Funny enough, the rest of the franchise would become the definition of insanity itself…
But this one though…
This one, is the best example of a great game, well written, extremely well made, BUT…. Riddled with classic questionable Ubisoft decisions that could have destroyed it, had it not been for one… tiny, little, detail…..
Vaas Montenegro.
One of the best written, acted, and developed characters of videogame history.
Mixed with one of the best protagonists as well.
Jason Brody being a mirror of Vaas’s tragic story, is the fuel that keeps this game burning even so long after its release.
Had it not been for Hoyt’s final island that takes up half of the game, everyone would agree this game was a 10/10…. It is to me, but, I understand why it isn’t to many.
This game marked history as the creator of the best open world formula of it’s time, that slowly became more and more cursed due to it being overused in every single Ubisoft game even to this day.
It is a great, memorable experience that has the staying power of any of the ultimate classics of videogame history like Bioshock and Spec Ops: The Line.
(But… not 100% as great as those of course)
So…
To end this review, I ask you….
Did I ever tell you the definition…. Of insanity?
