500+ hours on PS4. 78 hours on Steam. More than 20 playthroughs. Some casual, some challenge runs, some speedruns. Far Cry 5 is one of those rare games that I never really stopped coming back to. A lot of people talk about Joseph Seed when discussing Far Cry 5, and for good reason, but what keeps me returning isn't just the villains. It's Hope County itself. Ubisoft created one of the most memorable open worlds I've ever explored. The forests, rivers, mountains, farms, backroads, and small towns make Hope County feel like a real place rather than just another open-world map. Even after dozens of playthroughs, I still find myself wandering off to hunt, fish, fly around in a plane, or simply drive through the countryside listening to the radio. The setting remains one of the strongest parts of the game. The gameplay is classic Far Cry at its best. It's chaotic, unpredictable, and sometimes completely ridiculous. One minute you're quietly clearing an outpost, the next you're being attacked by a bear while a cult convoy crashes into a fuel truck and your companion somehow turns the entire situation into a war crime. Those unscripted moments never get old. The hunting and fishing deserve more credit, too. They're simple mechanics, but they fit perfectly into the atmosphere. Some of my favorite memories aren't story missions at all—they're just spending time in the wilderness, fishing by a lake or tracking animals through the woods before heading back to fight cultists. Speaking of the cult, Project at Eden's Gate is still one of my favorite factions in gaming. The Seeds are memorable, but what really stands out is how believable the cult feels. The sermons, the propaganda, the music, and the constant presence of Eden's Gate throughout the county create an atmosphere that few games manage to achieve. Hope County genuinely feels occupied. The cult isn't just an enemy faction; it's part of the world's identity. And then there's the music. "We Will Rise Again" and "Help Me Faith" are still among my favorite tracks in any video game soundtrack. The cult choir songs are beautiful, unsettling, and strangely catchy at the same time. Years later, I still find myself listening to them outside the game. Very few soundtracks become this closely tied to a game's identity, but Far Cry 5's absolutely does. Is the game perfect? No. Some story moments can be frustrating, and the forced captures are still controversial. But despite its flaws, Far Cry 5 has something that many technically better games don't: a personality that sticks with you. I've played through it more than 20 times, and every time I leave Hope County, I eventually find myself coming back. For me, that's the highest compliment I can give a game. 9.5/10 Only You...

The game tells you to save Hope County from a dangerous doomsday cult, but I spent 40 hours fly fishing while a diabetic bear named Cheeseburger ate my enemies. 10/10 Bass Pro Shops Simulator

We all know Ubisoft is just an evil company at this point but we can't deny this banger game they created Far Cry 5 delivers a satisfying mix of open-world chaos, solid gunplay, and a surprisingly engaging setting in rural Montana. The freedom to approach missions your way — whether stealthily or loud and explosive — makes every encounter feel dynamic, and the world is packed with enough side activities to keep things fresh. The story leans into its cult theme with some memorable moments, and while it doesn’t always hit the emotional highs it aims for, the overall experience is fun, polished, and easy to recommend for fans of sandbox action games.
