So what's the meme this time?And I've just found out that, besides a meme ending a la FC4, this game has only one ending.

How long until it comes to Steam tho? 6 months? 1 year?
I also find it so strange how they make these huge open world games, but then the game is so linear. The two designs oppose each other. Open world was supposed to let each player have a unique experience to them, where they all go different directions and end up doing different things in different places. So there aren't Youtube videos of people all playing the exact same game. Early MMOs achieved this and they weren't even open world. This game spends a fortune on the open world and filling it with generic stuff for people to waste their time with. But then they spend many more millions on all these characters, stories, dialogues, and voice actors for this very linear story driven experience.
In the end everyone has played the same character, met the same characters, heard the same lines, been to the same places, and ended the same way. That's a linear character driven game. All the locations that people don't even visit are wasted development. And all the generic content is wasted development and weaker gameplay as a result. It would have made more sense to make a finely tuned experience with set pieces etc. This game could have saved millions of dollars and been a better game and the average player would have more fun and wouldn't have even noticed all the missing fluff.
Or they could go the other way. Save a fortune on all the Breaking Bad stuff and focus on making a better game world. One that people might enjoy playing for years instead of a few weeks. I could use Bethesda as an example but I wont. EQ is the best example, a game with a 3m budget that people still enjoy playing around with 22 years later. But people will be done with this in a month.
To be fair though, there's enough quality stuff on the non 'AAA' (whatever that means at this point) developers for "us" to enjoy.
Reminds me of the whole idiocy surrounding the drama with the torture scene in GTA V. But meh, self-righteous pricks gonna be self-righteous pricks.
If you're going to put it in the game, don't sanitize it.The minigame consists of giving the player control of one of the battling roosters, although neither is shown to be killed or badly wounded by the fight.
Far Cry 6 needs more VRAM than the Nvidia RTX 3080 has to load HD textures
For all its flaws, Far Cry 6 is unquestionably a game best experienced in high definition with the settings cranked up if your gaming PC can handle it. Unfortunately, the optional 35GB HD texture pack might be a little too far out of reach for most, as it’s a greedy VRAM gobbling monster that few graphics cards can feed.
To Ubisoft’s credit, Far Cry 6 explicitly tells you in the menu that you’ll need at least 11GB of video memory to run the HD texture pack. Sadly, it’s a curiously restrictive requirement that raises eyebrows, as it means the Nvidia RTX 3060 meets the right specification just fine with its chonky 12GB of VRAM, but the meatier RTX 3060 Ti falls short with just 8GB. Even Nvidia’s flagship RTX 3080 is a gigabyte out of reach and sometimes fails to load textures properly.
Fortunately, DSOGaming’s performance analysis shows that the RTX 3080 and the RTX 2080 Ti can just about handle the HD texture pack when running the game at 1440p resolution. Crank this up to 4K with ray tracing on, however, and you’ll have a bit of a problem, as low resolution textures end up mixed in with their high resolution counterparts.
If you’re struggling, Ubisoft suggests you play the game without the pack or flick the option off in the Far Cry 6 settings if you already have it installed. You’ll still experience the same game, as Yara is quite a captivating landscape – even if our Far Cry 6 review finds the game far from revolutionary.
This isn’t the only performance issue it suffers from, as the same report also criticises Far Cry 6’s processor optimisation. The game seems to play nicely with gaming CPUs featuring better instructions per clock (IPC), but HyperThreading can sometimes tank your frames by as much as 10fps, so you might want to disable it in the BIOS before booting.
So, the question is can you run it? Test your PC against the Far Cry 6 system requirements over at PCGameBenchmark to see if your rig’s up to the task. If it is and you’re still struggling, disable the Ubisoft Connect overlay to see if that helps your performance – it might even solve these HD texture pack problems.
