    Was 6 the only Far Cry game you’ve played? Because I’ve played all the far cry games and 6 is one of my lowest ranked games from the series personally. I’m curious why you liked 6.

      It was a large open map rpg with a well polished UI. Decent story, cool aesthetics. Wasn’t groundbreaking awesomeness, but we can’t all be FNV. What’s not to love?

        Did you play any of the other far cry titles or was that your first? Because in a vacuum I could see 6 being fun, but when you go into 6 expecting a game like the other far cry titles it really fell short.

            That’s makes a ton of sense then. Well I would highly recommend 3, 4 and 5 as well, but those games might end up tainting your memory of 6. Or who knows maybe playing 6 first will make you not really like the other ones.

            If you were only going to play one other far cry game I would recommend 5 as it’s the most recent title while also still feeling like a “proper” far cry game.

              Far cry went down hill after blood dragon. It was already repeat of 3 but the theme carried hard but also was lower priced standalone…

              Everything after? No thanks.

                Really? 4 is pretty much regarded as the best one by most fer cry people.

                When I made a survey on the far cry subreddit the top 3 games were 5, 4 and 3 was in third place lol.

                  4 went hard on all the map clutter IMO. The setting was alright and villain was just too close to feeling like they’re trying to capture Vaas lightning in a bottle type so unfortunately it bounced off me. Which is a shame, as it probably would have been the superior game in 3 didn’t happen and was fresh in my memory.

                  I admit, it is a “me” problem.

                    Nah man that’s totally fine. Enjoyment in video games is very subjective.

                    I hated far cry primal but many people love it.

              You ever try that primal one?

                I played it for an hour at a friend’s house. I hated it.

                For a game with no guns the melee system is going to get a lot of use. It’s incredibly basic and boring. The ranges weapons didn’t appeal to me.

                I never bought it for myself or played itore than that.
