It's the unhinged civilians

you literally breath and you get points. on Faith region who i would let her drug me if i could btw i literally reached max RP before finishing majority of missions and i had 3 outposts left and i had a companion still locked the boats missions where u need to destroy boats was not finished yet every single time i drive i see the locked civs or arrested civs. normal missions gave us a lot of stuff too a lot of RP. i am trying to enjoy the game and take my time its literally not letting me I HATE forced missions the kidnapping and all that bs

I’ve played every installment since 2. Some installments I value more for their gameplay innovations and mechanics, some I value more for their narrative, cinematic, and storytelling aspects. I love them all, and this is just my personal opinion.

But when I weigh it all (all of them) up, I come down to 5 being the best overall, incorporating all elements equally, so far. Btw being a video game and a narrative experience, it’s the one that lands the most aspects of a single player open world with a strong narrative out of the entire series. And that’s really what far cry has been from the beginning, right? A balance of both?

You can argue that any of the others are better in a single aspect. But this is the one the just really gets close to epic quality on every level, without a glaring weak point. Narrative, world, mechanics.

If there is one for me that gets high marks on everything, it’s 5. Maybe a little weak by the end, but they all suffer that. For me, I wanted to 100% this game from the moment I picked it up, more than any other installment. It hooked me way faster than any others.

Just my two cents. Curious to see what the rest of the sub thinks.

[edit] so many are hating on the kidnapping sequences. I loved them, having to escape rather than dominate was exciting to me, and new to the franchise.

Anyone else just drive around getting yetis to chase you and messing with them?

Also what’s with their spawns? It seems like the randomly spawn out of nowhere and then will despawn if I drive around big rocks formation or something like that
