Far Cry 6: The Best Yet - Luke Stephens

“The Best Far Cry Game Ever Made.”... That’s what I’ve been hoping I can say about this game for a year now. This is one of my favorite franchises that has so much potential but so often falls flat. Ever since Far Cry 3 I’ve loved these games but nothing has even come close to 3’s fantastically well written and performed villain, Vaas, or its cohesion within the game world. But with this game coming I knew there was a chance we could have an upset... After all, Far Cry 6 is the hotly anticipated next entry in the long and storied franchise that has struggled with its identity for the last few entries. Once a grounded and gritty first person shooter, the series has fallen victim to the populist in tropes that have ruined so many intellectual properties before it. In recent years Far Cry has given up many of the realistic mechanics in pursuit of larger maps, more approachable gunplay, and repetitious gameplay structure. But Far Cry 6 is Ubisoft’s attempt at a return to form for the beloved franchise. They’ve focused on the writing, they’ve brought in A list talent in the form of Giancarlo Esposito, and an active effort has been made to give all the weapons a unique feel and style. But is it enough to make this game the best in the franchise or does it fall flat once again? Let’s get into it.

I find it strange when people say “I hate when games make me do side quests or objectives to progress” when sometimes it makes sense with the actual story. In this game for example, wouldn’t it be weird completing the whole game, taking down the tyrant and everyone lives happily ever after, but then the slave camps are still operating as if nothing happened?

[@nymade4130]

I think people have gotten used to playing open world games that let you blitz through the story and then some form of “there’s still a lot of work to do to overthrow ____” happens and you basically have to actually fix the problem of the game. Like I loved Ghost of Tsushima but it felt weird that I “drove the Mongols out” just for the Mongols to still basically everywhere. I like actually accomplishing the goal of the character like you said

[@lamenamethefirst]

No one has a problem with side quests. It's a problem when they're repetitive as hell. I don't understand how people praise mediocrity so much these days. Ubisoft milks a formula until even the thoughtless drones get bored. There's good moments but overall it feels very rehashed. There are plenty of open world titles where side quests are part of the story but aren't entirely predictable.

[@lamenamethefirst]

What I like most about FC6 honestly, is the map. I've wanted a tropical island setting for the longest time now.

So Far Cry 6 with a voiced character and 3rd person cutscenes, 60 FPS on Ps5, and going back to a tropical fun island setting with an amazing villain played by Gian Carlo is actually gonna make Far Cry 6 the best since 3 🤩!!!!

Luke, I think the reason that your sniper was doing low amounts of damage is that you were using the blood dragon sniper which fires explosive rounds or something like that. It's supposed to be good against vehicles but it seems to suck on people

[@CherryBoob]

WARNING! Carry on reading! Or you will die, even if you only looked at the word warning! Once there was a little boy called Joey, he was ten-years-old and he lived in a mental hospital because he posted a shitty copypasta onto a People Playground mod's comment section. He got so bad he went to kill all the staff in the hospital so the Feds decided that best idea was to get rid of him so they set up a special room to kill him, as inhumane as possible. And he sat there in agony for hours until he died. Now every week on the day of his death he returns to the person that reads this letter, on a monday night at 12:00 a.m. He creeps into your room and kills you slowly, by pegging you and watching you bleed to death. Now send this to ten other profiles on this one site, and he will haunt someone else who doesn't. This isn't fake. apparently if u copy and paste this to ten comments in the next ten minutes nothing will happen

I had the same thing with other sniper rifles too (with ap ammo), so it's most likely a bug. Sure there are some ammo types that doesn't kill an enemy with only one headshot, but for me the blood dragon sniper killed every enemy that I shot in the head.

I know its not very big brain of me to say this but I prefer Far Cry 4 to 3.

[@mathieuedde1465]

I 100% agree with you, story was literally the only thing 3 did better than 4, and while vaas was great, the fact that halfway through the the game he’s replaced with Hoyt who wasn’t half as compelling really drags the second half of the game. Pagan Min at least was a consistent presence throughout all of FC4, and because of that the second half of FC4 felt better than FC3s second half

You mentioned immersion breaking as someone got shot with a nail. Fun Fact, when getting stabbed or shot, or really in any situation that causes severe pain, people don't yell out - they lose their breath. If you kill someone within a few seconds (very difficult to do in real life) they can't make a sound, because they're busy inhaling, having had the breath knocked out them. Trust me on this, that's very lifelike.

I think Far Cry is its best when it's built on top of a single theme and all of the game feeds into that theme. I kinda would like to see more bleak and oppressing Far Cry in the lines of Far Cry 2. These new games are just... "campy fun", I guess... Now that's not bad on its own right, but when 80% of AAA games are "campy fun" in their atmosphere and story, it's really not standing out.

The world feels like it was smothered with hopelessness, the breaking guns, malaria, constant checkpoints that always repopulate, and the way the healing animation works are all contributors among many more. This is what made you PUSH through the world, to feel that these people REALLY need help and you will die for them. Farcry 2 was DARK, 6 is not, I loved the beginning of 6, it was giving me hope for a more grounded experience and then we reach the base camp and proceed to "rescue" an old gorilla legend who acts like a comedian (kind of like the whole experience especially all your "allies" you work with later), he then gives us a magical backpack . . . .

Every camp you have to clear is a mission in itself and you can approach it how ever you wants and thats what makes these games unique. Hell my favourite games in recent years are all Ubisoft games: Ghost Recon Breakpoint, Wildlands and Watch Dogs 2 and Legion, Valhalla and Odyssey.

19:45 Okay I agree with you but that specific scene actually made me laugh 😂 "Yeah"

[@DomesticDom69]

My perspective: I played every Far Cry game since the 2nd. As someone who plays for enjoying the game as a whole package, I can tell you that playing Far Cry 6 was a letdown. It was basically a mixed-up version of 5 and New Dawn, with some regular Far Cry aspects switched up a bit. I think that the story was not really written to have opportunities to execute it well. Sometimes it just feels very off, like the lesser amount of interractions with the main antagonist - which usually made the players more angry at them and had a bigger reason to take them down. In fact, Anton sometimes does actually seem to be sane and knows what he's working towards but has real disregard for choise and how people feel, like when he talks about *spoilers* the big man Montero gets killed and farmers will be more hesitant to "rebuild paradise". Another weird thing that made me sympathize a bit was when he made a response on slavery for Viviro production. Now about the gameplay... There's the weird decision to remove perk points, but you have to get specific clothes types for each perk you want, meaning you can only choose 4 (you look like an idiot 90% of the game). This is a restriction that is kind of unwanted, but in reality fair, unlike the fact that you can literally change your weapons at any given time while playing. Severely unrealistic just like GTA games where you store over a dozen weapons in your pocket or something, you don't really have to choose 4 weapons when you can carry all of them. That paired with a fact that you can make backpacks for very niche situations makes it stray further from the classic Far Cry as we all knew previously. Some people may like this, some people won't. Now, about the map - the setting is almost exactly what the majority of the people wanted and it IS pretty big, but it falls in the similar trap as Assassin's Creed Odyssey where most of the world is feeling empty and not really interesting. Somehow it seems like there are less "outposts" to take over, and their compensation for that was to add checkpoints which were literally the same short fight over and over again with *VERY SLIGHTLY* different layouts. The only positive thing I can say about this game was the fact that suppressors overheat, adding a bit more thinking when playing stealth. Speaking of which, regardless of that change, stealth is still broken. You can just put the anti-armor ammo on an MS16 with a medium scope, slowly walk around and just headshot people to instakill them. They can't kill absolutely everyone instantly, as there is a level system in the game where some areas have tougher enemies, though they are way, WAY easier to kill with lower leveled weapons unlike in New Dawn when a level 1 weapons would take ages to take down the top tier enemy. Me, personally, I played all modern Far Cry games, some multiple times, and I can just say that I wasted my money. I'd say that I enjoyed both Primal and New Dawn far more than 6. Ironically to most people, I even replayed those games multiple times, but I don't feel a reason to replay Far Cry 6 at all. I made another new game just to see how the male Dani preforms, and quickly stopped playing.

[@joeking433]

Exactly! The designers who made Primal and New Dawn were genius compared to this disjointed mess! You might like this game if you've never played Primal or New Dawn but if you've seen the quality of early Far Cry games you would think this was really unimaginative and boring. And all the cussing (in a Spanish accent) was disgusting. It's as they thought that all the filthy language would somehow make up for the unimaginative gameplayl

[@GrrumpyPants]

I think the most "viable" weapons are the ones that fit your playstle. I use a silenced sniper with armor piercing to take out alarms and priority targets from a distance before running in with a shotgun. I use a full set of traversal armor and the supremo that gives me an air dash to maximise my mobility with the shotgun. I then also carry an explosive lmg for vehicles and otherwise sticky situations.

[@rohanalias9053]

I know how ridiculous the first far cry was

[@adamgeigerjr6995]

the reason Far Cry became successful was because of the grounded realism Far Cry 2 established & got the franchise mainstream from FC3 onwards. Far Cry 2 was made from the overwhelming opinion that the first half of FC1 where you were using bare minimum resources on an island trying to survive was MUCH more unique & memorable than the later half's mutation portion. Ubisoft listened and made the best game in the franchise imo after that. FC2 dropped with overwhelming positivity but had complaints about a few things that majority of casual fans did not like (malaria, weapon jamming, limited fast travel, respawning outposts, etc.) Ubisoft has constantly adapted the franchise to cater towards the mainstream public & broader audience. And although I will play FC2 another 100x before I restart FC3-5, I'll admit that the franchise has ultimately been through multiple interpretations. Although the latest from Ubisoft has not been about realism, I'd argue that the foundation of Far Cry was built on immersion & realism.

i love that you can just take a boat, drive off the map and then the game ends

Haven't been able to afford this game yet, but the cutscenes you showed just made my heart stop a little. Absolutely gripping. I'm definitely going to buy this game when I have some extra money on hand 👀

I really enjoyed this game I just wish it was a bit harder

[@TheBasedBalkan]

Ehhh Idk how much more realistic it is than past farcrys. I mean you can have an alligator as a pet that can be used as a weapon. IMO these games need to go back to the simplicity of far cry 2, I’ll prob be passing up on this game again even though it’s got more hype than the last few titles

[@TheBasedBalkan]

Also how does Ubisoft still not put any effort into how bodies react to being shot? Like in RDR2 you shoot someone in the leg or even kill someone and their body rag dolls/actually looks like it got shot, Ubisoft never seems to get this down in their shooter games

[@vertexedgeface3141]

@@TheBasedBalkan FC2 had NPC reactions for shot locations. I think Ubisoft flushed a lot of their developers who knew what they were doing when FC2 didn't sell well.

Incredible video. Informative, spoiler free and clear. Nice job!

The graphics are like a whole generation behind, looks like a game would look like when the PS4 just came

That is complete nonsense. The environments are absolutely gorgeous. Some of the character models on the other hand… lol

3rd person cut scenes ruined it for me. Never leaving first person was of the best about far cry. It was so immersive.

Nothing says fun video _game_ like Hollywood-level acting and well-directed cutscenes 🙄 I’m starting to feel like every new AAA game that comes out is just something that tried and failed to get picked up as a tv series

[@karlklein2263]

This looks pretty refreshing. Farcry 4 honestly really turned me off to the franchise. Whether they like it or not, having a weird romance with compelling villains are a large part of the farcry vibe. And you dont get more menacingly charming than gus fring

[@JonCom3dy]

I came into the series with 3. I was so pumped for 4 after 3 but just couldn’t get into 4 like I could 3. Loved 5 too.

I’m excited. Ubisoft games are my guilty pleasure I got this and all the DLC for 30 bucks so I’m happy to hear you believe it’s the best of the bunch. Especially after you played through 3&5 (I consider 5 the best) and still loving it has me extremely excited. Happy holidays :D
