One time i prank called a bear buildin workshop and said I wanted my mamaws ashes put in a teddy from where she loved them things so well... The woman on the phone did not skip a beat. She just said, "Brang her on down here. We've did it before."

Farcry 6 can't be worse than 5.... right?

FC6 is solidly good.

It knows it’s a video game. It winks about this directly to the player. “Blowing poo poo up is fun,” is the reason the old revolutionary gives the player character.

There’s quality of life improvements like reducing looting animations so youre not skinning animals or whatever. The plot doesn’t hinge on icky both sidesisms like 4’s path choices, it doesn’t force you down plot hallways like 5’s kidnapping sections. There’s no side-eye worthy colonialism like 3.

I am a modern FC apologist; I enjoy playing them, but 6 is the first one that I would say doesn’t have a bunch of easy poo poo to point at to say it sucks. It’s an open world shootyman, it is still One Of These, but it’s a fun one, without reservation.

e: i played the piss5 version i have no idea how it runs on the xbox or pc

I'm a big fan of Far Cry 5, it's my favorite one. I only played FC6 during a free weekend but it didn't convince me to buy it.

But I'll try again because I'm still a sucker for open-world shenanigans.

Boring open world ubi poo poo that doesn’t change the FC fomula with a crap plot. And no, having a talented actor as an antagonist or a dachshund companion in a wheelchair does not redeem this turd.

It's very Gen Z and all of the characters have so much personality that they beat you over the head with it.

The systems aren't even fun. I personally liked it less than 5.

I am the odd one out that really enjoyed Farcry 6. I got it when it was like $15 though so that helped, but I still enjoyed it, where I didn't like Farcry 5.

Just saw that Chained Echoes leaves gamepass December 15th. I got lucky that about 3 weeks ago I'd decided to finally try it and I'm towards the end now so I'll finish it just in time.

Hopefully at least, I'm at the part where Kylisn stole the grand grimoire and gave it back to Fredrick so hopefully I finish in time.

Honestly I believe that Far Cry 6 is the best game in the series. The problem is that most people have really burned out on Far Cry in general and it doesn't really do much new at all, just better.

Edit: There is that tekkenesque cock fighting mini game which was pretty cool, but it took too long to unlock all the characters.

This is probably why we are getting the Avatar game now, which just looks to be Farcry but based on Avatar, which honestly i'm fine with.

I like Avatar, seen both movies in theaters. I live in Florida so I have been to the Pandora section at DisneyWorld. They have poo poo loads of Avatar toys for kids. Do kids like Avatar? It makes a bajillion dollars at the box office but I hear almost no one talking about Avatar.

On paper I seem like the exact person to like an Avatar game but I just don't care enough to sink the hours into the game.

Jun 22, 2004

Yeah Avatar is one of those weird things where both movies did extremely well in theaters, but outside of that no one is talking about it, or doing anything with the I.P. really, not in the same way you would expect like say Marvel, or Star Wars. I thought the two films out so far were bad though, especially the sequel was just unwatchable, but at the same time it felt like I was watching a video game, so this ends up being perfect that we are getting a game adaptation next week.

It sucks because the studio that is making Avatar is Massive, who made the Division games. I would much rather have Division 3 than an Avatar game. Maybe after they are done they can go back to that. I'm almost willing to try it because Massive is pretty cool.

The way to enjoy Avatar is in IMAX 3D. It's so stunning it makes you forget about the completely average story. Also, a most excellent soundtrack, RIP James Horner.

But yeah, I wouldn't mind a Far Cry game with an Avatar skin (blue). It should at least be nice to explore the world.

The answer is, mate, because I want to do you slowly. There has to be a bit of sport in this for all of us. In the psychological battle stakes, we are stripped down and ready to go. I want to see those ashen-faced performances; I want more of them. I want to be encouraged. I want to see you squirm.
welp, my Rewards account has been suspended

guess it was good while it lasted, just wish i could cash out the precious 60,000 mindshare points i'd been saving up

edit; looks like a pretty big ban wave went out, so cash in your mindshare points if you've still got em
