A trailer simply amazing and that will not leave anyone indifferent
There have been plenty of great villains in video games over the years. Now it's time for the VGU crew to name a few of their favorites.
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.
TheGamer Writes "Far Cry 3 is a time capsule of what game design was like in the early '00s"
Beat it twice; once on PS3, and once a couple of months ago on PS5.
Doesn't Far Cry 2 have some of the things they are talking about here? Diamond hunting, healing, malaria medication?
"Far Cry 3 is a time capsule of what game design was like in the early '00s"
>Came out in 2012
Okay then
If we are going to talk early 2000's game design how about start in the year 2000 with games that are a far cry better than something released 12 years later.
"Chrono Cross, Baldur's Gate II, Diablo II, Dragon Quest VII, Final Fantasy IX, The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask, and Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2, along with new intellectual properties such as Deus Ex, Jet Set Radio, Perfect Dark, The Sims and Vagrant Story."
The article names things Ubisoft has shoved into games to dumb them down and then claims we should rush off to play it. Maybe instead look back at it as the death of originality from Ubisoft and gaming in general.
Far Cry 3 & Assassin's Creed VI: Black Flag are 2 of the very best games from Ubisoft. All Ubisoft games since then are all just copying these 2 games.
Wow, okay i cannot wait for this game now.
Lets hope the game itself lives up to the hype of the trailer.
HD version plz ...
awesome graphics CG or real time ? dunno ...
Very nice, agreed tho...lets hope its as good as it looks
Straight up Chloe clone rip off. I would say almost a Drake rip off too if had there been any tresure hunting involved, but anyways, this is gonna be a next gen launch title, no doubt about it.
The trailer was decent, however it didn't achieve all of which I had initially hoped for:
(My comment yesterday regarding the upcoming trailer) "Despite initially wanting the trailer to be gameplay, Ubisoft did a great job of establishing the scenario and characteristics surrounding the villains of "Rainbow Six Patriots" with their VGA Trailer and with such an intriguing concept, Far Cry 3 could benefit from a CG Trailer, I hope it at least builds on the characteristics of the main character rather than just the villain, you felt nothing for the protagonist in Far Cry 2."
Whilst the trailer did a great job of highlighting the psychological state of the villain, it painted the protagonist and his girlfriend in a weak light, making them seem weak, both physically and mentally (Before magically the protagonist transforms in to a bad-ass), it also made the scenario seem somewhat like a low budget horror film (Taking a boat trip to an unmarked island? Really?). Finally, the dubstep, for me, was out of place and character for the franchise.
I would have preferred a gameplay trailer but that wasn't the case and whilst I don't consider the trailer to be to an equal quality to those of Rainbow Six Patriots, it was a good effort.
Nevertheless, I'll still be purchasing the game day one. Bring on the Map Editor announcement!
