Posted March 26, 20187 yr Hey all, SkillUp got an advanced copy of FarCry 5 for PS. He's played through the entire game and did a lengthy 18 minute review (I'd say some minor spoilers, but not many). TL;DR, great game, few, if any, repeats in quests, but marred by a micro transaction system that locks out many guns/cars/vehicles due to having to grind your ass off to afford anything using in-game currency. He said the micro transaction part didn't ruin the enjoyment of single player, but if you're a completionist, it's terrible. -RabidRebel
March 26, 20187 yr I dont have an issue with MTX as a whole as long as it cosmetic. GR:W MTX was basically just reskins of existing weapons. If its pay to win which I doubt it is then shame on them otherwise meh. If they offer a fat redneck skin however.. where did I put that credit card? After watching the video I think its a kinda shitty premise they have going here but i will rely on the whole you dont have to buy stuff deal. Edited March 26, 20187 yr by NetRngr
March 26, 20187 yr Author Well the review didn't cover the Far Cry Arcade -- the PVP portion. I would assume that the modes are separate so "pay to win" isn't a factor for that experience. It just looks like if you want a more complete arsenal for single player/co-op, you'll have to cough up some cash or your valuable time.
