Forums - Gaming Discussion - Far Cry 4 Hoping To Avoid PETA Controversy, Says Developer

Madword on 02 September 2014

I worry about all these angry organisations complaining about none issues...bloody stupid if you ask me.

I killed a shark in FC3... I also skydived, robbed banks, rode a horse and done a multitude of other things that I would not do in real life... ITS NOT REAL!!!

I think this is more of an issue that would concern PETDA (People for Ethical Treatment of Digital Animals).

What's next? Greenpeace protesting cutting down trees in Minecraft, creating characters to invade your game and chain themselves to digital trees?

What about all the humans you can kill? People are going to grip about that, better dial that back also. It seems so silly that they are worried about what people are going to think about killing animals but not humans. Its a game, its art, just make a game you want to make.

Have you no knowledge how animal activists are? They wouldn't even mind killing people if it meant 'saving' a seal!


Right.PETA is a good cause but most of its members are lunatics and take things to far.

Has PETA ever complained about games before? I mean really complained, not made some insane allegory for promo reasons.

What is this? Some PR stunt to show how realistic the game is? I googled around and have not found any original article where PETA actually criticize Far Cry. Anyone got a link?

Can't they tell it's not real? It's a video game. Fucking idiots!

Also, hunting was useful in Far Cry 3. Can't wait to ride the elephant in Far Cry 4, looks fun

They've condemned ACVI and Far Cry 2 in the past..

Try telling PETA that. They'll eat you up alive.
