    3rd person cutscenes in far Cry 6?!

    Our player character, Dani Rojas, is a voiced protagonist, who can either be male or female (similar to AC Valhalla's Eivor.) and fully customizable, with third person cutscenes. We finally get some more character in our protagonist, rather than an empty husk like the Deputy and the Captain.

    So, now, instead of immersive and unique firsp-person cutscenes, Far Cry will have same third-person cutscenes as in Assassin's Creed, Ghost Recon, Division, Watch Dogs or Splinter Cell games? I don't get it: why remove immersion and interesting feature from Far Cry game and make it more like games from other series? Also, I really hate when first- and third-person perspective is switching. For example, in Bad Company 2 it was quite annoying when perspective was changung each other for a few times in a level.

    Overall, if cutscenes is 3rd person now - this is a very bad news for me. I loved this series for immersion when in cutscenes characters was talking to "me" or interact with "me".

    That reddit post doesn't have a source. You shouldn't consider speculations and guesses as confirmations. It's better to have information straight from Ubisoft themselves.

    all the games you listed are already third person games

    now the cutscene are more like cutscene in halo games this is different than in past and i also liked how the game used to always be in first person but now that they have custom characters and outfits to buy they want to give more reason for it so they want us to see our characters

    I think what’s exciting for us is that you’re going to be able to see Dani in the third person, in cinematics and other elements of the game, and during that it became almost a necessity to have a fully voiced and performance captured character.
    So, looks like it is not only cutscenes.

    Well, looks like Far Cry is going the same direction.

    I guess seeing your character after liberating an outpost in New Dawn was a sign.

    Also same perspective was in New Dawn when character entered city. Well, now they should just put in this game tiered loot/enemies from New Dawn and its butchered dow Guns for Hire system with no 2 AI teammates and no ability to hire random NPC - and then I can skip that game. My wallet will be happy.

    Also, why we still don't have separate section for Far Cry 6 discussions on this forum?
