Far Cry 6

Far cry 3 I loved but the ones after it were basically just the same gameplay copy/pasted with slightly nicer visuals.

They really need to try something different to keep it fresh.

I kind of feel they should have waited to make it a next generation console exclusive so they have the hardware to move the game on as I think they've exhausted what's possible on current gen.

In my opinion, i thought Far Cry Primal was different.

Weird, today I was thinking to myself “wonder if Far Cry 6 is coming out” then there it is, lovely timing

One of the best IMO. In fact, I might just install it again for another run through come winter

. Preferred 4 than 3 a l little more but didn't enjoy 5 so much for some reason although new dawn was better I thought.

Looking forward to the next instalment. Wonder if it'll have raytracing and DLSS support on the PC......

I'm the opposite. I didn't like Primal much. Far Cry 3 and 4 where the best for me.

Isn't it still the game basic capture outposts, do missions and kill animals to level up your abilities as far cry 3 and 4 though?

Haven't played primal or far cry 5 admittedly but both appeared very similar in terms of gameplay other than their setting to 3/4?

Apart from Farcry 1 number 5 was the only one I really enjoyed and completed I will see how this plays out.

Yes, but climbing those prehistoric radio towers was great.

How does New dawn compare?

Its the UBI trademark. The Division 2 is pretty much the same, Far Cry, Watch Dogs, probably Assassin's Creed as well (haven't played much of that). Some changes here and there, a new map and they call it a "new" game.

Enjoy them all just wish they would create more variety in the minions that come at you or go one better and make each one unique.

Just give us more Blood Dragon, dammit.

Its a preemptive no from me, tired of Ubisoft game format, the opening segment/area is really good but then its copy and paste for all the other segments for another 40-50 hours

Beautiful & fun but the writing is super cringe.

For me it is up there with the best of the franchise, it added a bunch of new features which I hope are carried over into 6. I really enjoyed the expeditions and the changes to progression and crafting.

If so, I'm interested. I have my doubts though. One can only hope.

they seem obsessed with making bigger and bigger areas - i enjoyed far cry 5 for a while but then it got boring like the rest.
Same problem with assassins creed odyssey - started playing recently and uninstalled after 15 hours - too big and too repetitive.

Its not so much the size, as the content. Bigger is fine, provided that the content therein is good. Big for the sake of it and then the content lacking or being repeated is what makes it bad. Witcher 3 for instance is bigger than both Skyrim and GTA5, but you dont often hear people saying that Witcher 3 is too big. The key is big and filled rather than big and empty/repetitive.

yeah exactly - i loved witcher 3 and its probably my favourite game of all time but the two games i mentioned, they are huge but the content is just the same everywhere. I like them at first and then just get bored.
