In hindsight, they should have pushed it off to December, or even early 2015. No wonder Ubisoft delayed the game’s release from October. Plus, it shipped with bugs, a glitchy navigation system and a tendency to stutter in game-impacting ways when fighting amongst the game’s ballyhooed masses. Far Cry 4 throws a spanner into the narrative that Ubisoft lost its mojo this year, by which I mean the Assassin’s Creed Unity debacle, though “debacle” probably overstates the issue.Ī quick word about Unity: It’s not a bad game, it’s just not the series-upending shift we were led to expect.
