How can Far Cry get away with recycling not just gameplay, but the actual guns of the game? Even other shit AAA series like CoD or Battlefield shake up the arsenal with every new iteration, and that's once a year. They worked on this game for four years and of the already paltry selection of merely 20 weapons, 11 of them are recycled that were featured in 3 and 4.

How can they get away with this? Even a shit company like Bethesda can make an open world, with a story, rpg """elements""", etc, while also making a whole arsenal of 60+ weapons. New Vegas was made in 18 months and had like fucking 200 new weapons for a grand total of 300+. How can the Far Cry series get away with add only fucking nine new weapons and expect people to buy their shit? Their worlds are copy pasted compared to bethesturd's, their "story" is laughably simple, and they don't have a dialogue system or other RPg things to consider, and fucking nine new weapons after YEARS of development is all they can manage? How is this banality even possible?

Is there a game series that is more of a lazy copy/paste job than Far Cry 3-5?

65bee1 No.14598661

300 weapons in new vegas is nothing when they all have same animation and shitty looks/sounds to them, and that includes melee shit that is awfully animated. Far Cry gets away with everything because of marketing and open world meme, that's it.

All guns in all the cawadooty iterations are exactly the same, they simply reskin them for each game.

Through actual sales or ad revenue? Because selling games isn't the only way to make money these days, and one of the reasons AAA games are still pushing onward despite being loads of shit is due to ad revenue.

d4b365 No.14600205

>>14600185

I'm saying they're making money by alternate means, if it isn't ad revenue they're posting sales based on the companies they SOLD to, like Gamestop or Wal-mart, not actual customer buys.

It means they convinced the stores to buy their games, not the customers. it's a three step business, people don't buy direct.

Do you wonder how these companies sell millions in their first weeks anyway? It's not to people, but the stores. Half of the marketing campaign is so that THEY will buy.

Why do you think the AAA industry is in decline right now? Because it actually is, they're not selling as much as they used to, even TO stores.

The only reason they keep going is likely because they have an arrangement that feeds itself. The AAA industry is dead on the water.

>recycled gameplay and guns

That's nothing, Far Cry 4 and Far Cry Primal have the same fucking map. The landmarks have changed but the layout is identical.


3d66ff No.14609950

Recycling guns is one of the only things I'm okay with them recycling. Far Cry games are all set roughly in the same time period (last 20 or so years) and guns haven't changed all that fucking much. Obviously at the cutting edge they have, but in scummy shitholes like in 2/4, or among random criminals like 3/5 you're not going to get cutting edge.

CoD recycle the animations and sometimes even the cutscenes (CoD Ghosts).


440d92 No.14610308

Far Cry and Asscreed, as franchises, are more about applying the same gameplay template to new settings and time periods then it is about making the gameplay more interesting.

Personally, i'm fine with that. It allows them to explore settings that would otherwise never show up outside of indieshit, and while niether of their gameplay is great, both are serviceable.

They do it in really retarded ways, though. In Montana (or anywhere in the US, really) you'd expect your average, readily-available, run-of-the-mill pump-action shotgun to be a Winchester or Mossberg. Nope - instead it's a Baikal, except that they tossed some Winchester bits onto the front. Most people aren't even aware that there is a gun company named Baikal.

Pick only one. "They" have been creating these self-perpetuating bubbles a long time, and they get increasingly better at it.

Recycling the gameplay is more concerning for me, since Far Cry 5 is basically a montana map pack for Far Cry 4. They get a way with it because normalfags are braindead retards willing to eat whatever shit is shoveled in front of them.

Wasn't it from Far Cry 4? But I hear what you're saying…on top of that all the animals from Primal were just re-skinned ones from 3,4. Not to mention that Ubisoft made four games out of the exact same gameplay loop (3, Blood Dragon, 4 and Primal). That is the creative power of jewish capitalism.

One problem of 3 was the bloat of useless weapons they threw in that no-one used, they might be being lazy cunts but it'd be a waste to go back to that situation if they're not significantly different/not have 10 that are ludicrously OP so no-one uses anything else.
