Everyone should stop going to ign and gamespot, when you have guys like this that tell the truth. Another good review!
twistedlogic182 Appreciate it Twisted
AngryCentaurGaming I appreciate your witty, informative reviews. Thanks again!
I love how you take the games "fun factor" into account instead of just judging the more negligible elements like less then fantastic tex quality. I play games for fun, not to gawk at how real virtual rocks look. I know that quality graphics help with immersion but it doesn't take much for me at least to get completely sucked into a game if it's enjoyable to play.
Ben Dover Thanks Ben. I do think Funfactor is a big deal
Couldn't agree with you more mate. I can't stand reading over the comments in some videos, people complaining that the rocks in the distance don't have a 1080p shadow or something ridiculous like that.
Amen.
AngryCentaurGaming please do not turn into IGN reviewers when you reach your goal of subs
Great graphics and gameplay are a add on to a brilliant game, like gta V was really good and detailed and a lot of fun
Best freaking game review channel on yt!
***** Thanks!
For real.
You represent core gamers. Just keep it up.
This has become my main channel for reviews.
DONT get commercial.AngryCentaurGaming
The Birds.. I hate the damn birds.
KINDLE “EAGLE!!!! EAGLE!!” I had no idea that eagles attacked humans CONSTANTLY
I've been getting really deep into this game lately and I must say, i'm in love with the graphics and the sound. Walking around and exploring new locations, inspecting nature and listening to nature is genuinely relaxing
Have u played fc4?
Dude I can't tell u how many times I've hit a tree in this game using the wing suit lol
rick jin Gee Aye Enn lol me too
Well... good to see ubisoft still has a rope to climb out of the hole they've dug themselves... for now.
Now let's wait for The Division...
There are things called patches that can make certain holes disappear like framerate, glitches, and overall performance.
Myles Newman Games shouldn't be released in a broken state to begin with. The Industries apparent new ethos of "f#ck it - we'll patch it after release" is horrible and needs to stop.
At least this games seems pretty stable on the whole.
Ever consider that they did not have enough time? Would you rather a game be delayed half way to hell, eventually get overhyped by the target community and end up like Watch Dogs to iron out bugs and such (a lot of which were fixed and can still be fixed by patches)? Aside from the game not needing to be patched, a patch can show that developers are still putting time in the game, and still working on it. Not the whole "it's out there now lets forget about it" deal like some games.
Myles Newman You have a point, but at the sime time, would you like to buy a brand new car and have to get it fixed every month? No. they charge us $60 and spend millions to make the game, only to extenuate. Is that not what testing is for? If the problem is so simple it can be patched, why didn't they patch it in before release?
Darth Vader only had 12 minutes of screen time in A New Hope, lol.
Oh Karak, you've come so far in such a short time! Looking back on these older reviews. Thank You for being consistent!
Perfect timing my friend!!! You are quickly turning into one of the best reviewers I've ever watched. And I've seen a lot......
akou12 Thanks!
Best review i've seen !!!
bakerXderek Thanks
Cheeaahh!
Cheeeeaaaaaa
Holy Crap...this is SUCH a good review!
TheXBRGUY Thanks I am stoked you liked the review man.
Yes it is, fuck ign and gamespot
I'm Indian and Hindi is my mother tongue.@9:00 mark, the text written below 'MAP EDITOR' means 'One Minute' in Hindi. I cant wait to play this game...very excited to see the how the culture of the setting feels in the game :-). Great Review guys!
Cheers
The funny thing is, Pagan min is actually a good guy compared to the fggt leaders of the golden path, youll know if you watch the ending
True lmao. I honestly don't know why we helped the golden path...
I always thought it would have been cool if you had to kill one of the Golden Path leaders....and then found out you were tricked into your decision by Pagan, and killed the wrong one....learning that the other was working for Pagan all along.
What you're telling us what we actually want to know? Finally someone who actually REVIEWS games properly. Fuck IGN there reviews are so bad the reasons are endless.
***** Thanks so much man> Spread the word
I found what you said about the main protagonist being quiet pretty interesting. I think having the absence of voice sort of allows the player more to fill in more gaps about the main character. Since he doesn't say much we give him personality from ourselves a bit more creating something more immersive.
This review is very informative and seems fair! I usually dont like long reviews, but you kept my attention. I also appreciate your non-numeric rating scale. Great job!
Eric Herrmann Thanks Eric
You deserve a bigger fan base this is awesome in depth but not boring honestly the best reviewer on UA-cam and your not desperate.
Most disappointing thing about this game is that there is no weather system. No rain, thunder and lightning. It really takes away from the experience, not knowing when the rain is coming. The sound and experience of it all. I thought FC4 was going to have the most polished weather system of the previous games. Oh well as I keep saying with each game maybe the next one. Ubisoft must not know how to create weather in games, because The Crew does not have any either. FC2 and 3 had rain, thunder, and lightning even though it was not that good, at least it had something...
+Railfan88 ?? "No rain, thunder and lightning. It really takes away from the experience, not knowing when the rain is coming." I'm confused. So does it have a weather system or not? First you said "no rain" then said it takes away not knowing when rain is coming.
+djhart25 It has no weather system at all!
+Railfan88 there you have a really good point.. know i was missing something huge here
Yes theres is
+djhart25 yes it have a sistem in place
Also you can get a chopper pretty early in the game which allows you to travel very fast. This thing is also usefull during fortress attacks where one is rising hell on the ground and the other let it rain grenades from the air.
I think the Ajays character should be deeper with feelings, you can tell that Jason from far cry 3 was scared but this comes to ajay naturally for some reason
Darth Vader walked down a hallway for less than two minutes but that was actually the best part of that particular Star Wars movie.
Earned a sub. You and angry joe have to be my top two reviewers. I'll watch you for a deep, thoughtful, in depth review and angry joe for a comedic review.
Roberto Rivera Thanks Roberto I appreciate that!
Yes yes yes!! This is the type of fucking reviews that I've been searching for in UA-cam for the longest. Based on buy or rent and gets the point across in around fairly quickly without having to watch a 40 minute video. Loving the reviews. Keep up the great work. Happy subscriber here.
Esat Cavdar Appreciate it
Angry centaur gaming and angry joe are the best reviewer
I find it annoying sometimes because the NPCs always send you all alone invading/infiltrating a highly guarded place. I can't feel the importance of the mission because they weren't there to help you. They just send you like it's a suicide mission. And everything feels like your responsibility, you do this, you do that, and it doesn't look like the NPCs did any work at all! They're just voices in the game. And that's what bothers me in the game.
I bought the game for 10 pounds looks like a bargain to me.
Man so proud of how your going since I first subbed at like way less than 1k subs, 22K already man; I have a feeling you can get to 50k by the end of the year easy on how your going atm man! Great review also btw. Hope you still remember me still :P lol
CoopBosses I actually remember your username because I thought you were a gaming organization dedicated to fighting bosses in coop/
Co-op Bosses now it 422k 🙂🙂
Over half a million now!!!
4 years later and is an more then 500K lol.
Nice review, BTW why the fuck do they always limit the interactions with the coolest bad guys, In Far Cry 3, Vaas wasnt in the game enough and in this game, it seems to be the same with Pagan Min, come the fuck on Ubisoft, let us enjoy the bad guys you've created
Matt Josh I am not sure. I think sometimes companies don't know how to handle that interaction
AngryCentaurGaming Have you played the PC version ? So far it has been shit. Playing at custom settings (Most settings at ultra and some settings at high) and it looks not even remotely different from Far Cry 3. Hell, there is no option to adjust FOV. Oh and it has terrible mouse support so I used a controller (Strangely, it felt perfect...guess it was optimized for that, unlike Far Cry 3.) But guess what, when you play using the controller, the game's map breaks with lot of areas not loaded and NPCs freeze. I was running around while Pagan's security guards just stood there doing nothing. Ubisoft has done it again!!
***** Well, console master race keeps screwing you PC peasants over, it seems.
Joshua Wilson Haha good one. Anyway, I have a PS4. I love both consoles and PC. But lately, PC has been pretty shitty cuz of the badly optimized ports.
***** Haha yeah I know I play on consoles and PC's as well. I was just joking because it seems that the consoles are ruining all the ports lol
hahaha watching this in 2017, the part where you talk about how little pagan min appears, 'imagine darth vader showing up to the star wars movies for 10 mins just to walk up and down a hallway cause it'd be cool'. YEP, WE ALL THOUGHT THAT'D NEVER HAPPEN, ROGUE ONE!
Dude I've been watching your reviews since the alien isolation review and not only are they comedic but they are very informative and well done
Valiant86 Thanks man glad you liked it
Just watched 2 of your reviews. I am so glad to see someone finally reviewing games how I wanted them to, on individual merits and not just "9/10' scores, but a recommendation. These are great, you have earned a new subscriber :) P.S. Thanks for keeping them around 10 minutes and to the point, the last thing we need is more 20 - 30 minute reviews on games. Especially for people who have other things to do and need a quick rundown on what the game is and whether it is for us or not. Thank you.
Oscar Jackson Thanks man. Glad you liked them.
Hmm, the skill system is kind of bullshit and arbitrary(have to get a skill to actually reload while running???), and the :whole lot of stuff to do" is pretty spurious as well. You take one thing and copy paste it like 50 different times with no real change ups. Your first 5 hours marks how you'll be playing for the rest of the game, and it also is pretty much what you'll be seeing in terms of locations and enemies as well. The weapon selection is nice, until you realise how broken a certain 2 weapons are and once you have them, you just need a sniper and another gun of your choice and you'll be rolling over everything.
+SaintAlia_of_the_Games I know a lot of folks who felt that way
Headphones in the PS4 controller is the shit.
This is a pretty on-point review, considering how quickly you churn these reviews out. Thank you for continuing to make quality content!
August Keller Thanks August
No problem! I used to be a reviews editor myself and I am super impressed with the quality of your work, and the tone of your reviews. Out of curiosity, do you have someone helping you edit the videos, or do you do all that yourself?
August Keller I am a one man show actually. Cadiz does some walkthroughs and he edits those.(Unity and Evil Within) while I do the reviews, podcasts, previews, and other walkthroughs like Dragon Age.
That is pretty incredible. Well you earned a subscribe from me and I am excited to see all your future content. Thanks for the quick response as well.
That vertical gameplay looks enticing. Fantastic reviews as usual.
BillyRunsShow Glad you liked it man
Great review man, really objective :) I usually watch Angry Joe for this kind of stuff but I'm gonna stick with you too from now on... Only one thing... Do not diss Vaas man :P
SylarSilent Thanks man! Spread the word if you can and happy to have ya
It really bums me how Ubisoft has been doing this a bit more frequently with their prime villains. The script is great, they hire some top notch actors, it's almost a crime knowing that their screen time is short lived. :(
I will say though knowing this game introduces some lesser seen guns is a VERY satisfying thing in my book. That Webely has to be my all time favorite revolver mainly thanks to Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade.
Despite my criticisms you know what, you're on the right track. We, reviews AND gamers a like tend to forget there is a fun factor which is seemingly lost as of today when we analyze games.
Thanks for pointing it out more and more in your reviews as of late. Even with the massive controversies regarding Ubisoft's "anti-consumer" methods as of late, that doesn't necessarily mean their games aren't fun in the end.
I sympathize for disgruntled gamers but sometimes people view things too objectively. So, again, thank you for bringing the ideologies of why we game back into your reviews, especially this one.
Atomic Rebellion Agreed
Great review! The channel has come a long way in the last few months!
trman Thanks Trman!
your reviews are absolutely brilliant, I am actually able to make an informed decision after this. entertaining value also very high, keep up the good work!
Christian Köhn Christian thanks man
AngryCentaurGaming my pleasure
Fighting malaria, bullet sponges know as enemies, vehicles that broke down after three shots, self populating checkpoints that spawned every 10 seconds, and AI that could see in every light spectrum, was tons of fun!
So much better than FC5 imo
I just bought this for under 10 bucks on xbox live. Black Friday deal. I didn't even know it was on the 360. Awesome!
Like many have said here; your reviewing format is fantastic! I'll be coming back here for my reviews from now on. Subscribed!
3DAntonio47 Thanks man. If you get a chance check out some of our reviews for past games as well. Thanks for subbing man.
ur channel is growing mate... everytime i hit any xxx game reviews , i see you on the top with IGN/Gamespot , and i like yours the most ! Keep it up man :D
Tee Sin Thanks man
This guy and Angry Joe do straight up non biased reviews. They really know how to capture the audience when it comes to wanting to know about the game rather than a "forced" felt review by IGN/Gamespot. Will be ordering this on PC. Anyone know if the PC game releases midnight GMT? When do Ubisoft usually unlock on Uplay (during release) Steam is always slow.
You and AngryJoe are the best reviewers on UA-cam. Thank you for being awesome :P
Your reviews always help me decide, easily the best reviewer, and you actually talk about relevant aspects of games.
Shane Schröder Thahnks Shane appreciate that
"Darth Vader shows up just to walk down a hallway" - ACG predicted The Force Awakens
Great Review. I'm kind of a sucker for this series. The gun issues won't bother me as I played FC3 98% with the bow. How frequent are the flying machines? (i.e. Can you reliably find one fairly quick if you want?)
justonemoreblock I would say average.
wow. i was blown buy how u review games despite of your obvious lack of equipment and budget than those big guys from ign and gamestop. i like how u describe how the game feels rather than rating it by some technical score board. u deserve a sub men
thanks!
Love the reviews and got to say I don't know how u come up with all the funny ass one liners but I LOVE THEM
xchubbz27x Thanks
Great job man! Your my new source for true gaming reviews.
Religious Gamers The source for crazy reviews everywhere:)
*****
Jesus probably wasn't real either.
Just finishing up FC3 for the 360, long but very enjoyable except when my wife just so happened to be watching me defeat the crazy tribal Demon smoke god and then get rode bareback by Citra,,,,,,I had no idea that was going to happen!! Figured I would see if FC4 would be worth getting into, good review.
Nice review it the first review that I saw I definitely subscribed since your review didn't feel biased at all and it was well written and thought out
King Tanvir thanks
Karak, once again you deliver us with another witty and entertaining, yet really informative review! Keep it up man, I knew that once I watched your Dead Rising 3 review for Xbone last year that you were a great reviewer. I love how honest and down to earth of a reviewer you are, don't stop any time soon! I'll definitely be picking this one up next month man.
WeightyPikachu Thanks WP. I appreciate it
AngryCentaurGaming No, thank you man!
After dumping so many hours in to Far Cry 3, and playing other open world ubisoft games, i found this game excruciatingly formulaic to the point where the sense of exploration or change was non existent and it completely destroyed the vibe and fun factor for me. The tedium and repetitiveness was just too much. I found the environment and setting to be uninteresting as well. So far, from what I have seen, Far Cry 5 seems to have broke this trend. Cannot wait for your review. Either way, excellent review.
cheers
Good review, you've earned a new subscriber.
MrSamuel539 Awesome enjoy the stay Mr:)
You, Sir, have earned a new subscriber! Great video.
I saw you responded to a lot of comments so I wanted to ask you something: I'm looking for a game with a long playtime and an open world. I'm having massive trouble deciding between Infamous - Second Son, Far Cry 4 and Dying Light. Does any of those three stand out as the better one to you?
Thanks in advance, I'm off to watch more of your videos!
More reviews than Angry Joe, and more in depth without being bloated. This guy's channel is awesome
Nathan Kober Thanks Nathan glad you liked it!
I rarely take the time to comment on anything but I just have to say your reviews are amazing. Your choice of vocabulary is splendid but never incomprehensible. Your rating system is simplified and answers the real question that concerns viewers. On top of that, you manage to genuinely make me laugh at your metaphors and comedic relief which is something IGN and gamespot could never hope to accomplish. You got a natural talent for this my friend. As long as you review new games I hereby wash my hands of those shameful review channels and pledge subscriber loyalty to you.
Also I swear if they handled Pagan Min the way they 'handled' Vaas i'm going to be so pissed off.
This is the second review I've seen of yours, & you've nailed it again..
Quality work..
Andrew Kimberley THanks Andrew
Always very balanced reviews, informative,helpful and entertaining. Cheers dude.
theexiles100 Thanks man
Logged in to drop a comment.
Great review man, the pacing and the points you brought up all made sense and it was quite entertaining to watch. Here's hoping one of the bigger companies snatches you up and hires you.
Nephalen I appreciate tht Nephalen
Thanks for the review, you make really good ones! It's also nice to know that this year won't be a complete flop for games, as so many are either bad or just unplayable lately.
I can't wait till this channel blows up, and everybody comes here for the best game reviews!
Thanks for reviewing the 360 version. Really helped me make the decision. Last gen versions are mostly ignored by the major review publications despite the fact that old consoles are still relevant to a lot of people. We really appreciate it.
Bjørn Eirik Torset You bet. They are relevent to far more people than the new versions. Its just a lot of peeps like to think that everyone has the newest hardware.
4:50 - literally describes Darth Vader’s exact role in Rogue One 😂
Mr Centaur. Can I make a suggestion? I like the way you clearly segment the review and address different areas but one area that most reviews, including yourself, don't seem to cover is difficulty. I've been playing games for 20 years. One of my biggest gripes with a lot of newer games is they are too easy. I had to refrain from choosing the extra health perks in Far Cry 3 and even then, it wasn't that difficult. I've seen some younger dudes playing games and they're happy to just run in, die, run in, die, run in, die. Over and over until they succeed. But if you're actually trying you best to not die, taking your time etc, Far Cry 3 was a bit too easy to be honest. How about this game?
Intro music that isnt crap dubstep. Nearly unheard of!
you are definitely one of the best reviewers on UA-cam....quality detailed, can we get your impressions on nioh alpha demo I just beat the first boss.....the game has great potential,they did what lords of the Fallen failed to do
+vannypan26 thanks appreciate it more than you know
Nice review you should be at 100k assuming you keep reviewing upcoming games by the 26th of September 2015.
***** Thanks Luke
Thank god a decent reviewer. Please don't stop, ign and gamespot reviews are just getting painful. Answered all my questions.
DracutDline Glad you liked it Dracut
You just helped them sell a copy :)
I love your reviews! they are the best! and I see a lot of these reviews to confirm before I buy a game! but with you once I see the review im sure to buy the game without confirming with other reviews as well! keep it up! you have an awesome channel
JAVA rodeo Thanks JAVA!
Wow man this was an amazing review! You just earned a subscriber :D
xkilen Thanks
just got around to this on the pc im liking it so far it looks amazing aswell even being a couple years old.
2 questions:
1)In the UK , the game costs £50 which is about $75/$80. Is that still worth a buy or shall i wait for a bit?
2) If the game is set in the himalayas, is Mount Everest there and if so, can you climb it?
Also, another great review that came out really quickly. Keep up the damn good work
Great review as always! You've become one of my favorite game review channels and even if I'm not interested in the game you're reviewing I watch your video anyway.Keep it up dude!
Miguel Challoner Thanks Miguel! I appreciate it man.
you and angry joe have the best reviews that are actually honest. You got a new subscriber
The AC THanks AC
Its hard to believe than we tought than those graphics where good now that you look at games like primal or battlefront
+Silverknive Well...I sort of think Farcry 4 still looks good. Just not AS good.
+ACG Ha ok I didn't see that those are xbox 360 gameplay
Fsr cry 4 looks way better than primal, the waterfalls look tacky, primal was just there to fill the assassins creed gap, it was cheap
I still think TES:Oblivion looks amazing :D Started to play it again :)
Some game's graphics are detailed but unimpressive, and some were limited by available technology, and yet more memorable memorable due to smart art design.
I'll take graphucs similar to splinter cell, theif 2, deus ex, or even the simplistic style of Daggerfall over the sensory overload found in so many newer games.
Just one thing I would like to add: The thing I loved most about FC3 was the protagonist Jason Brody. As you slowly progressed through the game you transformed from a little wuss to a badass killing machine as the island slowly drove you insane. You had to survive, and watching Jason turn into a phsychopathic murderer as all the locals kept forcing him was a great experience and I kept wanting to play to see what would happen to him. In FC4 though Ajay is a very bland character with no motivation and the game did not explain how the hell he could so easily pick an AK47 and start killing without even saying a word. For me this was a real buzzkill and I hope in the next game they avoid this mistake. Except that I loved this game and this was a great review, you sir just earned my subscription!
Been really waiting for your review on this one! Awesome as always with the detailedness of my taste thanks!
Barilon Zermasimo You bet Barilon
It's funny how the first reveiw I watched of yours was lords of the fallen and at first u really annoyed the fuck out of me but halfway through I realized you actually talk about the shit that matters in each game and since then you have become my go to reveiwer,keep up the good work bro
schecter1215 Hahahaha
Watching this now..and having seen Star Wars Rogue one "It is like using Darth Vader for just 10 minutes walking in a hallway, it is cool but a big miss use of the character" damn dude you predicted the future right there xD Okay he did swing the saber around...but still!
Except for the short appearance of Pagan Min, i had a blast playing this game and loved it all the way through the end.
This guy is amazing at reviews he wasnt even thirsty for likes he said you can dislike i subbed he does it for the people not the paycheck
Leo Rivera-Castro Thanks Leo
This current Far Cry series has the most entertaining villains in the gaming industry. The mocap acting and dialogue is superb.
Thanks for reviewing the older gen version of this game since i'm getting the ps3 version of this. Even though i have a ps4, a friend is planning to gameshare the ps3 version with me. I'm glad to hear that even the older versions are good. :)
***** Yep. I am going to hit the older systems as well if I can until they stop releasing games. Probably 75% new 25% old but I know a ton of people don't have the cash for new systemsyet.
This guy deserves more subscribers. Great reviews man.
Daniel Annenkov Thanks man
"Riding elephants isn't nearly as fun as sticken them into an enemy camp, and watching the bodies fly into the air like reverse meterorits seeking orbit"
Thumps up and subscribed!
Blackie3391 Thanks for the sub Blackie and glad you liked the review man. Spread the word if you can
Loved the review! I usually went to AngryJoe or a few random YTubers but they were always long winded with 20 min.+ videos. You make the best use of the time and cover a lot of ground in such a short time.
I'll probably pass on Far Cry 4...I don't know what it is but I'm just not as excited for it as I was Far Cry 3. I'll play it eventually but not right away.
Logan Sharp thanks!
Cool review. Good job. I like how judge these games like the fun factor and not the dumb shit like the curve and texture if a pebble like ign
***** Thanks FCB
i honestly dont know why ign raters play games they seem to hate them all except for cod,
still even after watching this great review im so stumped on getting this, Although i absolutely loved far cry 3s story the gameplay was just too repetative for me and it took me a year to finish the game, i dont want to see a repeat of that boardom.
j chobes Game looks amazing. Have to pick it up.
Another great review. Something I haven't mentioned before is how great it is to see "fun factor" taken into account and the elimination of the ridiculous number system. Keep em' coming Karak! :D
My prediction that this guy will cross 450k subs when farcry 5 comes out
Constructive Criticism: The intro in your videos is often louder than the rest of the video so I often find myself turning it down in the beginning then turning it up 5 seconds later.... otherwise your work is fantastic
Troy Baker as Pagan Min? Man that guy is everywhere.
Shame Ubisoft didn't deliver a copy, but i'm glad I could see the 360 version in motion since I haven't upgraded yet. Looks playable enough for me!
Guys starting off my Far Cry 4 Story Let's Play Tonight. TUNE IN AND SHOW YOUR SUPPORT.
