Wrapped-up Far Cry 4... Pretty satisfied.
The original Far Cry was a delightful breath of fresh air in the FPS genre, being all kinds of fun and ridiculous and pretty. The console-based spinoffs were lacking, but whatever; they don't matter in the long run. Crysis felt like more of an evolution of Far Cry (which makes sense, given the developer) whereas Far Cry 2 was a friggin' revelation in terms of design. The thing is, Far Cry 2 may have been a little too real with its malaria and endless enemies... As I recall, it was tryingly difficult, which was kinda sad 'cause it was such an amazing achievement. Far Cry 3 found the necessary balance to really open things up to the general public and Far Cry 4 was more of the same, but in a completely different locale; and I'm fine with that. The story was solid, the characters were over-the-top and entertaining, the choices were challenging (albeit myopic), the world was vibrant, exploration felt rewarding, and the Shangri-La missions were actually fantastic (which makes Far Cry Primal even more intriguing to me)... The best part? You could just kill all the main players after the credits roll... No! Wait! The best part is actually when "Jaan Pehechan Ho" starts playing during a particularly intense firefight :) Oh, and the DLC was fine, but kinda meh.
Aaanyway, wrapping-up Never Alone, lost interest in Hotline Miami 2, had a brief dalliance with Strife: Veteran Edition, and now I'm thinking it's time to suck it up and get back to Alien: Isolation.
Also, my Origin account was hacked. Got everything back, but lost all of my "on the house" titles :(
