Controversial Change in Far Cry 7
A new report about major changes that Ubisoft is planning for Far Cry 7 has fans worried. According to the claim, players’ families will be kidnapped by a cult and they will only have 24 real-world hours (72 in the game) to rescue them. Players who fail within this time will reportedly be presented with an “end of game” screen. Fans of the series fear that this time-limited mechanic will undermine Far Cry’s free-to-play nature.
Far Cry 7 and the Time-Limited Mechanics Debate
Players who enjoy side activities like open-world exploration, animal hunting, and base rescue in previous games in the series feel that this new time-limited system can make the game stressful. Many fans on Reddit have expressed that this change does not fit the spirit of Far Cry, while others have suggested that they may refuse to purchase the game. “I like exploring in Far Cry instead of the story. The idea of a time limit is a nightmare for me,” one user said.
However, there are also those who are happy with this change. Some fans who think that the series has been using the same gameplay formula for a long time find it positive that Ubisoft is trying something different. However, there are doubts about whether this new mechanism can be implemented successfully.
Although the famous game journalist Tom Henderson, who is the source of the report, stated that this information is reliable, Ubisoft has not made an official statement yet. If these claims are true, Far Cry 7 could be a game that radically changes the traditional gameplay structure of the series.
