Looks interesting, but there's no way in gently caress I'm paying full price for this after being dumb enough to do it for 5. Even if critical reaction is somehow good, I'm waiting for a sale.

I just mean on principle I'm not paying the release price because I feel burned by the last one. If it's good, I can always play it later when it's on sale and when I'm not still so salty about the story in 5.

Edit: After actually watching the trailer, I still think it's interesting in the sense of doing something different, but it didn't do much to make me want to play it.

I'd gladly pay $40 for it if it's basically just a reskinned FC5 that's lets me actually have a chaos sandbox to play around in.

I'd do it for $20-30 probably. Since I paid full price for FC5 (on the promise it was all about murdering white supremacists) and was really let down, ya gotta balance the scales.

Sorry you're disappointed but as someone who appreciates both the cosy catastrophe trope and the diversity in bad guys which Far Cry has long shown, I'm excited and will give Ubisoft money for another part in this cool and fun series.

If they can keep the actually fun gameplay of 5 intact while making the story far less obnoxious I'm in.

But I sadly don't see that from this trailer. If anything the twins feel like they're going to be just as bad at boring monologuing.

Yeah definitely seems like a lot of monologue potential, Ubisoft couldn't even get through the trailer without one.

If it was some other series I wouldn’t mind so much, but like others have said, I do not have so much faith in the writers at this point to make it work, to put it lightly.

I agree but only if it keeps the ham of Mad Max. I want Road Warrior, but worry that Ubisoft wants The Road.

Oh it's gonna be cheap? Cool. I might actually get this, barring bad reviews, considering I skipped FC5 entirely, in large part because I am so tired with modern firearms. Was it ever explained why Nowhere, Montana got nuked?

So this is a thing and I considered it but it begs the question, why do all these preppers and the cult have their doomsday survival bunkers built near nuclear targets? Did they not consider that in their prepping? Also whatever is in hope county must be loving rad because it seems like five or ten nukes detonate while you are driving.

Hopefully they work around the writing this time by not trying to go for some pseudo-intellectual plot that just lands on it's face. FC5 should have been an easy game to write but god did they cock it up.

doesn't seem like that at all. its seems like the twins are basically Lord Humungus/neagan types and are taking over the area with there big rear end warband. the main characters is gonna be another customizationed new comer.

It has you fighting two black women violently claiming power from a peaceful community while an older Seed rants "IT'S WRONG IT'S ALL WRONG"

The writing is going to be extremely bad

I’m not sure how whiplashing from ‘sanitized death cult they agree with’ to ‘black women are coming to murder you white folks and take your eden away, best kill them savages’ is SAFE or sane in any way, but

Unless they plan to heel turn by having you join them against Seed but he’ll be cast as an unkillable ‘good’ bad guy again

Maybe the twins are Seed's children from the deputy he kept chained to a bed for 17 years.

It shows a peaceful mostly white community before two black women state “we only believe in power and we will either take your home or destroy it”
