Farcry 3 was my first foray into the series. I thought the story was contrived but the gameplay was fun enough. I enjoyed doing stealthy captures with the bow.

The game itself is...fine. Mechanically it's nothing to write home about but does the job well enough. A solid 7/10 game. But following 2 it's a fucking travesty. They set out, with 2, to make a game that set the benchmark for systemic interaction the way that Crysis set the benchmark for graphics. Then they decided that was way too hard so they chopped all of it out for the sequel, except for the scaled back fire propagation. And in the 15 years since 2 came out we still have not gotten a game that touches what it does. Instead we got the open world slurry of today which Farcry 3 was one of the biggest founders of.
