Ranking the Far Cry Franchise

[@Cody-E2003]

Far Cry 3 will always be my favorite, Vaas is an amazing villian.

[@1KQ_]

Pagan min is my personal favorite antagonist in the franchise, Troy Baker his voice actor did a fantastic job at capturing his character.

[@adamhoward5404]

I always liked 3 and 4 the most. I prefer to just enjoy the crab Rangoon instead of all that other dangerous stuff

[@alunfarr9221]

I loved the vaas DLC with Far cry 6… he definitely needs his own game

[@guywholikesheavymetal8814]

Very good ranking, it's nice seeing New Dawn so high in the ranking. Been a fan since Far Cry 4.

[@LORDHASBECOMEABOVE]

This is one series that just continues to get more captivating. I love it.

[@coreybethea5237]

I like the game in background you have Cody good job I got introduced into far cry primal I didn't play none of the first one like classic instinct and far cry 3 I love far cry primal played far cry 5 I haven't played six new dawn when I played far cry 5 I got mad at the ending you know so I kind of stopped playing far cry but I will definitely play New Dawn definitely check out classic instinct and three I haven't played three I kind of heard of three but I didn't play it and New Dawn and the sixth one I saw the trailer to it I was kind of pumped for it but then I was like maybe but I'll check it out

Platinumed Primal. I welcomed the different mechanics. Nothing beats being able to brain a random caveman with an oversized club.

I loved far cry instincts as a boy I fell in love with it that and 3,5 and 6

[@RedRider763]

Far cry 5 was my first one i loved that game loved the setting also think its one of the best looking games i ever played besides rdr2 of course but thats my opinion i know Dang cody i couldnt belive u didnt like the ending of 5 i thought the ending was one of the best endings id seen in a video games

[@ScoundrullonYouTube]

What are the odds you're making this video I just bought far cry 3 a few days ago on steam for $5! Bro that game is more exciting than far cry 6 in all honesty LOL the guns feel beefy and the whole game is just raw and fun, you would think the graphics would be outdated but quite the opposite, you would be totally surprised to see what the graphics look like now especially if you have a decent PC

[@ScoundrullonYouTube]

Thank you for interacting with us dude this is awesome! You're the only person I watched that ever seems like he reads his comments and interacts with people that support him, your cool as hell dude 🙏🙏

They will never recapture the magic of Far Cry 3. To this day, they never have, even though they've tried like hell to.

[@great9378]

If I remember correctly Far Cry 3 was launched during a time when Ubisoft publicly hated PC Gaming community altogether (pirates…remember?)! And I’m glad they never abandoned the platform despite moving off Steam in 2019. It’s a bit ironic considering this is the ultimate PC game experience anyone could ask for back in 2012. Not a lot of people really talked about so many great things they’ve done other than Vaas (the game’s villain used on nearly every promotional material including cover arts, posters and trailers). Ubisoft didn’t shy away from pushing level of detail up-to that point. Sure, it’s not Crysis 2 but it comes close.

[@my3rs307]

I've recently started playing Far Cry 5 so here's my new ranking:(from best to worst) Far Cry 3 Far Cry 5 Far Cry 6 Far Cry Far Cry 2 Yes, FC5 is the second best for me now , i agree with you Cody. Also, the second best villain probably, after Vaas . I've still yet to play FC4 though

[@Rcheek2299]

Far cry 3 was easily the best of this franchise imo vas was bad ass n the game was fun as hell throughout the whole game never a dull moment and i really enjoyed hunting the animals and fighting sharks, clearing outpost, the characters was perfect just everything about the game was quite frankly amazing

[@lfa1908]

Btw Cody I played Far Cry 3 to completion very recently when Ubisoft gave us the game for free on their store. How do you feel about that? 😜

Joined pateron because of Cody's extra effort lately. Only pay for 1 at a time and always try to do it for channel's under a million subscribers. Thanks for the entertainment.

[@dank2171]

The rouguelite style dlc shows intersting side of the villains. I had a blast with learning more about vas until it started to get a bit stale midway through mind level 3. Only beat mind level 1 and checked out the entire map.

[@michaelcarrig627]

Far Cry 3 is the last one I beat. I will not buy another (I bought 4 and 5) until they make a new game.

I hate when a game makes a silent and/or nameless protagonist. I play games to get invested into characters, especially the one I'm playing as. It's lazy as hell and makes games bad.

[@mcreal109]

Julian?

[@jonathan-lottahaggstrom7580]

far cry 4

[@coopercurtis8502]

Far Cry 4 is probably my least favorite of the series. 3 and Blood Dragon are definitely my favorite and 5 is probably right behind them. I was just expecting so much from Far Cry 4 and it being Far Cry 3 but worse was very disappointing. It definitely isn't the worst because it has the same bones as 3. It just is my least favorite

[@alecmerritt1821]

Oh this shit gonna blow up

[@daimonatkins3046]

I have similar feelings about Far Cry 3 Blood Dragon

[@oskarfranzen4312]

Far Cry 2 for me is also more annoying than fun to play. Feel like the realism take to much from the experience.

[@CodyLeachYT]

Exactly!!!

[@GWhy-zd7gz]

Bloody hate farcry 4. Bad and boring. Shouldn't even be a game💀💀

[@Thee_Otto_von]

One reason i like far cry 5 is because of the end, it shows that no matter how hard you fight you can still lose, and that there is not always a happy end.

[@GORILLA_PIMP]

Far cry 5 is the best one i agree

[@RedRider763]

Far cry 5 is one of my favorite games

[@07foxmulder]

I’ve been hoping for the longest time that this series goes to WW2, like Nazi occupied France. Playing as French resistance, performing guerrilla tactics against the Nazis would be something that FarCry would thrive at. Side note, FC really should work on some gaming mechanics. Like if you shoot an enemy in the legs, they should actually react to that by falling down. It’s 2021, how is that not a thing lol

[@nemesis8626]

No offence to your opinion after all mine is no more valid than yours but why would you possibly want that. How many fps have done that before COD, Wolfenstein, the list goes on an on, would just be very generic idea

[@brianschlaf7007]

Far Cry Primal is my favorite of the games it’s different and cool looking and decent story and it was very fun hoping for a Remastered Version

BLOOD DRAGON will always be my favorite. That entry clicked for me like no other.

Far Cry 3 is easily in my top ten video games of all time!! Hoyt Volker definitely needs some credit too! Great replacement for Vaas after he’s killed. I also love the character progression that Jason goes through. Slowly going more and more insane as the story continues!! Awesome game and I will never forget it! This is also my most anticipated video game to be made into a movie! Willem Dafoe as Hoyt and obviously Michael Mando as Vaas.

[@ajax3748]

I agree but I really wish vaas had more screen time. Michael Mando was incredible in that role

I loved the whole Joseph Seed Storyline, would make a great film. I got to disagree about the ending, I loved the fact it wasn't clear cut and that it could be interpreted in a hundred different ways

[@SonOfAnarchy91]

For me Blood Dragon was the best, that game gave me such a huge nostalgia kick with all of the references, easter eggs, the awesome music and it just looked amazing for what they were going for. Wish we could get a Blood Dragon sequel.

[@AJsFigures]

Far Cry 3 has one of the best protagonist character development in a 1st person shooter ever. Jason goes from anxious, wimpy rich kid to survival expert killing machine and you go on that journey

[@KiramidHead]

The main problem that have with far cry 5 is the protagonist didn’t even speak at all I don’t even know the name of the protagonist.
