Far Cry 2 was a really interesting semi-dystopic setting. You we're a Merc in a fictional war in Central Africa, doing jobs for all the sides to earn blood diamonds. The world was too hostile though, everyone was trying to kill you eventually, even your merc buddies, and the damn checkpoints on the roads would respond so quickly so it felt like a slog to get anywhere. You also were infected with malaria and would start passing out in the middle of gun fights or die if you didn't keep finding medicine for it lmao. Those things made it more a more realistic setting than the other games but tbh it wasn't very much fun... kinda depressing even. This was before they figured out the outpost capture formula in FC3.
