It's clear why Far Cry 3 became the blueprint for what the open world genre would become, even to the modern day. It may be missing some of the quality of life features we see in modern open world games, but even to this day, over 12 years after its release, Far Cry 3 remains a fantastic time and something I recommend all open world fans play. Far Cry 3 above all else feels authentic and its clear the developers had a great time making this game. The story is wild and crazy, the characters are full of life, the open world is vast and fun to traverse, and the game isn't afraid to get weird. REALLY weird. Overall a fantastic time, even 12 years later.

The best Far Cry so far, the game really feels nostalgic considering the great performance in plot and the game design had back in 2012. When ubisoft really cared to make good games.

"Did I ever tell you the definition of insanity? Insanity is doing the exact same fucking thing over and over again, expecting shit to change. That is crazy. But the first time somebody told me that, I don't know, I thought they were bullshitting me so, boom, I shot him. The thing is, okay... he was right. And then I started to see it everywhere I looked. Everywhere i looked, all these fucking pricks, everywhere I looked, doing the exact same fucking thing, over and over and over and over and over again. Thinking "this time its gonna be different. No, no ,no please! This time, its gonna be different." I am sorry, I don't like the way you are looking at me! Okay? You have a fucking problem in your head? Do you think I'm bullshitting you? Do you think I am lying? Fuck you! Okay, fuck you! It's okay, man. I'm gonna chill, hermano. I'm gonna chill. The thing is... All right. The thing is, I killed you once already. And it's not like I am fucking crazy. It's okay. It's like water under the bridge. Did I ever tell you the definition of insanity?" - A very respectable Island Owner

The game that taught us the definition of Insanity. Ubisoft is still trying to recreate this game in the Far Cry franchise and failing. Its not without its flaws but it has lot to offer, great ludo-narrative cohesion and a bucket full of great ideas. In retrospect the issues I had with this game pale in comparison to the bad decisions Ubi has made in following installments.
