With nebulous activities aplenty, Far Cry 4 is overwhelmingly tiring when not wowing you with its absurdity 1
Being a stranger in a strange land has always been one of the core conceits of the Far Cry series. As a foreigner in an unfamiliar country, you explore the landscape and learn about its varying cultures just as the protagonist does, helping to ground you in their shoes, the world and its story with a first person viewpoint that remains a constant throughout. With Far Cry 3, a dollop of insanity was layered atop this concept, one which Far Cry 4 brashly continues with a villain Ubisoft desperatel...

Did you like Far Cry 3? Good, then you will LOVE Far Cry 4. 1
When a game comes out which plays a lot like its predecessor, it's easy to say that the sequel is not doing anything new, that it's simply capitalizing on the prequel's popularity. However, it is important to distinguish between this very legitimate complaint and when a game recognizes the faults of its previous incarnation and rectifies them while also building upon what made it good. Far Cry 4 is such a game. It takes the open-world, first-person-shooter power fantasy that was Far Cry 3 and sh...

Far Assasinscrydogs 4 0
In terms of reviewing Far Cry 4, there is a long version and a short version. The short version simply asks two questions; did you play Far Cry 3, and if so did you like it enough to want to play more? If the answer to both of those questions was yes, then you should play Far Cry 4. If the answer was no, then the next question would be; did you play any Assassins Creed game or Watchdogs? If the answer to this question is yes, then you immediately have a very good point of reference for the ...

Far cry 4: fantastic game with missed opportunities 0
I have been playing Far cry 4 qute casually since its release and i think it's a fantastic game with some missed opportunitiesTake for example the Map editor, you are only able to create maps for single player use only. I can't comment on its usability due to low a expertise within the art content map design.I think that the co-op is a bit buggy and would gain from letting you invite more than one player per Sassoon.The randomness of the game stands as a valuable asset and is use accordingly.How...

Far Cry 4 Review 0
To be really honest, jumping into Far Cry 4 instantly gives you a few moments of familiarity - mainly because the game is so similar to Far Cry 3 - but there is more than enough different, and better, to make the open world game so much fun. The world of Kyrat is a varied one without consequence, but full of wimsy with plenty to do. You'll be meeting plenty of crazy characters along your travels throughout the country, and you'll come out the other side questioning the meaning of your actions wi...

Yet Another Ubisoft Open-World, But One That At Least Still Has Something To Offer. 0
Following up the surprising hit that was Far Cry 3 was always going to be an interesting push-pull for Ubisoft Montreal (and the handful of other studios that chipped in). On the one hand, it was innovation that brought the previous game such acclaim over the earlier installments in the franchise (which isn’t to say Far Cry 2 doesn’t have it’s fans, it absolutely does). However, on the other hand, the comfort of something that works was an alluring idea as well. Ultimately Far...

Gem of the Holiday Sale 0
Before playing this game, I had never really been down the long road, that is, Far Cry games. I briefly played the one on Xbox 360 at a friend’s house one time, for maybe 20 minutes. So, as you can tell, my experience with the Far Cry series is top-notch. I am being sarcastic of course. I didn’t know what was going to drive me to play this game nor even attempt to try playing anything from the series. I was doomed.Then came along a holiday sale on PlayStation Network. I hunted around...

Awful Side Activities Bloat the Experience 0
The spark of Clint Hocking's vision for Far Cry 2 exists in Far Cry 4, but it's buried under the weight of about thirty six Assassin's Creed games. The world is still a very emergent sandbox and a soup of different AI behaviors are able to interact in potentially amusing ways, but unfortunately the game deprecates that avenue at any opportunity in favor of filling out checklists. Want to unlock the only silenced sniper rifle in the game? Do four vehicle escort missions using the grenade launcher...

Far Cry 4 Review 0
With a solid fan base in place from the previous additions in the franchise, especially following on from the great successes of Far Cry 3, it is easy to see why Far Cry 4 had a reputation and a set of standards to live up to. After Platinuming the game and playing close to 50 hours, I can report that whilst the game has obvious bugs that plagues, its experience, and besides the little improvements that have been made to it from its' predecessor, the overall experience of Far Cry 4 is an enjoya...
