Sorry. As a long time FarCry fanboy this tickles me in all the wrong places. I hate the mechanics, the driving around, the pillaging, the harvesting... But I took them all in stride and didn't mind the constant stupidities that is the AI in this game... But when I realized that there is no path forward unless I become a poacher (frickin' wallet has a limit!) I dropped this game.

So there is no other way but to go around simply kill rhinos, leopards, eagles for no other reason but to have a holster, a bigger backpack and carry more items? Are you out of your mind? I don't care what stupid story you made up - that is simply idiotic. Poaching required! That's what should be in the title of this game.

I don't mind when they attack me. But I can sneak around them. I can see them. I don't have to kill them / I shouldn't have to kill them - what kind of an open world game is this?

Go learn game mechanics from Ghost Recon (the entire series, including the first ones), Just Cause 2 & 3 and even frickin' Watchdogs 1 & 2!

Or better yet, go back to FarCry 2. That was by far the best far cry in the entire series. I'm not sure where you folks are going with these series - but it's not working out for me.

I don't want to play Far Cry 5 either. Bring back proper gameplay and stop imitating real life - we don't care about real life. We are already living in it!
