind of material to learn how things would be.
@@quademasters249 What just doesn't make sense is how Far Cry 4 had an exceptional handle on how this all worked - fantastically done with Pagan Min and the Royal Army of Kyrat and the struggle between progress and tradition, depending on whether you sided with Sabal or Amita. All they had to do was hire the same writers as Far Cry 4. But nope, Ubisoft settled for a bunch of zoomer woke-tards, who filtered the plot through a western-centric lens, filled with "current thing" cultural zeitgeist cringe, rather than observing the actual history of Communism in Cuba and Socialist despots across other South American countries and how it was nationalistic guerilla forces like the Contras that attempted to overthrow the dictatorships.
@@snozzlehead92 I'm sorry dawg but you invalidated your entire opinion the moment you unironically use the phrase "zoomer woketards". Please take a shower and get off twitter.
The thing about this game that broke me was the fact that the 45-70 rifle, a caliber used to hunt moose that weigh several hundred pounds, takes 4 torso shots to kill even the lowest grunts.
Dont know why you're expecting accurate caliber depictions in a game that has a gun that shoots records that also plays music while you hold it out. Its Far Cry not fucking Arma lmao. You people set yourselves up for disappointment I stg.
@@unclepecos3512 people want more realistic guns in a more realistic looking setting just like they did in far cry 2 with the gun jamming I loved that feature yes the gun jamming was inaccurate but still cool they tried.
Y'know, for an island nation that's supposedly been "frozen in time" since the 1960s due to a naval blockade and an embargo, a questionably high number of Yara's denizens seem to have relatively easy access to modern technology such as smartphones and the internet.
Actually kinda true to life if Yara is a clone of Cuba. Cubans have some surprising strategies like downloading all the latest shows on the mainland to a USB and smuggling that into Cuba to be copied and distributed. And if prisoners can get a hold of a smartphone then it's not impossible for Yarans/Cubans to have them too.
@@hiloskymaybe if the game actually bothered to take inspiration from those strategies and show yaran smugglers circumventing that embargo, or explain why the subjects of an isolated dictatorship have high speed fiber optic internet, it'd be interesting. but they do neither so it's all just lazy handwaving
I love how it’s clearly supposed to represent communism, but the game calls them “fascists”. Gotta love the woke devs who probably sympathize with Marxism and refused to label the regime communist.
@@flouserschird I normally despise the usage of the word "woke" and think anyone who uses it unironically is ridiculous, but this time you're 100% right. It's wild
As a FarCry 6 enjoyer that has well over 100 hours in the game I will say that I 100% agree that this game is an absolute garbage dumpster fire Edit: I spent so much time playing was mostly because i played it the way it was not meant to be played. I just made my character the fastest living organism in the solar system and played it like it was Doom Eternal all over again Also gahtdam this got a lot of attention
I remember watching the trailer and Diego was a huge part of it. I thought the game would let us play as him and choose to either support his father, play as the bad guys basically. Or rebel against his father. I always wished that Farcry 4 allowed you to play with Pagan Min with that secret ending.
He says a ton of intentionally wrong things, as a joke. Stands to reason he’s playing into the fact BF1 is a horribly inaccurate representation of WW1.
This was my first far cry game and I absolutely loved this game even to this day but as I started playing the older far cry games I realized how much things were reused from older far cry games and that this game is just a result of inbreeding from older far cry games and the same formula.
If you go through the far cry games chronologically you see even more cracks. They get some stuff right in every game they make, then they don’t implement that mechanic in the next title. Or they improve what everyone’s favorite part of the previous title was, by breaking it and saying ‘YOU’RE WELCOME!!!!’ on repeat like you owe them money.
plus they are shoving more and more dei into each game, fc6 is the most woke of all of them. right from the very beginning where the game tries to show you how woke they are with the disabled peoples options being turned on by default from the moment the game starts and you have to piss around for a bit to figure out how to turn that crap off.
@@pythro_ I mean, there's the countless mundane missions in GTA V like the tow truck mission and the shipping crate mission. I love Rockstar, but let's not act like they don't have an issue with filler missions that aren't relevant to anything else you do in the game.
@@8leggedhorse FIller missions in online are one thing, but the game doesn't really show you specific mechanics and make them redundant later. Most of the mechanics they show you are for the purpose of giving you more tools for the sandbox
@@pythro_ So exactly what Far Cry 6 does. Love how easily you show your hypocrisy. It's bad when Ubisoft does it, but when Rockstar, the company you gave hundreds of dollars through buying sharkcards does it, it's suddenly perfectly ok? Lmao.
I remember seeing so many reviews at launch calling this GOTY but all they really emphasized was how good of an actor Gus from Breaking Bad was, like that translates to fun gameplay or something.
I recently watched a video on the ai mechanics of the doom demons and It was incredibly nuanced for the time. And then we have far cry 6 where you can shoot a guy in the throat and nothing happens.
I didn’t like the supremo’s, just felt like a cop out, without using them the combat got more tense but I would’ve appreciated home made equipment then a backpack. A mortar you can set up and pre target and launch remotely. Or upgrades to the auto turret. I think they should’ve emphasized the home made element. Showing us make land mines, claymore, molotovs. I would like a bouncing Betty that blast napalm
They should've actually make you feel overwhelmed in the combat, and maybe make the helicopters pop flares to counter the supremo, maybe only letting one rocket get through.
yeah am i crazy or did previous far cry games sometimes felt like too much was going on all the time. like, i just replayed 4 and you can't look at the damn map without a bear, an eagle, honey badger, soldiers, and drunk motorists all looking to get a piece of your ass
They do in some missions you literally are encircled by dozens of soldiers and sometimes helicopters and tank and have to slide around while dodging bullets
Holy shit man. The grandma joke at 7:14 made me spit my coffee all over my desk. thanks for the golden content as always. My favorite little boy in the whole wide world.
yeah it's one of renn's jokes, he will usually do and say a lot of shit to keep you entertained, he doesn't go to auto pilot the review like basically any other reviewer, that's why you see multiple chapters, multiple jokes, he does that even better than act man and kelsi, or fleakazoid which are all real good reviewers...
@@aregulargenericname8794 what are your talking about?? I'm talking about like renn's channel and his jokes and nuances, while you are over there saying something "seems like cope".... Well do you mind telling us what it is?
Bear in mind that the Farcry 3 formula is used in more than just farcry. You may think with Farcry that it was just seven games with the same open world formula but you have to toss in Watch Dogs and any number of their open world Tom Clancey games as well as later Assassins Creed Games and any other open world game from Ubisoft that I may be forgetting. So really it's more like 20-30 games with the same kind of formula and people noticed that long before Farcry 6.
I played Rage 2 earlier this year (2024) and as soon as I opened the map, I realized I'm playing a fucking Far Cry game. Hell, it might as well have been a Far Cry spin-off like Blood Dragon set in the Rage universe.
I thought this one would be more immersive due to the story and crafting system but it felt like a beta version of the 5th game and a dlc for the 4th game. If it doesn't have the throwing system in 5 then I rather refund it.
Ubisoft is the perfect representation of the current issues in gaming. AAA Games are products made to please investors and gready higher-ups in the company. All passion is removed. The passion from the developers is wasted as the features they do get to create are ruined by short deadlines, crunch and being mismanaged. All for a game players don't even enjoy. But we buy the games anyway.
In Far Cry 3, it was streamlined to be more of a stealth shooter. Far Cry 4 had more of the same with an open idea of how to approach. Sure, in both of those, you *could* go loud, but that creates tension and challenge you likely cannot overcome early to mid-game. Far Cry 5 was a little more lenient on its adaptability. But it had it's moments. There was a reason for fauna to be interacted with as well as flora. You also don't give over any of the previous locations to the worst people possible.
Far Cry 3 introduced the outposts system and the game sold well. So Ubisoft took it and added more outposts in the later games while making the AI as braindead as possible.
@@Legion849 I went through and pulled up with Rambo First Blood pt. 2 equipment and aced every outpost. I got no alarms on most of them. *Most* of them.
They need to stop implementing rpg elements in the game. it makes it feel terrible. when you beat the game everything levels up with you. it's a terrible mechanic and should not be in a first person shooter.
bro I’m actually sobbing right now how can you call the German army in ww1 nazis. This shit actually completely ruined me man I’m crying rn. Even as a joke that’s not ok man
I honestly really don't care much for stories in games but I thought Far Cry 6's story (I skipped everything between Blood dragon and 6, so no idea if the others are the same) so offensivly bad it seriously bothered me. Like the tone of this game only knows two extremes - either its really messed up hard stuff or the goofiest out of whack shit imagineable. If they just allowed you to kill everyone at the end and nuke the island and its degenerates that would have been a worthy ending after being subjected to these "people" for the entire story.
I have never liked a Far Cry story, ever, 3's was outlandish and oddly paced, 4's was boring and 2D, 5 had some good moments but strange implementation and 6 was painfully drawn out and incredibly dull with forgettable characters, thing is the most captivating part of Far Cry, the gameplay, was also shallow and empty feeling to the point that the main reason anyone plays these games seems to have evaporated. besides Dani the only character I liked was Jonron as she felt the most like a genuine human being in their early 20s while also coping withing a dictatorship but even then, she left very little impact.
Until i saw what was going down in Redfall, this game actually was the record holder for the worst AI experience I've had in a game. Gunfights were way too easy because they could never find me. Enemies just took way too long to react and i was playing on the hardest difficulty they offered.
idk man whats-her-face from the first province the game nudges you towards running around in circles in the middle of that rescue mission & the pelican you need to follow to unlock the AR-15 flying into a wall are pretty horrendous, Redfalls enemies seem a marginally better compared to what I experienced on my one and only play through of FC6
@@unfortunately_fortunate2000 the reason I put redfall a notch below FC6 is at least FC6 has AI pathing. Not good AI pathing that's certain but it is there. I haven't played Redfall but from what I've seen, they can't figure their way around basic obstacles like boxes. I must've played like 10 or so hours of FC6 and the only thing I remember is trying to find enemies that would give me a challenging gunfight. The video didn't mention this but the whole "hiding your gun mechanic" was so dumb. Like 1) The AI is so asleep that they barely react when you're visibly armed anyway and 2) Here I am in a menacing black and red hoodie with anarchist designs and a literal missile backpack but once I tuck my fucking M16 in pants (I guess?) they're supposed to be like "nothing to see here." 3) AND HERE I AM WITH SAID MENACING CLOTHES, A MACHETE, A MISSILE BACKPACK, AND AN M16 AND THEY STILL CHOOSE TO PRIORITIZE PICKING FIGHTS WITH RANDOM YARANS OVER ME. Yeah I dunno now that you got me recalling my experience maybe FC6 might be worse.
I think my next video will be about a good game for once! The problem is though, whenever I speak positively about a game no one ever watches the video. People love negativity, so I'm gonna try and figure out how to package positive content so that it performs better
@@RennsReviews Could you frame it as pointing out the negatives of the games it's better than? Then you might get the views from the negativity whilst still mostly just praising the good game.
@@RennsReviews You could frame the unique systems as positive in comparison to other systems. Either that, or give a negative/ seemingly negative title but clickbait people into watching approval content.
I haven't even watched this yet but I know it will be funny, factual and brutally honest. You really have become my favourite UA-cam channel by a mile. I also recently bought Far Cry 6 on sale because it was cheap and I honestly thought it couldn't be as bad as most said. More fool me, it was worse than I could have ever imagined, I hated every character in it and the story was so trash I skipped every cutscene and bit of dialogue I could. It was a chore to even finish it and I felt relief when I did that never again would I ever have to lay eyes on the game again. Dreadful doesn't even do it justice, I thought 5 was trash but this is just in a whole new league of it's own.
There wasn't a single redeeming feature of that game except Chorizo. 10/10 game of the year. Spend 70$. Slog through the first part of the game. Pet Chorizo. You have now completed your Far Cry 6 experience.
@@AJ-po6up For some reason i still feel like 2013 is a modern year, 2012 feels like way too long ago, but if something was made or released in 2013 i still feel like it's "modern". I guess that's the year i got stuck on.
This game. I've disliked games before, I've been irritated with games before, but when I played Far Cry 6, I finally HATED a game. Hatred. I hate everything about it. No really, everything, what minor conveniences or good ideas there are feel like a spiteful tease that they did not care to put effort in where it counted. I tried everything, literally everything, to make the game fun. Nothing. Not using a tank. Not playing stealth with only my bow and machete. Not going guns blazing with an MG42. Nothing could make this game fun. I got through the entire story and not once did I enjoy it. I actually muted voices after the story was over, because everyone is annoying. The story feels like a parody, almost Velma tier. The devs clearly all self inserted into the protagonists, and made a vague allegory to fascism for the government, whose sin is using slave labor to cure cancer. That's how fucking stupid the story and devs are. It was awful. You don't get a satisfying ending even if you somehow love the story, Gus Fring kills himself and his son in a cutscene. This game evoked hatred from me previously only reserved for other people and the Kia soul. This game is fucking terrible in every way, nothing redeems it. Absolutely nothing. And then after it? Every game started to follow suit in some way. Predatory and blatantly bullshit microtransactions, a cartoonishly colorful color palette, watch the video, it looks more like Fortnite than Far Cry, and even Fortnite can have a darker more interesting or gritty vibe, and I don't like Fortnite. The story and characters feel like a parody of communists written by Alex Jones except they're not ironic, this is meant to be taken seriously and you're meant to like these characters. I could go on and on and on to truly illustrate my hatred but I just don't care to. Just watching this video made me feel apathetic and like I need to smoke some more crack. Speaking of crack, if you read to the end, go play Postal 2 if you can. It's an enjoyable and in my opinion, pretty funny game with a worthwhile open world and 2 good DLCs, though I don't like Apocalypse Weekend that much compared to the base game and Paradise Lost. Modern games suck and I fucking HATE Far Cry 6. With that, I'm off to smoke crack.
I'm exactly the same. I've heavily disliked alot of games before but have been able to see the good in them. I truly hate far cry 6, there isn't anything I even remotely enjoyed about this smoldering trash pile
Damn I never expected Renn with two n’s to go so hard - but I actually appreciate somebody explaining to me why I didn’t enjoy Far Cry 6 anywhere near as much as I felt I should have. I felt bad for not having fun.
@@cashnelson2306 Sometimes it’s more aimed at myself. Like I feel bad because I spent money on something, and I’d wasted it because I wasn’t having fun.
I think there was a treasure hunt where you had to swap between wingsiuting and driving multiple times while you chase a bird. I didn't end up recieveing a weapon for it though, because if you do the Stranger Things quest before this treasure hunt that weapon will glitch out of existence.
No skill tree, no weapon shop, zero POI, clothes give you skills, you have to guess what abilities you have (i accidentally found out that i could takedown chain, knife throw and takedown from above), the "super" is so dumb i always forgot to use it, an headshot ISN'T a oneshot. The only good thing about this game is that i got it on sale for 15$. Ps. I loved far cry 3, 4 and primal.
Headshots are oneshot with armor peircing , but this feature shoots itself in the leg as you can destroy the entire game with good aim and just ap rounds.
Man, you are in my small list of youtubers who deserves to have way more subscribers by this point. I'll keep spreading the word. Thank you for the great content as always.
Playing Ubisoft games is great if you want to slowly transition from MMO grindset to single player sessions. It's like an MMO, but single player, so here is your good old routine of daily quests and reused assets.
I mean this as harshly as possible: Ubisoft open world games have literally nothing to offer you, in terms of story progression, wide content, or even glitches and getting in your way, that GTA: San Andreas doesn’t already offer. Ubisoft is just making San Andreas over and over, and all they add each time are new microtransactions, and a new useless form of the parkour system.
Their problem is they think making world big enough solves the problem which it doesn't. You need to fill that world with MEANINGFUL things and not pointless and time wasting activities and collectibles.
I remember when Elden Ring came out and everyone was making fun of Ubisoft devs that if they were to make Elden Ring, the screen HUD would be a cluster fuck. The devs responded and got so mad 😂. I hope they learn from successful open world games. I’m looking forward for Avatar Frontier Of Pandora, but reading comments from gamers, and they said it looks like FarCry game but with Avatar reskin. It really sucks if that’s true, because I’m a big fan of the movie. Despite Avatar FoP is made by Massive Studios, they are using the SnowDrop Engine, and the one in FarCry games are different. Speaking of SnowDrop, when Massive Studios made Division 1, they showcased the game graphics at E3 which looks amazing, but upon release they had to downgrade it. It’s due the old gen console’s performances, and keeping the game optimized for better gameplay and frame rates. Now here we are in 2023 with PS5 and XboxSeriesX, those consoles can be capable to run Snowdrop engine well if they can get it optimized perfectly, which has me looking forward to see how Avatar FoP would turn out. Now I’m still keeping my expectations low because it’s Ubisoft and I can tell how buggy the game will turn out upon release. I learned that lesson after Ghost Recon BrokenPoint 😅.
Far Cry 6 is basically GTA 5 with a 5-star wanted level constantly. It gets old fast. It's the same old Ubisoft "action follows you like a storm cloud" physics. It's really, how many times can you stop to talk to someone and a f*cking tank or a helicopter just happens to come screeching in and opens fire on you? It's not like some times or even most times. It's EVERY time. It's a cheap, trashy arcade game.
As someone who never played any far cry game, I really enjoyed 6. The ending was awful but the game itself and just causing chaos everywhere I went was really enjoyable.
Year late but every Far Cry game ending is supposed to be bad in someway. The best endings in the games are the ones where you don't play the game literally in Far Cry 4 you sit at a dinner table and you get best ending compared to actually playing the game or in 5 where you just walk away. 3 if it had a secret ending would be never going to the island it takes place on.
I didn't like FC6 at first, but I came back a year later and had a blast. Nothing about the game changed - I just set my own rules and made my own fun. The only things I truly hated were some of the characters - selfish, "unique," and needy.
I hate that to unfog the map you have to be on the ground; flying doesn't count and there are no bell towers unfog it. The flying car clears a very narrow path, you would need to fly it entire day to clean all map.
Btw there's a 4th, hidden supremo that lets you unlock an old-timey rifle. When you use the supremo, you get wallhacks. If you use the supremo with the rifle... well, you get wallhacks with a gun that has infinite punchthrough... And when i say infinite i mean it, anything within your renderdistance will light up and you can shoot it, no matter whats in the way. Tank? Nope. Helicopter? Nope. A building? Nope. An entire fucking mountain? Nah, as long as you can see em, you can shoot em.
I gave this game a chance cuz I loved the map and Giancarlo. I pumped 90hrs into it beating the campaign and doing alot of side content. I realized how much I hated the game when I tried to run it back on Guerilla cuz hard was not difficult at all once you find an exploit. I honestly just want a far cry 2 remake. Just make it for next gen systems and don’t change anything. I doubt Ubisoft can handle that tho
I'm not a massive Far Cry fan, but I do find most of them decently fun. However as soon as I saw Gus (forget the actors name) was gonna be the main villain I knew it would suck. If a company uses a famous actor as promotion, they're compensating.
While Far Cry's combat is undoubtedly bad, a FPS going for at least semi-realism or higher, that doesn't penalize movement while aiming, is always going to be absolutely terrible.
I love this game, and based on how nitpicky every negative review on it is, I need to reconsider other games I haven't played because of negative reviews.
what pisses me off the most is this game is beautiful visually like the rest of the series granted but man this game has the jungle island i loved from 3 and the city that I've wanted in far cry since 4, id ague a large city could work great in a far cry if done with effort and depth almost like dying light 2s buildings and rooftops. having to jump from roof to roof stealthing your way to the outpost down the block, also your commentary is pretty funny loved the vid
They had a perfect chance to dunk on socialism, and yet instead, they blamed, America, Canada, everything but socialism. Let them stew in their own cesspool.
At 34:00 you showed a tank gameplay from Battlefield I to drive your point across that tank sections in games are supposed to be empowering. However, the same cannot be said in FarCry 6 as the tank sections are weak and boring. My issue is not with that my issue is your dialogue during the Battlefield I footage. Battlefield I takes place during The Great War of WWI. The factions of WWI was the Entente, The Allied Powers and the Triple Alliance, The Central Powers. Germany was part of the Central Powers. However, it seems that you referred to WWI Imperial Germans as Nazis. That would be historically incorrect. Nazi stands for National Socialist Germans Workers Party. It wouldn’t be created until 1920. Two years after the end of WWI. The German soldiers were just like the British, just fighting for their homeland and their respective Kings and Empires.🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓
Its really hard to motivate myself to complete this game. Im at 19% completion. Bus missions are boring. Side quests go get that bring it there, of course the biggest possible distance on map between two points. Mapis huge and empty, it does not give suprises by exploring it. Even the big city is bad, majority of streets are baricated. Boring below average game. Graphics mean nothing.
I guess because I bought it for $15 I thoroughly enjoyed the game. I went for a pistol/sniper playthrough and just played it like a stealth game. Very fun that way, and clearing a base with just a pistol really does make you feel like a badass. I recommend playing the game on guerilla mode with 0 HUD. It's very hard, but very satisfying.
Renn do a revist of Just Cause 3 compared to games that come out today it actually feels like a masterpiece the open world the missions the combat the gliding its all so perfect, no idea how they messed it up in JC4
You're horrible at FPS games, just gotta break it to you. Or maybe you're overthinking the game when playing. Try playing it with no sense of immersion and look at the game from a mechanical stand point and you'll realize how brain dead the AI are
@@jackiesimplejake That thinking process is exactly why people can just play games to have fun anymore. Why tf are you getting on a game and "looking at it from a mechanical stand point"? What kind of a fucking loser would I sound like paying money for a new game, booting it up, and saying to myself: "alright lets see what they did wrong with this one". Lmao please just stop playing video games if you actively dislike playing them.
The game was done the second they took the multiplayer and editor out. Fc7 has announced it will have a separate multiplayer mode, which sounds like the division. Once again, there is no editor. R.i.p. far cry you use to be my favorite.
"Shooting 'nazis' in Battefield one"... Not only is this extremely offensive, but it doesn't even sound as if this was meant to be a joke, which would mean that at best this was in poor taste, and at worst belies extreme ignorance.
One thing that stuck out immediately after starting up far cry 3 was definitely the amount of animals. I was running and wishing the first 5 mins I heard a tiger growl and I stopped and looked around. I hadn’t done that once in far cry 6

@brian1291 hurr dur hurr dur I have no idea what narrative cohesion is because I'm wetarded
I beat the story of this game, and the further I got in, the less I was enjoying it, and I realized something reading notes and doing sidequests. The amount of people dying on a regular basis (according to 'canon' events written down and spoken of) is so absurd that almost nobody should be left on the island. Every member of Special Forces has to kill their parents as part of some loyalty test as an example. and despite how cartoonishly evil Castillo and his government is shown to be, I was rooting for him at least a little bit
Once you win, the island would have fallen into chaos. All the groups of people you helped would turn into local warlords and eventually you'd have civil war. I imagine our character would have been killed off once she was no longer useful.
@Sick_Pencil You could argue what'a what's wrong with modern Hollywood too. Not only are the writers inexperienced, they don't even read the right kind of material to learn how things would be.
@@quademasters249 What just doesn't make sense is how Far Cry 4 had an exceptional handle on how this all worked - fantastically done with Pagan Min and the Royal Army of Kyrat and the struggle between progress and tradition, depending on whether you sided with Sabal or Amita. All they had to do was hire the same writers as Far Cry 4. But nope, Ubisoft settled for a bunch of zoomer woke-tards, who filtered the plot through a western-centric lens, filled with "current thing" cultural zeitgeist cringe, rather than observing the actual history of Communism in Cuba and Socialist despots across other South American countries and how it was nationalistic guerilla forces like the Contras that attempted to overthrow the dictatorships.

Y'know, for an island nation that's supposedly been "frozen in time" since the 1960s due to a naval blockade and an embargo, a questionably high number of Yara's denizens seem to have relatively easy access to modern technology such as smartphones and the internet.
Actually kinda true to life if Yara is a clone of Cuba. Cubans have some surprising strategies like downloading all the latest shows on the mainland to a USB and smuggling that into Cuba to be copied and distributed. And if prisoners can get a hold of a smartphone then it's not impossible for Yarans/Cubans to have them too.
@@hiloskymaybe if the game actually bothered to take inspiration from those strategies and show yaran smugglers circumventing that embargo, or explain why the subjects of an isolated dictatorship have high speed fiber optic internet, it'd be interesting. but they do neither so it's all just lazy handwaving

I remember watching the trailer and Diego was a huge part of it. I thought the game would let us play as him and choose to either support his father, play as the bad guys basically.

This was my first far cry game and I absolutely loved this game even to this day but as I started playing the older far cry games I realized how much things were reused from older far cry games and that this game is just a result of inbreeding from older far cry games and the same formula.
If you go through the far cry games chronologically you see even more cracks. They get some stuff right in every game they make, then they don’t implement that mechanic in the next title. Or they improve what everyone’s favorite part of the previous title was, by breaking it and saying ‘YOU’RE WELCOME!!!!’ on repeat like you owe them money.

I recently watched a video on the ai mechanics of the doom demons and It was incredibly nuanced for the time. And then we have far cry 6 where you can shoot a guy in the throat and nothing happens.
I didn’t like the supremo’s, just felt like a cop out, without using them the combat got more tense but I would’ve appreciated home made equipment then a backpack. A mortar you can set up and pre target and launch remotely. Or upgrades to the auto turret. I think they should’ve emphasized the home made element. Showing us make land mines, claymore, molotovs. I would like a bouncing Betty that blast napalm
They should've actually make you feel overwhelmed in the combat, and maybe make the helicopters pop flares to counter the supremo, maybe only letting one rocket get through.

Bear in mind that the Farcry 3 formula is used in more than just farcry. You may think with Farcry that it was just seven games with the same open world formula but you have to toss in Watch Dogs and any number of their open world Tom Clancey games as well as later Assassins Creed Games and any other open world game from Ubisoft that I may be forgetting. So really it's more like 20-30 games with the same kind of formula and people noticed that long before Farcry 6.

Ubisoft is the perfect representation of the current issues in gaming. AAA Games are products made to please investors and gready higher-ups in the company.
All passion is removed. The passion from the developers is wasted as the features they do get to create are ruined by short deadlines, crunch and being mismanaged. All for a game players don't even enjoy. But we buy the games anyway.

In Far Cry 3, it was streamlined to be more of a stealth shooter. Far Cry 4 had more of the same with an open idea of how to approach. Sure, in both of those, you *could* go loud, but that creates tension and challenge you likely cannot overcome early to mid-game.
Far Cry 5 was a little more lenient on its adaptability. But it had it's moments.

I honestly really don't care much for stories in games but I thought Far Cry 6's story (I skipped everything between Blood dragon and 6, so no idea if the others are the same) so offensivly bad it seriously bothered me. Like the tone of this game only knows two extremes - either its really messed up hard stuff or the goofiest out of whack shit imagineable. If they just allowed you to kill everyone at the end and nuke the island and its degenerates that would have been a worthy ending after being subjected to these "people" for the entire story.
I have never liked a Far Cry story, ever, 3's was outlandish and oddly paced, 4's was boring and 2D, 5 had some good moments but strange implementation and 6 was painfully drawn out and incredibly dull with forgettable characters, thing is the most captivating part of Far Cry, the gameplay, was also shallow and empty feeling to the point that the main reason anyone plays these games seems to have evaporated.
besides Dani the only character I liked was Jonron as she felt the most like a genuine human being in their early 20s while also coping withing a dictatorship but even then, she left very little impact.
Until i saw what was going down in Redfall, this game actually was the record holder for the worst AI experience I've had in a game. Gunfights were way too easy because they could never find me. Enemies just took way too long to react and i was playing on the hardest difficulty they offered.
idk man whats-her-face from the first province the game nudges you towards running around in circles in the middle of that rescue mission & the pelican you need to follow to unlock the AR-15 flying into a wall are pretty horrendous, Redfalls enemies seem a marginally better compared to what I experienced on my one and only play through of FC6
@@unfortunately_fortunate2000 the reason I put redfall a notch below FC6 is at least FC6 has AI pathing. Not good AI pathing that's certain but it is there. I haven't played Redfall but from what I've seen, they can't figure their way around basic obstacles like boxes. I must've played like 10 or so hours of FC6 and the only thing I remember is trying to find enemies that would give me a challenging gunfight. The video didn't mention this but the whole "hiding your gun mechanic" was so dumb. Like 1) The AI is so asleep that they barely react when you're visibly armed anyway and 2) Here I am in a menacing black and red hoodie with anarchist designs and a literal missile backpack but once I tuck my fucking M16 in pants (I guess?) they're supposed to be like "nothing to see here." 3) AND HERE I AM WITH SAID MENACING CLOTHES, A MACHETE, A MISSILE BACKPACK, AND AN M16 AND THEY STILL CHOOSE TO PRIORITIZE PICKING FIGHTS WITH RANDOM YARANS OVER ME.

This game. I've disliked games before, I've been irritated with games before, but when I played Far Cry 6, I finally HATED a game. Hatred. I hate everything about it. No really, everything, what minor conveniences or good ideas there are feel like a spiteful tease that they did not care to put effort in where it counted. I tried everything, literally everything, to make the game fun. Nothing. Not using a tank. Not playing stealth with only my bow and machete. Not going guns blazing with an MG42. Nothing could make this game fun. I got through the entire story and not once did I enjoy it. I actually muted voices after the story was over, because everyone is annoying. The story feels like a parody, almost Velma tier. The devs clearly all self inserted into the protagonists, and made a vague allegory to fascism for the government, whose sin is using slave labor to cure cancer. That's how fucking stupid the story and devs are. It was awful. You don't get a satisfying ending even if you somehow love the story, Gus Fring kills himself and his son in a cutscene. This game evoked hatred from me previously only reserved for other people and the Kia soul. This game is fucking terrible in every way, nothing redeems it. Absolutely nothing. And then after it? Every game started to follow suit in some way. Predatory and blatantly bullshit microtransactions, a cartoonishly colorful color palette, watch the video, it looks more like Fortnite than Far Cry, and even Fortnite can have a darker more interesting or gritty vibe, and I don't like Fortnite. The story and characters feel like a parody of communists written by Alex Jones except they're not ironic, this is meant to be taken seriously and you're meant to like these characters. I could go on and on and on to truly illustrate my hatred but I just don't care to. Just watching this video made me feel apathetic and like I need to smoke some more crack. Speaking of crack, if you read to the end, go play Postal 2 if you can. It's an enjoyable and in my opinion, pretty funny game with a worthwhile open world and 2 good DLCs, though I don't like Apocalypse Weekend that much compared to the base game and Paradise Lost. Modern games suck and I fucking HATE Far Cry 6. With that, I'm off to smoke crack.
TLDR?

I think there was a treasure hunt where you had to swap between wingsiuting and driving multiple times while you chase a bird. I didn't end up recieveing a weapon for it though, because if you do the Stranger Things quest before this treasure hunt that weapon will glitch out of existence.
No skill tree, no weapon shop, zero POI, clothes give you skills, you have to guess what abilities you have (i accidentally found out that i could takedown chain, knife throw and takedown from above), the "super" is so dumb i always forgot to use it, an headshot ISN'T a oneshot. The only good thing about this game is that i got it on sale for 15$.
Ps. I loved far cry 3, 4 and primal.
Headshots are oneshot with armor peircing , but this feature shoots itself in the leg as you can destroy the entire game with good aim and just ap rounds.

Man, you are in my small list of youtubers who deserves to have way more subscribers by this point. I'll keep spreading the word. Thank you for the great content as always.
Playing Ubisoft games is great if you want to slowly transition from MMO grindset to single player sessions. It's like an MMO, but single player, so here is your good old routine of daily quests and reused assets.
I mean this as harshly as possible: Ubisoft open world games have literally nothing to offer you, in terms of story progression, wide content, or even glitches and getting in your way, that GTA: San Andreas doesn’t already offer. Ubisoft is just making San Andreas over and over, and all they add each time are new microtransactions, and a new useless form of the parkour system.
Their problem is they think making world big enough solves the problem which it doesn't. You need to fill that world with MEANINGFUL things and not pointless and time wasting activities and collectibles.
I remember when Elden Ring came out and everyone was making fun of Ubisoft devs that if they were to make Elden Ring, the screen HUD would be a cluster fuck. The devs responded and got so mad 😂. I hope they learn from successful open world games. I’m looking forward for Avatar Frontier Of Pandora, but reading comments from gamers, and they said it looks like FarCry game but with Avatar reskin. It really sucks if that’s true, because I’m a big fan of the movie. Despite Avatar FoP is made by Massive Studios, they are using the SnowDrop Engine, and the one in FarCry games are different. Speaking of SnowDrop, when Massive Studios made Division 1, they showcased the game graphics at E3 which looks amazing, but upon release they had to downgrade it. It’s due the old gen console’s performances, and keeping the game optimized for better gameplay and frame rates. Now here we are in 2023 with PS5 and XboxSeriesX, those consoles can be capable to run Snowdrop engine well if they can get it optimized perfectly, which has me looking forward to see how Avatar FoP would turn out. Now I’m still keeping my expectations low because it’s Ubisoft and I can tell how buggy the game will turn out upon release. I learned that lesson after Ghost Recon BrokenPoint 😅.

Far Cry 6 is basically GTA 5 with a 5-star wanted level constantly. It gets old fast. It's the same old Ubisoft "action follows you like a storm cloud" physics. It's really, how many times can you stop to talk to someone and a f*cking tank or a helicopter just happens to come screeching in and opens fire on you? It's not like some times or even most times. It's EVERY time. It's a cheap, trashy arcade game.
As someone who never played any far cry game, I really enjoyed 6. The ending was awful but the game itself and just causing chaos everywhere I went was really enjoyable.
I've been playing since the original far cry, played every release since, I enjoyed far.cry 6, it's very mediocre, but it has it's moments

@cashnelson2306 LMAO
Year late but every Far Cry game ending is supposed to be bad in someway. The best endings in the games are the ones where you don't play the game literally in Far Cry 4 you sit at a dinner table and you get best ending compared to actually playing the game or in 5 where you just walk away. 3 if it had a secret ending would be never going to the island it takes place on.

@@Iammoneyman420 is the game really that bad? what made you just abandon the game?
The problem with that, is that YOU had to make the game fun yourself by setting rules. No one should have to do that for them to enjoy the game.
Why would you complain about the mechanics of the formulaic Far Cry, due to its over-the-top bombasticness, but call Far Cry 2 bad for its realism...?
I hate that to unfog the map you have to be on the ground; flying doesn't count and there are no bell towers unfog it. The flying car clears a very narrow path, you would need to fly it entire day to clean all map.
Btw there's a 4th, hidden supremo that lets you unlock an old-timey rifle. When you use the supremo, you get wallhacks. If you use the supremo with the rifle... well, you get wallhacks with a gun that has infinite punchthrough... And when i say infinite i mean it, anything within your renderdistance will light up and you can shoot it, no matter whats in the way. Tank? Nope. Helicopter? Nope. A building? Nope. An entire fucking mountain? Nah, as long as you can see em, you can shoot em.

34:00 Nazis in WWI? Silly Yank.
I'm currently playing FarCry 6 and I am absolutely loving it.
You may want to seek out psychiatric help.
34:02 I love the video and the Production quality, but the German soldiers in ww1 where not Näźis, the Nãżi party did not exist till the mid 1930s
"Or like Battlefield 1, where you shoot nazis with a tank"... ugh, really man?
what pisses me off the most is this game is beautiful visually like the rest of the series granted but man this game has the jungle island i loved from 3 and the city that I've wanted in far cry since 4, id ague a large city could work great in a far cry if done with effort and depth almost like dying light 2s buildings and rooftops. having to jump from roof to roof stealthing your way to the outpost down the block, also your commentary is pretty funny loved the vid
The Intel problem is the same reason why I hate fishing and mining in Warframe. The game just... won't... stop... spawning... enemies!
why the fuck is there fishing and mining in warframe?
@@solitudesf8111they added those in the open world zones and now you need some fish and ores to craft some warframes and weapons among other things
If you guys think this game is GARBAGE, you've had pretty good luck avoiding shitty pieces of media. Just saying.
Yeah, it gets way worse than a mediocre at best Ubisoft pile of slop out there. The industry is fucked up.
They had a perfect chance to dunk on socialism, and yet instead, they blamed, America, Canada, everything but socialism. Let them stew in their own cesspool.
At 34:00 you showed a tank gameplay from Battlefield I to drive your point across that tank sections in games are supposed to be empowering. However, the same cannot be said in FarCry 6 as the tank sections are weak and boring. My issue is not with that my issue is your dialogue during the Battlefield I footage. Battlefield I takes place during The Great War of WWI. The factions of WWI was the Entente, The Allied Powers and the Triple Alliance, The Central Powers. Germany was part of the Central Powers. However, it seems that you referred to WWI Imperial Germans as Nazis. That would be historically incorrect. Nazi stands for National Socialist Germans Workers Party. It wouldn’t be created until 1920. Two years after the end of WWI. The German soldiers were just like the British, just fighting for their homeland and their respective Kings and Empires.🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓

As someone who played it, I suspect I will agree on pretty much, if not everything.
Far Cry 6 is pure dumpster fire.
34:00
Battlefield 1 - a World War I game
"nazis"
Come the fuck on.
Its really hard to motivate myself to complete this game. Im at 19% completion. Bus missions are boring. Side quests go get that bring it there, of course the biggest possible distance on map between two points. Mapis huge and empty, it does not give suprises by exploring it. Even the big city is bad, majority of streets are baricated. Boring below average game. Graphics mean nothing.
Now you got me angry as shit. Battlefield 1 is taking place in WW2 so no, you are not shooting nazis.
I guess because I bought it for $15 I thoroughly enjoyed the game. I went for a pistol/sniper playthrough and just played it like a stealth game. Very fun that way, and clearing a base with just a pistol really does make you feel like a badass. I recommend playing the game on guerilla mode with 0 HUD. It's very hard, but very satisfying.
That does sound pretty fun. Glad you enjoyed it.
You spent 15 too much.
I got it for free and hated it lol
Got it for free didn't like it much at first until I went deeper in the game and imo its actually pretty fun just the story/plot is a bit off
Lucky I bought it for $70 when it came out and it’s boring
Idk i never had any of these issues. Personally i thought the game was ok. Again this is my OPINION dont get mad at me
34:00 Nazis did not exist in the first world war...
42:49 these are awesome, opinion invalid
at last someone that likes to see gameplay related details in their game i can stop scrolling
Just finished the game on xbox x
and its wasnt half as bad as people say and mind you, I rarely like games...
This video was SO good I subscribed! And you didn't even mention all the woke garbage they threw in, HA Ha ha.
Renn do a revist of Just Cause 3 compared to games that come out today it actually feels like a masterpiece the open world the missions the combat the gliding its all so perfect, no idea how they messed it up in JC4
That's not a bad idea for a video topic honestly
Ive played this game recently and this is nothing like what I experienced. The ai were completely alert and aa guns absolutely shredded my chopper.
You're horrible at FPS games, just gotta break it to you. Or maybe you're overthinking the game when playing. Try playing it with no sense of immersion and look at the game from a mechanical stand point and you'll realize how brain dead the AI are
@@jackiesimplejake That thinking process is exactly why people can just play games to have fun anymore. Why tf are you getting on a game and "looking at it from a mechanical stand point"? What kind of a fucking loser would I sound like paying money for a new game, booting it up, and saying to myself: "alright lets see what they did wrong with this one". Lmao please just stop playing video games if you actively dislike playing them.
There is nothing you can say or do that will make me not like this game
The game was done the second they took the multiplayer and editor out. Fc7 has announced it will have a separate multiplayer mode, which sounds like the division. Once again, there is no editor. R.i.p. far cry you use to be my favorite.
"Shooting 'nazis' in Battefield one"... Not only is this extremely offensive, but it doesn't even sound as if this was meant to be a joke, which would mean that at best this was in poor taste, and at worst belies extreme ignorance.
The game was very lack luster. But I really liked how the map was divided between towns and main roads and the Guerilla paths and jungle.
One thing that stuck out immediately after starting up far cry 3 was definitely the amount of animals. I was running and wishing the first 5 mins I heard a tiger growl and I stopped and looked around. I hadn’t done that once in far cry 6
Then you aint looking hard enough
@@badmaw7073 yeah that’s the thing genius, I didn’t have to look hard in 3, I was running from tigers and bears immediately. What is there in 6? A crocodile and a barracuda when you swim? The most aggressive animal is the enemy dog
Battlefield 1. Shooting Nazis...... please let it be a joke.
Man all Germans are nazis
in a comedy youtube video? Surely not
Yes, it's a joke. Chill.
34:00 i know you are uneducated but i still think it is harmful to classify Germany and Germans During the first world war as 'Nazis' Despite Nazism (the Nazi Party) being formed in 1920, after the first world war.
Who cares
@@justagamethrower if he said something like all black people are slaves people would care
@@justagamethrower People who don't know history are doomed to repeat it
Dude just cause you don't like it does not mean that there are others out there who won't like or love it as much as I do. I think these gaming companies should use people like you. I've listened to videos claiming games suck and didn't buy it only to buy and play it later and actually really like the game. If anything sucks it's you and your videos
Its a trash game.
Its completely identical to the previous 3 farcry.
The story and characters suck.
