Being able to scale cliffs, hunt and trap animals, and use ones environment as a weapon against enemies adds to the basics of first person shooting making for a fun adventure game on top of a slick FPS.
Cons
Con VR support is experimental
VR is not guaranteed to work. It may crash or have visual bugs.
Con VR may cause nausea
There are some sensory information mismatch issues created by the in-game characters movements and players stationary position as well as the sheer speed of the gameplay that can easily induce nausea.
Con Environment feels too familiar
While Farcry 1-3 all had different locales that had their own styles, 4 looks much like 3 and is not that much of a departure. For those looking for a different experience it is not going to be found in 4 sadly.
