I've been playing Far Cry 5 recently, and found something was missing. I tried rocking an "Amendment 2" pistol, the AR-C "Stars N Stripes", wearing a shirt with the US flag emblazoned upon it and driving a vehicle bedecked with bald eagles, but it still wasn't right. It was only when I put on my gaming playlist and this song came on that I knew what I was missing - Strident's anthem of FREEDOM, JUSTICE and FREEDOM!

[@StridentOfficial]

Fuck. Yes.

[@maybetoby]

lyrics Deep inside the jungle, in the shadow of the war There rises a sinister evil The people live in fear, under a tyrant’s reign of terror Who will save us now? From out of the darkness and into the fight Broforce is coming to set things to right Broforce! Kicking ass for justice and for liberty For freedom and the flag They’re the final stand The last band of heroes Who’ll fight terror with no remorse... Broforce For Freedom! Broforce! For the flag! Broforce! For liberty and justice for all! Satan’s forces are amassing But they’ll never take our freedom We call on the defenders; on the red, white, blue avengers To liberty or death On wings of iron eagles, Broforce brings the rain A whirlwind of blood, sweat, and bullets Terrorists will pay for the blood they have shed Cos Broforce is coming to fill them with lead Broforce For Freedom! Broforce! For the flag! Broforce! For liberty and justice for all! In the darkest hour In the eye of the storm We stand together An unbreakable force of bros! Broforce! Kicking ass for justice and for liberty For freedom and the flag They’re the final stand The last band of heroes Who’ll fight terror with no remorse... Broforce!

[@maciewaciej]

After "Cos Broforce is coming to fill them with lead" there should be Broforce! Kicking ass for justice and for liberty For freedom and the flag They’re the final stand The last band of heroes Who’ll fight terror with no remorse... Other than that it's good.

[@iancomtois9832]

I like how there's a slider for "Blood" and a knob for "Sweat", but there is no dial for "Tears".

That's because they have to be manly tears.
