Far Cry New Dawn Part 1. An utter train wreck. (Tough New Game Blind)
4Part Synopsis: In the aftermath of nuclear winter as predicted by Joseph Seed, the survivors were forced underground to survive. As narrated by a young woman named Carmina, she resurfaced with her family at age six. Establishing a small community, things were getting back on track. A ravage gang named The Highwaymen rose up, led by two twin sisters.
Hearing a train full of resistance members run by a man named Thomas Rush is passing through, Carmina is sent to plead their case. Things go haywire immediately as the cars get violently derailed, killing nearly all the passengers on board. Rush's captain escapes with the leader himself and another survivor called Garrett Barnes into the valley.
The three get cornered on a cliffside. Barnes is killed while Rush pushes the captain to safety in the water below. Carmina finds him, keeps the man alive. They fight through various Highwaymen posted on the riverside. Making it to their safe haven called Prosperity, they reconvene with other allies. Carmina's mother: Kim Rye, outlines the situation at hand. Cap now has to head out and start a movement to fight back.
Part Notes: Going into a new game without any knowledge of what to expect, it does take a bit to get a hang of the controls and how everything functions. Playing on Tough isn't too bad, in all honesty. At least I got to the homebase intact. After doing activities off-camera, I have a much better understanding of how to proceed.
Playthrough Information: This is a blind let's play. I started on Tough difficulty and don't intend to lower it, unless absolutely necessary. Given the gigantic nature of any open world title, I have to limit what's covered in each video, since filming everything will just drag out the series' length. Story missions will all be covered. Certain side quests will be shown as well, depending on the nature involving them. Non plot instances like Expeditions, Liberating Outposts, Treasure Hunts and General Exploration I feel are best left out. 100% completion of every collectible or any other findable item won't at all be a major focus. Gameplay shown on PS5 with a digital downloaded version of the PS4. All videos will include commentary and webcam usage.
About Game: Far Cry New Dawn is a 2019 first-person shooter game developed by Ubisoft Montreal and published by Ubisoft. It is a spin-off and sequel to Far Cry 5, and the twelfth overall installment in the Far Cry series. Set seventeen years after one of the endings of Far Cry 5 which saw the fictional Hope County, Montana being devastated by a nuclear exchange known as "the Collapse", the game follows a group of survivors as they attempt to rebuild their community and defeat a gang of vicious bandits. Players assume the role of an unnamed security captain who, like Far Cry 5's deputy sheriff, is silent and highly customizable. New Dawn features most of the pre-existing gameplay elements of the series, including a large open world, capturing of outposts, and AI or co-op companions; it also introduces several elements from RPG gameplay, such as an upgradeable home base and increased reliance on crafting from limited supplies.
Far Cry New Dawn was released worldwide for PlayStation 4, Windows, and Xbox One on February 15, 2019. It received generally mixed reviews, with praise for the world design and entertaining gameplay, and criticism for its narrative and similarities to Far Cry 5. The game's sales were lower than both Far Cry 5 and Far Cry Primal.
Development: New Dawn is developed by Ubisoft Montreal in conjunction with Ubisoft Kyiv, Ubisoft Bucharest and Ubisoft Shanghai. According to art director Issac Papismado, the team had wanted to create a post-apocalyptic game set in the Far Cry series for a long time. The team intentionally avoided a dark and bleak tone as they felt that it would be a cliché and resolved to create a world that looks vibrant.
Set seventeen years after Far Cry 5, the world is undergoing a "super bloom" in which nature reclaims the world and gives the game a vibrant color palette. To give Highwaymen a visual identity, the team invited Montreal artist Zilon to create the game's art and graffiti. Similar to Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon and Far Cry Primal, the game is a smaller production when compared to the series' main entries, a decision reflected by the game's lower launch price. Announced at The Game Awards 2018, the game was released for PlayStation 4, Windows, and Xbox One on February 15, 2019.
