I feel like this is the only far cry game that made me genuinely fear the antagonist, the others are just insane characters and that’s the fear factor, but Joseph is so calm throughout almost all interactions like he knows what you’re going to do
Being from the future play fc6
Villains that have a very calm and stoic personality like that can pretty much scare anyone. Even I was legit feeling uneasy every time I saw his face.
Vas in 3 was scary in a fun way, this one was scary as in “he might actually kill me at my house” scary.
Realistically going through the story, he does know what you're going to do, just not exactly how you're going to do it. His prophecy's were right in the end.
He definitely felt in complete control the whole game
not so fun fact: when you hover on eli your reticle turns green imposing that he's real and there is friendly fire before you shoot him XDD
And you fail if you don't shoot him
@@thenexus8384 you do? I think I completed it by not killing him. Idk tho because it's been months
@@isaaclagesse3410 you might've had bugged game if that was the case
@@isaaclagesse3410 I don't think you can do that, I tried and the timer just ran out and I had to start over. You're stuck in the cycle until he's dead.
@@mackbuildsthings I enjoyed killing Jacob more than I did killing John.
Interesting point about the protagonists being horsemen of the apocalypse, I hadn't considered that side of it before. I saw the Seeds as the horsemen.
John as Famine, as he's the one who rolls into the valley to take over all the farms and supplies, organises the grain storage silos, and literally cuts the flesh off people's bodies. Also dark hair (Famine rides the black horse.)
Faith as Pestilence, as she's the one drugging people and poisoning their minds. Also the white dress (Pestilence's white horse)
Jacob as War, as he's the ex-soldier, trains the cultists, and has red hair (war's red horse)
Joseph as Death, the mastermind, the final boss, the leader of Eden's Gate and the one you cannot ultimately defeat.
But it's cool to think that both sides have their own versions of who the horsemen are. Two opposing teams of horsemen, I guess. And with Joseph and Rook facing off finally, I suppose it's Death vs. Death.
(also Joesph's actor is called Greg Bryk, not Gary Byrk, btw, he was incredible in this role so just thought I'd mention! Great video)
There's some good fanart somewhere about this iirc
I find it strange and flattering that I Look like Jacob Seed
Sheriff Whitehorse. I believe there is a line about Death following you. Death on a white horse.
I thought it was as much
We may not have been able to kill Joseph in Far Cry 5, but we got to do that in New Dawn. And I smiled like The Joker once I pulled the trigger! I am well aware that he's been trying to make amends for what he's done but... I just don't give a shit. Not much of a believer in second chances.
Soundtrack is second to none in this game. Definitely one of the highlights for me. They absolutely aced that touching yet sinister country vibe. Hope is abundant in Hope county but the devil has come to the glowing golden sun.
yeah I really love the story of far cry 5 shows how ubisoft cared about there games back in the day
The cults music is actually beutiful well worth a listen
@@L-92761 "Help me, Faith."
Let the water wash away your sins,
"Oh, John" are beautiful
@@badreedinedjellali1328 Far cry 5 was back in the day? The game has only been out for a couple of years.
Faiths loading screen is my favorite score
Oh man, didn't even mention how at the end of the drive away ending, THAT SONG plays on the radio, your vision goes red, and it's implied that you killed everyone in that vehicle...Then there's the other ending, where all the nukes go off.
I think he wanted to leave that as a surprise for people who play the game.
It's interesting that at the third time in the cage with Jacob the deputy backs away to try and get away from the music box. True example of fear.
I personally fell in love with this game the day I played it. I still go back from time to time just to see the landscapes and listen to the music. I will forever hold FC5 in my top tier list for games to play when you want to pass the time and enjoy yourself. Here's a quick list of pros and cons:
Pros-
1. Great setting. Montana is a beautiful speck of land with luscious landscapes. I've been there a few times and its absolutely breathtaking!
2. The music in this game is absolutely second to none. If there were a real life radio station playing soothing country and bluegrass music like this, I would have that baby on all the time.
3. The missions are pretty enjoyable (especially the Hours Of Darkness DLC since I am a Vietnam War history buff).
4. The setup of the villains is very well done.
5. The silent protagonist is actually.... not terrible. I enjoy how you find yourself just answering some questions in your head when the characters look into your eyes and say something.
6. No predatory aquatic life. Montana has predatory life but the only thing you'll find in the water that may be harmful is sudden temperature changes and maybe some snakes or a very large fish that thinks your bright colored swimwear is a lure or a delicious fish.
Cons-
1. I will be the first to admit that I hate how you progress and the game is like "oh hey, since you're enjoying yourself too much *yank!* and then you have to do some side quest crap for a half hour or so.
2. As a gun enthusiast (again, history buff. I have lots of time both around and behind historical firearms) I absolutely hate how every time you pull out the LMG/HMG, every round has a strike primer, indicating that either there was a shitty reload or the bullets were bad and they somehow work the second time (minor thing, but dear Lord it gets on my nerves).
3. Every time you bring a gun up to aim, it rattles. I've never heard a 1911 rattle when I brought it from the holster to aim and fire. I've never heard an AK or an M16 do it either. I've also never heard a shotgun have such a..... "unique" report.
4. The suppressors in game are.... well, they're bullshit. Both suppressor types, especially the Osprey (squared edges at the bottom) have vent holes suuuuper close to where it attatches the muzzle. This would make for the loudest suppressor ever.
6. The P226 and the M9 both have a 15+1 round capacity and I know Ubi probably took them down to 10 (or 12 extended) for balancing but maaaaan it bugs the hell out of me!
7. I miss the FC2 days of having easy loadouts (I remedied this in my FC5 playthrough by starting a new character with only a primary and secondary weapon class) but having your bladed weapon as a primary or having the IEDs is pretty fun. Little things I know but I miss it.
8. Some of the companions are completely just bland and useless. Boomer and Grace make an absolutely amazing pair. Cheeseburger and Hurk make for a hell of a good time. But Nick and Adele are just pretty damn bland. I like Nick and he's a great companion when you can glitch the game just right and he runs on the ground with you, but in a plane its just..... ok, I suppose.
All in all, FC5 is personally my favorite and like it or not, we can all agree the acting and the score in this game, as well as the landscape, are all in the A tier.
I agree with a lot of your points (I did always wonder why the LMGs sounded odd to me). There is few other games where I have felt fully immersed at times like F5. Nothing beats the feeling, treking on foot high in the whitetail national park, circling round peggies and taking out dangerous animals with bow in hand
About the companions. I typically only ever ran grace or the archer chick who’s name I forgot, but Nick was only created to help effectively in Johns battle.
The gun rattle issue could be loose magazine fit, or for the ARC-L, the sling attachment it has hanging off the front. I can pick up any one of my AR’s and hold it by the grip and it’ll rattle for some reason. That wasn’t to immersion breaking.
I live in Montana (born and raised) and so I love FC5. It’s not totally faithful to MT based on my experience but I adore it nonetheless. I personally have never heard so many generational residents with southern accents. Why Nick or Mary sound like they came from Kentucky, I don’t know.
I haven’t really stopped playing it since it came out (second is Modern Warfare when my wife goes to work haha). It’s my go-to when I get off work. I’ve “finished” the game (confronted the father) about five times but I’ve beaten all the siblings probably 40. When I beat the last sibling I start a new campaign.
Apparently Ubisoft did the little magazine rattle for when you're low on ammo so that the player has an audio cue that they're low on ammo when they're in the action.
@@queensyny2663 Jess Black, niece of the dude that saves you in the beginning (and his name escapes me)
The soundtrack and presentation in this game is borderline hypnotic. Joseph seed is an amazing villain.
boring you mean
Both the deputy and the seed siblings are the horsemen of the apocalypse. Joseph isn't actually one of them but another figure in the book of revelations that's a prophet from Rome. Interesting that Joseph was born in Rome Texas.
I thought he was born in Rome, Georgia
How do you know he was born in Rome, Texas?
Joseph would be Death
"And I saw and behold, a white horse and hell followed with him" ~ Joseph at the beggining of the game
Remember how the sheriff you follow at the beggining is named
16:51 that part gives me the goosebumps, I've seen no other game does that. That's why I consider Jacob Seed as the greatest villain in Far Cry ever
my jaw dropped when I played that part
Far cry 4 does it
14:13
I still love that you can see the Rook physically react with fear at the sight of the music box.
Although I loved the game, I hated Jacob's brainwashing sections, because I figured the ending out beforehand, and the game did not reward me for it.
The original purpose of the brainwashing was to get you into this routine of killing and not realise that you are killing Wolve's Den members and Eli.
Because I figured it out, I did not kill Eli. I stood in front of him and waited for the timer to countdown the last 1 minute and 30 seconds. I did not fall to the temptation and my reward for it was the fact that Ubisoft did not like it and restarted the whole section.
I wanted to irritate the game even more and not shoot Eli again, but - I kid you not - Eli died by himself while I was reaching him, not giving me this choice at all.
I loved the game, but this part irritates me to impossibility, because it was linear and does not account any other possibility other than one.
Yeah, sadly that's the limitations of AAA video games innit, I woulda been awesome if there was a seen where you manage to break or succeed the conditioning. But heyho what can you do
in my case i didnt figure it out beforehand and absolutly loved how they did it, but if you know beforehand i do think its a lot less fun
You do realize that unless it is marketed as a game about choices, then MOST of your actions and choices are made via cutscenes. You just pull triggers between them.
That has become one of my biggest problem with Open world games. They give you a million different options but penalize you if you don't play the game exactly how they want. I love far cry 5 but stuff like that is why I can't bring myself to play through again
You shouldn't be rewarded at all. It's a cycle that mimics the fundamental aspects of Far Cry. If you choose to do nothing, you achieve nothing.
Loved this game it’s so fun and have really enjoyed all of it from the action,story,characters and landscape it all really helped me
the gameplay and silent protagonist made me get lost in the game, I felt like I was the rook. I have well over 500 hours in that game and still consider it one of my favorites
@@isjaki8940 same I really enjoyed it and was able to become the rook
ye vry gd
so fun? It's boring
I beat this game 8 times, and each time was flawless, all the characters, all the little interactions, all the fun I had with friends doing dumb shit will never be replaced. Hope county, Montana was a perfect farcry location. I get not enjoying the game for the gameplay, but feeling like you're part of a community trying to rebuild what you had lost is amazing.
overall it's a mediocre game
@@mihaimercenarul7467 negative. game play wise, Yes. Story wise? Not really, no
@@mihaimercenarul7467 overall you have no life to make such a comment when you aren’t known. Go on.
@@beastmode9576 if you think This is masterpiece you should stop gaming kiddo. This îs a Boring and repetitive capture The Base with awful missions over and over again.
@@mihaimercenarul7467 fr tho, the game is complete garbage the only fun thing I remember was me shooting a bear into the sky constantly with the weird space jet gun. Continuing on with this statement, the story was bad, the characters were bad and forgettable, the gameplay was mediocre, some of the weapons were pretty cool, it had none of the fun gameplay and story like most of the Farcry games, but the villain was mostly decent at least.
Jacob's conditioning of my brain was an experience I'll never forget!
yeah I to be honest he actually the only one who really defeated us
The first time I went throught that I was soooo shocked, I'll never forget it
@@badreedinedjellali1328 In more ways than one [SPOILER]
If you choose to leave the cult be at the end, the song 'only you' plays on the car radio, forcing you to murder the only people you actually saved.
I still get a little twitchy when I hear Only You.
Side note, my wife and I started watching the show Big Sky, which takes place in Montana, and a character has shown up who is trying to brainwash an antagonist and the song that he and his wife listen to is Only You. I thought “could this be a nod to Far Cry 5?”
@@tactikiller wholly shit, maybe!!! You got a link?
16:34 I did almost the exact same thing. I used a shotgun, so I just one tapped him out of sheer instinct and only when the slo mo hit did I realize what I just did and everything snapped into place. I was too busy worrying about the time limit or my ammo or dying and I didn't even think, exactly how the game expected me to act.
As I was chasing John Seed down to kill him at the end of his storyline, he got too far away from me and ended up getting taken out by a wild bear
There are really just about 3 Villains that are "done right" as you put it. The first is the sociopath, the guy we can't help but hate with every fiber of our being. The second is the empathetic villain, they've got a point, you can see that they've been pushed, drawn, etc to this action, but are going about it the wrong way, or have perverted it way beyond the original intent. The third is the sympathetic villain society, upbringing, SOMETHING broke them and made them do what they do. You feel for them, but they're still the villian and are doing something evil that warrants a protagonist to jump in and stop them.
this little literary tirade brought to you by a failed writer that at least tried.
4:52 that sound instantly tugged on my heart strings, you can't just do that to me man!
same. bioshock vibes.
@@moonwalker22172 believe it’s actually from Infinite(beautiful game)
I think this game is more about discussing the cycles of violence. As soon as you start shooting you've already lost.
That's definitely an intresting take
Sometimes it's best to leave well enough alone
Sometimes just going the pacifist way in a conflict is all you need to win the fight. Similar to an argument, if you yell, you lost the fight
Without violence they're won't be Eden's Gate
I should mention the music composed in the loading screens/Faith's sequences are in fact by Hammock and my god they're incredible.
For you to really find so many great things about FC5 when you said you really didn't like it is so good. You made me realise things that weren't there even though I really enjoyed this installment and have played it 3 times over now. You do such a great job. It must've been hard for you but you really nailed it. Good job man! I love your series even more now. You have a knack for this job. 👌💪
List of things I find great about far cry 5
1. Testy festy
2. Disco inferno
3. Prepper stash
4. Cow puncher
5. Zip kupka (lemme know if I had spelled his last name wrong)
6. Liberating households/hostages
7.destroying the statue of Joseph seed
8. Clutch Nixon
FarCry 5 is the only FarCry game I've played and whilst I enjoyed it there wasn't that much of a story outside the ones that you highlighted with the "Capture sequences". But I will not deny that fact that is sometimes is just fun to run around and blow shit up. I guess that's why I like the Just Cause games.
I did hear a theory once about the other ending of the game, the one where the nuke goes off. That theory is: There is no nuke and New Dawn isn't canon. What we saw as the Nuke was a result of the Bliss and that we couldn't return to the "Real world" after everything we did during the game and that regardless of what we do we still have a bit of Joseph with us.
You should definitely play the 2nd one
Absolutely loved Far Cry 5. It's easily my favourite.
Fun fact: The voice actor for jacob was the actor for Lucifer on supernatural
WHAT I DIDN'T REALISE
This was my first ever Far Cry. I wanted to help the Seeds so badly especially Faith and John when they explained that their abuse was the reason they fell in love with Joseph. It wasn't until I was in the last region (Jacobs) I bought a helicopter with a minigun. I nicknamed it "The Harvester" because a harvester puts Seeds in the ground. I arrived both times to Joseph's church in a helicopter.
FC5 has become my favorite installment of the series. I hated it during my first, unfinished play through though. Because I chose to enter Faith’s territory first, I found myself destroying Joseph’s statue very early on and it killed the pacing. After restarting and taking the suggested path, I had a much better experience. It just goes to show that just because you can make a game non-linear, doesn’t always make it better. There are several games that I’ve been soured to initially because of the choices offered to me; compelling story is difficult when it has to work out amidst player decisions that can be taken in any number of combinations.
Fun fact you can only really finish the game if you resist Joseph at the end. If you continue your save file you go right back to talking to Joseph
24:53 Also to mention Johns gate is an old ballistic missile complex, and its name is Black Horse Peak Launch Complex MT-68.
So if there were any doubts about deputy Hudson symbolising the black horse, I think that fact washes them away.
I love FC5. It’s had an indelible effect on me, I’ve run thru the campaign about 40 times at least. I live in Montana and when my wife and I go hiking or camping, it’s inspired me to make FC5 content with the video I’ve taken.
Thank you for taking the time to make such top tier content for us
I definitely have to say that 5 is one of my all time favorites, the story is phenomenal, the acting, the characters both in seriousness and joking, the guns, the subliminal messages that pertain to the story… The Shovel launcher. Everything. I just find myself having the most fun in 5 and 6. Idk why. Mainly 5.
Whenever I get a far cry itch it's so hard to choose between 3 or 4 for the villains or 5 for what is my personal favorite feeling guns in a shooter. And now it'll be easy to choose crispy guns because you pointed out that the plot is a little better than I was paying attention to
I finally played this game last month, and LOVED the super ballsy decision to put in two endings at the end of the game, and have the bad guy win in both
Honestly, this is one of my favorite games. And I am glad they tried to avoid politics.
Because it ussaly just results in more conflict in real life. And if they did it today, they aren't going to be brave enough to condem the summer riots in 2019 and just probably condem the riot on capital hill.
Yeah, I agree with that tbh.
I think if you’re going to be brave - be brave on all fronts, don’t pick favourites just because one group might hold more sway publicly.
I love the protagonist being silent. As someone who talks, wether there's someone to listen or not, it's a nice change up from most games. It allows you to put your OWN voice in the character. It lets you immerse yourself further into the game, and talk from the characters point of view, without being interrupted by a voice actor. That's just my side of things though and I see why people may not like it as much
Holy shit you actually went through with the podcast idea!
totally going to go spend that dollar for that listen.
Far Cry 5 had the best prologue of any of them. The build up as you fly through Hope county, the menace of the cultists as you go arrest their prophet in his own compound with 3 guys, and then that escape sequence.
It was the most engaging lead up to title screen. I actually died the 1st time because I got lost in the woods and then didn't realize they just keep coming at the cabin before the car chase sequence. And then the car chase... absolute mayhem. It was really good at making the player feel anxious and uncertain.
Comparatively the other Far Cry tutorial intros are very on-rails and I never worried about getting through them.
It also had the best first third of the game, where you are underpowered with junk guns always looking over your shoulder and you have to pick your battles and often run away.
And I think it did the best job with the eventual "am I actually the bad guy?" crisis.
The mind-fxcks are great too. The Only You missions where you end up smoking your buddy in a Manchurian Candidate rampage... I didn't even realize the last run, all the enemies weren't a poof of smoke when I shot them. Didn't realize it was the White Tail bunker. And then the ending...
Far Cry 5 is way underrated. Its the best one in my mind. The writing and the game play are both top notch.
And hot take... Far Cry 3 is lame. Vaas doesn't make it a good game, he was just an interesting charachter in a pretty redundant game.
I can spend hours giving evidence to support those statements and enjoy talking about it so by all means, lets have a discussion.
Pratt: Sorry
*Ad appears*
Me: I accept your apology
23:47 hey the only death seen in the game where we don't get to see a body afterwards....
I took that is that as we didn't kill Rachel we killed faith let me explain...
Joseph conditioned Rachel into faith, and the only way the sequences with her work is if she can somehow telepathically (either by mythological abilities brought on by the Bliss, or by some machine in her bunker) control the illusions people get in Henebane valley...
Some people have Expressed the theory that we don't kill Faith because we don't see a body but I'm saying it goes deeper than that...
We we're never shooting Faith because she was never physically there, PHYSICALLY she was safe in her bunker... But we clearly did something to her because we don't see her again and it's not like Faith to just leave like that... UNLESS, unless we killed faith i.e. the person she had become, And not Rachel i.e. her body and true self...
Just as the sheriff restored us to reason we restored Rachel to reason... Perhaps even at the cost of her memories, maybe she has amnesia post that fight!
I sw a Reddit post that points out that the Deputy is actually the Lamb of God casting a judgement upon Joseph Seed and his cult. Jesus would rather teach and attempt to bring peace among those that are lost but when acting as the Lamb of God, he judges harshly and brings down the Wrath of God in full force without empathy or remorse. Joseph and his cult are the sinners that we can judge by choosing to cuff him at the beginning. Walk away and we've made the judgement that the Seed Family and the Peggies are not sinners and thus are not to be harmed by the lamb or wrath of God. Make the judgement call that they are sinners, cuff him, and in doing so break the first seal that brings forth the apocalypse and the war between Jesus and his Followers vs Joseph and his Sinners, ie the game we just played
Friend of a friend is from the part of Montana they modeled Hope County off of. He said it was scary how accurate the game world is to the place he grew up. And by that I mean the map/geography, but the implication is kind of the point.
21:14
i love “When the Light Shines In” from this soundtrack. The piano score and the strings in the background are so goddamn beautiful.
This review is very well done. I absolutely loved the game and have hundreds of hours on it. The story and atmosphere as well as the soundtrack was nailed to the point
PLEASE do FARCRY PRIMAL next, is gameplay is so unique compared to the rest of the series focusing on a story of humanity banding together and is very heartfelt
My only complaint was the bar that would fill up as you progressed. I would get kidnapped mid missions for the family cutscenes. I would be in a plane 5000ft up and then I would get hit with a bliss bullet lol
Best thing to have come out of this game was this video...i know I'm late to the party, but I've been watching your videos for a while, don't comment often but felt a need to do so here...whether you knew it beforehand or due to research during playing the game, the religious aspect you went into while talking about this game was absolutely incredible, and can tell you put a lot of time and effort into it, even if you didn't like this game...your pursuit of keeping us entertained has not gone unnoticed and i appreciate all your videos.
I think the whole idea of us being ‘conditioned’ into killing Eli is a bit flawed when you remember that the game doesn’t give us an option not to do it. If you get to the end of the final conditioning mission and you do kill him, fine, but you need to have the option to wait and take the non-violent path. Most ppl will have killed Eli just because that’s the mission objective, the only thing that’ll get them out of this restrictive, unskippable level and back into the open world. Also, the fact that it’s 1) very dark and there’s not much to distinguish Eli’s model from the others you kill and 2) I doubt many ppl really cared about or even recognised Eli given the shitty characterisation in this game, then I don’t think that the whole conditioning thing really worked on the player. But then what do I know, maybe I’ve been conditioned to think that?
Great video as always though! I didn’t love the game either so it was nice to see some positives to it!
I think you be surprised, with a lot of the people Ive spoken with its did just that, my self included
Love your videos a lot, keep up the good work!
PS. Can I get a hint if we’ll ever get a persona 5 video maybe?
Only thing I wish was touched on was the endings. Joseph was right about the end of the world and there was hints at it throughout the game before the nukes went off. Or the part with Only You playing when you drive off on the other choice that you did make. Great video, I also wasn't a huge fan of FC 5, even though I got the Platinum trophy on it.
I am currently wasting my entire life trying to 100% complete the game meaning getting every perk all vehicles all weapons and completing every single mission in the game
That reference with the statue in the beginning gave me a chuckle. You sir are a national treasure.
Anyone else think that Joseph Seed is young Father Zachary Hale Comstock in a alternate timeline , Praise be to the Father and No Gods or Kings ,Only Man
This was one of the games that I actually wanted to take the time and explore everything the game and the world had to offer. Although we are trapped by a mountain range it still felt like there was always something new to discover. I forget exactly what I was going to collect, but I remember hiking up a mountain in the game to either hunt an animal or get a collectible when I heard some singing. It was one of the people rebelling against the cult by a campfire singing with some other people sitting by the fire. I decided to stop and watch and listen to the song. I thought it was a great moment because it took me away from the craziness and destruction that the cult and I the player had been doing. Some of the random NPCs in the game have some memorable moments like the fisherman telling you to enjoy the beauty of the outdoors and to forget all the craziness in the world. This was the first Far Cry game I played and I thought it was a really good game.
Something I though of during my 7th or so rewatch of this video:
During the secret ending, Whitehorse tells the marshal "You put those cuffs on [Joseph] none of us walk out of here alive".
In a way, this is true. By placing the cuffs on Joseph, you start the game which inevitably has 2 endings, both of which leaves all of the characters from the helicopter dead, either by nuclear fire or by being killed by Rook.
I used to always shy away from the fact that in previous Far Cry games the player could control the difficulty of the overall gameplay by doing more side stuff and building up some skill trees if you were breezing through missions and vice versa. In this one, you have to test every gun, explore plenty, and overall try everything the game has to offer in order to get the skill points needed. But in a way it actually makes alot of sense. If you want to try to go through the entire game with only a pistol you're not gaining EXPERIENCE in other mediums to be able to master skills. If you juggle different guns, and hunting, and recruit every gun for hire it makes sense that you as a character are able to expand your skill set. Dan Hay really reinvented the wheel for this go around, and I really think he made something unique
I'm actually upset that you didn't talk about the rest of the ending you got with the radio or the second ending with one of the top fights in far cry for me that led directly into Nee Dawn
Okay is it just me or do you perfectly mimic the video style of cinemasins? No harm btw, I love your videos and the commenting/editing style you do!
The two best things about Far Cry 5 are
1) the soundtrack
2) how it has aged seemingly like fine wine. Just listen to the news broadcasts on the rebellion radio, they are terrifyingly realistic.
My favorite far cry game. I love the ideas and themes and how they made separate soundtracks for each “leader” was perfect.
The intro to this game is fucking insane! One of the best fuckin intros I have EVER PLAYED!! I can respect that characters are plain or whatever but that intro is soooo good
I genuinely love this game for its setting and music, probably my favorite environment in video games ever as I have never seen another game set in the American countryside like this, yet. I think the thing that got me almost teary eyed would have been the songs “When that morning light shines in” and “now this old world is ending”
Farcry 5 is my favorite out of the series, I always found cults interesting

You didn't mind what they did with the combat? I figured this game would've been hated just off what they did to combat alone. I remember trying to play and my guns doing basically 1 damage and my options were grind for 3 or 4 hours doing the most boring stuff or open my wallet. I thought the story and setting were cool but the new gameplay of guns needing to be at a certain "level" to do any real damage made me not even finish half the game before I felt like I was being scammed

@@milo631 yeah see I always played like a bow assassin style character and an armored enemy runs up on me in far cry 3 I'm up for the challenge but when in 5 I'm legit putting 10 plus arrows into one dude without a shirt because I won't spend irl money on the dlc crossbow it just ruined it. I'd love to replay it though i just don't know how to in a way I'd find fun without spending money or grinding forever
I haven't touched nor seen the intro of the game. I just installed it today. Since FC3 I know this game will change how I know the world works. Played FC3 almost a decade ago and still I hear its serenade ost and it is marked in my soul. Gathering info first on what should I do first before I start this FC5 to get the best loot or advantages.
22:23 spec ops the line is a great game that delves into the connection between player and and player character. It's what I think of when i hear the line, do you feel like a hero yet.
Interesting that you did Pratt, Faith and then John; that's the exact opposite of the way I went for it. Never did finally stop Joseph though in the end.
Tbh once the Lieutenants were neutralized I spent most my in game time Fishing. Once Red Dead 2 came out THAT was my new fishing game 😅
Yep! The fishing in this game is great, can't tell you the hours I've spent treking around fishing in this game lmaooo. Doing it your way round makes the moment when Jacob states "you did everything you said he did" even more terrifying, however
I'm super glad you did a video on this one and was expecting just as you delivered, a Wins video through the lens of not liking the game. And you know what? You're allowed to not like a game but still look at it and be like "But there's this and this and this that's great!"
Also yes everything BUT the main plot missions can go take a flying leap
Loved every one of these Far Cry Videos! Surely you do Blood Dragon?
One of the things I loved most about this game was Faith's humming, it was angelic enough that I'd sit and listen to it.
If you liked the Jacob Seed sections of this game, I'd recommend Spec Ops: The Line
That bioshock infinite thing you did gave me nostalgia chills
Whatever people think about the story, you can’t deny the open world is utterly gorgeous. I thought the outposts were also some of the best designed of any FC game
Everytime I hear the song of your first sight of Columbia I get chills. GW isn't reviewing infinite yet the second I heard the piano the chills came lol
Him after playing gardiens of the galaxy: good the game is they said,play the game you should they said.
This is why I love your channel. You admit you dislike this game but you still give credit where it’s due
My opinion is similar to this video of: arrest or kill the seeds. It could of been a whole thing of defending places you’ve taken in order to stop them from taking the seeds back, or you kill them and the peggies evac the county they’re in like H county.
One thing about that classical conditioning. As a person who has thought about mind control and manipulation to death due to a form of paranoia, I foresaw that you were being conditioned. As a result I realized immediately on the fourth run that I was killing white tails, the models changed, they don't turn to ash, and I knew the final corner, where you have to take a sharp right turn into enemy fire, generally at this point with an LMG which fires slowly if you don't hold down the trigger. I knew what they wanted me to do, so I didn't. I didn't shoot Eli because I was clever enough to put the pieces together and discovered my biggest gripe with the game: Your choices don't matter even though we pretend they do.
I love this. It's always good that even when you don't particularly like a certain game, you can still see the good in it. That's what a lot of people who dislike games miss nowadays.
Great video! Could you cover Call of a duty 4: modern warfare? That era of Cod from that game up to MW3 and Black Ops 2 was incredible
Hey first for a reupload god bless and thank you man
I've never before experienced a video game villain who can just straight-up burn holes in your head with his gaze. You can't take your eyes off him
I didn’t actually fall for Jacob’s trap the first time I experienced the game. I actually didn’t shoot Eli and let the timer run out instead which just put me back to a checkpoint which was disappointing, but understandable.
I was suspicious from the start, mainly because I knew what Classical Conditioning is and how the cult would likely use it, and Pratt afterwards breaking us out only confirmed my suspicion. To me it wasn’t subtle, but I still loved what it did for others and what it tried to do for me. Also I’m sure that Pratt actually pushed Rook onto a truck on its way out of the compound.
Say what you will about the story but the gameplay was absolutely amazing, unlike FC6. You could shoot someone with a goddamn rocket launcher and it actually killed them, helicopters and vehicles with guns were genuinely fun to use without thinking about your ‘level’ and how you might have to hit enemies 20 times with a 50 cal to kill them.
This game got me into far cry and it will have a special place in my heart
Me to
I played up till the point I got the cutscene with Joseph talking about his infant daughter in the hospital. It turned my stomach so bad that a game company actually made this part into the story that I ejected the game disc and snapped it half.
You see I'm not a cult leader, I'm just ahead of the curb
*Joseph Seed* 😂😂
4:15 There is all types of racism in rural areas. Don't only criticize white supremacy because it's the popular thing to do.
Joseph after you kill all his family makes me feel really bad even for a undoubtedly insane cult leader that's how good the villains are.
Something I noticed with Faith's region and her drug trips. I only noticed it on her second playthorugh; the butterflies. The butterflies to me show the power of cult indoctrination and ideas. If you notice what the Marshall has on him all of the time. There is a butterfly on him at all times. I never thought it was relevant until that scene with Virgil, but by then it was too late.
25:39 I like how we grab John but when he tells us what he’s doing we let him some trust we put into them.
Far cry 3 is my favourite, but i'm looking forward to playing FC6. DOUBLE PIZZA!!
Dont. Guns feel WAY UNDERPOWERED.
I love this game and it might be my favorite, tied only with 3.
The charecters may not progress much but they were all so fun to me, and the guns were are so great to use
Never seen anyone do Johns region last lol I really feel like it's meant to be first since Josephs interaction with the player is empathic compared to the interactions you get with him when captured by Jacob or in the Bliss.
I know that you didn't enjoy playing this game, but during your play through, you couldn't even be bothered to go through with the animal sidekick missions? Boomer, cheeseburger, and peaches are amazing sidekicks both for the story and the gameplay. It makes me sad that you didn't run the side missions because at least some of them are pretty entertaining.. I respect the fact that you Still made a wind's video, but I truly enjoyed this game and wish that you did as well.
Believe me dude I get it. Aside from the cutscenes most of the missions involve either fetch quests, kill quests, or defense quests. However I would like to recommend you check out whitelights video about far cry 5, because he kind of goes into the overall theme that's been branching out since the start of the game up to now. Trust me it is very enlightening.
When I see a notification that you have uploaded a video, my day is 100 times better
To this day, I can’t hear Only You without thinking I’m in that killhouse again…
I understand the fact that a lot of people don't like far cry 5 but is someone who lives in Montana the attention to detail about the environment the way that some of the people talk the way they dress it's very much Montana in a lot of ways and I very much enjoyed being able to wander around in a place that looks like home.
After you’ve finished winning FARCRY you should win Doom 2016 and Doom Eternal
I know it never would work but every time I see the scene after the helicopter crash and he stands on the car I always picture the girl pulling out a gun to try and kill Joseph or have the player try and have a chance to actually hit due to the injuries making it hard but if the player times it just right boom head shot
The first time I killed Eli, I rounded the corner and went " wait this is not who's supposed to be here"
