I made my way through Far Cry 3 some more today. I did another one of those dream sequences and it made me walk through this trippy underwater bridge. Someone before said that they get boring, and after accidentally bugging it out and having to do it twice, i completely understand that. They are very slow and a major pace breaker.

Shortly after the drug sequence, the game gave me a flamethrower and told me to go nuts. This moment was a lot of fun and i can understand why this is the most highly praised Far Cry game. It's so tacky that you can't help but love it. The entire time there's this catchy song playing in the background and you just get to go on this power trip of burning drugs and enemies with the flamethrower. It's probably one of the best moments in this game yet.

I had a few more screenshots i wanted to share, but Lemmy doesn't seem to want to upload them, but they basically boiled down to that my only complaints are that the game is bright as fuck (like someone turned up the saturation) and that any-non essential lines sound crunched to hell. Besides that though i'm having a lot of fun with it.

I will never forget burning the weed plantage, one of the best missions in gaming history for me!

Are the sequels as good as FC3? I never touched them.

I liked 4, it’s very much a victim of being a Ubisoft game though, as in it’s more of the same. I’d say the only difference is the setting.

5 is similarly pretty good, I feel like it removed a lot of the “Guerrilla Warfare” feel of the combat but the villain is really good and the setting is pretty solid too. I haven’t played 6 though. If I had to guess though it’s the same. More of the same.
