Far Cry was so bad, I am cautiously approaching this one-

Ah, I owe you an apology. I wasn't familiar with your game.

Nomad does small talk with his team, drinks some lean, and there he go. It's time to attack people of color. Editor's note: they are at war there is no personal motivation behind Nomad's actions. Anyways his crew gets their shit rocked throughout the game but luckily he pulls through with the power of friendship patriotism. Suspiciously only the US is trying to save the world of an alien invasion but maybe other countries are just shy 😳

Similar to Bioshock, you mow down waves of enemies while switching between your abilities. The environment looks better than Far Cry, first game that approached the ceiling of realistic graphics for sure! Kick back and enjoy... because also ultra realistic is that everyone and everything you grab just dies. Look what these hands do m8. Even the final boss tossed me around like a crepe and I lived to tell the tale. Spectacle of a final fight btw holy grandiose.

Everyone asks "can it run Crysis" but nobody asks "should you run Crysis" because the answer is no you shouldn't

neat game
i love how open all the levels are and the nanosuit is fun to mess around with
the game does fall off a bit after the aliens show up but its still a good game
sadly i could not run the Can It Run Crysis graphics setting

The first Crysis is pretty much a tech show-off and... that's about it.
I can't say I've ever been a fan of the first Crysis, but I must admit that it was impressive for the year 2007. It looked really good, and not many PCs could run it. The game was known for pushing the limits of hardware, making it a benchmark for PC gaming.
It had cool mechanics like the invisible cloak and the fact that the environment was destroyable. These features added a layer of strategy and interaction that was novel at the time.

The tropical setting, reminiscent of the first Far Cry, was now in North Korea with robot aliens. On paper, this sounds great.
However, in reality, the game doesn't excel in anything beyond its technological achievements. The story and gameplay felt lackluster compared to its visual prowess.
The remaster isn't that great either.
