I've given up on Far Cry 6. The politics aren't great, but they're not even slightly the issue here, it's just so monotonous and all the characters are useless pieces of garbage who don't do anything and yet take all the glory. The "The players does all the cool stuff" angle is undermined entirely when you have a bunch of characters who literally just sit around waiting for you to do things and then they take all the credit.
Played a little bit of wandering village, which I immediately mastered with basically no resistance from the game. Just utterly crushed it. It's a good game if you're new to city builders and the aesthetics are cute. But it's also very clearly not done and half the buildings are pointless. Why would I ever want to steal the blood of my giant dinosaur friend when petting him is an option?
far cry 6 is such a slog. They ai is crazy in 5 and 6, either completely blind or can smell where you are even if you haven't shot a gun. Tried playing 6 again recently and I couldn't put up with it for more than an hour or two. far cry characters aren't necessarily good but they're at least memorable. 6s characters I immediately forgot who anyone was
What really gets me about the dumb AI is that it even extends to your companions. The punk rock rooster you get is basically pointless because it can't reliably target enemies, so it just stands around getting shot at by the AI. And it seems like they tried to fix common exploits by doing stuff like giving every NPC enemy an instant knock-you-on-your-ass-and-take-all-your-health melee attack that you can't do shit about and making it so that the enemies are weirdly bullet spongey unless you use the right type of ammo.
i forgot about the ammo switching, what a ballache
