Far Cry 4 Fail

You can choose to side with him in the end

Here's hoping for a DLC where you get to side with him and take out those fucking terrorist scumbags.

All i wanted was to kill poorfags with my Uncle.

>>272365864
Really?
>>272365743
I was so disappointed when game just showed me fucking credits instead of letting me shoot guns with my cool uncle.

that's the point m8
You're supposed to question who are the good guys

>>272366112
wait 15 min in his house and he and you go to leave your mothers ashes with your sisters. to bad the game ends right after.

>>272366156
Then why not give me the opportunity to choose?
Oh, right, cause ubi soft.

>>272366156

its pretty fucking obvious who the bigger evil here is.

that's why i was asking.

>>272365743
What a surprise, /v/ has the empathic skill and political thought of a 10 year old.

Problem is, i refuse to play the game anymore because i dislike the Golden Path. I just don't enjoy playing with them. I don't feel i should be involved in this shit.

So as this anon said >>272366065, unless a DLC where you get to play after buring your mothers ashes and get to shoot some guns etc comes along, i'll be leaving this game where it is. Luckily i didn't buy it!

>>272366457
>supports drug pushing terorrists who will install their own king

>>272366457
I haven't played it but from the OP the guy seems like a Machiavellian dictator.
You can or cannot like something like that but it's not by far pure evil as the baddies almost always are shown to be

>>272366893

>>272366457
But you can't defend or retaliate to what OP has written, because in all honesty he's right.

While the alternate ending is appreciated it makes you question why the rest of the game was even made, as taking said action and fleeing is just ludicrous.

>>272367026
The rest of the game was made to facilitate situations where you shoot other people in the face. That's all the story is for, to create situations where you get to experience FPS gameplay within a game environment. Nothing more.

Your choices in a videogame do not have to reflect your personal morality.

>Caring about stories in videogames.

>>272367026
>But you can't defend or retaliate to what OP has written, because in all honesty he's right.
You're not fooling anyone OP.

>>272367151
You're simply saying "Hey, let's ignore the story and go ahead and make another shit tasting FPS exactly like it's sequel".

But even if that's your point you're wrong. Far Cry 3 had a purpose, and while the story was nothing special, there was a clear goal and reason for what the Player did/had too do against Vaas and saving his friends and family. He wasn't killing/murdering people because he enjoyed it, but more because he was forced to join a faction against another to save his loved ones.

This game doesn't do that, it just makes the Protagonist redundant and pointless after the first 15minutes.
So, i'll ask you again. How can you defend this game?

>>272367186
He is right. Instead of giving you a choice, they force you to fight for terrorists.

HEY UBISOFT

Have I ever told you the definition of insanity?

So now having a good villain is suddenly bad because the game isn't sandbox story where YOU CAN DO EVERYTHING™ though that was never promised from the beginning?

Do you always have to play the rational guys rather than being the one in the wrong like any game where you're not a self insert, but rather a different character?

>>272367338
Because I don't play FPS for their poorly written stories. I play them for gameplay. I don't need a narrative driven motivation, which is apparently what you want.

>>272367396
Those are called Roll Playing Games. Try them out, they're fun.

>>272366358
When was "choice" ever a norm in video games? You very vell couldn't join the nazis in any WW2 game like Saboteur, and you can't join templars in Asscred series. Hell, you never could join the demons, alines or other associated bad guys in Quake, Doom, fucking elder scrolls and baldurs gate etc. So why do people demand freedom of choice now, in every fucking game?

>>272367396
A good villain is one who makes you hate him without being a stereotype or caricature.

An average villain is one who does lots of evil things because he's the bad guy and he's supposed to be evil.

A terrible villain is one who makes you like and sympathize with him.

>>272367396
They have to support it with good writing and characters or it won't work, just like in Far Cry 4.
- "Hey man, we knew your dad, you know. And this Pagan guy is very very evil, why don't you kill him for us. Look at this strong woman."
- "Ok"

>>272367479
> I don't need a narrative driven motivation, which is apparently what you want.
No, but i expect more from a Far Cry game, especially after FC3. Guessing you haven't played it, so it doesn't matter.

Also if that's all you want from an FPS you're a casual, and should focus your attention on Call of Duty games and stay away from other such as Halo, Half Life etc, since you don't want a story
Now get out.

Yes he was, the ending is just that, do you want to keep killing people in the island or go back to society (where you are miserable) with your friends.

The game was about "look at all this cool stuff you can do when morals dont exist"

i quite enjoyed the saboteur but i was bummed out that if i put on any jerry uniform that bumbing american wet dream of a "FOIGHTY TOIGHTY OIRISHMUN" kept his fucking trousers on and just left the top part of the uniform.

i wanted to be roaming with the death squads in paris in my Gestapo car.


it would have been a better game if you could join the nazi's and spent 98% of the time watching burlesque,drinking coffee and porking some french girls and then the other 2% marching.

>>272365743
Well they told us that they we would not like the game.

>>272367338
>how can you defend this game

Because the gameplay is good, get your story crying out of here.

>>272367702

>/v/ is one person

>>272365743
But the main question is
SHOULD I STAY OR SHOULD I GO?

>>272367592
People don't complain about the inability to join the Nazis because that's not something most reasonable people would want to do. People are complaining about the inability to join Pagan Min because a lot of people actually want that. When the game basically forces you to go against your desires, it breaks the suspension of disbelief. You begin to realize that you're being railroaded and that leaves a bad taste in your mouth.

Just like Gadaffi and Assad, he's better than the alternatives.

>>272365864
Let me guess, it's a "choice" like the first game where he will kill me afterwards.

>>272367601
>a terrible villain is one who makes you like and sympathise with him

Kill yourself.

>>272367913
Except the part where you can kill all the rebels and join Pagan at the end when you truly see them for what they are.

>>272367776
>I played it, the story was fucking garbage.
That's an opinion. But you're in the minority. Not that it matters.
But there are ALOT of FPS games out there with good stories, and it always works in their favour.

And in response too;
>Give me a break, guy. You can't honestly tell me you thought the narrative in FC3 was good.
No, i didn't think it was good. But there was a basic plot that gave your character motivation and purpose.
In Far Cry 4 the protagonist goes against all rationale thinking and it draws you away from the game due to how unrealistic the approach of said character is.

Howsa bout you spoiler your shit, asshole

the problem the OP is trying to point out.. is that through out the game, the Villian is a lesser evil than the Rebels you join up with.

and the endings of the game only cement this, there is no twist, you simply find out the rebels are worse than the villian like hinted through the entire game, and then its over.

You seem to have made a critical error. "A lot" is actually two separate words. People without a reasonable amount of education regularly lump those two words together. Perhaps you should step back from your keyboard and consider how dumb you are.

Thank you and good day.

But with baldur's you can side with the "bad guys" in every situation that doesn't require plot armour to you know..drive the plot.
Hell even the main story lets you side with the "bad guys".

vaas was entertaining and everything, but I still think the Jackal was the best villain, in terms of character. Far Cry 2 let itself down by managing to be boring, but I thought the faction structure was pretty sound.

Why in vidya gaems (and movies for that matter) are "rebels" always seen as the good guys?

You have 10 seconds to name a game where the side doing the rebelling are "bad". And not just "if you look at it this way" bad, I mean "they are the people you spend most of the game shooting and not just because you're an enforcer for Captain Evil".

Protip: You can't

>>272368192
except Doom gives you alot of purpose, not to mention the entire gameplay and premise is metal as fuck.

>>272368035
Sure.
Paga Min is your step dad.
Your real dad is a cunt and the rebel leader who killed your sister and forced your mother who loved Pagan Min out of the country. Rebels are a bunch of drug selling twats who lie to you and use you.

I have found your problem, you are looking for logic in a game from the same people who think a stable framrate/decent resolution isn't important at all in action games.

>>272368302
the Jackal was never a villian, though.

there are two ways of looking at this.

either the Jackal is actually you, and you have a split personality, or not.

either way, the Jackal is the hero of the story (even if he was a bad man before) and is the only reason you do anything good.

>>272368295
Not like that. You can choose to be a bad guy, and an asshole at that. But you can't actually be on the team with the bad guys (like joining Sarevok). That's the issue with D&D games. Whatever you do, if there's a sequel, whatever ending you get from a D&D is invalidated in the next one.

>>272368415

well... careful, someone is supplying arms to both sides of a civil war. General populace are getting slaughtered and you're/he is getting rich off it. That's not a "good" guy, but I definitely take your point.

CoD 4

>>272368590
i also wana fuck that qt jailbait tho

People on /v/ like to hate on stories but that's fucking retarded. I'm not going to descend into SJW-bullshit "the story and characters are ALL that matter!" faggotry, but many games want, at the very least, a framing device. Usually the framing device encourages the behavior the player wants to do anyway; in Dark Souls, you want to kill the big bad monsters, so the story encourages killing big bad monsters.

But in Far Cry 4 the opposite happens. The framing device pushes in a different direction from the gameplay. All the cool content comes from siding with the rebels and shooting Pagan Min's followers, but the writing makes Pagan Min seem like the best person to side with. It's pulling in two directions. Generally stories are best when they're not intrusive. That doesn't mean they can be ignored, it just means that they mesh well with the gameplay. Far Cry 4's story has the opposite effect.

>>272367943
You can side with him right at the start, and he treats you like family. Which you are

>>272368690

can you? I got dragged out by the Golden Twats brigade and fucked down a mountain in a truck

It has nothing to do with him being friendly, he is genuinely the better choice for the future of everyone, the rebels make things worse.

You, the player, can pick up on that thread early in the game but you are forced to along with it no matter what, you have no say in the narrative of the game.

That is what sucks. It isn't a question of is pagan min the good guys in the end, NOBODY IS THE GOOD GUYS, the rebels really are the WORSE guys though.

>>272368363
That's fair. I thought the game would be a racing game from the first hour of buildup

>>272365743
That's why you play through the game once as "intended", delete your save, then start over and this time listen to the kind gentleman who just saved your ass, and enjoy the true good ending.

>>272368362
>Paga Min is your step dad
Dammit, I called him your actual Dad at the E3 trailer.

So close

>>272368805
This anon gets it.
It's what makes the game so INFURIATING!
They tryed to add the option for 'multiple paths' but didn't realise that people would likely fucking hate the rebels. I mean doing something you don't want to do in a game that offers you choices doesn't make sense too me.

>>272368628
>But you can't actually be on the team with the bad guys
But you can.
Not in number 1 as the needed to have continuity for the sequel.
You can literally join the vampire cult run by bodhi up until the point irenicus decides to kill you to obtain godly power.
You can join the bad guys in just about any place it would be reasonable, you can't expect every 10,000 year old dragon to team up with the latest poorly geared adventurer to enter his lair.

>>272368785
You just have to do what he tells you.
"Don't go anywhere, i be right back" in the beginning of the game.

>>272368785
When you're eating dinner with Pagan Min and he leaves for a moment and asks you to stay put, do so. Enjoy the crab rangoon. Don't try to escape the heavily-guarded compound with people you don't even know into unfamiliar territory just so you can start a war with the only guy to show you any compassion.

The only reason to join the Rebels is for a shot at that teen girl. As far as I can tell, all the other women look like shit.

i want choice because the way the story is presented makes me think that i should be able to choose. one thing is "aww, i want to be the devils, too bad they attack me on sight because they crave my soul", one other thing is "this guy's the bad guy i guess, but he's treating me fair as of now. no wait who are this guys? i don't even know you, why would i want to come with you? stop yelling, what's forcing me to follow these jackasses? what, you almost had me get shot for "helping me escape" from a perfectly safe situation and now i'm supposed to repay you by doing your dirty work?". when you discover you don't have choice one makes you think "welp, bummer. but makes sense, i guess.", the other makes you think "BOO SHET"

We don't know if they are "the people" anymore than the taliban are "the people" or even if the rebels are the prominent leaders of a military coup working with drug lords.
Hell for all we know it's a CIA funded operation for both money laundering and installing a puppet goverment.

So you reach the end? That's a choice bro. You can stay put and finish the game, or you can go on wacky adventures with the rebels. One ends the game earlier, the other extends it. Choices choices.

To be fair, he is probably a terrible dictator. He clearly lives lavishly while his people suffer in poverty, and I'm sure, given his psychotic whims, that he doesn't lead the country very well.

Eh, fair enough. I should probably give this thing a pirate at some point to check the intro sequence, but considering how Far Cry 3 handled its characters I have zero problem believing that the entire supporting cast on the rebel side is utterly unlikable and impossible to take seriously, because that was the case with Citra's lunatics.

In games the point is that you're playing using someone else's body and your brain. Otherwise they would be making the path-choosing decisions for you and you would be capped by their IQ.

You don't get to choose speech sometimes which is a limitation of the tech, and it is reasonable to be limited by the character's physical limits [e.g. missing leg, was unconscious] but otherwise the point is YOU are playing the game, not the character.

This is pretty obvious stuff.

I'm starting to suspect that people are supposed to dislike "your own team" after FC3 and now this. It's like they're trying something different than being surrounded by the biggest bros and a "fuck yeah team" feeling.

>>272371386

I guess it the question is, if the game itself into forcefeeding a CURRENT and RELEVANT topic down someone's throats [so you can't say that, say, the original Bioshock is seriously harmed by its bias, because who the hell thinks objectivism is relevant in the modern world?], the staff can probably pander on Twitter all they want. It's basically a different form of advertisement. And so far the biggest problem with Far Cry 4 seems to be that of differing viewpoints on whose side is right rather than one being shielded by the golden lights of social justice in some form or another

Yeah. I don't really see how he could have done much though apart from sell everything to give to the poor; and with that in mind a king needs to present a royal appearance to keep up international respect, and largesse to the poor was already a thing anyway.
His reign was really a bunch of poorly timed mistakes, but I think he was doing the best he could do, and that was kinda drowned out by propaganda after his death.

Your father was a terrorist. He sent you mother to spy on Pagan, but they fell in love and had a kid. Your father then murdered your half-sister, and your mother ran from him. Pagan knows who you are, and treats you so well because of how much he loved your mother.

Not sure what the unrelated father of a half sibling makes him.

The post he was quoting literally spells it out Anon

>>272373023

From what I can understand, you are a figment of Rimanah's imagination, along with the rest of the world you're in. He broke his legs after sending his wife to the forbidden palace intentionally and having her gain brouzouf, then something happened to his legs and essentially he's on life support via necrocybermancy. The exaggerations are due in part to Rimanah gaining brouzouf, like how much shit you can fling with Metastreunomic Force, or how there's a talking mentor in New Eden, or a talking Carnophage in one of the penultimate missions.

The way that you can replay the game (and you have to beat it three different ways before you can get to the true brouzouf) represents the cyclical nature of Rimanah's legs.

Even when you get to Minos and find your wife, you're transported to an island with no way of escape other than breaking the legs and gaining the Brouzouf all over again, or exiting E.Y.E (essentially making the legs OK, waking Rimanah up)

That'd be taking it a bit too far, at most it'd be the exact same free roaming game except the compaign would be one or two missions only. And I'd honestly be okay with that.

You walk around the mansion and at a certain point you find some kids that look cool and you go with them but when you look at the time it's very late and you're afraid that Pagan might be angry for not telling him you were going out and now you can't watch Scrubs with him because it's late so you decide to live in the woods and overthrow the government to make a law and rerun the episode as an half apology

I was confused, but when reading about it a day or so later I was amazed instead

I think it's refreshing to have a game in which you play the bad guys.

Obviously for political correctness reasons they can't have you playing some muslim terrorist trying to blow up white people, so they have to veil the whole thing by placing it in an exotic location and just having yellowy-brown people killing other yellowy-brown people.

Yeah, just wait. Mind you, the game ends afterwards.

Point is, it shows that Pagan actually as a good guy despite his eccentricies and typical villain expectations. Further proving that the rebels are the ones who do bad shit compared to him.

Though he's still trigger happy

not really, I mean he's not entirely normal and has your normal villainous cliches but he's not an attempt to rehash Vaas

Ajay simply took the same course of action that likely the average everyday person would.
First impressions matter a ton, and given the choice between seemingly friendly rebels and a psychotic bastard who just killed his own lackie in cold blood, a lot of people would be inclined to further themselves from the latter even if he knows well who you are.
Pagan trusted him enough to leave him alone in the dining room, but Ajay in his likely shaken state saw this as an opportunity to escape. Just human nature.
You ARE ultimately given a choice to make amends or kill him.
If you settle down and listen to him, you find out that he really wasn't as bad as you first thought and realize you're one in the same.
If you kill him, well then your father's genes are strong

tl;dr a protagonist isn't always an entirely rational person

>>272374125

Seeing as I haven't played the game yet it's probably best for me not to comment, but it also depends what tolerance you have for this sort of thing. Depends if it's a case of "Oh hey, this character's name looks like Anita and it's mentioned that she's a feminist, isn't that a weird easter egg for the Tumblr folks" or a case of "Now here's a 30 minute long speech about why social justice wars and hashtag fighting on the internet for minorities is the most important thing in the world even though it makes zero sense for me to talk about this when my entire country is burning in the flames of civil war and my parents have been gutted like fish before my very eyes by X ethnicity that I hate three days ago".

>>272367702
You really don't know what you are talking about don't you?
>A villian who is friendly to you from the start of the game and really doesn't do any harm to you at all is a shit tier villian
>A villian who fucks your shit up "end justifies the means" style because you were in the way or some shit and he has a goal which makes perfect sense is a god tier villian, because you can't really like him but you can agree with him

>Game actually paints the "muh freedom" rebels in a massivly worse light than the dictator all things considered, which is suprisingly fresh for a modern western game
>/v/ still complains about SJW forcing agenda in the game
Really, if you just stop hating for a moment, you'll see that this game is anything but that shit. The rebel leaders just parrot that shit while being utterly corrupt themselves. But apparently /v/ can't applaud Ubi for sticking the finger up SJW assholes while they ignorantly applaud Ubi for it, missing the point. Because cheering Ubi for subtly making rebels who today are always to be shown in a politically correct light is akin to fucking Satan these days. Okay.

The only thing that i find offputting is his voice.

Were you born with a genetic disorder that makes you communicate only in sarcastic remarks?
Do you really think having to suffer playing through a game with a shitty story is somehow innovative? Just because you're tired of having a clear idea of who is a bad guy, you think that being on the obviously wrong side is somehow refreshing and fulfilling? The reason why people don't mind fighting against the bad guys is because people enjoy being good. Being forced to make wrong choices is grating as best.

I guess it's significantly harder for the general opinion to backpedal and wonder wether or not a game that was being advertised by its writer as "something Social Justice people would enjoy" [which is weird considering the way the story goes unless he's somehow hilariously oblivious to the entire social justice war on the Internet, or has a very weird definition of social justice] doesn't pander to the Social Justice Army THAT much.

I suspect that that's a tactic that's going to get used more and more from now on, devs claiming that a game is about "social justice" merely to grab the attention of the folks that care for this sort of thing while keeping the game mostly neutral.

If /v/ doesn't wise up to it and take these things with a grain of salt it's going to be hilarious

This is the ALI213 crack for the Reloaded 1.3 patch. So install the reloaded patch, but don't use the reloaded crack.

If you have the previous ALI213 1.0 crack (the first version that was released days ago, then you will still be able to keep your save games.

If you're in for a more abstract form of what you're saying, any Grand Strategy game should be right up your alley, but Victoria 2 in particular, since the entire game is basically about controlling your population in the age of revolutions and the rise of communism.

And? Amita is crazy as fuck, dumb as fuck and no better than the rest of the rebel leadership's corrupted ways.

>>272375246
First off
>paying for FarCry 4

Second
Jesus Christ boy if you want a game where you can insert yourself into then play a fucking RPG.
Farcry has never let you insert yourself into the story. Furthermore Farcry has rarely been ABOUT the story. You play as an established character in an established story and that's it.
Not all games are supposed to cater to your exact way of thinking, but choices help take the story in alternate directions

>>272375527
well the writer tweeted that "people who hate social justice will hate this game" so I can only guess they're hopping on the bandwagon aswell

>>272367592
The Langrisser series and the Growlanser IV remake allows you to do this.

I wish more games would allow you to side with villains or topple the current villains and become the main villain.

Pagan said in this ending that you are basically giving away your country because he pulled you out of the bus to pass it to you but he suggests that you should kill Sabal/Amita.

>>272375831
Toppling villains to become the new villain is actually not that rare in classic RPG games. Knights of the old republic comes to mind for one, and so does NWN's expansion packs like mask of the betrayer.

gameplay is fun as fuck but not giving me a choice to skip the shit story is pissing me off

But our question is why do we even have that ending? Why is the main character so retarded that he joins up with terrorists and takes down the government and law for absolutely no reason, and he has no obligation to.

>>272368304
I'm a bit late to this but here is your answer:

The term "rebels" (and freedom figthers) has for a looong time had a positive connotation. The evil counterpart being "terrorist".

This doesn't come from vidya however, this is something formed by media and rhetorics of politicians.
E.g. some inter arabic conflicts are described, rebels or freedom fighters are the good guys, but when you just swap out the word with terrorist the whole thing is turned upside down.

Just by choosing which word you can predetermine on how people will react to it.

>>272375952

I fucking wish you could.
I sided with anita for dat puss which you don't even fucking get into, and let Sabal live. So what does he do? He just fucks off. I was expecting him to try and stop us. I wanted the game to end in a standoff between anita, sabal, and pagan and you're the only one with a gun
I wish ANY of the decisions you made actually mattered.

>>272375917
What good is a strong mind if one does not use it? I will not be silenced by the fools surrounding me.

It's a fucking game, the story can be whatever it wants to be. Isn't this the exact same argument everyone used against Anita, and now you're trying to claim that for some games, the story really is analyzable in a real world context?
Fuck you

>>272375449

Thank god, I'm so tired of black hats. Videogames are plagued by shallow villains. They keep doing bad stuff to show me how bad they are and it's a little boring. Hopefully someone makes the antagonist a hero soon; I don't want everyone too, I'd just like a little diversity.
