    Far Cry 6 is some of the most fun I’ve had with this series in nearly a decade. Its cast delivers strong performances across an enjoyable story, even if it’s also a fairly predictable one that doesn’t always land the bigger swings it tries to take. And despite some faltering new inventory mechanics and a handful of bizarre design choices, its creative weaponry means taking down an outpost, ransacking a convoy, or even just taking a ride with a buddy has never felt better.

    A lot of people will shy away from Far Cry 6, dismissing it as “yet another open world game by Ubisoft”, but I won’t try to hide it, I had way more fun with this game than I could have ever imagined. I got it for the idea of raising hell on a Caribbean island with a tank and a jetpack, and stayed for the surprisingly well-written story and likable characters. Okay, and also for the aforementioned chaos you can cause with so much ease, all while listening to some delightfully happy reggaeton that doesn’t fit at all with the game’s level of violence, yet would make Far Cry 6 a lot more boring if those songs weren’t included in it.

    A revolution led my immoral and clueless kids.

    Oh, man. This game really pissed me off. Not from the gameplay. But from its characters and story. So, before I rant on how stupidly bad the flaws are with the game, let's talk about the positives. If you have enjoyed playing any of the previous Far Cry games, then it's a no brainer that you would enjoy the combat and gameplay loop of Far Cry. Go to important locations such as military bases, checkpoints, Anti-Aircraft camps etc etc...destroy them, liberate them and gain resources and checkpoints. The usual. The changes are the additions of Supremo and Resolver weapons. Resolver Weapons are crafted through the use of Uranium found in Anti-Aircraft camps. These weapons are stronger than the usual weapons you can come up with but most of them fall flat during the end-game. They have some gimmick to them. One of them is literally a fireworks launcher and another one acts like a charged railgun. Supremo are your "get-out-of-jail" weapons. One can shoot out poison or flames in a 360 degrees radius and another can shoot out a disabling electro field radius which disables cars and tanks. You get the point. It's all fun and quirky and it adds some spice to the gameplay. You also have companions which can aid you in your quests. Some of these companions have advantages and disadvantages but I didn't really care for much of them. I tend to just position them outside any bases I want to infiltrate and just do my thing without any of their help. Another good change I see is the "nerf" of silence weapons. Back then, if you got yourself a silenced sniper rifle, you are good to go. Just pop headshots here and there and no one will know where you are. Now, they "nerfed" it. Silencers heat up the more you use it. But why the quotations ? It's "nerfed" but you can still beat the game with ease using silenced weapons. Its just that you need proper elevation and a good spot to pick your shots. Alright. Now for the bad. Oh man, Far Cry 6 is written for zoomers. The people your character has to work with are degenerate and clueless morons. The more I have to help them, the more I despise them. There are two groups you work with. La Libertad and La Moral. And they are filled to the brim with morons. Let's talk about the NPC that I hate the most, Yelena Morales. She starts by preparing a speech. I was like "Ok, maybe this scene will make me have some connection to this group and make me wanna side with them." NOPE. WRONG! She starts by saying " We are young! We should be skipping school, drinking and fucking! But instead we are fighting!" You mean to tell me, that I'm fighting for a couple of degenerates? You all deserve Castillo's boot on your necks! There was another scene where she barges in holding a rifle and while observing the surroundings, she accidentally knocked over some stuff off the table and she was like "Oopsie!!". You mean to tell me that the leader of one of the factions has never held or used a gun and not even have area-awareness!? There was a scene where Anton Castillo asked one of the guerilla leaders (Was it Yelena or Clara? Forgot, Who knows don't care" ) on what will happen to Yara (the Island) when they kill him. What will Yara gain on his death and what future will hold for its people. Guess what? She couldn't even give a answer to it. These guerrilla leaders have no clue or idea on how to run a country yet they want to kill its current leader? SMFH!!! Oh and another thing. After killing an important enemy, what do they do? They party! They dance, eat and fuck on some secluded island. BRO! WHAT THE FUCK!!! There where only three characters I find to be cool. First is the Castillos (father and son) and El Tigre. The rest can go burn in a fire. Dude, if I can side with the Castillos, it be done. I would put a bullet on each and everyone of these poorly written and cringy characters. If Ubisoft would make a DLC, where you can side with the Castillos and be their assassin to destroy these two guerilla factions, then I am all for it. Sadly, that will never happen. Is the game worth playing? Yes. It is fun. And has some changes to its gameplay that will make you sink a couple more hours to it. Just expect to hate the characters and storyline.

    Far Cry 6

    no way, this far cry is complete! (selama gue main series far cry ya). berangkat dari ekspektasi yang tipis karena seri sebelumnya sangat amat meh.. far cry 6 ngebawa gue kembali menikmati apa yang namanya surviving without stressing yg ada di far cry 5. ini seri game yg paling lama playtimenya dari semua game yang pernah gue mainkan. tapi, story nya gak bikin gue bosen, malah sangat menarik untuk terus ikutin sampai akhir. survival tuh kayak gini donggg! untuk seorang kayak gue yang males ngecraft senjata, grind nyari bahan material di pelosok hampir seluruh map, far cry 6 sangat bikin gue mudah mainnya. everything so smooth bro, i just dont want to end this actually. udah ngerasa feel yang sama kyk karakter2 di gamenya, apalagi pas ada beberapa karakter yang wafat ya... itu berasa si kek sedihnya. tapi, ada aja sih yang kurang, kyk ekspresi karakter pas lagi dialog tuh mimiknya kek flat bgt masihhh, khasnya far cry dah. orang lagi marah marah, masa mimiknya b aja... tapi udahlah ini complete utk far cry. oh ya, ada easter egg di post credit nya, yang bikin gue excited mau coba series sebelumnya yaitu far cry 3. damn.
