What's Been Going On With Far Cry 5's DLC?

This is a video review and critique of Far Cry 5's DLC. It tries to puzzle out how they came to be, what they have to do with the rest of the franchise, and if they're a memorable way to spend time.

[@OverHaze]

I know the setting isn't exotic to you but as someone living in suburban Dublin miles of bear infested North American forest is pretty darn exotic to me. I know its the kind of thing people say without thinking but remember the game is being played by people all over the world.

[@vrapbrap]

As someone whose backyard looks like Witcher 3's no mans land, I found far cry 5's world to be quite a nice change. Overall enjoyed the game despite its flaws too.

[@Tripnotik25]

It had a better setting than FC4 as well, that kind of tried to push "exotic" to 11, didn't work out so well far as im concerned. Enjoyed FC5s setting quite a bit more.

[@waterguyroks]

Agreed.

[@robnickerson7819]

Fair point.

[@Largentina.]

I think they say that because you can find forests and grass lands in alot more places in the world than you can find jungle islands or the Himalayan mountain tops.

[@FlookersontheOptiMist]

Honestly the arcade of all things has been a better enjoyment extender than any of the dlc combined just with how great it's map creator is.

[@Flailmorpho]

the multiplayer combat however is a bit broken, considering the optimal strategy is just to find an automatic weapon and wave it vaguely in the direction of your enemy's head

[@jackleface2903]

well intil the zombie dlc came out, everyone start putting zombie into there maps but they didn't give enough ammo to fucking deal with the zombie and the zombie just felt like bullshit to deal with, also i never got any of the dlc.

[@tann3r670]

Sadly it’s said to not be returning in new dawn :(

[@Showtube887]

More For Honor u bastard

[@monochrome_soft9472]

tannerroxursox it's not returning in new Dawn because new Dawn isn't a main series game, it's a spin-off title

[@Mirokuofnite]

It all stems from a poll Ubisoft ran about future locations for Farcry back in 2015. The choices were: A Far Cry game in remote Alaska about surviving extreme wilderness A Far Cry game in a futuristic, sci-fi setting on another planet A Far Cry game set in the Vietnam war during the 1960s A Far Cry game set in the cocaine trafficking jungles of Peru A Far Cry game where you can fight against or join vampires A Far Cry game in the Spaghetti Western style set in the late 19th century Americas A Far Cry game that is set during a zombie outbreak Blood Dragon 2. A sequel to Blood Dragon with more Rex Power Colt A Far Cry game set in a Mad Max style post-apocalyptic world A Far Cry game in the present day, set in a Jurassic Park Style island of dinosaurs A Far Cry game based on the world of Shangri-La from Far Cry 4

[@Jay-dp1jn]

[@lilalmccarthy9778]

A western Farcry doesn't sound half bad

[@alexflorczyk6531]

Western farcry would be awesome. Also a zombie one would be nice if done right. Like your prayers of the military and have to clear out a city or something

[@ChaosRaych]

A Western Far Cry at this point would be relentlessly compared to RDR2 & it wouldn't have a chance of holding up. I feel like they used the Central American drug trade idea on Ghost Recon Wildlands. Alaska sounds interesting though. I honestly wouldn't mind the vampire one either.

[@lilalmccarthy9778]

@@ChaosRaych I liked rdr2s story and graphics but the gameplay and missions weren't that great tbh, I think farcrys gameplay would be more fun

[@not8719]

I would LOVE to see a stand alone Far Cry Vietnam game or an open world Vietnam game in general. It’s such a dark moment in American history and was absolute pure hell.

[@huwguyver4208]

It could work if they made it more dark and morally ambiguous like FC2. But these days Ubisoft would probably not be able to help themselves but to make the blood-soaked jungles of 'Nam into a wacky fun-ride.

[@NoWhereMan95]

It would be bold if they let you play as the Vietnamese, but I doubt they would do that.

[@midshipman8654]

Not I read the things we carried and I absolutely loved it. Not because it was dark, but because it was complex with no real right answers and it gave this sense of raw realism with its different character’s different musings and interpretations of events. The guy thinking about his friend sinking into the septic run off was one thing that had a depth of meaning all to it’s own, while there were things like the solders nice interactions with an old Vietnamese man, or the morality of fighting for something you do not particularly believe in (that last one really stuck to me because it didn’t just preach the cliche ‘only fight for what you believe in’ narrative but it delved into what it meant to do something you didn’t want to do because respecting the law means that you can’t always choose what you want to respect, as well as the role of peer pressure).

[@winstonchurchill624]

Not I'm not sure that an open world game would really work in Vietnam, but they could make a game set in Vietnam with an amazing story. Though I am not sure that Ubisoft could pull it off.

A wild question you guys, how would people feel if Noah did a retro review on Dawn of War and its expansions (Dark Crusade, Soul Storm, Winter assault and so on)?

[@leejuicy]

Or even better on the whole series and how it fell apart

[@matthewsinclair8198]

@@leejuicy He could but my fear is that he wouldn't be able to go into as much detail on the first one and its expansions if he decided to do all of the first one and its expansions, then the second and its expansions and finally the third and its expansio- ow wait. Anyways its a nice idea but I feel that the video would be better if he just focused on the first and it expansions with the possibility of the others later on.

[@DavetheTurnip]

I'd be interested to hear what he has to say on them. Replaying the first one last year for a video taught me a bit more on moving out of my comfort zone when it comes to RTS gameplay.

I love Far Cry 5, one of my favorite games of all time. I think it was very worth the $60 and had a good time with it. But oh my god the Far Cry 5 DLC is some of the worst AAA gameplay I've ever experienced. The Vietnam one was kind of ok, but the other two feel like they don't know what fun is. It's very obvious that Ubi did not give a fuck about the quality of the DLC. No matter how much I stress that it's awful, the first time you play it you'll still be astounded at how bad these DLC's are.

[@Ruddi031]

Same with me. Far Cry 5 was one of the best games of 2018 for me, but the DLC is just... horrible. I liked "Lost on Mars" but the other ones were just a waste of money.

[@Ruddi031]

Like, did they even use professional actors, or was it just whoever was around in the office that day?

So to move forward with the channel he'll be posting them any way as a kind of apology for his absence. He's got a few things planned. Like a West coast fallout road trip. So you'll get 3 more likely shorter videos real soon.

[@James-rc8wr]

@@leathery420 Honestly, I think I prefer these shorter form videos. While I love Noah's work, the longer a video goes over an hour or so, the more tired I become with the vid (apart from episodes where it's the breaking down of a series or franchise). For someone with limited time, these shorter form ones are more convenient to watch and easier to digest than jumping back into the much larger ones. I can't imagine the tremendous amount of work that it would've taken to produce the Neverwinter Nights or Far Cry video, so I can appreciate the burn out. I don't mind seeing shorter videos in the future if it leads to more of them as a whole.

[@leathery420]

@@James-rc8wr I'd have to mostly agree. I mean I really do enjoy the long ass videos, but I do understand if it turns some people off. I can also see how overly long videos may become productivity hurting effort dumps. Plus some topics like Far Cry 5's DLC just don't really warrant an hour long plus video. Noah deciding to release the unfinished videos was really a pleasant surprise. I and I'm sure others noticed he was struggling to meet the deadlines he had imposed on himself. I kind of thought we'd just lose a month or two worth of videos, but he still has something to show for it even if it might not quite be up to his regular standards. It's really quite impressive the amount of professionalism he is putting forth. I know myself and like many others would have trouble trying to not just glossing over our creative difficulties and saying we'd do better in the future.

@@chris.hartliss admittedly, bad stealth can be really fucking tedious. Even good stealth can be pretty boring at times.

I can't wait to see you do New Dawn

[@Iriseon]

Sometime in 2015, the Far Cry devs polled players on what future settings they would like to see. Vietnam, sci-fi on another planet, and zombies were all part of the poll. www.eurogamer.net/articles/2015-01-05-ubisoft-polls-public-on-future-far-cry-settings

[@doc325]

Your analysis was well thought out, accurate, but one thing you may have overlooked, regarding the Vietnam DLC, is in the main game, a guy asks you to find 12 lighters that were his buddies as he's the last one of his unit still alive, and wants to ensure these lighters are secure. Most would immediately think, I am not combing a county sized map, spending many many hours looking for some damn lighters. The point of the story is to give you context as to why these lighters are important, and once you gain perspective, the reward is not the cache, but doing something for a veteran who has barely survived hell, lost friends, all while collecting tokens so that those men are never forgotten, at least by their brother Marine, and while he's old and that's old history, that old Marine is still there for some random moments every day, and there for hours every night. Those lighters would represent some closure, and those who live with, and love enough to tolerate a severe PTSD vet, would get those lighters without hesitation, because they know they represent the stuff their vet can't talk about. Now that might pull at your heart strings, but as a severe combat PTSD veteran, I quickly realized that awhile on the surface, that would appear to be what the devs were going for, in fact, their motivation was trying to get players motivated, by putting them in the Marine's shoes, in reality they put a lot of effort into a boring overly long fetch quest, that is forgettable at best.

[@aames1089]

Shawn Kendrick that was amazing. Bravo😊

[@Birdmastr377]

I was wondering if you were going to follow up Far Cry's video with a DLC special, and I must say, you were spot on with the point about how little had been said about them. I remember a first slew of videos by IGN and a few other gaming centers on youtube that talked about Hours of Darkness, even fewer videos about Lost on Mars, and I never heard a damn thing about the final zombie DLC. I've lost my faith in the franchise to bounce back but to be honest, it's been a long good run, and I'd love to see you cover New Dawn when it does come out because I certainly won't be playing it. Cheers Noah! Hope you're having a wonderful day, your videos are some of my favorite content on youtube.

It's rare to see an essay on this channel that looks at a subject and comes up with "well, I tried, but this is really just disposable," but congrats, Ubisoft, you've made a slate of DLC so fundamentally vapid it has reached that high bar. I really do feel for the writers who had to write six hours of banter and the designers, modelers, animators, etc. working in the video game industry's shite conditions to produce AAA-polished versions of Giant Alien Crabs and Yet More Zombies. I look forward to the inevitable New Dawn video, the marketing attention that expansion has received makes me at least hope there's some more creative ambition behind it.

I just finished Far Cry 5's main game about a week ago. I played through Hours of Darkness having a pretty good time not great but good enough for me to not regret the money I spent on the DLC. I started Lost on Mars about 2 days ago still not very far into it and yes having a Hurk themed DLC chasing the ghost of Far Cry 3 Blood Dragon was an extremely odd choice. What's even more odd is I am actually enjoying it despite Hurk and the general over-the-top campiness of the DLC though that may have more to do with Far Cry 5's general polish as a game more than the DLC itself. So far none of the jokes have been funny just extremely cringe inducing. I am bracing myself for Dead Living Zombies lol. These DLCs are extremely strange in that they are WAY more over the top than Far Cry usually is. I mean most of the games in the series I can at least take seriously and respect that at least within the game world there are real things at stake for the characters and real danger for them too even Blood Dragon. These DLCs though are so over the top and campy none of the situations have any real intensity to them I am never worried for myself or the player character. Even in the middle of a massive firefight I feel as relaxed as when I am taking a nap lol.

[@mumdangerous]

You can blame all of the people who scream 'KEEP POLITICS OUT OF GAMES AND COMICS' for these kind of narrative failures. In the AAA gaming space, there is literally no room to make an artistic statement. Everything is sanded down and made inert so as not to piss off either 'side,' whether or not there is a side to arguments like this. This is the primary reason there has never been a good game about Vietnam because to acknowledge the US involvement there as anything more than an abject moral failure is at the very least not a great gaming experience and at worst it creates a conversation that no one is ready to have. Great vid, subbed.
