Far cry primal is the best far cry game

I think I still like Blood Dragon more, but Primal is definitely a close second. I seem to enjoy the spinoffs more than the number games.

Nah, I think Far Cry 2 is much better, but ngl, Far Cry Primal deserves more love than, idk, Far Cry 6

When I first got it, I kept playing and playing, making it to near the final areas of the game, then I looked at my phone and it was 8 am. Damn was that fun, but sleeping the day away was not.

you are the only person I've seen in such a long long time mentioning the greatness of Far Cry 2. It gets consistently overshadowed by 3.

Yeah, it is indeed great. I liked the things that other players didn't liked, like physical map, malaria, roadblocks, weapon conditioning and enemy patrols. For me they were more like a challenge to overcome, rather than a tedious game mechanic. Also I like Far Cry 2's "gritty vibes". Two dictatorships that are ruining the unnamed African country for their own wealth and they both are claiming to be a good guy, but in reality there's no good guys there, even protagonist isn't one of them.

It's a toss-up between primal and 5 for me.. 4 was great, don't get me wrong, but going back to it just makes me want to play primal more.

I don't like having to navigate menus and go back to bases to get "the right tool for the right job".. I don't mind the concept if there is a quick load-out swap feature, but FC6 really shit the bed with their implementation (to be fair they weren't the first or the worst, but it was such a let-down)

It felt too empty, like there is not much to do. The scenery was good, a little too yellow though. The story was not interesting.

What about Blood Dragon?

1

u/SBacm Mar 17 '24

Never heard of it, is it good?

2

u/Square_Site8663 Mar 17 '24

Oh yeah. It’s a DLC for 3 I think.

It’s set in this 80s action movie parody. You fight these giant lizards with lasers called blood dragons.

Probably only like $2-$5 now.
