In Far Cry 5 the fictional story of a dangerous cult contains aspects of real events, as desolate countrysides were at times a breeding ground for various gangs. Far Cry 5 created many expectations following the success of Far Cry 3 and Far Cry 4. It is set in Hope County Montana, but your first troubling experiences will be in the role of an FBI agent.
The cult leader Joseph Seed is running a group called the Project at Eden’s Gate. Under the cover of religion, he preaches violence. He is facing charges of kidnapping but claims that God will save him. The group managed to control the entire area, including the police and the press. He escapes the police with the help of his followers. His brother is able to condition members psychologically to the extent that he is can trigger in them an uncontrollable rage. Another member called Faith is able to put others in a trance-like state with a gas that can also lead to permanent mental instability. Cult members also control separate parts of the area. They are uncontrollable and unpredictable, but Joseph Seeds will do anything for his cult to survive.
The main appeal of Far Cry 5 are great views. The game has certain similarities to its previous versions, including its non-linear story. The player needs to get to the leader of the sect, Joseph Seed and combat obstacles on the way. You will need the help of other residents of the county to do that, but they turn up to be not helpful at all. There is a great choice in weapons although it is easier to get through the environment in this game.
The controversial subject of the dangerous Christian cult may not be acceptable for everybody. Also, relying on a similar approach may not always work out as well as the previous games in the series.
If you liked the previous versions of Far Cry you will definitely enjoy Far Cry 5 as well. Here are only a few modifications such as lack of map and instead, there is only a compass or visual aids. Your progress in Far Cry 5 is also not dependent on activities such as hunting.
The main goal of missions is escaping the traps when discovering Hope County while fighting the murderous cult.
