      Agreed, they wouldn't even have had to do that much. Add a scene where Min explains you'll be infiltrating the Golden Path, then basically let the game play out normally before adding a new cutscene where you walk your chosen Golden Psychopath into Min's estate and spring a trap. You could even have a similar ending with Min where you work with him or take him out, becoming the new despotic ruler of Kyrat.

    I feel like far cry 2 never got enough love. The limited fast travel, gun decay/jamming and random outbursts of malaria attacks were part of it's charm imo, but ended up being the most complained about aspects. Not to mention the insane bushfire mechanics, and a map making/sharing tool on a freaking ps3/360, this thing was way ahead of it's time.
    Sure the story was a bit forgettable, as iirc it was really just choose a random generic mercenary, make friends with other mercs and take down some generic fanatic militants, with a hint of betrayal at the end. But it was the feeling of desperation and otherness that really sold this game for me. Being revived by my 'buddy' after a brutal gunfight, only to have to go back because the buddy went down, then choosing between using your precious morphine on them or putting them out of their misery, only to learn that there's a chance that you overdose them with the morphine and lose them forever. Man I'll never forget those moments for as long as I live.

    • @onepoundswallowtwopoundcoc3115
      @onepoundswallowtwopoundcoc3115 2 года назад +3

      Trust me it gets more love then you know. It has a solid amount of die hard fans behind it. As someone who has played it to the point of getting a gun that won’t jam on me for at least five missions, it has problems. Those things you listed are both good and bad. The enemies are oppressive so casual gamers are not going to be ready for it. The malaria was more annoying then cool honestly at a certain point, and wasn’t needed to remind you how bad things are. If they lessened it after a few pills a good bit, then it wouldn’t be a bother, or should I say annoyance. The AI are wonderful. Not perfect, but the fact that guys will go out into gunfire just to drag a wounded enemy to safety is just amazing. I’ll never forget it honestly. The first time my gun burst was also insane. The last thing was as you mentioned with your mercenary friends is also great. Beyond that the gunplay is fine, but way outdated at this point. Yes it is an old game, but you can’t expect people to pick it up and enjoy it when they haven’t played it before. It has flaws. Massive ones. It takes patience to play this game. I’m a believer we need to slow down in life, but a lot of things nowadays just make that impossible for most of us as adults. So this game doesn’t have a lot of pay off for your time spent playing it in short intervals. The funny thing is that if you don’t play it in short intervals then the repetitiveness of guard outposts becomes extremely relevant. As great as a lot of things are in this game, it has aged poorly in certain areas. Also if you are not playing it on pc then it has the nasty muddy brown tint to it. The game deserves a remaster, but with some changes to it, and additions as well. The weather is amazing, and how it affects fire is just to good. It feels like you are in Africa. The problem is that at night it doesn’t look very good, and is just all to repetitive to the max on many levels before you get to the really good parts. It was outstanding at its time, but the guard outposts should have been seen as becoming a problem with the spawn rate even back then. If they fixed it then the game would instantly become so much better. I just got bored after a while of the game, and lost patience waiting for it to get to the better parts. It is good, but nostalgia/experience of this in the past makes it more bearable. I didn’t start it until two years ago. The game will never get the praise you want it to until you guys realize it doesn’t really deserve it as a whole. It deserves it for some parts to be known as amazing, but as to how it was put together, it is lacking a bit to much for such high praise. Love those things, but not the other things, and don’t want to deal with it just for the good parts. Again it is a good game, but some parts are great, but other parts keep those from making it great as a whole.

      Even though AC Odyssey was way way too massive. I did just go across it entire map and fully explored every single landmark. I reached level 40 before I even did the second main quest of the game. I know people complained about the game's level need a lot of grinding but newer AC games really does complement the completionist playstyle. I can imagine the game being very tedious if you just wanted to play through quickly for the story.

    This game should have had a fourth ending! hide the young girl, kill Amita and Sabal to take over Kyrat proper, oh well.
    I actually wish the hidden ending would be cannon, then again it could be!

    Great analysis of what I think is a great and overlooked game! You didn't even touch on PVP multiplayer though, which was a super fun (and first?!) and welcome addition to the series. Maybe the servers are empty in 2021, but when this came out, multiplayer was SUPER fun!

    It is always nice when my home country gets represented in a big game like far cry 4 or uncharted 2. I remember when Angryjoe recorded a demo of this game a while back and it actually contained a typo in the loading screen. It was supposed to say " One minute" but instead it said " one maneet" because one of the symbols were misplaced. I think that video is still up on youtube. So, anyone who's not incredibly rusty in Sanskrit than me can verify it.
    Edit- Also noticed a typo with the " Kyrat border" around 7:25. the way it's written, it says "Kyareet bordayer".

  • @deckulus3815
    @deckulus3815 2 года назад +5

    Depending on how FC6 does, FC4 is my favorite. Felt 3 was tad overrated some. 5, momentum was killed with the the progress bar forcing you into story missions. 4 i was allowed to explore and do whatever the hell i want with in my opinion a very good progression system via hunting, side questing, collectibles etc. In addition this game aged very well.

    • @KingCasual1986
      @KingCasual1986 2 года назад

      I’m with you on 5 buddy but another problem I had with the game was that you HAD to kill the 3 underlinings of Joseph’s, including Jacob who is probably my favorite antagonist in the whole series, but you CAN’T kill Joseph until the end of New Dawn. And even worse: the game try’s to make him out to be the good guy. No Ubisoft, he is NOT the good guy!

    Man you need to play farcry, it was a trip, seeing how it goes from the first one to now is weird but fascinating. The online was pretty cool, you are able to make your own islands/maps with different buildings and you had these powers that made you leap across all crazy like. It was just a lot of fun messing around in. I think at the time no games had done something like that. But maybe I didn’t play them🤷‍♂️ worth just going and checking out.

    FC4 has been my favorite so far, having played 1, a bit of 2, all of 3, and more of 5 than I care to admit. 4's location, politics, and villain just all felt more interesting and more refined. "Maybe now we can shoot shoot some GD guns."

    My biggest problem I had with 4 is that it was the start of creating an albeit good but stailing formula.
    It's introduction was surprisingly really good, especially considering it gives a completely different perspective of a game.
    ...then you realize that 5 copy pasted it, with its being forced.
    ...I just wish the gameplay got shaken up is all. Blood dragon got close

    I am a big fan of open world games but the Ubisoft games are where I kind of hit my limit at times in terms of size and content. I am not a trophy completionist but I try to eat least knock out all the map markers, side quests and stuff. I did not manage that when I played AC Odyssey earlier this year because it was just so so much to do. It is even more nuts when you consider that those games come out every year pretty much and multiple franchises to boot.
