"Far Cry 5" is the latest entry in the "Far Cry" series and it is truly amazing. Ubisoft really hit it out of the park with this game. The graphics and the gameplay are extremely well done, but there were obviously sometimes where the game sort of made me angry, which we will get to.

Let's start off with the graphics, which are pretty phenomenal if I am being honest. While it is an old graphics engine that is definitely in need of an upgrade since there are no weather effects, there are sunny days and clear nights. That is it. No rain or anything. It is kind of sad because its such a beautiful game. My first time playing I was so excited to see rain, but it never came. There are also some small issues with pop in, such as when driving you could see trees disappear and then reappear and it is really weird for a 2018 game to have these issues. But other then the no rain and trees appearing and disappearing out of thin air, which are very small issues, I love the game.

The story is something that I have yet to finish since it is very time-consuming. There are 50 some odd missions for one area of the map alone, which is insane, I only did about 40 of the 50 but I finished all the important story missions and that took me about 2 weeks to finish it. It is really fun and interesting though, it follows a Deputy for Hope County, Montana and they are sent to arrest the leader of a cult that has taken over the town and they end up crashing. The deputy is tasked with taking out the cultists and dealing with the leaders who all are in charge of a different area of the map. I am very excited to finish the story mode! The character also doesn't speak, which is slightly annoying but I am fine with it. The character is also fully customize-able.

The cultists do get annoying, as they tend to ambush you at random times. You could be driving down the road and see a convoy of trucks and they will attack you and then more and more will come. You could spend 10 minutes fighting off the cult in the middle of a field which can get annoying when you are trying to complete a task. This is really the only complaint I have about the story thus far. This game is something that you have to check out! It is in stores now!
