    Hey everyone - thanks to tuning in! Looks like TH-cam's algorithm has recommended one of my older projects for unknown reasons. Looking back, this video isn't quite as detailed as I would've liked - but I do plan on revisiting Far Cry in the future and creating an even more ambitious documentary in line with my more recent work. Here's hoping a new Far Cry gets announced at E3 2020! Where would you like to see the series go next?

      Far cry on next gen hardware would look incredible! It was impressive seeing what they could push out of farcry 5. I think it would be an interesting choice to go with a more urban environment for the new game, changing up the stealth and gameplay quite substantially, but still allowing lots of buildings and streets to explore. here's hoping Ubisoft will announce something for farcry (or a new splinter cell)

      My biggest gripe with 5 was the absence of the kukri/knife takedown system, my second biggest gripe with 5 was that the majority of the guns in the game were horrible and there was nothing we could do about it. 4 is just a better balance of the much more satisfying guns from 3 and the better movement mechanics and visuals of the later games.
      Also 4 had the recurve bow. I love the recurve bow. I get immense satisfaction from making a perfect long range chest shot with the recurve bow. I may or may not still hold several world records with the recurve bow.

      I'm playing for the third time far cry 4, it is my favorite far cry and I continue to find things that I didn't know. The graphichs holds on very well, and for me it looks better than far cry 5 and new dawn (exept the water). I hope to see a far cry with an engine similar to battlefront 2 or the new cod, with a tipe of villains similar to vass or min and WITH OUT LEVELS.

      I actually liked the radio towers it added a very fun little side excursion and you had incentive to get them as it would give you a free weapon with each one and the hunting animals to craft the various holsters and bags was a very well and interesting touch to the games that allowed the player to get a unique experience not usually associated with the one man army type games and farcry 5 went pretty much right back to that and doesn't have the same replay value as the past 3 and 4 entries because there aren't as many side quests and rare animals to hunt like there were in those two games I'd prefer to see them go back to the way 3 was with an insane antagonist and the rare animals and hunting to craft your equipment with that is what made those games unique and so much fun to play.

    Far Cry Primal was a great game to never make again. I never found it awkward to play but I agree it was difficult to relate to the characters. That's what made me like the story, it was a new take on the old formula. I found myself feeling like a caveman when I made a torch and immediately had to test what I could light on fire. It was undeniably simplistic, but it was pure fun to get into

    Primal is my favourite of the series. The world is amazing, so detailed and immersive. Gameplay - especially with right settings like Survivor mode + Expert difficulty - is one of the most exciting and challenging experience I've had. And I actually like the characters and the story. It is short yes, but unique and focuses on themes like friendship, unity and humanity.

    It's interesting to see the comments from people stating their favorite version and realizing that every version has people who consider it their favorite. That's unusual and a tribute to how good each installment actually was. While each one will have things that could have been improved (at least in the eyes of some people), there are no complete trash versions (except in the eyes of a few, I guess). I enjoyed FC1 but lost interest in the series for a few years. I really enjoyed Primal exactly because the setting was different. As you state in your video, you can only do so much with a tropical island. At this point, my favorite has been FC5, although I wasn't a big fan of the DLCs. I enjoyed New Dawn a lot, but it felt like it should have been FC5's DLC. I particularly enjoyed seeing some of the same characters 15 or so years after FC5 ended.

    im surprised you didnt like primal.
    personally its my favourite of the series behind 4 and by far the entry I spent most time on.
    learning the bow aim, taming and utilizing different animals for situations, the expanded possibilities of combat because of that companion system, the shift to melee weapons which each had different uses and mechanics. the same, hunting and gathering feel as 3 and 4, and the personal settlement to upgrade like 4 had.
    I get so jittery and excited just thinking about it, because of how well each mechanic worked together to keep me invested.
    by late game you had companions that were super strong and could ride to make everything easier instead of tedious and repetitive, which made getting 100% completion more enjoyable.
    i have such strong and profound memories of playing it.

  • @Spetsop

    Far Cry 1, 2, and 3 had different feel to the gameplay, as if the developers were trying new and/or different things. Also, the world scenery, ambiance, and special effects were also different in all 3 of them (even though the 1st and 3rd were set on tropical islands). I loved the 2nd one for the way you felt immersed into the African scenery, with the sound effects too, and attention to details. Overall I think the first 3 were the best because there was something different in terms of gameplay, visuals, and story lines.... The rest that followed felt pretty much the same each time aside from obviously different locations and story lines, but overall feel to them was pretty much the same (same ideas in crafting, weapon wheels, skill sets, etc.). I wish they could bring back the style of Far Fry 2 scenery and gameplay!

    That 'cel-shading approach' to Far Cry 3's shadows isn't intentional. It's something wrong with the ambient occlusion in the game, which causes all of the character models to have small shadows outlining them where they shouldn't be. If by 'cel-shading' you mean like Borderlands, well Borderlands isn't cel-shaded. It's just what's called a 'toon shader' that is applied to the game. This is almost always the first misception about cel-shading which gets addressed when learning about materials and shaders in game development - that Borderlands isn't cel-shaded. A better example of cel-shading would be the character models in Zelda: Breath of the Wild.

    More than a year after the launch of Far Cry 5...
    There are many important things that were in Far Cry 3 an 4 but they removed it in the fifth game, specially hunting, radio towers and interesting collectibles. 3 had caves and underwaters secrets, allowing the map to have Relics all over the it and interesting exploring for these. It also had hunting for materials and hunting quests for rare materials used to make better equipment. Far Cry 5 also doesn't have rideable animals like in 4. I still remember playing poker and other minigames in the last games.
    Those are the things that most intrigued me in the franchise but the fifth game removed them, and even that way it's still not a bad game.
    Far Cry 5 has really good new features like the allies you can fight along with, interesting differences between each area of the map and part of the game, interesting progression, new combat features and vehicles.
    Since Far Cry 3, I think, the franchise always has some kind of mythological or religious thing, that always turn out to be related to drugs for some reason.
    Even after so many changes the franchise is still super interesting and I still play it to this day.

I thought FC4 was great (except shangali). Next i purchased Blood Dragon, really neat, but short. Next FC5 and big time into Arcade, followed by New Dawn and last month picked up FC3. Can't wait until FC6! Never tried Primal, FC is a shooter game and it didnt fit the formula! Nice video.

    Primal is my favourite bar none. I just love it, the setting, design, the different languages and its so immersive. I also enjoyed the weapons a bit more because by the 4th game I grew tired of the same formula each game more or less offered so it came at a good point, I also think Primal was a better fit for the drugs/narcotics/psycadelics theme each itteration seems to have to have for no good reason. But my favourites are Far Cry: 2 and Far Cry: Primal and I suspect it has a lot to do with the immersive components and the way they play a bit different than the others. I also liked 3, 4 and of course 5, aswell as the original, not the biggest fan of Blood Dragon though I think its my least favourite despite having a great soundtrack.

Far cry 3 is most enjoyable for me all the knife takedowns the game itself is very fun to play. Far cry 5 has only good graphic and decent storyline. If they didnt remove the knifes and takedowns far cry 5 could easily be the best.

    My only problems with far cry 4 was the balance of power missions . No matter which one you pick the other person will find a way to make you feel bad about your choice . And the other is just the fact that I didn’t feel like the golden path were actually good guys but just another side of the problem.

    Far cry 3 was, IMO the best of the lot. The storyline, the characters, the soundtrack (lit) and everything in it... The character arc was spot on IMO cause Jason was someone, initially a normal player like all of us. He slowly learns the way of the jungle. Vaas and Hoyt were arguably one of the best villains in any video game (definition of insanity- Vaas). Say what you may, but I really loved clearing outposts, planning on the best way to do it in, stealthily... :-P (sic)

    That 'cel-shading approach' to Far Cry 3's shadows isn't intentional. It's something wrong with the ambient occlusion in the game, which causes all of the character models to have small shadows outlining them where they shouldn't be. If by 'cel-shading' you mean like Borderlands, well Borderlands isn't cel-shaded, because there is a continuous blend between colors and Gearbox themselves have mentioned twice that Borderlands is not cel-shaded. This is almost always the first misception about cel-shading which gets addressed when learning about materials and shaders in game development - that Borderlands isn't cel-shaded. A better example of cel-shading would be the character models in Zelda: Breath of the Wild or Wind Waker, as there is no continuous blend between the colors in the character models.

Chasing down convoys destroying them by riding an elephant and bashing into them. The amazing fast paced missions and the stealth of the game is just great adding to this the ability to choose between Amita and Sabal in the campaign
    plus the weapon variety. Is just awesome!
    And Ajay was a cool protagonist not like Jason that did everything to save his friends ,Ajay was amazing he liberated an entire country not just killed Pagan on the other hand Jason just saved some douchebags and killed two motherfuckers
