Legendary party play!

I enjoyed playing this for the first time in Nov 2023. I didn't want to install Ubisoft hence I'm only playing it now.

The graphics holds up really well. The game runs very smooth my computer's fans hardly spin. The amount of chaos in the game keeps you on your toes and makes the game fun and unpredictable. The side quests are meh but the main story was decent. There was a few funny bugs here and there but nothing serious, no game crashes. Co-op is quite limited. The tower grind was much more fun than Far Cry 3. Overall definitely worth the R90 I payed for it in 2023 :D

The amount of loading screens and time spent in menus took the fun out of the game for me.

Very few vendors throughout the game and in the few spots where you could find them they had ridiculously low amount of credits and ran out constantly. Inventory carry limits and penalties are unbalanced given how important items are. These mechanics made sense in Skyrim, it felt more balanced and I enjoyed it in that context. You can't start base construction, then go do some exciting missions and come back to base construction again. Even if you maxed out increased carrying perks it's not feasible. Base building is unnecessarily complicated and a simple grid system is sorely missed.

On the positive side the story and character development is good. The dialog options are fun and I enjoyed the extra options that are tailored for your character. Ship building is somewhat basic but still enjoyable. There's less bugs than original TES or Fallout releases. I only had one game crash during my first 24 hours.

I would have recommended the game if the game was designed better from an user experience and technical mechanics perspective or if the game wasn't trying to do too many things and cost much less.

Error The Far Cry 3 Blood Dragon service is not available. Please try again later.

Better than AoE3 not as good as AoE2. Improved netcode (no turtle) and works without issues in Windows 10.

Loads of fun 9/10.

Hackers on the first day of playing. No report or auto detection of people flying.

Should have released the game without autolog, I want to race not sell my personal information.

Beautiful visuals, great sound, realistic physics, and interesting story.

First playthrough was ~3 hours, will play again!

This game set the standards for FPS gaming. It has awesome mods (support) too.
