started far cry 5 last night

this game seems very cool indeed. coz it’s ubisoft i can’t help but compare it to assassins creed but it’s quite different, and normally i hate first person but i’m getting over it

but gently caress this game is hard 😳 i need silent weapons gently caress!!!

What you need is to save up your ingame cash and buy the AR-C Shark machinegun ASAP as it will give you a massive upgrade over the plink-guns you scavenge off the cultists. I used it all the way through the game and upgraded it with a mid-range optic and a silencer.

The AR-C regular version is locked until a good portion of the game has passed, but scavenging up a few thousand bucks from prepper stashes (which are fun to do themselves anyway) will let you get ahead of the game with the prestige AR-C.

iirc far cry 5 is incredibly liberal with what it will allow you to put a silencer on

max payne and other remedy games are decent ones. arguably the value of it in all their games is the mechanics benefit from a sort of flexible situational awareness

You can also add a lot more cool climbing, dodge and roll mechanics without making the player puke

and platforming in first person is a nightmare, the only game that sorta kinda made it work was Doom 2016

yeah that’s something, having your vision pulled around. like climbing or picking up a person in far cry 5 is difficult to watch. but getting used to it

I would love to see Blood on the Sand, the Scarface GTA-like and Army of Two get uploaded onto GOG, stuff that's just not possible to play easily these days.

Also the Microsoft 'Madness' games but I don't see them ever happening.

Seriouspost about fps: far cry should decide to be about good gunplay OR cool rpg elements. Guns are not great in third person, platforming etc not great in first person. 3rd person + hold button to look down sights of gun is an OK compromise, if a bit jarring

far cry’s 3P stuff is baked into the franchise and without it we would not have “pull shrapnel out of arms to restore health while drowning” therefore it is extremely good

far cry 2 had so much good poo poo like the different damage animations. not just pure quantity of animations, but by damage type. also better ai, better environmental destruction/effects, better everything other than maybe plot.

seeing fart cry 5 look pretty amazing but then you get up close and the bushes are sprites is just really lovely.

I bought death stranding because it was on sale at Best Buy and I like the little bit of the game I’ve played so far but holy gently caress Kojima let me play the drat game. in the first hour of game time, probably 55 minutes of it is cutscene and 5 minutes is you actually controlling it

You are absolutely going to hate the ending, then. The story itself holds up really nicely for the current times and the mechanics are simply amazing that all that poo poo was stuffed into controller gestures.
