    Thanks for saving me the cost of a season pass

    I absolutely loved Far Cry 5 until I finished it. Really? Everything you do in the game is absolutely pointless and you lose no matter what?

    Why in the world would I buy DLC after this insulting garbage? This will be the last Far Cry game I ever buy without finding out if there is an ending you can win first. I love the mechanics. I loved the set. I loved the story...until the end.

    Way to snatch absolute abject defeat out of the jaws of victory.

    Color me an absolute hater of all things Ubisoft until your writers stop insulting us with no-win scenarios. If I can’t win, why should I even buy your game?

    It's not about that, the story is bad all-around for me; for example in Far Cry 2 you don't win either but it's a far more credible plot.

    You could win in FC4. FC3 had “pick the lesser of two evils” ending. It kinda sucked, but I could live with it.

    This one? No. I seriously went from, I am LOVING THIS GAME, to WTF, to I hate this game, I hate Ubisoft, and I am so pissed off I don’t want to buy another one of their games again.

    That’s how angry I am at this.

    Reminds me of how I felt after watching the last Star Wars film. Apparently hope is something we're not supposed to have in this day and age and unless it's a downer it's just not edgy enough to be cool.

    On the plus side, at least you didn't buy the 'Gold' edition.

    Why isn't Ubisoft policing all the spoilers being posted in general discussion? The Ac Origins forum had a dedicated spoiler section.

    The two bad endings were WIDELY panned by us fans though (not as bad as that other great Canadian series--Mass Effect. There we spent three whole games saving the galaxy; only to enjoy having it destroyed in the end!) looks like someone at Ubi has a short memory, or just felt like giving all of us the finger.

    There is no spoiler here. I didn’t go into the endings other than the fact that you lose. And if you didn’t know that, I may have saved you the same level of aggravation that I had. You’re welcome.

    Maybe they are and they don’t see any spoilers in what I wrote. I didn’t discuss the specifics of the ending at all, and without the barest of general mentions that you lose no matter what, said nothing else about the story line.

    My post makes no sense if that isn’t included.
