The Downloadable Content. Good idea. But often the content appears only a few days after release. This raises the question whether the developers really couldn't implement it into the game. More annoying trends: Open World, Realism, Loveless Multiplayer-Modes and more.
If you’re new to this long-running franchise, we’ve got you covered.
2 and 3, pretty much the only ones i really enjoyed. 1 was amazing for the time but aged quite poorly. 4 has the elephant gun, all i can praise from any entry after 3 lol
Ummmm 3 than stop.
Okay maybe two as well. But yeah probably 3 and then move on.
Far Cry 2. People constantly rant about games now being too easy, holding your hand, having too many unnecessary RPG-lite leveling features, etc. People specifically complain about open world games being too focused on tons of collectibles and "checkmarks" that just waste time.
Far Cry 2 is an answer to all of those complaints. It was made by Ubisoft before they fell into all the traps discussed above (and before they started inserting towers into their games to defog the map). It has respawning enemies, weapons that degrade, and the collectible diamonds are very useful in the game (which you find in a similar way to the way you find shrines in BOTW with a radar system). The map you have is an in game item you pull out while playing, not a pause menu that is unnecessarily detailed. Also the enemy AI and physics are much better than later entries in the series.
It has a mixed reputation because people at the time said it was too hard, the weapon degradation was annoying, and then respawning enemies were annoying. FC2 came out in 2008, so this was before games like Dark Souls and BOTW had come out and made it cool to like these types of features.
GF365: "There are some games with extraordinary visuals that impress us to this day. Here are old games with outstanding graphics."
I always thought the first 3 Gears of War games looked great and still hold up for today.
Far Cry 2 was awesome. In addition to having demonstrably better physics and AI than later games in the series, it had a lot of design decisions that, criticized at the time, have since been praised in games like BOTW and Dark Souls.
It might not be super amazing by today's standard but I thought Mgs3 looked really good
The Far Cry series’ best game – not Far Cry 6 – just got more brutal and realistic thanks a mod than revamps and remakes the classic Ubisoft open-world FPS
Far Cry 2 where your guns never ever jammed until you got into a gunfight is their best? I disagree.
Far Cry 2 may certainly not be the most "fun" game in the series but from a narrative standpoint it definitely is the most interesting of the bunch. FC2 couldn't be further away from the pointless fragfests that the following episodes turned out to be.
Games are about fun so too much realism can kill the gameplay as well as the entertaining elements. I'm no well trained soldier I'm just a gamer. I want fun not getting killed by one single hit...
Yeah, that's why I like fantasy games
Open world is worth discussing, indeed. I'm really tired of running around searching for quests in order to complete a game. Worst thing is: most of the time I find myself doing the same thing over and over again :/ But I know a lot of people who really like open world games. It's a matter of taste.
I was sceptical about open world games until I played Assassin's Creed 2.
It manages to offer the benefits of a big, free world while still being immersive and capturing you in a great storyline. AC2 is open world done right.
Ehm, peeps. Can we NOT post articles that are in another language than English? Google translate makes this (and others) pretty much unreadable.
