So if you're a Far Cry fan, odds are you'll enjoy the game just for the gameplay loop.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
82 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Gunplay feels good, stealth is fun, explosions are satisfying, and once you start unlocking better weapons, supremos, and upgrades, combat becomes seriously addictive.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
42 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Tons of PC specific options to tweak graphics and other visuals to ones liking.
Co-op
Players who bring up Co-op mostly praise it.
28 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
I finished the Far Cry 6 campaign in co-op with a friend, and overall, it was a pretty satisfying experience—but also a very Far Cry one, with all the good and bad that comes with it.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
11 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The soundtrack for the Vaas DLC, especially the mashup between Brian Tyler's *I'm Sorry* and Will Bates' *Birthright* is pure bliss.
Characters
Players who bring up Characters mostly praise it.
8 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Kim Kitsuragi from Disco Elysium is an awesome character, and is far more concerned with being a good detective than being a homosexual (in a game about being a detective, imagine!) despite being both of those things.
