10 More Out-Of-Place Scenes In Recent Video Games
7. The Cockfighting Minigame - Far Cry 6
One of the biggest complaints about Far Cry 6, beyond failing to re-energise the series' creaky formula, was its jumbled tone, which at a moment's notice switched from being a brutally violent, politically charged ripped-from-history tale to a wacky action-adventure exercise.
This was perhaps felt no better than with Ubisoft's decision to include a cockfighting mini-game, where players could take part in cockfights as staged like a Mortal Kombat-esque fighting game, with health bars and all.
This led to PETA petitioning Ubisoft to remove the mini-game from Far Cry 6 altogether, which they unsurprisingly chose not to do.
While cockfighting is certainly something that exists, treating it like a harmless joke by giving it its own satirical mini-game clashes harshly with any earnest attempt the game might make to seriously engage with Latin American culture.
