Far Cry 4

This was my first Far Cry experience, so unlike many others having come from FC3, I was blown away.

wears thing really fast. also wastes one of the best villains in ages by essentially turning him into a background character until the end of the game. fun for fans of digital cartography.

Basically a rehash of 3 but with more vertical bits.

Better and more immersive than Far Cry 3, although maybe I can appreciate it more having played it years after it came out and not expecting something as dramatic as the progression from FC2 > FC3. Watching rhinos fuck up a couple of enemy technicals is hilarious.

Sorry, I love these games. Its repetitive horrific violence and sneaking and hunting and it's a blast.

A lot of fun but the Far Cry formula is becoming far too transparent. Don't think I'll be picking up Far Cry 5 anytime soon.

As always, the modern Far Cry games are polished and enjoyable gameplay experiences. Tons of cool stuff to shoot, and cool stuff to shoot it with. Ultimately, Far Cry 4 is just a better version of Far Cry 3. Could call it Far Cry 3.5. Story is nonsense as per usual.

It's rampant similarities to the previous game are both the strength and weakness here. It's fun, it's violent, it's beautiful, it's large. Everything you would expect from a Far Cry sequel, with very little new to be found.

Even a slightly improved story can't save this from being more than just good. Some of the emergent gameplay is far less fun the second time around and the systems feel more tedious now than fun.

Fun times but just a copy/paste of the previous one in a different setting. Won't deny I had fun liberating outposts with my bow but I can do that with the 3rd opus so I'm glad I didn't pay for this one.

Better everything , worse story than it's predecesor , it's ok

in the memory of Far Cry 3

My first platinum on PlayStation, this game has a pretty decent start but things start to turn into a bit of a grind quickly. The graphics are decent, shooting mechanics ok and there is plenty of content but it starts to become the same old same old after a while. Worth a play but became a grind in the end. Plat difficulty 3.5/10 - purely for the grind.
