    The story is intriguing as you develop the main character, but in the end it's the same Western world bullshit. A college-aged white kid fulfills his destiny during his self-discovery, meanwhile saving the native savages from numerous trifling and major problems they cannot handle themselves.
    I'm also playing FC3, and i really like it but it's so annoying how this spoiled douche you play as (Jason) is pretty much a master of any and all weapons as soon as he gets his hands on em, and also has the stealth skills of a damn ninja without any training.

    I enjoyed it a ton at first but the more "trippy/spiritual" the plot and missions got the less i enjoyed it.
    I've just arrived on the second island and getting a tad bored to be honest.

    Mind you, just landing on the island itself was a tremendous damn pain in the ass, because the piece of shit wingsuit thing fucked up the fov or something so massively it's insane, it was borderline impossible to hit the targetzone, and when i did it was like a 80% chance of failing because the parachute refused to deploy no matter how much i spammed or held down the fucking button.

    Still, aside from some issues the game is pretty damn fun.

    I really have to add this aswell: Vaas might be one of the best villains, and just characters in general, that i've seen in ages. That dude is fucking excellent, i love every little bit of his insanity!

    Yeah you do get too powerful too easily. I set it to the hardest difficulty and it is still too easy. I think it made them detect you more readily, it didn't make them any harder to kill or any greater in number. I think it's the same reason I got tired of Borderlands 2... it stopped being challenging too quick.

    I had the same problem with the wingsuit and the parachute deployment, but finally got it to work and landed ok.

    Vaas was cool, but his death sequence was blah.


    For God will not permit that we shall know what is to come... those who by some sorcery or by some dream might come to pierce the veil that lies so darkly over all that is before them may serve by just that vision to cause that God should wrench the world from its heading and set it upon another course altogether and then where stands the sorcerer? Where the dreamer and his dream?
