Yeah, there’s all that fun open gameplay and watching pirates get jumped by a tiger, but the draw is also in the Rook Islands and what it does to the player, Jason Brody. The island is as much of a villain as Vaas is, helping Jason shed his doughy privileged rich kid skin to become a guy willing to run over animals and gut dudes without blinking an eye. Vaas tortures Jason’s mind and the island tortures his body, turning the game from sandbox mayhem to survival horror.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The appeal in the gameplay comes less from the combat and admittedly simplistic stealth design, and more from how the game allows you to play however you wish. You could go in guns blazing with an LMG and rocket launcher to free the outpost and gain a new piece of territory. Alternatively, you could snipe everyone in sight with a silenced sniper rifle and release a deadly tiger from a cage to do your dirty work. Or hell, just wingsuit into the outpost and slice everyone’s necks open before they know what hit them. Far Cry 3 doesn’t do a whole lot to revolutionize the open world genre, but it sure as hell knows how to give players incentive to use what’s presented before them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
