Ubisoft, where has the passion for Far Cry development gone?
Does anyone else miss the good old times with Far cry, or is it just me? To be more specific i am talking about Far cry 1, 2 and 3 (and a little bit 4).
These 3 games were nothing like each other, they all had new features, new engines, new mechanics, different kind of story (great stories actually), different kind of DLCs, surprising side stories and easter eggs (at least Far Cry 3) and so on... these games.. so unique.
Then very surprisingly, you, Ubisoft, realease a "Far Cry 4", after 2 years since Far Cry 3's release, that was rather odd, seeming that between Far Cry 1 and 2, there was 4 year, and Far cry 2 and 3, 4 years...
Those 4 years obviously meant that you had alot of time to develop a fantastic game. While Far Cry 4 wasn't a bad game, it was definitly not as unique, actually it was mostly like playing Far Cry 3 again IMO. I think we all know why...
My point is, look at this:

From 4 years of development time, to 2 years of development time, to 1 year of development time now... and i believe that many people playing or having played Far Cry, like me, is not anymore exicted for new releases of this series, the games have become alike to each other and boring, it has actually reached a point where major flaws and bugs have not been fixed before release (specifically talking about Far Cry 5).

Why can you no longer make great games with 3+ years of development time? CLEARLY 2 years isn't enough for you, clearly, you need more time to rethink ideas and develop.
I am dissapointed in you.
