I wish I could say more but after a couple of hours I had to tap out and I will try to refund this one (wish me luck, I went over the 2 hours).

The reason? Well firstly the game itself is pretty tedious, standard Ubisoft fare, which I often don't mind but the awful voice acting in the opening scenes had me skipping into the game play as fast as I could and well, it just isn't doing it for me. The characters are so lame and plastic there is just no way to relate to them for me personally. Even if I don't relate to a character in a game, I can still appreciate a quirky character but these are all just 'safe' and soulless.

Second is the performance, now the game world does look quite nice but not so much to justify the performance. I have a high end PC but I was struggling to get a decent enough FPS to make this enjoyable for me. I hate to think how miserable the experience is for people with mid-low end PC's!

I am not thumbing this down to hate on Ubisoft, as everyone loves to do at present, as I can fully acknowledge I have loved the classic switch your brain off and clear some towers and travel to a waypoint style of play. But this one just didn't strike a chord with me at all and trying to enjoy it with lagging FPS makes for a real miserable slog I am not keen on

At 50 % progression the game now tells me that I may only continue my save game if I buy the DLC. Ubi possibly the shadiest AAA in the world? F these bastards.

This is a pretty decent Far Cry game. By far the worst thing about it is that it's also an Avatar game. But if you just skip through all the cutscenes and pretend it's a sequel to Primal, it gets the job done.
