Yes, yes I know, this isn't FPSCodex. I got this game as a gift (physical DVD, not Steam) and I'm pretty disappointed. I don't know about that OMG RAYCIZM bullshit all the cool kids are ranting about, but maybe I just haven't gotten far enough into it yet to see any of that. For me the worst thing is what a terrible and buggy console port this is. The graphics are noticeably worse than FC2 in DX9 mode, and the game is basically unplayable in DX11. Kind of the Crysis 2 vs Crysis thing all over again. The quality of the sound samples, especially voices, is just terrible, it sounds like it was recorded in 11KHz and then had massive compression applied afterwards. This is the most unpolished game I've seen since the first S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Then there's also the the fact of the game going into corridor mode whenever you're in a mission, and you instafail when just taking a step too far in the wrong direction.
Amongst the usual "GOTY 99/100" "Best open world sim EVAR", "Truly groundbreaking" "Better than 50 blowjobs" paid-for "reviews", this is the first actual, honest review I've found of the game that seems to really explain what it's like to play: http://www.gameranx.com/features/id/11911/article/we-need-to-talk-about-far-cry-3/
Thoughts?
(The intense butthurt in the comments section is also good for a laugh, or a cry if you realise the level of brainwashing at work)
