The pacing of story missions to world building and side activities means that even though this is a smaller game, it still feels like there is plenty to do and see.
FAR CRY 5 SINS OF THE FATHER FULL
Covering almost the full Hope County map, the world has been transformed in the aftermath of the bombs as new life springs up on top of rampant destruction. It was fascinating to see people, places, and the aftermath of events from Far Cry 5 play out through some great environmental storytelling. While still an interesting story of how various factions survive after an apocalypse, the larger narrative doesn’t carry the same weight if you hadn’t been in Hope County when the bombs went off. The struggle between The Father and the player throughout the hours of Far Cry 5’s story sets up this player betrayal that Ubisoft pulls (even if you are a different character in-world). New Dawn leans into the “enemy of my enemy is my friend” dynamic, but I don’t think it would be nearly as effective if you had missed out on the first game. Yes, The Father, the villain you fought so hard against in the first game, might just be your only hope against the highwaymen. It’s soon revealed that the only people who can help the survivors of Hope County is New Eden, Joseph Seed’s mysterious new cult following created in the wake of the disaster. You arrive looking to help the survivors, and very quickly learn just how unforgiving Mickey and Lou are. At the head of the Hope County chapter are two sisters, twins, whose brutality rivals the best Far Cry villains. Then come the Highwaymen, a band of roving bandits that want the apocalypse to look a lot more like Mad Max. More than two decades after the bombs fell on Hope County and the rest of the world, the survivors have emerged from their bunkers and are rebuilding their lives. It’s worth being able to unlock these new perks quickly when they become available. About two-thirds of the way in, a nice little twist will actually change the way you play with a new set of perks, so be sure to save a few skill points. Rest assured that things get a bit more crazy than just handing you the new saw launcher early in the game. Some of the best beats in New Dawn are ones that can’t actually be marketed, or they risk spoiling the experience. On the surface, Far Cry New Dawn might seem simply like a post-apocalyptic version of Far Cry 5, and that assumption isn’t wrong, but it only tells half the story.
