I remember that the initial levels of Far Cry 1 were amazing jungle/beach scenarios that enabled a lot of different strategies for overcoming the smart human enemies.
The last levels, however, were all inside claustrophobic buildings with weird monsters running around.
If all levels had the feeling of the first ones, it would be my favorite game of all time.
- iforgotpassword 3y agoI agree. Wasn't it zombies? The first levels set a great feeling and atmosphere, everything was mysterious, and then it felt like they ran out of ideas and were like "hm yeah let's add zombies, because that's not totally something overused". And yes, I don't even remember the later levels and didn't even finish the game.
- lelanthran 3y agoNot zombies, I remember mutants. Dr Evil[1] created mutants from people, etc, etc [1] I don't remember the name. It was so long ago that it was when I first got married, the first time!
- leokennis 3y agoThe demo was the first level in the bay. I think after 100 playthroughs there were like 5 different strategies to clear that level, all equally fun and effective. And indeed at the end you were just pumping 500 rounds into unstoppable Doom-style monster deep inside some dark hallway.
- KiwiJohnno 3y agoAgreed. I had amazing fun playing the first bits of Far Cry 1, sneaking through the jungle and playing sniper. It was great. Then I got to the end part, inside dark buildings and suddenly stealth isn't important at all, its more of a twitch shooter full of jump scares and requiring fast reactions over anything. I never finished the game
- bartislartfast 3y agoThose early levels where you fight against humans in a tropical setting were the best part. Every Far Cry game that came after, emulated those first levels, and scrapped not monsters in hallways.
