blood dragon is the only good far cry, because it acknowledges trying to glue a stupid 'meaningful' plot to a first person shooter is almost always a bad idea

Also it has Michael beihn asking to stop the tutorials so he can go shoot people.

And leading a creature to a base to kill everyone is great fun.

Communism will help more white people than anyone else. Any equal measures unfairly provide less to minority populations just because there's less of them. Democracy is truly the tyranny of the mob.

The theme of entropy and the senselessness of the conflict are incredibly consistent throughout. But sure they nailed a over arching theme including in the game mechanics entirely by accident

there's no such thing as bad game mechanics, only bad literary analysis and an incomplete perspective. you could apply the same argument to bioshock infinite without changing a word to excuse that game's tedious and repetitive shooting

"hey it's really weird that the vox populi immediately turn into bad guys when you've been supporting them against the racist columbians. it's like the developers just wanted to palette shift the mobs you're shooting at halfway through to freshen things up because the shooting is so boring"

"well you see it's an alternate dimension, also this refers back to the theme of artificality - how can we be sure our dimension is authentic, let alone our politics? it's an artificial class structure propogated by the elites to play both sides, blah blah blah"

As somebody who played both far cry 2 felt like there was a very real dedication to misery and nihilism throughout, as opposed to how bioshock infinite felt like a lazy slapdash where they did stuff just b/c and handwaved it

Somebody got fired between far cry 2 and 3 who had some serious opinions about violence
