And I'm not claiming that with hindsight - I wrote it all down last May. I'd assumed, before the game came out, that they'd serve up a god-awful confusion of half-baked ideas about cults and American militias, and prevaricate and ultimately chicken out of trying to make any form of statement of any nature. I didn't expect Far Cry 5's story to be good. Although believe me, if you've not finished it and read this anyway, you'll only feel more compelled to play it to see if I'm exaggerating. Just in case, let me reiterate, this is an article that contains spoilers to the very end of the game. It is time to drape yourself in spoiler warnings and embrace the volcano of awful that is Far Cry 5's ending. And wow, does it reach its subterranean nadir when it comes to the finish. Not just in how it so idiotically interrupts you in the middle of other scripted missions to force you to play through hideously badly written enforced semi-playable cutscenes, but in every word uttered by every character from start to finish. It is, by a considerable stretch, the most abysmally written narrative in AAA gaming. Far Cry 5 has a bad story in the same way that the bubonic plague has a bad bacterium.
