'It's an Ubisoft game' - My thorough and in depth Far Cry 6 review. Honestly though, The setting of 6 is a huge boon for me. Never expected anything more then a paint by numbers Far Cry game, which equates to good, dumb fun for me personally, but being a fan of the whole 'banana republic' setting in games like Just Cause and Tropico.adds just enough of an edge for me to keep me keen on this one.

I really wish they'd catch the hints and blend the elements back in that made Farcry 2 and 3 so good. FC2 was a lot more hardcore with its navigation, and vehicles were often a valuable resource in certain areas that could cause problems if you lost it- plus the exploration and open-world factor of FC2 was pretty good, they didn't hold your hand and you could progress the story at your own pace and your choices mattered somewhat- that being said, it was still flawed in some respects, but I will hold a special place for FC2. Speaking of FC3, although some might not agree, it was a lot of fun hunting particularly dangerous animals and having to get creative so you could upgrade your stuff. If they could blend some of the (well done) hardcore aspects of FC2 with some of the progression system of FC3, that'd probably make for an above-decent Farcry game. Regardless, it just seems like they're grasping at straws with how to spice up their game and are just throwing new stuff in without much thought to try and draw new people in. If they make an FC7, it's gonna have to be radically different in a lot of areas to hold my attention... the outposts system is so outdated and boring, it would be really cool if they would update this most of all as it's one of the more sorely boring parts of the FC series since FC3.
The story man. Political critique of two-party systems, the illusion of choice, ideological hypocrisy, selfless vs. selfish altruism, intellectual honesty and truthfulness behind moral nihilism. Far Cry 2 was made in times when corporate psychopaths weren't aware that their employees were trashing on them covertly via story telling. They hire dumb storywriters these days to keep people asleep, most people don't know how to interpret stories anyway.
@@koroplays3200 Blood dragon was a DLC and honestly, it played through it's strengths. But I think a lot of iconic references were already used up in the first
We can't expect God to do all the work Naaah, Blood Dragon is one of a kind. Don't ruin it with a sequel. Just make fun of a different era or something.
....So what? Far Cry: Obsidian Sands? Instead of dragons, its a dune ripoff with some mummy curses, filled with truck sized cybernetic scorpions and pyramids that makes obligatory sky beam that must be stopped. And some prince of persia references to generate hype.
looking at ubis other upcoming games I really doubt it will. such shitty comedy and just being as obnoxious as possible trying to appeal to gen z. they are so out of touch its crazy
For anyone watching this video 10 months later I recommend you play 100% stealth and treat it like as soon as you are spotted you die. It helps bring a ton of challenge and by the end it’s super fun like when I took down the two boats with nothing but a bow and arrow and some throwing knives.
I played Far Cry 5's new game Plus Infamous Difficulty. And I completed 3/4 of the game (Jacob>Faith>And then alittle of John) without the Detection Meter. The game essentially became Arma 3's base game single player. And if I wasnt maintaining 100% stealth. Or met them with OVEREHELMING AND ALL ENCOMPASSING Violence. I would get shredded in 3 shots (all guns are Automatic MGs.) Then I realized that the "Reward" was an Outfit the Shitty Launcher gave me at the start. ("Rook" outfit) that now is Devalued because EVERYONE else has it. I reccomend this. But please just play with the Detection Meter.
Yeah, but that takes the fun out of it. What I love is having the option of stealth or loud and proud, in 6 it really feels like stealth is just forced, and though it's challenging, it gets long and boring. Sometimes you just wanna pop in with a helicopter and go blasting.
It can be pulled off well too. They TRY to make the player laugh, the entire point is to make the character saying it laugh, think of the same vain as Vaas.
That combo really doesn't sit well with me. Some anime also have this weird fetish with violence. I quite like violent media when done well! But goofy + intimate violence doesn't work for me at all.
4:46 I actually had to mute my game there. That song was beyond shite. I put on Metallica, put my head down and got through that atrocity of a mission.
HEAD UBISOFT DEV: Hey guys, for Far Cry 6, lets do something amazing - get Giancarlo Esposito! OTHER UBISOFT DEVS: OMFG THATS EPIC! WHAT ELSE NEW WILL WE DO? HEAD UBISOFT DEV: Nothing. Fuck em. Thats enough.
Really fair, objective review that can see the fun side of the game while not underselling it’s flaws. I was and still am excited to play Far Cry 6, Far Cry 4 was OK (I never got round to playing through) but this was the next Far Cry that got my attention, I didn’t think much to what I’d seen of Far Cry 5 and I heard from a mate Primal was pretty lacklustre despite the cool idea for a setting.
I played 5 and primal and found both ok only flaw's i think where 1 (primal) travel and the Villain's where in far too few scenes . 2 Far cry 5 has a take out system when reach certain resistance level you get taken out for a story mission the way they take you is unique what isint is the timing you know it will happen so you don't need to do anything
I waited till all the dlc came out for Far Cry 5 and the price drop to 10 bucks. I will be doing the same with this one. it was fun as hell using the dlc weapons in the main story
One day we just won't be able to tell Far Cry, Watchdogs or Assassin's Creed games apart. It'll just be one big blob of annoying characters in humungous maps doing inane busywork.
The mighty Jingles was right years ago when he started calling Ubisoft games ( I think he started doing it with FC5) “Far creed 5 wildlands” I mean all the games are just the same formula and it’s a good formula that works it just dosnt make for a memorable game
FC6 is a game about a brutal dictatorship where the residents are allowed to go outside and own guns. Australia is a place where you can't do either. Makes you think.
The amigo u r missing is actualy badass. It’s a ghost panther that is both stealth and combat. When it kills someone it takes their body to the shadow realm so others can’t discover the body.
Who else fondly remembers Far Cry 5 and New dawn? I know there not objectively the best out of the series but I really liked the story and extra fun level
"There's a Sniper Rifle with an explosive shot that works on a delayed fuse, you know, incase you wanna blow something up and you're not in a hurry" Damn that had me laughing out loud xD
I thought they struck gold with Blood Dragon. I don't understand why they didn't expand on the whole futuristic sci-fi setting into a full length game rather than rehashing the same old crap modernized crap.
There is a great joke I noticed that the character Bicho says he is from Mexico. Bicho means bug in Spanish but in Mexico, I dont know if everywhere but def in Mexico DF, Bicho is a slang word for Penis which I find really makes his character make some sense
The Electro Gun thing is an emp, it supposed to be good against helis, and ground vehicles. Rocket launchers and explosive ammo are much better though.
That Resolver weapon that you said was bad (which is called the Zeusito) is an EMP weapon. It's used to disable things like vehicles and turrets. It specifically says so in it's description! I haven't been following this game at all, nor have I played it, but I found that info out from spending 1 minute researching it and reading it's description in a screenshot.

The last Amigo (which you probably know by now) is Oluso, a big panther that absolutely destroys. You get it from a treasure hunt that unlocks probably the most broken weapon and supremo in the game.
@@andyhull9182 the only useful supremo? The one you get from the treasure hunt allows you to use the gun that came with it to shoot through walls. It’s literally miles ahead of the one you’re talking about.
@@mesadrums375 I used it once with the rifle and judged it not worth it. Just went back to crouch-walking with the movement speed enhancing pants and silenced deagle, every military target etc done in minutes, 1 bullet per target most of the time since the AI is so dumb, you can make a noise and usually the all the soldiers in the whole area will come to the place to investigate. Or just stand in middle of everyone, getting shot and pick soldiers off 1by1, works just as well.. Matter of preference really, I was so bored with the whole game at that point I just didn't care :D
There is a supremo that is made for stealth and is so op that you can take god on, you can get it after finding 3 artefacts via treasure hunts throughout the world and then placing them on a shrine. After that there will be a fight against these ghost panthers and then you will unlock clothing items that make you quieter, a gun (that can one hit enemies) , an amigo (who is a ghost panther/god?) that can literally vaporise enemies and a supremo which will make you quieter, and paired with the gun will allow you you shoot through walls while also showing you where all the enemies in the nearby are.
Ubisoft games just feel like an ai generated generic mess, they can never figure out how to just do something interesting or unique, with very little exceptions.
Just like call of duty, 2k, madden, pokemon, super mario, mario kart, smash bros, and the new spiderman game that's coming I cant believe I have to swing from building to building punching people it's crazy right?
Those random explosions out of nowhere that sets your car on fire has happened to me so many times. Even in the middle of the forest. It drives me nuts.
Thank you, I was sold on this game prior to watching this video. The fact they removed skills and made it stupid easy combat wise makes me feel like I may just skip this entry or wait until it's on sale.
@@thelonesomedrifter5884 yeah I'm actually pretty interested to see how saints row turns out. If I'm honest though I'm worried that dying light is going to be the same as this game in the fact they are going to add a couple new concepts but actually take it backwards if that makes sense. They've said they want to lean away from ranged combat so there isnt going to be guns basically. This is disappointing to me because by the end of dying light the first game your this bad ass with all forms of weaponry and a mfing rally ATV with flamethrowers. And over here they are like you can have a parachute and run on walls now lol
@@thelonesomedrifter5884 I know it's a silly thing to get hung up on but running around blasting zombies and the occasional raas' goon with my double barell shotty was one of my fave things about the game.
I said this in another comment section. Ubisoft is the Illumination Animation of video game studios. Not only are they both French studios, but they have a base line of quality, and they have made good things in the past, but the problem with their stuff is an infuriating sense of competent mediocrity, that some how makes boat loads of cash.
It sucks that they removed guns for hire. Having the npc drive you to your destination while you rode shotgun or on a turret in the back was awesome. I really didn't care for the amigos. Boom Boom is the best tho.
Ey mate, that’s not an M1 Garand. That’s either a M14 or a M1A1 which is the civilian version of a M14 (meaning it can’t go full auto. They look a bit similar, but a Garand doesn’t have a removable magazine. Which is why you load it from the top with clips, and they make that signature *PING* sound when you fire your last round.
same its overwhelming and not necessary when I first played cold war for example you basicly shoot name tags can't even see their heads with all that's above it but if there is a way to remove it than that's ok.
I dont know about SHOOTING CDs but you can throw them comically as a projectile weapon in Dead Rising, and it takes like 8 of them but itll kill a zombie in one pickup
21:07 I hope you've played Sunset Overdrive, there's a gun that shoots vinyl records in that game (if he has actually covered Sunset Overdrive please reply with the link)
How in the hell did he think the EMP rifle was a gauss rifle??? It literally tells you that it is an EMP gun meant for disabling enemy vehicles like tanks an crap making them easy targets for blowing up or hijacking. Man must've been running un uber auto pilot to misunderstand that.
great review, but 21:19 made me cringe so hard lmao. it's an emp gun and it's very helpful for disabling helicopters and tanks, since it's got a high ammo count, doesn't need to be charged to work and the ads makes it fire ranged projectiles. it's basically like a high ammo capacity rocket launcher that instead disables vehicles for some time. and yeah it can also be used on enemies to stun them for a long time which can be fun to mess with
Might be a dumb idea but give us Jason brody back in a urban town or something where some group messes with a friend or his family and causes him to revert back to rook island mode. I actually miss Jason brody cause he had an arc.

I hope the negative opinions about the game due to it being so similar to the others doesn't dissuade Giancarlo from starring in more games. The shortcomings of the game have nothing to do with his performance. Let's be honest, Ubisoft used him in an attempt to get away with making the same game again. Basically "Yeah, we know it's the same game you've been playing since 3, but it has Giancarlo in it. How can you hate that?"

I really wish they'd catch the hints and blend the elements back in that made Farcry 2 and 3 so good. FC2 was a lot more hardcore with its navigation, and vehicles were often a valuable resource in certain areas that could cause problems if you lost it- plus the exploration and open-world factor of FC2 was pretty good, they didn't hold your hand and you could progress the story at your own pace and your choices mattered somewhat- that being said, it was still flawed in some respects, but I will hold a special place for FC2.

If they could blend some of the (well done) hardcore aspects of FC2 with some of the progression system of FC3, that'd probably make for an above-decent Farcry game.
Regardless, it just seems like they're grasping at straws with how to spice up their game and are just throwing new stuff in without much thought to try and draw new people in. If they make an FC7, it's gonna have to be radically different in a lot of areas to hold my attention... the outposts system is so outdated and boring, it would be really cool if they would update this most of all as it's one of the more sorely boring parts of the FC series since FC3.
The story man. Political critique of two-party systems, the illusion of choice, ideological hypocrisy, selfless vs. selfish altruism, intellectual honesty and truthfulness behind moral nihilism. Far Cry 2 was made in times when corporate psychopaths weren't aware that their employees were trashing on them covertly via story telling. They hire dumb storywriters these days to keep people asleep, most people don't know how to interpret stories anyway.
A Far Cry: Blood Dragon sequel would be legendary
I honestly don't think they could make another one.
@@koroplays3200 Blood dragon was a DLC and honestly, it played through it's strengths. But I think a lot of iconic references were already used up in the first
We can't expect God to do all the work Naaah, Blood Dragon is one of a kind. Don't ruin it with a sequel. Just make fun of a different era or something.
....So what? Far Cry: Obsidian Sands? Instead of dragons, its a dune ripoff with some mummy curses, filled with truck sized cybernetic scorpions and pyramids that makes obligatory sky beam that must be stopped. And some prince of persia references to generate hype.
@@Disissid19 nah... Still got the movies Megaforce, Metal Storm: The Destruction of Jared Syn and The Wraith to exploit.
The series has to get serious real serious , this weird and comical route has to stop .
looking at ubis other upcoming games I really doubt it will. such shitty comedy and just being as obnoxious as possible trying to appeal to gen z. they are so out of touch its crazy
I wish we got something like Far Cry 2. It has that real oppressive and grinding atmosphere. No fun allowed, but in a good way.

Remember Vass's death?
For anyone watching this video 10 months later I recommend you play 100% stealth and treat it like as soon as you are spotted you die.
It helps bring a ton of challenge and by the end it’s super fun like when I took down the two boats with nothing but a bow and arrow and some throwing knives.
I played Far Cry 5's new game Plus Infamous Difficulty.
And I completed 3/4 of the game (Jacob>Faith>And then alittle of John) without the Detection Meter.
The game essentially became Arma 3's base game single player. And if I wasnt maintaining 100% stealth. Or met them with OVEREHELMING AND ALL ENCOMPASSING Violence. I would get shredded in 3 shots (all guns are Automatic MGs.)
Then I realized that the "Reward" was an Outfit the Shitty Launcher gave me at the start. ("Rook" outfit) that now is Devalued because EVERYONE else has it.
I reccomend this. But please just play with the Detection Meter.
Yeah, but that takes the fun out of it. What I love is having the option of stealth or loud and proud, in 6 it really feels like stealth is just forced, and though it's challenging, it gets long and boring. Sometimes you just wanna pop in with a helicopter and go blasting.
Games devs playing it safe once again.
Censoring is becoming more and more problem.
Publishers and investors rub their nipples to safety
Lets be honest, if they did take risk with the series the gaming community would just complain and say " it's not like farcry anymore" and dismiss it.
@@mrwillard95 it would depend on how they execute it. People enjoyed Blood Dragon and it was a risk.
Goofiness and hardcore torture. That classic sociopathic Far Cry formula. It's almost as if Ubisoft is run by truly awful human beings.
It's absurd.
"It's almost as if Ubisoft is run by truly awful human beings."
Well that's one way to describe the French.
They are French
It can be pulled off well too.
They TRY to make the player laugh, the entire point is to make the character saying it laugh, think of the same vain as Vaas.
That combo really doesn't sit well with me. Some anime also have this weird fetish with violence.
I quite like violent media when done well! But goofy + intimate violence doesn't work for me at all.
(10:28) Firing the RPG at the big oil tank reminded me of a level from BLACK. It's on Game Pass, I'd recommend playing it instead lol.

Everyone ready for the Far Cry 6 Spinoff game that's about to come out in a year or less?
Really fair, objective review that can see the fun side of the game while not underselling it’s flaws. I was and still am excited to play Far Cry 6, Far Cry 4 was OK (I never got round to playing through) but this was the next Far Cry that got my attention, I didn’t think much to what I’d seen of Far Cry 5 and I heard from a mate Primal was pretty lacklustre despite the cool idea for a setting.
I played 5 and primal and found both ok only flaw's i think where 1 (primal) travel and the Villain's where in far too few scenes . 2 Far cry 5 has a take out system when reach certain resistance level you get taken out for a story mission the way they take you is unique what isint is the timing you know it will happen so you don't need to do anything
I waited till all the dlc came out for Far Cry 5 and the price drop to 10 bucks. I will be doing the same with this one. it was fun as hell using the dlc weapons in the main story
The Electreric refle thing is for vehicles a way to stop them and get in them without blowing them up

FC6 is a game about a brutal dictatorship where the residents are allowed to go outside and own guns.
Australia is a place where you can't do either.
Makes you think.
Government protecting its citizenry through common sense laws and health mandates during a pandemic? Yeah, what a horrible dictatorship.
The amigo u r missing is actualy badass. It’s a ghost panther that is both stealth and combat. When it kills someone it takes their body to the shadow realm so others can’t discover the body.
"now onto the bad stuff"
Wait, that was the good parts?
Who else fondly remembers Far Cry 5 and New dawn? I know there not objectively the best out of the series but I really liked the story and extra fun level
Can't wait to pick this up for 12 bucks in a year!
"There's a Sniper Rifle with an explosive shot that works on a delayed fuse, you know, incase you wanna blow something up and you're not in a hurry" Damn that had me laughing out loud xD

That sir is an m14. It has a magazine meaning it’s not an m1 grand.
I thought they struck gold with Blood Dragon. I don't understand why they didn't expand on the whole futuristic sci-fi setting into a full length game rather than rehashing the same old crap modernized crap.

"It doesn't make any sense."

Been keeping up your videos since Prey (2006) reviews, congratulations on the 500K! :D
The Electro Gun thing is an emp, it supposed to be good against helis, and ground vehicles. Rocket launchers and explosive ammo are much better though.
Maybe EMPs are useful for hijacking vehicles, so atleast it has its purpose.
Spot on review. You took the words out of my mouth.
That Resolver weapon that you said was bad (which is called the Zeusito) is an EMP weapon. It's used to disable things like vehicles and turrets. It specifically says so in it's description!
I haven't been following this game at all, nor have I played it, but I found that info out from spending 1 minute researching it and reading it's description in a screenshot.

I know it's super pedantic, but that's not an M1 Garand at 19:34, that's an M14 or M21. Probably the M14.
The last Amigo (which you probably know by now) is Oluso, a big panther that absolutely destroys. You get it from a treasure hunt that unlocks probably the most broken weapon and supremo in the game.
Was just as useless as the rest of the amigos, just ruins stealth and catches fire when using the jump-supremo (which is the only usefull one)
@@andyhull9182 the only useful supremo? The one you get from the treasure hunt allows you to use the gun that came with it to shoot through walls. It’s literally miles ahead of the one you’re talking about.
@@mesadrums375 I used it once with the rifle and judged it not worth it. Just went back to crouch-walking with the movement speed enhancing pants and silenced deagle, every military target etc done in minutes, 1 bullet per target most of the time since the AI is so dumb, you can make a noise and usually the all the soldiers in the whole area will come to the place to investigate.
Or just stand in middle of everyone, getting shot and pick soldiers off 1by1, works just as well..
Matter of preference really, I was so bored with the whole game at that point I just didn't care :D
There is a supremo that is made for stealth and is so op that you can take god on, you can get it after finding 3 artefacts via treasure hunts throughout the world and then placing them on a shrine. After that there will be a fight against these ghost panthers and then you will unlock clothing items that make you quieter, a gun (that can one hit enemies) , an amigo (who is a ghost panther/god?) that can literally vaporise enemies and a supremo which will make you quieter, and paired with the gun will allow you you shoot through walls while also showing you where all the enemies in the nearby are.
Ubisoft games just feel like an ai generated generic mess, they can never figure out how to just do something interesting or unique, with very little exceptions.
That's a great way to put it! Just wish Ubisoft had the balls to make a game and not another reshuffled version of something from 9 years ago.
If it walks like a Ubisoft game and quacks like a Ubisoft game it's probably repetitive and shit.

The fact they removed skills and made it stupid easy combat wise makes me feel like I may just skip this entry or wait until it's on sale.
I'm waiting for a sale, the only games I'm actually excited for is Dying Light 2 and the new Saints Row.
@@thelonesomedrifter5884 yeah I'm actually pretty interested to see how saints row turns out.
If I'm honest though I'm worried that dying light is going to be the same as this game in the fact they are going to add a couple new concepts but actually take it backwards if that makes sense. They've said they want to lean away from ranged combat so there isnt going to be guns basically. This is disappointing to me because by the end of dying light the first game your this bad ass with all forms of weaponry and a mfing rally ATV with flamethrowers. And over here they are like you can have a parachute and run on walls now lol

I said this in another comment section. Ubisoft is the Illumination Animation of video game studios. Not only are they both French studios, but they have a base line of quality, and they have made good things in the past, but the problem with their stuff is an infuriating sense of competent mediocrity, that some how makes boat loads of cash.
Seeing this makes me appreciate MGSV more
The clothes feel like Real, its like having a good gaming Headset or chair that make you a pro gamer
That Tourettes Guy reference at the beginning of the video sent my sides into orbit.
It sucks that they removed guns for hire. Having the npc drive you to your destination while you rode shotgun or on a turret in the back was awesome. I really didn't care for the amigos. Boom Boom is the best tho.
Ey mate, that’s not an M1 Garand. That’s either a M14 or a M1A1 which is the civilian version of a M14 (meaning it can’t go full auto. They look a bit similar, but a Garand doesn’t have a removable magazine. Which is why you load it from the top with clips, and they make that signature *PING* sound when you fire your last round.
Gman always manages to wedge a few simpsons references in each video.
you deserve all of the dollarydoos for your hard work. ♥️
Call me biased but whenever I see health bars above the enemy's heads in a first person shooter I lose all interest.
same its overwhelming and not necessary when I first played cold war for example you basicly shoot name tags can't even see their heads with all that's above it but if there is a way to remove it than that's ok.
I dont know about SHOOTING CDs but you can throw them comically as a projectile weapon in Dead Rising, and it takes like 8 of them but itll kill a zombie in one pickup

Oh, another Far Cry game with a "burn the drug field" mission. Only this time the drug... Cures cancer?
I think "just another Far Cry game" sums this experience up quite well.
How in the hell did he think the EMP rifle was a gauss rifle??? It literally tells you that it is an EMP gun meant for disabling enemy vehicles like tanks an crap making them easy targets for blowing up or hijacking. Man must've been running un uber auto pilot to misunderstand that.
great review, but 21:19 made me cringe so hard lmao. it's an emp gun and it's very helpful for disabling helicopters and tanks, since it's got a high ammo count, doesn't need to be charged to work and the ads makes it fire ranged projectiles. it's basically like a high ammo capacity rocket launcher that instead disables vehicles for some time. and yeah it can also be used on enemies to stun them for a long time which can be fun to mess with
I completely forgot this game even came out. I was going to get it until remember “Oh yeah, it’s Far Cry. It hasn’t been good in a decade.l
