This is the kind of song you would expect to hear about one man fighting a war nobody cares about, in a corner of the world nobody's heard of, between two factions nobody believes in.
It's the underlying theme for every Far Cry game. Fighting an isolated conflict in an isolated location that nobody cares about.
@@ayyq6795 I think far cry 5 would be the exception to that
I also love how in game, most of the time you can't tell which side you are shooting at, and how most of the combatants from both sides are just foreign mercenaries looking to get paid... fuck they did a great job with this game.
@@alphavader951
the place is isolated from the outside world tho, communication are jammed and none of the resistance even knew about the brewing international conflict against the US. Only Joseph Seed, the one with the actual resources to contact the outside world know about The Collapse in the first place.
@@ayyq6795 I think Far Cry 2 really tackled that perfectly. I mean, It talks about Civil Wars happening in an unspecified location in Africa. And it seems that some of the countries in that continent are still at civil wars which are now rarely talked about by the media.
Still playing this game in 2024. Gold.
mee too bro cheers🥂
Salute😮
@@ayushbabulkar my man😎
just pirated it 3 days ago! First far cry ever, awesome experience, if not a little repetitive lol
@misterpotato427Dude, buy it.
Far Cry 2 to me is like those blood diamonds that you collect during the game. Rough, unpolished at times, but still a diamond. It has a fair share of it's problems, but still it will always remain the best Far Cry game to me. It's the most lonely and brutal Far Cry game.
It feels like it has this "Show don't tell" story arch tbh. Something like Bladerunner. Where the world(actually loneliness for FC2) is more of a focus than the story. Intentionally or not this game depicts loneliness. Which is rare in video games. Which I found in Red Dead Redemption 2 after nearly a decade.
Couldn't have described it better
yo bro....!!!!
I'm with you ;)=
This is the most accurate description for this game I've read so far. "Lonely" is exactly what it's atmosphere and story makes me feel at times. When I was first starting to get into games back in 2014 this was the first of a survival game, I'm glad I picked a gem for my first time. So this one definitely holds a special place for me.❤️
well said
"--There’s no ideology at all. There isn’t even a desire to win. There’s no sense in it, no sense in it at all.--"
~The Jackal
I took me a while to realize there was never any war at all, only two groups of horrible people fighting on who get to oppress and profit more off that unnamed Africa country.
Just like the Jackal said, it was never a conflict of ideology, it was as if two pirates fighting over one treasure island, and as the Jackal said it wasn't about getting a piece but to acquire the biggest piece.
This entire conflict is useless nonsense.
Back in the day Ubisoft is a philosopher instead of a woke dumbass.
''You see that plane?, it can be the last one leaving the country.''
wow I'm surprised I never heard that quote. It's crazy
Far Cry 2 is the Silent Hill 2 of FPS games, it's not a game, it's an EXPERIENCE
i dont anna disagree but its not silent hill 2 of fps .I respect the opinion but we still hadnt got the silent hill 2 of fps .But its the best far cry and open world game . :)
@@itsmenoiceboibadartist6783 Not the best gameplay or story but by far the best atmosphere and leveldesign. After the reveal of Far Cry 6 gameplay i would prefer to say that part 6 will be as exotic as part 2. I am pretty sure that it will solve the gap between Far Cry 2's gameplay and atmosphere very easily. I would only like to see a new engine because it seems that Ubisoft has been using the same engine since 2012. and i hate the fact that Far Cry 6 will not be as serious as Far Cry 2. Far Cry 6 with atmosphere and leveldesign and
seriousness of Far Cry 2 would be the perfect Far Cry. And slowly we need a new engine.
They did such a fantastic job of capturing the feeling of hopelessness. It's by far the best Far Cry game to date.
@@Apocryphox
hate to break it to you but Far Cry 6 is anything but Far Cry 2. If I can describe the two game in one word, F2 is gritty while F6 is fun.
The game gets darker as you play it. It makes you realise that what the player is doing is dark and it has a permanent impact on a region.
U can just feel the loneliness in this theme
A lone mercenary, thrust into a bigger conflict than planned, with no one but himself, some guns, and a machete to keep him company. Danger and enemies at every turn, whilst being on Death's chopping block due to a disease beyond recuperation. Truly a game that succeeded in making you feel trapped and helpless, while still reminding you that you can only rely on yourself to escape the Hell you are in.
I can feel the shitty driving and nonexistent story from this theme
S_for_Short from your comment I can see you dislike the game, so why are you here then?
@@sneakyreaper391 good theme song :)
@arif mohammed he has a point they don't call it far drive 2 for nothing
Game so criminally underrated...
Far Cry 5 underrated than Far Cry 2
@@MusicandGame23 Far Cry 5 is an RPG wannabe shit game with a retarded story and environment
Yes it is
@@dariushajnala5562 tbh fc2 didnt even really have a story and has crippling gameplay flaws like unenjoyable bland driving, respawning enemies, broken stealth and repetitive gameplay. The theme is good tho :)
@@s_for_short2400 > unenjoyable bland driving,
It isn't really unenjoyable. Well if you can't enjoy the background and such and can only live for "bang bang shooty shoot" then yeah, it is bland.
> respawning enemies
I'd rather have an alive world instead of one where you can not find any enemies after a certain point and to respawn them you have to reset your outpost progress *cough cough* Far Cry 3.
The stealth wasn't even really marketed. Sure there is the option, but it works if you have the ghillie suit, and it also somewhat works without it.
And it had story the fuck you on about. You were a merc sent to kill Jackal. You got Malaria, Jackal mocked you and left. Now you are a merc for hire for anyone since that's all you can do in that situation.
It's not just a theme song, it's the feeling of a solitary, moonlit night in the desert 🌙, the sorrow of lives taken 🥀, the honor of sacrifices made ✊, and the pain of losing close friends 🕊️
It's also about how war is pointless and loneny
And Far Cry 3 is about how war and survival are insanity
And being "betrayed" in the end by fellow mercs
The best authentic farcry game... period... Expressed reality to its core...
So True. None other Far Cry games were realistic. This game was grounded right from the beginning. It made you think strategically. Plus the story was convincingly dark. The remaining Far Cry games felt like a holiday.
Oh....I was gonna say blood dragon

@@shonkylovesgaming1766 you're right about reallity gameplay, but dude, farcry 3 story tho
I remember coming back from vbs at my church when i was 8 years old, and my dad letting me play this awesome game, while he sat in a chair practicing his acoustic guitar, while i am taking out convoy missions. Some Video Games just are apart of you forever.!!! Dad your the Best!!! Such an Amazing Time of my Life!!!
Your dad is a g
Yes,our childhood i missing
8 years old?? Holy shit
I just wanted to say that, even all of these years later, Far Cry 2 still hits different. The atmosphere, the immersion, and the gritty realism remain unmatched in the series, IMO.
This main theme is a big reason I get so nostalgic about this game. It's just...mesmerizing and beautiful, and you can really hear the loneliness, the anguish it is conveying. No other Far Cry game has had this much of an emotional impact on me (maybe FC4 or FC5 came close).
Teardrops fell from my eyes during that high note on 1:09. Remembering those good old days when I used to play all these games.
one of the most perfect, memorable and underated games i've ever played
Still playing this game often throughout the years. First on a radeon 4890 in 2009 and now rtx 3090 on triple screens. It's amazing how well the visuals held up and it works flawlessly on nvidia surround
Played the entire far cry franchise except this game (and far cry 1). Didn't expect that i would enjoy it much, but after I played it and completed it, it made me think "so THIS is the ACTUAL far cry experience." Amazing game, and a brilliant subtle narrative.
The time when Ubisoft had all our respect for creating down to earth realistic storytelling. Replaying this beautiful game now. Old is indeed gold...
1:10 ultimate goosebumbs
This soundtrack never fails to bring back memories of those lonely nights spent sneaking across the African Savannah, driving across desert sands under the pale moonlight, constantly looking over your shoulder for enemy outposts and scout vehicles, having to save but even mercy kill buddies when they fall in battle, killing, blowing up and doing errands for two greedy factions fighting over a country whose future is as bleak as your prospects of survival .... Far Cry 2 is where shit got real.
Far Cry 2 shows how these forgotten wars really are, people die, blood is spilled, names are forgotten, mothers and wives cry, and it all didn't matter in the end. It's brutal, because it's like real life
I just got Far Cry 2 and I am not dissapointed with the game. Ever since I heard it was the darkest Far Cry, I wanted to play it so bad. Then I saw it's realistic details which made me want it more. The Soundtrack is amazing as well. This is the best Far Cry in my opinion.
I like how it starts like a kinda mysterious, thrilling low song, like to show how bleak the situation is, then slowly picks up pace and the end sounds somewhat hopeful but melancholic
The nostalgia the feels, man this game was truly a masterpiece
baaba maal. The same singer who made the soundtrack of black panther, the black hawk down and movie PASSION
Thank You for this. A lot of people talk about the song and list it, without mentioning who the artist is.

Remember the first time I played this game at my friends house and then I had to pick it up at gamestop. I was hooked and this game was a huge part of my childhood. I remember all those summer days I spent busting out missions and making custom maps. I was happy and i didnt even know it.
My friend had it. I wanted it so bad, but my parents wouldn’t let me because in a playthrough that i showed them he shot a dead guy in the head like 10 times.
This game is epic and what makes it more realistic is its African music, salute Baba Maal the singer.........
Marc canham made the song..
@@alexandreromao8410 Thanks ! Hope one day Ubisoft makes this epic game once again with the same music and dynamic gameplay without crosshairs..........love to Ubisoft , God bless Africa.

Far Cry 2: Hold my music
@@lashaxoperia5917 he is talking about ost
At 1:08 the notes start to clash after the boom of vocals with the orchestral instruments, alluding to the games themes of grey morality, which immediately offputs the player , foreshadowing the brutal and morally grey events to come.
A remake of this game would be awesome. I just wonder if it'd be possible in this day and age.
I would just hope they maintain the score and atmosphere. Ubisoft has been very lackluster these past years
i don't think Ubisoft would they forget about this game and beside they love far cry 3 and never bring up far cry 2 which sucks cus 2 was a great game
It’s not a song...is a trip down memory lane...FarCry 2 forever
Still playing this game...I don't get bored of this game
I wish Far cry 6 should go back to Africa but set in 1990s
I wish it will be in South Amerika or Micronesia like far cry 1 :3
@zikkimeister So it turns out it was South America. I'm honestly tired of these South America settings

Far Cry 2 is one of my favorite games ever. Such a well-written and well detailed game. Back when Ubisoft legit poured their heart and soul into the games they make.
Beautiful, Just beautiful. No matter how many times I hear it.
The singer, Baaba Maal also singing for Black Hawk Down and Black Phanter soundtracks, his voice is so unique, you can recognize him so easily
The pain and loneliness in this song breaks my heart in two..Baaba Maal Never Disappointed us..what a voice what a talent..glad i found him through this game
None of the new far cry games can do for me what this one did when it came out. Has a very immersive Metro feeling to it and is still graphically pleasant to the eye in my opinion. Wouldn't be against a remaster.

The most realistic game I've ever played in my life, literally, a piece of art.
I first played Far Cry 2 when I was 12 years old, 2 years after its release. I played a little bit because the gameplay was amazing (it still is) And I didn't touch it again until 8 years later when I was 20 and stationed in South Korea. It was then that I finally understood the theme of this game. There are no good guys or heroes in this game, just people looking for a paycheck, no matter the cost. It's incredibly bleak but God damn if I didn't have the most fun playing it. I wish more people heard of and played Far Cry 2
While I was playing this game, I literally felt the loneliness the game character was facing! This is not just a game, it's an emotion!! Also this song!!!! A piece of diamond!!!
I'm from Russia and played this game in 2008. Then I got into this game and understood its essence. The music is very atmospheric and gives off a sense of hopelessness. War is evil.
The AK-47 must piss you off then lol
Thanks to Baaba Maal 🇸🇳 for this epic soundtrack 🎶🎵🎼!
This game is underrated, immersive, and atmospheric. And fc2 doesn't go overboard and get too difficult due to realism. For those who think that the game is too complicated and incomprehensible ... what's wrong with you? I understood everything, despite I was little, stupid kid
deltarune PFP and doesn't only play platformers and rpgs? woah respect
Never boring this game, I'm always love it when i was 12-15 years olds
Best Far Cry game...
Old is Gold...Graphics...story..Music...Gun Shoots...Start...Jungle...It was A Master piece by Ubisoft........Ahhhhh Memories
If this game ever get a remake,i would love it to have as subtitle either "Blood Diamonds" or "Heart of Darkness"
ME TOO
Far Cry 2: Heart of Darkness
god that's just a fantastic title
Far cry 2: Heart of Africa?
Far cry 2 : The war of darkness / The Diamonds of darkness
I like the reference to Joseph Conrad's novel.
Maybe the most atmospheric entry in the series.

Best FAR CRY game in my opinion, fits the title description so well
I reinstalled and play it still nowdays in Win 10. Have also Far Cry 1,3,4 etc...BUT THIS...THIS IS UNTOUCHABLE!
One of the best soundtracks I heard in gaming. So much memories, a hardcore game degraded into casual, mediocre game later on. It had a bigger story, purpose, mature, hard, realistic.
Best Ubisoft game ! I wish they made games like these more.
Reality level in this 2008 master piece still baffles players out there
i don't understand why Far Cry 2 is criminally underrated. It has a lot of unique mechanisms in the game such as degrading of any guns in later use, the malaria time limit system, and self-recovering injuries. this was WAAAAAAAAAY more realism at the time before escape from tarkov or even PUBG. This music piece alone is wonderfully crafted and memorable enough that most players likely to replay the entire game again
I used to play this game 10 years ago when I was 4 or 5 years old the nostalgia is real I still play it to this day i wish we go back to the old days I miss it a lot of having fun
The first Farcry game i played and damn...
good times
Every feel can be quite lonely with this iconic FARCRY 2 song.
Man I still remember playing this game on my ps3
Such an addictive game and very nice story
Farcry 2 for me is the best and only farcry that impressed me
Amazing track to this day. Farcry 2 still hits too!
For me the best Far Cry game yet. The atmosphere was so awesome, the music, the map... All of it.
Love this game. One of my favorite FPS games of all time. The atmosphere was really dark and immersive unlike Far Cry 6 "war is fun wooooooo"
This Far Cry 2 Game is the best of all among even the latest of the series. This is a loop where a hero is fighting over and over and the isolation is beautiful and deadly too.
Thinking back on this game... I haven't realized how much the overall vibe of the game has changed. Far Cry 2 was absolutely brutal. It didn't hide the fact that y/c was in a war torn region of Africa, and death was at every corner. The humor was practically non-existent.
It's not to say the last four games weren't good. Not at all. They were fantastic games, and I had fun playing them. But it definitely sets a night and day difference. In one game, you had to worry about your gun not jamming up on you. You had to put your own mind at peace knowing you have medicine for your malaria. And... the others, you were endowed with weapons that were so powerful, they might have even been a bit silly. A shovel launcher, or CD shooter. You also didn't have to worry about saving your buddy from death either, or risk losing them forever.
Come back Far Cry !
I feel like far cry 2 is the first true far cry game, 1 was a tech demo by crytek
I love this game with all my heart
This track especially the end gives a feel of tragedy and an "everyone loses/dies"
Almost every far cry soundtrack is awesome
African vocals are special. Remembers me of the begining of the movie Tears of the Sun with those vocals I believe are from Lebo M.
I'm imagining a Far Cry 2 remake Trailer (a real remake, not a remaster) with this music in the background and it gives me chills.
Bro, this game, i just love it, I WANT A REMAKE, FROM SCRATCH! WITH THE SAME THEME AND FEEL
Kinda like how they did with the original Mafia. That would be sick.
a remake? Why?
This game really stood up to It's name. It't a far cry. Nobody, in the middle of nowhere fighting for nothing, yet you feel important and you cried.
You know this song kicks in when you throw a molotov in a open field and see everything burn..
This is the kind of song you would expect to hear about one game publisher publishing games nobody cares about, in a corner of the world nobody's heard of, between two major digital distribution services nobody believes in.

This soundtrack sounds like.. my childhood
Did you live in Africa when you were a child? If you were, damn I kinda respect that but you probably didn't
@@TheONLYFeli0 I mean the soundtrack sounds like my childhood because I played this back in the day.
I edited to clarify.
Some Forest areas are similar to the countryside where I traveled in Amazon. Also the housed, sand narrow roads and wooden Bridges.

I still reinstall and play this game at least once a year or so. The ambient noises among the jungle and desert is insane. Many times I think it should be called "Far Drive 2", the gameplay is slow and methodical, designed to get you to appreciate the visuals of this still stunning game.
Best FC2 soundtrack and games
This game has the vibe of the 90's atrocities that took place for real in Africa. Only kids from the 90's could grasp the story of the game, where all around in the world you could hear on the radio station or tv about african insane wars, genocide, etc. The 90's were beautiful years, but very fucked up for some parts of the Planet.
