The villain here just makes the game, I think his act in Breaking Bad got him here. Anton is a familiar face (Gus) from Breaking bad. The actual name of the actor is Giancarlo Esposito and put together another great performance here with the video game Farcry 6, and hold up, this is my first Farcry game.

Damn that was a crazy ride. I forgot how big Ubisoft open world games are, the graphics caught me off guard.

It's so funny when open world games like this give you so many choices on how to play or what to do and I end up just doing the bare bones basic linear story, this time with a little achievement hunting with things like fish 10 fish, destroy every military stronghold, fully upgrade a weapon etc.

The world of Yara here is legitimate, the ending is satisfying and the story is a service to revolutionary uprising societies.

What did GAF think of Farcry 6? Brilliant or total cheese?

Worst of the series in my opinion. Part of the Ubi decline in recent years. Pretty much everybody you meet in the game is cringe as fuck. Celebrating top surgery? Yeah, that is in FarCry 6. The series peaked at 3/4.

Series peaked at 2 IMO. It was actually a really unique game at the time.

I actually enjoyed 6 a lot more than 5.

Wacky and fun missions. Lots of fun weapons too.

Agreed. I found it pretty but pretty bland gameplay wise. I think 3 was the highlight of the series and it's been steadily downhill since then.

After trudging through FC6, Ubi will really need to shake the formula up to get me onboard for FC7.

Peak too big for it's own good Ubibloat. The story was terrible too. A UBISOFT ORIGINAL (go fuck yourself).

They need to bring back that simple, fun XP and skill system from 3 & 4. Ever since they ditched that everything has gone downhill (except Primal. That one is still great)

 

[El Muerto]

It was better than FC4, maybe FC3. But they're all just dumb fun though. Characters were super annoying but the story and gameplay were pretty good. Series definitely peaked at FC2.

It's brilliant, but nobody will believe us due to bad Ubisoft reputation.

What's the best Farcry game ever? You mention 3 and 4.

Awful game to play. Constantly respawning checkpoints made it such a chore.

FC3 is the peak btw

 

[lughnasadh123]

Hated every minute of it till I just eventually walked away. FC 5 was a good enough time, but this? Scenery was awful, terrible characters, crap acting, uninteresting everything.

I iked Chorizo and Gus, that was about it.

same. got maybe a dozen hours in. just a weirdly soulless, boring game...

 

[SJRB]

This game is a disaster in te most absolute sense. I've played literally every Far Cry game and this is without a doubt the worst one they've ever made. I can write a 12 page essay on the brilliance of Far Cry 2 compared to this absolute clown show of a game.

They took everything that made Far Cry good and thought "how can I make this mechanic more videogame-y, tedious and boring at the same time".

A huge step back in many ways, a bland uninspired sloppy mess of a game.

I hope everyone involved in this project was fired.

Just like FC 5, 4, and 3 I enjoyed it a lot for a few hours, but I ended up dropping it before the end.

 

[Hollowpoint5557]

Far Cry 3
Far Cry Primal
Far Cry Blood Dragon
Far Cry 2
Far Cry 4/Far Cry 5
Far Cry New Dawn
Far Cry 6
Far Cry 1

Far Cry 6 is an amalgamation of all the things Ubi does wrong lately.

Story tightened up after you get off the first island you missed out on a good game pal, the surround the main character Dani with tons of weapons and good characters.

Alright I'll buy that, to keep your interest what do you think about Farcry 7 and its development? Can't wait to see what they do myself now after finishing my first far cry game.

 

[San Dan Glokta]

FC5 is one of my top20 games and I love it--for both story and gameplay. Is FC6 a good recommendation for me? Is the story and gameplay good in comparison?

 

[Humdinger]

1. Far Cry 3
2. Far Cry Primal
3. Far Cry 4
4. Far Cry 5

Could be. Usually there's something to like in most games to keep me going a bit farther just not in this case.
