Swag Cactus its a terrible ending both endings are bad actually because they all die in both endings except you the father and joseph actually resisting is the worst ending because the bad guy lives and all the good people die except your character
When I played this ending, it was dark and the sun was just coming over the horizon as we left. It gave much more emotional value, a feeling that after the long night, I could finally rest. Then he turned the radio on....
Adrian Yeah, tho it might have been more relief than forgiveness, since he knows just how terrifying of a fighter the deputy is, and was probably just not wanting to provoke a reaction.
I would’ve preferred an ending where we just kill him. After all Joseph committed a shitload of crimes which consist of: Murder Kidnapping Treason Possession Terrorism
Greetings. Have a nice day. Exactly facts I thought dat woulda been an option cuz in one scene da sheriff basically says arrest em o pop 2 caps in his brain (obviously paraphrasin) so I thought dat would be da ultimate decision
He knew what he was doing was wrong but did it to save everyone, if he brainwashed them he knew it would be easier to lead them all to the bunker. It Rook hadn’t killed his family they would have all kept people in line in their bunkers.
When you kill faith seed, she says ”if you resist against joseph he will be right” or something like that. That tells me, that if you pick walk away the nuke dont drop. Perhaps this was a good ending
But Joseph and his cult never had the nukes so why would it matter if you chose the Walk Away option? It wouldn't matter either way North Korea would have still nuked the state.
@@eskindermamo4178 Dude literally go on anyother video that shows the Ending scenes for Far Cry 5 and 80% of the people say it was another country's Nuke lmao
Rook practically was after committing murder and truly reckless acts. i think it’d turn anyone psychotic tbh. hell the way we kill Eli plays into this tbh we no longer know what we were doing and gave into natural instinct.
Rook have a lot of actions with Seed's family that are weird. He listenning John before die and Jacob call him to get close and the Rook did it. I think the most real action is when he rejects Faith.
@@themanmyth Well, just imagine you were never brainwashed by the song and you and your friends were just driving home while the sherrif turns the radio on. And imagine that the red screen was just you, who closed your eyes for a sleep. Boom, good ending.
The Sheriff told the Marshal at the very beginning that "not every problem can be solved with a bullet," as Joseph did here, and he also said to the Marshal "sometimes it's best to leave well enough alone", like he did in the end. That's coming full circle
3:59 is some amazing voice acting and motion capture. He’s exhausted, he’s super cautious, he knows what Joseph will do and he already has a plan in mind.
I'm kinda upset about one small thing. While doing resistance missions in Whitetail, I was buying guns when Only You pops onto the boom box. I just sat there listening, and NOTHING happened. And then this ending, you hear Only you and go berserk again? Tiny details man. Really disconnected me from the ending
I completely agree with this comment. As soon as you get affected by jacobs 'only you' sequence, it should have a permanent effect on you or at least do something, but clearly they just didn't think of hearing the song on the radio until the very end.
HustlerMitch in the time when Jacob kidnapped you and made kill everyone the song Only you was playing and that was your trigger switch to kill everyone in sight asap and when he turned the radio on the song only you started playing
What I love about the farcry franchise is that it's not always a happy ending like all these cliche games but rather an ending that just makes you sit there and wonder wtf just happened. It's a roller coaster of emotions and always hits you with the unexpected. The developers deserve a pat on the back for this.
I appreciate this game alot more since I've beaten it, the writers' point in the story is to get people to discuss and challenge your moral compass. It wasn't necessarily about politics, but about how things aren't as simple as it appears. With the hindsight of seeing all the endings I actually really like the story now.
I kinda wish it *was* more political though. It already uses alot of imagery, and sets itself in America during a pretty tumultuous time for it. Imagine if they did call out Trump by name, imagine if there was more schism from the cult (or townsfolk?) over minorities (which could've, you know, included actual native americans. there's only like 5 black people in that whole state). Imagine if Hurk Sr. screws you over because Jacob's fascist-ish talk about old glory and executing the weak vibed with him. There's potential.
As a kid my Dad played "Only you" the song used in the game he past away almost 12 years ago, I remember hearing it in the game for the 1st time and getting excited, its then used in a horror way and its chilling to me
When only you plays the rook looks at the sherrif and the sherriff says "rook?" This I think means that rook kills everyone in the truck and starts the apocalypse anyway. Jacob first does this to the rook with that music box and makes you kill your allies like Eli and others
Oh GOD, even the ending where the world doesn't somehow trigger the nuclear apocalypse has someone accidentally flip the song-based murderswitch on the hero? ;_; Aahh no! No, that's not okay! ...Then again, the nukes were probably going to fall about 5 minutes later anyways, so I guess the only thing it prevents is the deputies from making it to the bunker in this ending too. I'm fine with downer endings and all, but hot damn they did not hold back on the total and utter bleakness of the endings. I would so have loved to rub Joseph's bullshit in his face though. "Yeah, you were right about the collapse. But you were wrong about everything else. If it weren't for the kidnapping, the drugs, and then the flesh-ripping, the brainwashing, the brain-dead drug slaves and the multiple murders...None of your people would have died. Your bunkers would have remained unbreached and you'd have been able to ride out the collapse just fine. I'm just the bullet. You and your family are the ones that pulled the trigger."
rook was in the car with the three of them, even if she reached for a weapon they would all be able to stop her before she could do anything really bad. i'm just gonna pretend that neither of the endings are canon and rook saves all her friends and kills joseph... no bombs, my wife hudson is safe and sound
Personally I LOVE this ending...very nihilistic/absurdist. All that effort, only to end up making the choice you should have made right from the start. That's life. THIS is a realistic ending
My realistic ending is, "if the world's gonna burn, I don't think you deserve to be on the survivor's list Jacob, so you get a bullet between the eyes right now." :D
I’d say it’s the opposite of nihilistic, you seek forgiveness. You are done with killing. That’s why I picked walk away on my first time, because I was so bored of constantly shooting people without any real purpose other than to complete the game, that by the end it felt gratuitous and all I wanted was the game to be over, and weirdly it gave me a strange sense of peace to do it. So odd, I was bored playing this yet I loved all the character interactions and the idea of just walking away from it all.
What I love about this game is every person you meet except the villains actually have a backstory to them and explain how they started off in Montana and at one point everyone knew everyone so doing some quests for them and celebrating at the end of the missions was awesome it felt like you were part of a huge community taking down a sadistic psychopath family
It's not Joseph that triggers the nukes. The nukes are most likely from Russia or China, signalling the start of WW3. There is no reason the national emergency broadcast would activate if it was Joseph's doing, not to mention he would never get hold of a nuke, powerful as he is. In fact, regardless of which ending you choose it most likely ends in nuclear annihilation. In this ending you're just not around for long enough to find out. So in the end, The Father was right. Not that it makes any of his actions justified, or makes your resistance any less so.
Casper Kristensen well the national emergency broadcast didn't come on until well after the bombs fell and joseph could have bought the nukes from black market dealers, John was very very rich
John was Rich, But not "Buy a nuke from the black market rich". Not to mention nukes aren't sold on the black market. Irregardless, Ubisoft has confirmed that the ending is in fact WW3, to put a stop to all the fun behind speculating.
Casper Kristensen And that just brings up the question of how the Deputy walking away or resisting provokes or prevents a Fallout style Great War. I mean, unless we got a cutsene where some foreign bomber pilot was all like "...I'm suddenly inspired to not drop all these bombs as if by divine intervention!"
@@theupsidedowndog9939 Hope does not get nuked, the 7 seals affirm that. If the deputy walks away the 6th and 7th seal aren't opened, therefore the bombs do not drop.
"Your friends have been taken & tortured, and it's your fault... Countless lives have been killed, and it's YOUR FAULT... THE WORLD IS ON FIRE, AND IT'S. YOUR. FAULT... Was it worth it?... Was it?" I never felt the weight of my choices... The weight of my actions... Until he said that to me. My heart sank, and my throat tightened, and I knew that I had to just walk away this time... I finally realized that not every problem had to be solved with a bullet...
It’s not really your fault when he himself is the culprit. Who cares if Joseph was right, his methods are unjust. Resist is the heroic thing to do, fight against atrocity.
The Walk Away ending only makes it more obvious that Eden's Gate set off the nuke in the Resist ending. Why would whatever hostile nation waste a nuke on a place like Hope County? That we can know not arresting Joseph would result in no nuke makes the plot rather obvious.
The_ brokenbat27 but in the news they said there is like a war going on the outside. If its russia they could drop nukes on every state so its not krazy
What about the "Only you" sing playing, there's a few options there A: kills whole group B:gets self killed C: eventually settles down after struggling
No way in hell was I gonna go through all the trouble of fighting against him, my friends dying, and killing his entire family just so I walked away in the end. I picked the resist option. And I was surprised as fuck at my outcome.
Nick Rye was like the only guy who had some involvement to the main story. Edit: I mean like in terms of guns for hire. Characters like Jess or Grace don't have a damn thing for significance. I should probably go to sleep now.
If any of you were wondering why rooks face turns red its because only you was from that littile box wind up from jacob and so thats why rooks face went red and rook is not dead he just gonna pass out for a week unless he is actually dead so jacob was all behind this. Im sorry for any spoilers about jacob!
@@RosaRodriguez-gp3gn Dude, I recently finished it and this is the reason why i chose to walk away just to end it already because the sun was already on my windows.
I picked the Resist ending, it’s technically the true ending because it sets you up for Far Cry 6 while the walk away ending doesn’t set you up for anything.
After playing New Dawn, i think I'd rather have the walk away ending as the true ending. Besides, the Walk Away ending has a lot of potential story lines to be built. I don't want Far Cry to be the new Fallout.
Ok this is stretched but anyone play Spec Ops: The Line? This ending is pretty much like the line’s ending where Joseph Seed is Col. Konrad and the Rook is Cpt. Walker i.e. when Joseph says “I gave you the chance to walk away and you didn’t”
One of the most beautiful endings in video games. We realise that all the things we’ve been doing throughout the game, were all mistakes and sins, and the villain of the story is actually us.
not really? Like, we didn't burn randonm civlians to death for not joining our cult, nor did we hang bodies on the side of the roads? This game isn't deep.
@@mauzki-Well burning random civilains or random "peggies" alive or killing them in other brutal ways is really no different to each other... They are also just people and civilains, also actual good people just manipulated into serving extreme ideologies to be saved from the collapse. Im not really in for "the cult are good guys" but the player and a lot of players arent good neither and it is funny how a lot of violent fps players thinks they are the moral and good one in a game where you kill a lot of people and in various gruesome ways...
This is the ending I chose because I thought that resist would immediately result in The Sheriff, Hudson, & Pratt all getting executed gangland style. My logic being that 8-9 people with guns pointed at 3 kneeling people would be a pretty quick massacre... guess I should have known better than to use logic.
I don't know if this can be considered spoilers anymore, but here we go, well, is interesting how the story changes, with the endings, in the "good end" Joshep was "right" to be prepared for the future apocalypse, with his army, and knowing how things turned out in New Dawn... in the other side, in the BAD end, because no "Nuke" happened while they were leaving... it means, the nuclear war never happened, and Joseph ended as an evil man, using his religion and stuffs to make an army and dominate the region...as usual... I liked that.
The horror with only you is that it's the same song Jacob uses on the Deputy to mind control him into killing the WhiteTail militia. So when you belive you walk away with the three others the song plays again blurring the Deputy's vision. This could be interpreted again as you kill the 3 people you tried to save leaving you alone in the game ending.
Even after all Rook had done to his family and his flock. Joseph stared straight into him and found it in himself to forgive Rook despite how hateful he was and let him and his friends leave. That's why Joseph is still and likely always will be my favourite Farcry 'villain'. To show such mercy to such a dark and hate-filled person.
That's why I always choose this ending. It's more of a "neutral" ending I think. Nobody wins and it makes the player think about what happened going forward. Joseph lost his family and a big chunk of his army, but he has all of your friends under his control. Did the Sheriff and his deputies return there and defeat Joseph and saved their friends? Did they never return there and Joseph still has control over their friends? Makes you think.
i did the resist ending and i dont have regrets. In the dlc or an update they could make it if you chose resist there will be a mission where you break out of the cuffs by dutch because he is not really dead then you kill the father. For the walk away ending they should make it so you serve for the father then you arrest him. This is just a theory.
According to the wikipedia, if you choose the 'Walk Away' ending, when Whitehorse turns on the radio, it brainwashes the player, hence why he asks the player 'What's wrong?'. It's not seen or confirmed, but it's very possible and implied that the brainwashed player kills Whitehorse, Hudson, and Pratt off-screen once it cuts to black. If this is true, then Whitehorse, Hudson, and Pratt will die, regardless of the player's decision.
Great game , took me some time to beat it cause I took the time to explore the map and I like all the guns for hire ..........I just feel there's something missing in the game , this is just an idea like if you clear a outpost from the cult I wish what ever areas you didn't clear the cult would send some of there followers to try to take back a outpost that you took from them and you can somehow upgrade the militia weapons that guards the outpost you took and if you want to go there as backup you can choose to do that if you want too and if you take over 1 whole side of the region or area your your militia will come over to help out a outpost that's being attacked while your doing a diff mission
You know what will make this better? At the end when the sheriff turn on the radio it goes; "Cuss you had a bad day! *Nukes go off* " best ending evar.
Did anyone realize that Joseph was still going to drop the bomb whether you left or chose to resist. He only gave you the option to leave to get to safety
I don’t think he did if you walked away, because when you kill Faith, she says “If you resist, the Father will be right.” So that probably means that if the deputy walked away, Joseph didn’t drop the bomb. Feel free to correct me and please show evidence because I want to know it as well, that’s just my theory as to what happened.
@@johnnyphillips3355 because of new dawn. Either way he’s going to drop the bombs, because after you realize you killed your friends you’d likely go back and resist. That’s just human nature. And New dawn is a canon sequel to Far Cry 5
I love this game and as much as I enjoyed every minute, the best ending is probably the "not play the game in the first place" ...like most Far Cry games, which I love, and Spec Ops, which I hated with a burning passion.
Question: why do I get to play the final story mission again after getting this ending if I press continue meanwhile if I get the good ending it just let’s you continue doing side missions with the Father being defeated?
Same here. When I hit continue it takes me back to the place where I have to met Joseph again. And this happens to me on new game +. I completed the game with the good ending. I played new game+ and when I complete the final mission and skip the credits and I press continue it takes me back to the final mission.
Let's be real, if we were Rook, at least 99% of us would walk away and say I've had enough of this and spend the next year in therapy to try and forget this ever happened
Is it confirmed that there are no nukes in this ending? Cause my theory is that the fight that took place in resist ending took some time and that's why we see the nukes. But in the walk away ending since there is no fight, there is not enough time until the last cutscene to see the nukes.
If you pick resist you can do new game plus, where you start over but with all your perks, guns, money, unlocked cats but no guns for hire, resistance points etc
Joseph clearly implemented a brainwashing sleeper cell of a sort into the deputy so that when a certain song played (in the vehicle they knew they would flee in) the deputy would instantly have an aneurysm or some shit. Sounds like a non canon alternate ending hence Deputy’s survival in New Dawn.
Joseph Seed knew that The Rookie was conditioned by Jacob to be capable if killing pretty much everybody in the whole state when triggered by that song. The Rookie is basically Joseph Seed’s catalyst for the destruction of all that is against him.
I killed the father, and the world ended. But when u reload the game the city is back to normal? I didnt understand that ending, but i loved farcry 5 on the pc. But that was the ending i chose, i just came here to see the other ending.
I know, I like how it went. Right as he played the music I knew they were dead the other ending you drive from the bomb which is cool but then your trapped with Joseph. With the other ending, rook isn’t trapped and prob goes to kill Joseph
Logan Thomassen Pfftt... fuck those people in the car. They just get in the way (wouldn't have needed saving if they were half competent in the first place lul) - good ending in my book.
This isnt exactly a bad ending, its up to your imagination. Just imagine Pratt jumped over the seat and shut the radio off. Boom, great ending.
Swag Cactus lol😂
Swag Cactus Wait, isn't Pratt still brainwashed? We never saw him go through a "detox" or anything, so wouldn't he also trigger at the song?
Swag Cactus its a terrible ending both endings are bad actually because they all die in both endings except you the father and joseph actually resisting is the worst ending because the bad guy lives and all the good people die except your character
Zach Antes yeah
I imagine they all restrained me(the junior deputy). I also believe Joe set the nuke.
The acting by the sheriff the entire game is honestly super fucking good
Andrew ikr I agree 100%
Yeah I loved the sherrif since the first church scene, awesome voice actor!
If anything Deputy Hudson is soo fuckin annoying and idgaf about.
I know I have this game for ps4
All the acting in this game was pretty top notch! Really helps you buy into the characters as real people.
When I played this ending, it was dark and the sun was just coming over the horizon as we left. It gave much more emotional value, a feeling that after the long night, I could finally rest. Then he turned the radio on....
All you have too do is drive the gaddamn truck sheriff!
omegito wolf I what you did there
Evil Gopher clock in the church at falls end was playing when John arrived there
I honestly think Joseph rigged the 4wd to play the song cause he knew you were underneath Jacobs drug
Same with me man I just finished it I chose to walk away and then I felt duped I literally felt like I got tricked
I'm not condoning Joseph's actions but it takes a big heart to be willing to forgive the man that murdered his entire family.
Adrian Yeah, tho it might have been more relief than forgiveness, since he knows just how terrifying of a fighter the deputy is, and was probably just not wanting to provoke a reaction.
Or just shows how little he cares about them. His a cult leader, and only truly cares about himself.

John was Rich, But not "Buy a nuke from the black market rich". Not to mention nukes aren't sold on the black market. Irregardless, Ubisoft has confirmed that the ending is in fact WW3, to put a stop to all the fun behind speculating.
Casper Kristensen I see Ubisoft confirmed it, sorry I didn't know, thanks for telling me tho
Casper Kristensen And that just brings up the question of how the Deputy walking away or resisting provokes or prevents a Fallout style Great War. I mean, unless we got a cutsene where some foreign bomber pilot was all like "...I'm suddenly inspired to not drop all these bombs as if by divine intervention!"
Mission Failed - We'll Get em Next Time
I almost prefer this ending over the other one. Kind of cool leaving it “open-ended” at the end.
Not really "open ended' long story short the song makes you go apeshit and kill everyone you can see and hope still gets nuked
@@theupsidedowndog9939 Hope does not get nuked, the 7 seals affirm that. If the deputy walks away the 6th and 7th seal aren't opened, therefore the bombs do not drop.
@@theupsidedowndog9939 The nukes don’t drop in this one
Both endings all seem like a canon ending that starts towards far cry new dawn, I like that and it makes you not regret your decision
This game was amazing
Randy60pro Gaming pretty small for a Far Cry.. Completed everything within 48 hours.
The endings are bad
yea me and my friend finished in in 3 days it’s too short .. and too easy to complete
Just...
Do not say any of Ubisoft's latest games are good. These and many other people might unlighten your day
turtleplayze you're supposed to do every side mission and take your time exploring. I just finished it tonight. Started release night.
"Your friends have been taken & tortured, and it's your fault...
Countless lives have been killed, and it's YOUR FAULT...
THE WORLD IS ON FIRE, AND IT'S. YOUR. FAULT...
Was it worth it?... Was it?"
I never felt the weight of my choices... The weight of my actions... Until he said that to me.
My heart sank, and my throat tightened, and I knew that I had to just walk away this time... I finally realized that not every problem had to be solved with a bullet...
It’s not really your fault when he himself is the culprit. Who cares if Joseph was right, his methods are unjust. Resist is the heroic thing to do, fight against atrocity.
@@Fanchen Remember. Sometimes it's best to just leave well enough alone...
The Walk Away ending only makes it more obvious that Eden's Gate set off the nuke in the Resist ending. Why would whatever hostile nation waste a nuke on a place like Hope County? That we can know not arresting Joseph would result in no nuke makes the plot rather obvious.
Sad that Joseph killed innocents, AND his own people to prove you "wrong".
He also had access to multiple missile silos. For all we know he could have had more.
The_ brokenbat27 but in the news they said there is like a war going on the outside. If its russia they could drop nukes on every state so its not krazy
bigBallaNO But why drop one in Hope County? There’s nothing but farmland and wilderness...
What about the "Only you" sing playing, there's a few options there
A: kills whole group
B:gets self killed
C: eventually settles down after struggling
No way in hell was I gonna go through all the trouble of fighting against him, my friends dying, and killing his entire family just so I walked away in the end. I picked the resist option. And I was surprised as fuck at my outcome.
You should've never been there in the first place, though.
The graphics, the story, the Joseph Seed, THE MUSIC THIS GAME IS THE GAME OF DECADE.
love the game, love the plot. love the endings.... only problem? not much screen time for a lot of the characters. Rick Nye's was cool though.
Dog God *nick rye

Nick Rye
Nick Rye was like the only guy who had some involvement to the main story.
Edit: I mean like in terms of guns for hire. Characters like Jess or Grace don't have a damn thing for significance. I should probably go to sleep now.
@@MisterJohnDoe grace you have that quest and thats it, over
So rook was brainwashed, jacob played us like a damn fiddle 🤣
No we were
wasn't really expecting it to affect an ending though ngl
Who tf is us stop saying us
The rook conditioned to only you
Only You plays on radio
Whitehorse: Why do I hear boss music?
Joseph’s voice actor was the best part of the game
So its sheriff's
Joseph actor, since its motion capture and its a real actor, dude nailed the whole game
If any of you were wondering why rooks face turns red its because only you was from that littile box wind up from jacob and so thats why rooks face went red and rook is not dead he just gonna pass out for a week unless he is actually dead so jacob was all behind this. Im sorry for any spoilers about jacob!
Obviously resist? What kind of ending is "walk away"?
It's the one I chose lol
penpenbrady I chose it because I ended up getting to the end at about 2:30 AM and i was tired as f*ck so I chose the shorter ending
@@RosaRodriguez-gp3gn Dude, I recently finished it and this is the reason why i chose to walk away just to end it already because the sun was already on my windows.
Resist leads to the world getting nuked
I chose it because he forgave us. After killing his family, he chose to set us free. I didn't want to ruin that opportunity
I picked the Resist ending, it’s technically the true ending because it sets you up for Far Cry 6 while the walk away ending doesn’t set you up for anything.
After playing New Dawn, i think I'd rather have the walk away ending as the true ending. Besides, the Walk Away ending has a lot of potential story lines to be built. I don't want Far Cry to be the new Fallout.
@@JeyVGaming Yeah true
@@JeyVGaming Well Farcry 6 is coming, unless it is set before 5 then it means walk away is canon.
Farcry 6 has nothing to do with 5
@@christianalexander579 yes it does lmao it’s literally the aftermath of 5 wtf?
3:59 Me telling my kids when were leaving DisneyLand
DaMn the song gave me PTSD, Legit when I heard it at the end my heart stopped for a second
i just went oh shit no no no no.....
I can't stand that song any ore bc this game
*PTSD looks at me*
Me: What's wrong
*Ik PTSD doesn't work like that but that's how I feel when it's triggered*
Ok this is stretched but anyone play Spec Ops: The Line? This ending is pretty much like the line’s ending where Joseph Seed is Col. Konrad and the Rook is Cpt. Walker i.e. when Joseph says “I gave you the chance to walk away and you didn’t”
One of the most beautiful endings in video games. We realise that all the things we’ve been doing throughout the game, were all mistakes and sins, and the villain of the story is actually us.
not really? Like, we didn't burn randonm civlians to death for not joining our cult, nor did we hang bodies on the side of the roads? This game isn't deep.
@@mauzki- Correct, both sides were cruel but the cult’s vision was right and a little cruelty is needed to guide everyone to the right path 😉
@@Shadow-Heaart that's a great attitude to have
@@Shadow-Heaartwas a lot more than a little
@@mauzki-Well burning random civilains or random "peggies" alive or killing them in other brutal ways is really no different to each other...
They are also just people and civilains, also actual good people just manipulated into serving extreme ideologies to be saved from the collapse.
Im not really in for "the cult are good guys" but the player and a lot of players arent good neither and it is funny how a lot of violent fps players thinks they are the moral and good one in a game where you kill a lot of people and in various gruesome ways...
These Ubisoft people took a page out of dying light book😂
Ha ha. I see what you did there.
I know, and it took me a while to realize that
Ministry sucks
Actually the ending that GRE weaponized the virus and ministry uses it to both destroy and infect the town damn dying light 2 is comin
did you even play the following?
That means he killed everyone in the car
WheresMyBuns yes
Hey buns! Funny seeing you here. It's wombat
except pratt
@@bigbosssmiling7135 pratt shot the radio
The only good thing is that they say there gonna go do a Davidian compound style raid, it’s only a shame we might not ever get more of this
I wouldn't really like to see Ruby Ridge 2
Every accusation from Joseph = pot and kettle, hypocritical.
This is the ending I chose because I thought that resist would immediately result in The Sheriff, Hudson, & Pratt all getting executed gangland style. My logic being that 8-9 people with guns pointed at 3 kneeling people would be a pretty quick massacre... guess I should have known better than to use logic.
I’m terrified from getting finished with the resist part
5 years later and… DAMN this ost is powerful
I don't know if this can be considered spoilers anymore, but here we go, well, is interesting how the story changes, with the endings, in the "good end" Joshep was "right" to be prepared for the future apocalypse, with his army, and knowing how things turned out in New Dawn... in the other side, in the BAD end, because no "Nuke" happened while they were leaving... it means, the nuclear war never happened, and Joseph ended as an evil man, using his religion and stuffs to make an army and dominate the region...as usual... I liked that.
The horror with only you is that it's the same song Jacob uses on the Deputy to mind control him into killing the WhiteTail militia. So when you belive you walk away with the three others the song plays again blurring the Deputy's vision. This could be interpreted again as you kill the 3 people you tried to save leaving you alone in the game ending.
Even after all Rook had done to his family and his flock. Joseph stared straight into him and found it in himself to forgive Rook despite how hateful he was and let him and his friends leave.
That's why Joseph is still and likely always will be my favourite Farcry 'villain'. To show such mercy to such a dark and hate-filled person.
I mean that's the Christian way
I aspire to one day be able to forgive as Joseph did.
That's why I always choose this ending. It's more of a "neutral" ending I think. Nobody wins and it makes the player think about what happened going forward. Joseph lost his family and a big chunk of his army, but he has all of your friends under his control. Did the Sheriff and his deputies return there and defeat Joseph and saved their friends? Did they never return there and Joseph still has control over their friends? Makes you think.
Kinda ballsy for a big studio like Ubisoft to make the villain win, no matter what you choose.
You leave me my swamp
i did the resist ending and i dont have regrets. In the dlc or an update they could make it if you chose resist there will be a mission where you break out of the cuffs by dutch because he is not really dead then you kill the father. For the walk away ending they should make it so you serve for the father then you arrest him. This is just a theory.
You would want to serve him as your own wish but he’s not that stupid you’ll drink that holy water (with cocain in it)
Sometimes it's just best to leave or left alone.
Darth Maul Leave well enough alone.*
According to the wikipedia, if you choose the 'Walk Away' ending, when Whitehorse turns on the radio, it brainwashes the player, hence why he asks the player 'What's wrong?'. It's not seen or confirmed, but it's very possible and implied that the brainwashed player kills Whitehorse, Hudson, and Pratt off-screen once it cuts to black.
If this is true, then Whitehorse, Hudson, and Pratt will die, regardless of the player's decision.
The lieutenant fights in this game were really cool and unique. Good game, not perfect. A lot of fun, despite some bugs
After playing this ending i would love to hear the rook saying "i'm sorry father" before he goes to show that he was already gone
Great game , took me some time to beat it cause I took the time to explore the map and I like all the guns for hire ..........I just feel there's something missing in the game , this is just an idea like if you clear a outpost from the cult I wish what ever areas you didn't clear the cult would send some of there followers to try to take back a outpost that you took from them and you can somehow upgrade the militia weapons that guards the outpost you took and if you want to go there as backup you can choose to do that if you want too and if you take over 1 whole side of the region or area your your militia will come over to help out a outpost that's being attacked while your doing a diff mission
Agreed it would pro long the game and give more of a chance to use all the weapons I. Story scenarios, also make you be more strategic
Sad,that copy righted ending😂😂
i still can’t get over the amazing graphics
You know what will make this better? At the end when the sheriff turn on the radio it goes; "Cuss you had a bad day! *Nukes go off* " best ending evar.
I JUST PLAYED THE WHOLE GAME FOR THIS ENDING AFTER GETTING THE BAD ENDING...
do you get an achievement if you pick this ending???
@@ThousandairesClub no
Did anyone realize that Joseph was still going to drop the bomb whether you left or chose to resist. He only gave you the option to leave to get to safety
I don’t think he did if you walked away, because when you kill Faith, she says “If you resist, the Father will be right.” So that probably means that if the deputy walked away, Joseph didn’t drop the bomb.
Feel free to correct me and please show evidence because I want to know it as well, that’s just my theory as to what happened.
@@johnnyphillips3355 because of new dawn. Either way he’s going to drop the bombs, because after you realize you killed your friends you’d likely go back and resist. That’s just human nature. And New dawn is a canon sequel to Far Cry 5
Joseph wasn’t the one that drop the bomb
He just saw it was going to happen
@@goldfish6657 his cult did wdym.
@@glennquagmire3678 wait what am I stupid wait I’m gonna google this
When I played this I had a connection with the characters
Secret SECRET ending: Clutch Nixon rides down from Mars on a bomb and dunks on Eden's Gate
So deputy gone brainwashed because of that radio even Jacob is dead
I love this game and as much as I enjoyed every minute, the best ending is probably the "not play the game in the first place"
...like most Far Cry games, which I love, and Spec Ops, which I hated with a burning passion.
walk away ending has a better soundtrack, plus you get a ticket to heaven
Wow Joseph’s actor really did awesome at the acting
Question: why do I get to play the final story mission again after getting this ending if I press continue meanwhile if I get the good ending it just let’s you continue doing side missions with the Father being defeated?
Even though they still die in the end, I think the other ending is better because at least you free your friends and they become themselves again.
I picked the Walk Away option but when I re-enter the game, it says I haven’t completed it. I’ve already done the ending twice.
Same here. When I hit continue it takes me back to the place where I have to met Joseph again. And this happens to me on new game +. I completed the game with the good ending. I played new game+ and when I complete the final mission and skip the credits and I press continue it takes me back to the final mission.
Choose resist should let you continue
I crapped myself when I realised what was playing on the radio
Farcry 5 is like Mass Effect 3's ending.
Yes but...no
Also he was right, about the end of the world, he saved probably many people
Let's be real, if we were Rook, at least 99% of us would walk away and say I've had enough of this and spend the next year in therapy to try and forget this ever happened
I like to believe it wasn't joseph who had this play, it just played. The song played of pure coincidence
Thanks for muting the best part
I definitely didn't want to hear it
Is it confirmed that there are no nukes in this ending? Cause my theory is that the fight that took place in resist ending took some time and that's why we see the nukes. But in the walk away ending since there is no fight, there is not enough time until the last cutscene to see the nukes.
garden is yet to be breached, wrath only comes after
What happend when you play the game after this ending. The game menú Is a wasteland?
In my opinion this is the canon ending as the nuke did not go off in Far Cry 6.
I know he was a murderer but being that he was right all along makes me want to stay with him
I'm just wondering how they would manage to drive out of Hope County considering Eden's Gate blew up all the tunnels.
I'm just trying to figure out which ending let's me continue playing
I don't think either do.
Both
Both led you play I think
If you pick resist you can do new game plus, where you start over but with all your perks, guns, money, unlocked cats but no guns for hire, resistance points etc
@@Tom-vs6pu does picking walk away not let you use new game +?
Joseph clearly implemented a brainwashing sleeper cell of a sort into the deputy so that when a certain song played (in the vehicle they knew they would flee in) the deputy would instantly have an aneurysm or some shit. Sounds like a non canon alternate ending hence Deputy’s survival in New Dawn.
the nukes wouldve dropped either way or there wouldnt have been a farcry new dawn
no its just that resist is canon
Joseph Seed knew that The Rookie was conditioned by Jacob to be capable if killing pretty much everybody in the whole state when triggered by that song. The Rookie is basically Joseph Seed’s catalyst for the destruction of all that is against him.
I chose walk away and it keeps giving me the credits I can't play wtf! I restarted the game already I'm raging

I killed the father, and the world ended. But when u reload the game the city is back to normal? I didnt understand that ending, but i loved farcry 5 on the pc. But that was the ending i chose, i just came here to see the other ending.
Walking away is a good ending
Logan Thomassen No, because you kill all of your friends
I know, I like how it went. Right as he played the music I knew they were dead the other ending you drive from the bomb which is cool but then your trapped with Joseph. With the other ending, rook isn’t trapped and prob goes to kill Joseph
Logan Thomassen I guess, but there is no good ending. Just endings that aren't as bad
Rigby yup it’s all bad 😂😂 except the first ending. Where you don’t cuff him. You just leave
Logan Thomassen Pfftt... fuck those people in the car. They just get in the way (wouldn't have needed saving if they were half competent in the first place lul) - good ending in my book.
I pressed on resist so i want to know how the other end is
Well that’s the ending I wish I picked.
Go play the game again
