32Far Cry 3 Lets play Walkthrough on PC Part 1 Secure the Outpost
Far Cry 3 is the latest addition to the series and the question is, is it really a Far Cry proper successor?
It's a challenging question to answer since the original Far Cry was made by Crytek who now focus on making Crysis series with their own Cry Engine that started it all. So engine wise, since Far Cry 2, the feeling is different from the original Far Cry in nearly all aspect thanks to the Dunia Engine that Ubisoft developped for the game. The only thing similar is the offer of putting you in a wild wide open world with amazing graphical experience and a fast paced action that isn't extremely realistic but entertaining none the less.
So as you may imagine this new Far Cry 3 is much closer to Far Cry 2 since it's using the same engine, but that being said, there is very little relation with FarCry 2 story and while Farcry 3 does keep a few gameplay element of FarCry 2 the feeling, the pace, the visual and the interaction with the world all feel different.
That raise the question what is Far Cry 3 about?
Well unlike The original Far Cry and Far Cry 2 your not a Mercenary or a soldier of any kind as you start. Your an innocent White American teenager with rich parent that are living the dream of traveling in a the Pacific island that end up being taken hostage with many of his family and friend after jumping in parachute on a island plagued by pirate, drug, mercenaries, many very weird characters and a war between local native people and the unwanted invaders. In clear you end up in a place that really deserve a far cry for help.
The Weird Main Story
After escaping from the Pirates cages and losing your brother, you are saved by an ex-marine that became part of the native resistance and have the bright idea to put a magical tattoo your arm without asking your opinion about it and as a result this Far Cry 3 Tattoo will grow by itself as you unlock special abilities providing an RPG element to this fps shooter game. So as you can notice right away, the game gets kinda wierd very early on and it gets from weird to very weird. You will meet up plenty of strange character including, a psychopath pirate leader, a drugged doctor that is constantly stone, a leader of the native people that drug you constantly, a questionable CIA agent, a creepy guy that follow you arround and is likely a pervert, a crazy undercover agent that fool people for being a german mercenary and so on. So in clear the story of Far Cry 3 is funny, well acted and extremely well executed with great psychedelic moment. It's really enjoyable for the first run at it no question about that.
Far Cry 3 an open World to Explore?
While the main story is a great fun Far Cry 3 open world has to offer many smaller scale experience that make the gameplay evolve into many smaller games that can result in facilitating your experience. So you can climb many radio tower to reveal map part with the content that you can loot around it. You can clear small Pirates and Mercenaries camp that then get claimed by the native and these will allow you to fast travel to a location and rearm yourself there. You can play poker, do many small side missions, some weapons challenge with high score shared with your friends. There are also many items to find around the huge map that will give you experience as a result as well as a limited story around the object that may interest a few peoples. There is also a wide variety of random event and encounter as you move around the map that can be entertaining in some occasion.
Are Side mission that important?
That being said you are under no obligation to play the side missions and if you actually finish the game story, there is very little interest in continuing to explore the world. The more enemy camp you clear, the less enemies you will find. The random items don't really provide much information worth searching for. The random encounter become quickly meaningless because of an AI that aim very badly and a stealth system that is over generous toward the player independently of the difficulty level. So in clear. Far Cry 3 offer an amazingly big environment, that doesn't provide much long terms entertainment once you getting out of the main story. Some people may compare it to a first person shooter skyrim experience but it's certainly doesn't have the dept or the story that skyrim provide around the main quest. This mean that other then the main story you will mostly have to create your own form of entertainment if you want to continue to play with the same character, because it's a game design in a way where, the more stuff you do, the less stuff there is to do or the more worthless the remaining stuff that you can do is.
