- Far Cry 4 is where the ubisoft formula peaked IMO, but it gets lost in the library of very similar games
- My personal pick is Far Cry 4. The outcomes are essentially the same, but which belief do you personally side with, Amita's or Sabal's, shape the lens in which you view Kyrat's liberation.
- Really liked Far Cry 4 and 5 in 2024
Cons
- The story and characters are just alright - you can tell they tried to have meaningful antagonists but when they only show up in a handful of scenes you can't make a real connection with them. That includes the main antagonist Pagan Min...
- most of them are copy-pasted from each other, which is why Far Cry 4, 5 and 6 don't appeal to me in the slighest.
- Far Cry 4 sure.
- finished Mouthwashing and Far Cry 4 over the weekend and now I'm jumping into 1000xResist!
- Just 100% Far Cry 4, took me 40 hours. Fun but super repetitive.

What redditors said (10 of 15)
The story and characters are just alright - you can tell they tried to have meaningful antagonists but when they only show up in a handful of scenes you can't make a real connection with them. That includes the main antagonist Pagan Min unfortunately. The supporting characters are also a bit too thin.

But every single bit of it just clicks for me mentally. ... The open world is the true star though, it's a creative playground where you get to make your own action scenes
