A lot of that is because the novelty is gone, and that the devs fell hard into the classic sequel trap. The mistaken idea that a sequel has to be bigger, more complex, etc.

Ryan Gosling got nominated for the same award America Ferrera did.

I mean, screaming “DEATH WISH” before shoving the forks in doesn’t really help in defining the content as “not suicidal”

What you just described is one of the reasons Far Cry 2 is considered the best entry in the series by many players. Yeah, compared to the total number of Far Cry fans, we’re a small minority, but accordingly we don’t get as many high-quality games designed in the way we crave.

I drive to work every day. I don’t pretend to think I know even 1% of how to make a car.
