i want to start with this: as of april 2020, far cry 5 is now my favorite game. the story is amazing, and the gameplay is so much fun. it has it's issues no doubt but that doesn't change how much i love this game.

the biggest problem i have with this game is the linear sections. the open world gets you used to having full access to so many resources, and than the linear parts remove those resources.

now to the story, i fucking love the story. it's a story of slowly realizing that a cult is correct, and (in the resist ending) it ends with what you were told was going to happen, happening. it's basically asking what if immoral religions were correct.

gameplay gets a 4.
story gets a 5.
