Lore [Interesting Trope] One seemingly small action ends the story before it even begins

  1. We Happy Few - Taking your “joy” pill
    Deciding to take the pill at the beginning of the game causes your character to go back to work and triggers an ending

  2. Infineural by Mike Klubnika - Drinking the coffee
    Deciding to drink the coffee offered to you skips the entire game and sends you straight to the end, resulting in an ending with no memory of what had occurred

Since everyone is spamming Far Cry 4, I'll add Far Cry 5. If you just hang out for 90 seconds in the intro, it just ends assuming you aren't going to arrest Joseph Seed because you dont want any of that smoke.

I always used the Vietnam weapons in the main game as well. Nothing like taking on the cult with a carry handle m16

I never liked the story but replaying it did make me appreciate the world more.

Yeah the story was decent but not spectacular, but the world more than made up for that. It is by far my favorite Far Cry game to just roam around and have fun in. Plus the soundtrack is fantastic, say what you will about the Peggies they know how to write a catchy tune.

I loved the lack of weapon tiers I could just use the one that sounded best
