Far Cry 6: 10 Reasons The Haters Are Wrong
1. The Fun Factor
Ubisoft often says that their games are not political, and while it would be very easy to read overtones about fascism, slavery, big pharma and rebellion into the game, our suggestion is to switch off that part of your brain and just enjoy the world that Ubisoft has given us, because it's a blast.
Like usual with Far Cry games, the side missions are almost endless - treasure hunts, searching for special weapons, big game hunts of ridiculous creatures, water and land races, dominos, cockfighting...
Ok, that last one is a bit controversial - still, the concept is fun and the collection of roosters you can get, including several based on famous fighting games, is pretty cool.
The point being, you can lose yourself for dozens of hours in a ton of great side missions.
As for the main storyline...
Want to attack a fort on a horse? Go for it. Have you always wondered what it would be like to fly a DeLorean-like car that starts as a dune buggy but can take to the skies? Find the Angelito FW Turbo, snap a pic of it with your phone (which is how you add vehicles to your inventory), and start hopping from base to base. Feel like taking your gold-toothed crocodile and wiping out a checkpoint? Do that.
Ubisoft has given us their biggest sandbox yet. Go out and play in it!
