In Far Cry 8 you are a photographer who jumps a fence to take a close photo of a waterfall but you slip because the rocks are very wet beyond the fence.

An upcoming Far Cry game is said to be about a small child whose parents let him ride his tricycle around the block but not into the alleyway towards the next street over. He rides his tricycle through the alleyway one day and then gets lost and has to find an adult to help him get home.

The gamer uprising against the painting of good American families as insane killers will lead to a second version of this game getting published where the crazy people are, I don't know, let's say one of the weird polygamous Mormon sects from southern Alberta.

far cry 2 was fun, i liked it.

far cry 3 was, okay, it wasn't very memorable or amazing or anything.

blood dragon was tons of fun, but maybe only once or twice, not like a game with a ton of replay value.

i like atmosphere and lots of dialogue, little sidequests are fun and conquering forts was always great.

I liked Undertale and Braid

Its almost as if the protagonist you play isn't a good guy. Like, that's the point. Its not some "Nathan drake is a mass murderer and that clashes with the plot" thing
The plot is that who YOU are is capable of whats bolded in your stuff. That IS the point.

Gamers are only capable of understanding subtext in games if it's repeatedly shoved in your face like in that Spec Ops game where loading screens eventually start calling you a bad person for still playing and the developer said in an interview that the only way to win the game is if you turn it off and never play it again.

Hasn't Far Cry been about fake locations? Why would they pick a real state, in a real country?

I mean, if they wanted to go that route I can't think of a better location that Libya, or Syria.

Have you heard of death of the author?

FYI it means when gamers send death threats to a game dev because the frame rate gets kind of fucky sometimes

nigga crab pollock posted:

death of the author is ultimately a lame postmodernist copout that lets ideologically minded jerkoffs separate their work from the context of the reality it was authored in and makes it vastly easier to sniff your own farts. it's not like its a bad concept, authorial intent is't always what a work ends up depicting, but its bred this acceptable attitude of ignorant agnosticism of the artist which usually ends up just being abused in fallacious arguments like this one where people jump up and say the dissonance between the story and gameplay is the whole point of the game when in actuality its just an artefact of the game trying to be six things at once and developed by a studio with a high turnover rate on a max time crunch attempting to re-bake the half cooked game concept that got dumpstered

Ok cool but did you see my joke about gamers sending death threats because that's why I made the post because caring about video games is stupid

Anyone who makes an argument that explicitly relies on death of the author, that is you must deliberately ignore known authorial/creative intent in order to make your case, you're a full of poo poo retard that's definitely a methane huffer. I'm glad I'm not alone in feeling this way.
