In Far Cry 5, one user shares a funny story
A user on Reddit shares a story about a failed plan in Far Cry 5 that leads to all kinds of hilarious consequences, and the comments section is full of similar, unfortunate stories from other players.
The original post is titled ‘The Far Cry 5 character I’m most in love with,’ and it tells the story of a character that doesn’t quite seem to be in their right mind. The character’s plans often lead to disaster, and they just keep on going. The post starts with a beautiful image of the character face-planting the floor, but they get right back up and keep going.
“One day,” the character says, “I’ll get it right.” The user then goes on to describe a situation in which the character’s plan goes wrong, then another one, then another, and so on. The comments from other players are funny as well. Some sympathize with the character, saying they’ve been there multiple times. Others make jokes about the failed plans and the character’s brain damage.
Someone thought Tahiti would be less face-planty. Someone criticizes the game’s broken AI and time-wasting mechanics. There are funny comments and reactions, like laughter and “ouch!” And of course, there are users who enjoy the game despite the failed plans and call it a “juegazo” (Spanish for ‘amazing game’).
Despite the character’s repeated failures, they still have their fans. “I love this character,” one user comments. “They’re so sad but also so determined.” Another says, “I feel like I’ve done this before as well.” There’s a reference to a song lyric, “Pass the dutchie on the left hand side.” And another says, “I do this in every Open-world game.”
So if you’re planning a robbery, here’s a good spot for a coach robbery while distracting the targets:
And that, I think, is the point – no matter how ridiculous the plan is, no matter how many times it fails, some people will keep trying. And isn’t that the very essence of video games?
Here’s a comment expressing love for the game:
And that’s the whole thing, summed up in a single comment.
