That's not how an internet argument works you guys, gawsh!
I know, right?
I mean, there wasn't like, ONE mention of how the other guy was Hitler!
This is not kool guise
But on topic, I really, really liked Farcry 3.
Vaas was by far the best villain in the game. Hoyt, he didn't really cut it, I hated him and wanted to kill him, which are the trademarks of a "good" villain, but Vaas was on a different level entirely. I loved his insanity speeches, "Jason, have I ever told you the definition of insanity... Doing things over and over, expecting for it to change!" and this is a little fact, but I love the fact he basically told Jason he was batshit insane by acting into his own definition of insanity, by giving him the speech multiple times.
The game was actually quite a challenge, especially playing stealth, and something that annoyed me is that it seems that you really can't "Stealth" some of the main missions, especially towards the point of no return. I'm sitting here being shot at by heavies and jeeps with turrets on them, holding a little silenced pistol, silenced M700, a bow, and that one assault rifle you actually can silence. So basically, pussy setup.
I was also really annoyed with Heavies, as they are near impossible to kill, (For me, because my dumb ass never thought about using those handy fire/explosive arrows I crafted at the beginning of the game, ONCE,) but that's my own damn fault because I never think.
But the ending was actually really impressive. I thought they were going to bomb it, as most FPS games are wont to do nowadays, but I actually thought it was decently well done. I still tie in the fact the ONLY choice you make is at the end of the game, and hell, it is more about shooting people in fun ways than it is about story, so yeah, good ending compared to some cliffhanger that would leave an obvious hint for a crappy sequel.
I have a bunch of complaints though, most are minor and don't really take away from the game itself, but my biggest one: Jason sounds like a bitch. Someone please tell me they agree, because every time I hear the guy talk I want to punch myself in the face. The thing is, it's not the voice, I don't have anything wrong with the voice, per-say, it's a nice change from the typical charcoal-for-lungs grizzled war vet, but his inflection is what pisses me off, like when he tells whomever is driving the vehicle to go faster, I swear I hear his voice crack, and I sit here waiting for his pair to suddenly drop. Still, a minor complaint, and it didn't detract TOO much from the story, it was mainly when he talks in the middle of a fight is when it annoys me the most.
