When I think about First-Person Shooter game, Battle field, Far cry and many more game came to my mind. But I choose to play Far cry because this was one of my favorite game series.
Far Cry 4 started in a very interesting way. Ajay Ghale comes to Kyrat to fulfill his mother's last wish. But things become dangerous very quickly. Before I could understand what was happening, there was an attack on the bus and everything changed.
Then Pagan Min arrived. His first appearance was really impressive. He looked calm, stylish, and dangerous at the same time. he took Ajay with him to his palace. The beginning of the game was full of mystery, and it made me curious about the story.
Pagan Min, the dictator of Kyrat arrives and takes Ajay to his palace. There they talk, it feels like Pagan Min knows Ajay's mother very well.
After Pagan Min leaves the room, Ajay decides to escape. During his escape, he sees that the Golden Path leader who was traveling with him is being tortured.
Before anything worse happens, Golden Path members come to rescue him, and a gunfight begins. Ajay escapes in a vehicle, but it is attacked and falls into a valley.
Ajay contacts Sabal, who asks him to reach a nearby tower. On his way, Ajay learns the basic gameplay mechanics, fights enemy soldiers, and uses stealth to survive. Finally, he reaches the tower, but enemy forces attack and destroy it before he can find safety.
My first impression of Kyrat was really good. The environment is beautiful and alive. The mountains, forests, and villages create a very natural atmosphere.
Pagan Min's palace also deserves a mention. It has a royal and luxurious look that perfectly matches his character. The game does a great job of showing both the beauty and danger of Kyrat.
The graphics still look very good, considering the game's age. The lighting, environment design, and small details make exploration enjoyable.
I even spent some time taking pictures with the in-game camera because some scenes looked amazing.
This episode teaches many important gameplay tricks in a simple way. I learned how to use guns, crouch, assassinate enemies, and throw rocks to distract them.
The feature that I really liked was the camera system. By using it, I could mark enemy locations before attacking. It made planning much easier and encouraged me to play more carefully.
Instead of running into combat, I chose to use stealth whenever possible. Taking down enemies through assassination felt very amazing. I think this playstyle will be very useful in future episodes as well.
My favorite moment from this episode is Pagan Min's introduction. His personality, royal style, and connection with Ajay's mother made him an important character.
I also enjoyed using the camera system and silently taking down enemies. It was fun.
Far Cry 4 had a very strong beginning. The story quickly caught my attention, the gameplay mechanics were enjoyable to learn, and Kyrat looks absolutely beautiful. I will rate it 8 out of 10.
