Far Cry 4 on Playstation 4

So, I may be a little late to the party, but recently started playing Far Cry 4 and I must say it is a magically extraordinary adventure!

Far Cry 4 is set in the fictional country of Kyrat, which is similar to modern day Tibet.

This game brings action, adventure, strategy, and the fear of being slaughtered by wild animals. Including eagles that swoop down from the sky to eat your face!

The character development and plot of the game is well done and there are a few missions that can dictate balance of power and actually change the ending of the game. The decisions you make actually matter!!!

The weapon selection in the game is very broad and lets you do just about anything. I just wish I could carry more than 4 weapons at max, at a time.

Hunting in the game is quite fun as well. You can track and kill animals for their fur and meat. Use their meat to lure predators to your enemies. Just always have to keep an eye out for them sneaking up on you. Occasionally you may be ambushed by a bear or tiger so you should always be prepared for that. Shotguns are a great and powerful weapon to make most predators go down with just a few shots.

Especially the honey badgers. Those little bastards are the toughest animals in the game, except maybe the Rhino and the Elephant... 


The Honey Badger in game looks like a long skunk, black and white in color. They will take many many shots to take them down, and confronting one with your knife is just suicide...

With endless side missions and free range exploration, this is a game that you can play for weeks on end without it getting old!

I highly recommend Far Cry 4 and have to give it a 10/10. There were only a few minor nuances I had, the little helicopter you can fly around in does not seem to have a consistent altitude cap. You can be at different altitudes above the ground and still begin to stall.

But that is a minor nuance and not worth dropping the game down to a 9.

The plot itself in a journey of exploring your characters past and his parents involvement in the development of Kyrat and is intertwined with the current dictator. The entire game you are combating his regime, working your way through his commanders and forces to get to his fortress and confront him.
