If Crysis 1 was a 9/10, Crysis 2 was a 4.5/10. |
I'd say FarCry just got different under Ubi...first CryTek's instalment, while having open(ish) levels, was structured with linear story, while Ubi's FCs are open world FPS games...I really can't call one approach better than the other, just different.
Tbh, I know lot of people who don't want to touch FC anymore with ten-foot pole after FC2, being completely dissapointed with switch to open-world design...I even spent time convincing some of them to try out FC3 (demonstrating it in few occasions too), but, for most of them, that switch to open-world is just not acceptable.
Obviosuly, FC now has new audience (along with some old), but I think CryTek maybe needs to get back to the roots, and revisit design of original FC (and in most part Crysis 1) in order to try to win back their original fans and differentiate themselves from current mix of highly linear on one side and open-world on the other FPS games.
