> Calls US Navy > US Army arrives [sp]10/10 video though, that tiger wrecked those pirates pretty hard.[/sp]
Why can't they let the white man open-carry and steal cars in peace?
Seeing people get squeamish whenever a FarCry character has to fix their dislocated body parts is always great.
[QUOTE=The_J_Hat;51954388]Seeing people get squeamish whenever a FarCry character has to fix their dislocated body parts is always great.[/QUOTE] Watching people react to anything squeamish in a movie or video game always makes me laugh.
He completely missed the point of the game, but it's okay. [editline]13th March 2017[/editline] About 'calling the navy instead of fighting all the pirates single-handedly'

[QUOTE=SEKCobra;51955321]It's a joke and he executed it hilariously.[/QUOTE] I know it's a joke. But he was taking it a bit too seriously to look like he knows what the game is really about.
That intro seems more like something Cyanide would do.
[QUOTE=Loadingue;51955361]I know it's a joke. But he was taking it a bit too seriously to look like he knows what the game is really about.[/QUOTE] What, Misogyny? (The actual writer of the game said that's what it's about btw)
Bird,BIRD *Grazed* Whoa,that's one resilient bird holy shit
Top-tier video editing, damn.
[QUOTE=SpartanXC9;51955466]What, Misogyny? (The actual writer of the game said that's what it's about btw)[/QUOTE] Wait, what?
[QUOTE=Loadingue;51955361]I know it's a joke. But he was taking it a bit too seriously to look like he knows what the game is really about.[/QUOTE] I think you're taking it a bit too seriously yourself, friendo.
[QUOTE=kilerabv;51955943]Wait, what?[/QUOTE] There was an interview with the lead writer of Far Cry 3 with PC gamer or RPS and yeah
[QUOTE=SpartanXC9;51956323]There was an interview with the lead writer of Far Cry 3 with PC gamer or RPS and yeah[/QUOTE] Weird, I'd have thought it had something to do with PTSD and how the main character basically becomes super fucked up in the end and decides to stay on the island because killing, surviving, everything he's had to do on that island to save the people he cared about, it's a thing that's become a part of him. What exactly makes anything in Far Cry 3 resemble misogyny exactly? Like I understand he wrote it, but I didn't really find a hint of any sort of misogyny to say that is the main focus.
[QUOTE=SpartanXC9;51956323]There was an interview with the lead writer of Far Cry 3 with PC gamer or RPS and yeah[/QUOTE] [url=http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2012-12-18-far-cry-3s-writer-argues-critics-largely-missed-the-point-of-the-game]According to one interview with the writer,[/url] not sure if it's the main one or not that you're referring to, it's not that the game is about misogyny. It's about the fact that Jason being some mighty whitey savior and hero is a complete farce and turns out to be subversion of expectations due to how fucked up he gets over the course of the story, and the fact that [sp]you die if you side with Citra and kill your friends being a method of telling the player that trying to "save the hot princess"[/sp] is the player being a "misogynistic idiot." He also blames people for only half-listening to the plot and not understanding his attempts at the deeper parts of the story. Which is kind of hard to do when the plot is kind of all over the place and scattered about a game that has you running around killing tons of people and animals for hours on end.
I just realized the plot of FC3 makes no fucking sense
[QUOTE=Zeos;51956766]I just realized the plot of FC3 makes no fucking sense[/QUOTE] Isn't that the point? It's not the best plot, but the game does feel like some absurd fever dream. edit: I mean in a good way.

[QUOTE=SpartanXC9;51955466]What, Misogyny? (The actual writer of the game said that's what it's about btw)[/QUOTE] No, no no no... Being a hero. You know, the typical American kid going to a remote island to find some "adventure" but ending up having a power trip, born from his desire to be a hero and live a fantasy life. It's basically like an upbeat Heart of Darkness. [QUOTE=DeVotchKa;51956203]I think you're taking it a bit too seriously yourself, friendo.[/QUOTE] Hey I enjoyed the video, don't get me wrong, but it bothers me when he says "haha this is so ridiculous why doesn't he do this" since that's the whole point of the game.

That's what you understood it to be, and boy are you wrong, just ask the writer! And the point of the game is to fuck around. Well, that's just my opinion but oh well.
[QUOTE=Jojje;51957507][media]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=enb0zWbYUik[/media] If any of your friends are like this, send them this video[/QUOTE] FC2 still has the best injured healing animations out of the entire series so far.

That's so obviously the point of the game, I don't see how you could just ignore it and say "duh, it's obviously about fucking around". This is not even me over-analyzing, it's just you not analyzing the game at all (no offense). [editline]14th March 2017[/editline] Anyway, it doesn't really matter. It's only an assumption to say whether SovietWomble got that or not.
[QUOTE=OlegFreeman;51957374]Isn't that the point? It's not the best plot, but the game does feel like some absurd fever dream. edit: I mean in a good way.[/QUOTE] If that was what they were trying to go for, I think they messed up. Plot hook and body count are absurd by any realistic standards but as far as videogames go it's completely run-of-the-mill, and neither clearing outposts of a handful of mooks nor hunting animals were psychedelic experiences by any stretch. Blood Dragon's funky colors alone made it feel way more trippy than anything in FC3.
[QUOTE=Zeos;51956766]I just realized the plot of FC3 makes no fucking sense[/QUOTE] The idea behind Far Cry 3 is multiple deconstructions of the concepts and how nothing is making fucking sense throughout the entire game. Just take a read around [url=http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/VideoGame/FarCry3]TVTropes page[/url] for it to see how people point out what a fucking loon of a ride this is. On-topic, I didn't like the video at all. I like more of his interactions with Cyanide and co., this felt really unfunny compared to rest of his vids imo.
[QUOTE=Zeos;51956766]I just realized the plot of FC3 makes no fucking sense[/QUOTE] Well it was completely changed seemingly right before launch.
