Pros:
The Graphics:
I’ve said many times before in this generation but it keeps being true. Far Cry 5’s graphics are one of the best looking games in the market especially running this on 4K with a Pro. Rural Montana is the last place I expect the series to take place but Ubisoft really hit it out of the park with the graphics of the game looking down right photorealistic at times. All while having a locked 30 frames with hardly any drops even in the most hectic of scenes where explosions are going off everywhere and it’s none stop chaos. We come a Far Cry from the third game with unstable frames in the past generation of consoles. Ubisoft should be commend for pushing the envelope.
Gameplay:
Simply fun and enjoyable to blast around Montana taking down cultists called peggies. Gunplay is tight and responsive. The myriad of choice returns how to play guns blazing, stealth, and even with air support now. Just cathartic fun. A somewhat new addition is the ability to recruit npcs and bring them with you along the fight. I would I appreciate it more if most of them didn’t suck. AI is piss poor and pretty much one or two are only useful to you like Jess the huntress. Alternatively you can play Co-Op and take down missions. It works the same as Far Cry 4 and that you only progress on the host’s world. The open world has been refinited where you don’t open up and see a bunch of icons and you have to actually explore the world to find stuff. Gone are the towers you have to climb to defog the map now actual exploring is required. It’s still the same Ubisoft Open World style but it has been refined to better and these changes show I had more fun in this open world than other ubisoft games.
Music:
The ost is one of the best in the franchise with country and religious themes all mixed in to make a fitting soundtrack. Also sound is great and voice acting is serviceable.
Not Political:
What might a disappointment to some or a relief to others is the lack of political commentary in Far Cry 5 plot. At first glance the plot might be some commentary about Middle America as the story is about some religious zealots who uses a well armed militia to enslave a town. At the end it doesn’t make any commentary or critiques about middle america or even religion for that matter. It can be a disappointment to some who want to see some over all message. But for me and others who don’t want games to be politicalization it was nice to see that Far Cry 5 wasn’t some modern day political commentary about rural America. At the end of the day Far Cry 5 is anticult and that’s about it. So for those who are Pro Cult Far Cry 5 is not your game.
Far Cry Arcade:
A content creator that has massive potential for those who master it and put content regularly. At the time of this review it’s still barebones as the game has been out for a week only but in a couple months I can see great things coming from the content creator. If Far Cry 5 plays its cards right they can have an unless stream of content released for free by the community. Arcade a nice edition that adds more value to the game.
Cons:
Far Cry does so much right however it does stumble along the way with some bizzare choices.
Silent Protagonist:
The silent protagonist returns something that has not been done since Far Cry 2 and it's just bad. In the game you have these face to face cutscenes and your character is just an annoying mute. Silent Protagonist can be a good thing if implement right and Far Cry 5 doesn’t implement it right. You have all these characters talking to you and about you. No lines of dialogue to respond with either to justify the choice of a silent protagonist. I know the deputy can be male or female but your telling me a billion dollar company like ubisoft couldn’t hire two voice actors one male and one female to do the voice for the protagonist. A step back from the past three Far Cry games which had a talking protagonist.
Story:
Another weak point in Far Cry 5 is the story side missions can be fun and goofy. But the main story is mediocre at best. The cult are your clear cut bad guys. The Seeds try to seem sympathetic to you with the stories of their past having tragedy but it doesn’t really work with giving them character. The basic gist of the cult is their doomsday preppers and the end is near and they want to build the society after the fall of civilization. They also kill or kidnap people against them and at the end it just a generic evil organization with no real depth. Joseph Seed is no Vaas, no Pagan Min. He a step back from the evil but likeable villains of past Far Cry games and that’s a shame you see some potential but it poorly written. A majority of the characters are also forgettable which is disappointing as Far Cry is known for its colorful characters.
Microtransactions:
Useless and glorified cheat codes that you pay money for. Tolerable? Yes. No Battlefront 2 here but still should not be in the game it already has a $30 Season Pass how much more monetization does the game need? Still completely ignorable but should not be in the game as stated before there justed cheat codes and cosmetics that you pay for. That you can unlock by playing the game. So please don’t buy the microtransactions.
Melee Combat:
The thing that made me hate Far Cry Primal returns in all it’s floating glory. While shooting is nice melee is not. It feels floaty and unresponsive. Lucky you can ignore it mostly unlike Primal’s limiting weapons.
Conclusion:
Far Cry 5 is not a reinvention of the series it’s still the same formula but refined to make it better than it was before. The return back to gunplay from the spears, clubs, and axes from Far Cry Primal is just what the franchise needed. The setting of Montana although unexpected was a welcoming surprise and end up stealing the show along with it soundtrack. 2018 is shaping up to be a great year in gaming compared to the disappointment that was last year. Between Dragon Ball Z Fighters and the sleeper hit Kingdom Come Deliverance. Now Far Cry 5 easily one of my top 5 games of the year so far. I absolutely recommend Far Cry 5 it’s glorious cathartic fun.
Not a fan of Far Cry 4 or Far Cry Primal, I originally was skeptical. Vaas captured my attention within the first ten minutes of FC3 so I figured I’d give FC5 thirty to sixty minutes to sell me. I knew I was putting FC5 on a huge pedestal to beat out FC3, but the first twenty minutes of FC5 sold me. The eerie and unsafe atmosphere of the church was palpable, the music was spot on, and I felt as lost as Deputy/Rook by the time the prologue of the game was over. There was no escape.
Soon enough, I was drowning in FC5. Each playable region in the game (Holland Valley, Henbane River, Whitetail Mountains) offers its own array of music, enemies and individual antagonist that will hunt you down. And when I say hunt you down, I mean it! Everything you do in the region has its consequences – from looting a truck to clearing an enemy outpost to completing missions across the regions. As you gain more experience and resistance points (the system of helping the non-cult residents to fight back against Joseph Seed and the Peggies), you will come face-to-face with the Father and his psychotic family.
Familiar with two actors who played the Seed brothers (John Seed – Seamus Dever, Jacob Seed – Mark Pellegrino), I was eager to learn about them and their adopted sister, Faith. I realized they were as damaged as Vaas was in FC3 – if not more. I wasn’t eager to kill them because, though they were monsters, they were victims in their own right – abused and manipulated by Joseph Seed. I applaud the developers for making me care for these characters.
I loved the inclusion of fishing and simple exploring. The graphics were so beautiful on my PS4 Pro, I have spent hours just exploring and taking in the sights. The beauty the developers captured have even made me want to take a trip from my busy city-life in New York to the tranquility of Montana.
A true sandbox game in nature, I really enjoyed Far Cry 5. I wish there were other things put into the game, such as actual voice actors for the male/female versions of Deputy/Rook, and a variety of choice options that would affect the outcome of the game more than what we’ve seen. Still, a very enjoyable game I’m still playing through today.
