i've never played a far cry game before 5 afaik, outside of maybe building an island or something once in like 2, or 3, years ago when i was playing at someone else's house on their copy . i never really had much interest in it (nothing against the series, i just . didn't . too busy playing fallout for the 30th time i suppose) . even with far cry 5, i didn't even really notice it until recently i suppose ? i ended up getting it on sale on steam and then just . spur of the moment randomly playing it back in january and i . fell in love lol .
i was originally drawn to it bc of the sort of redneck/country vibes, plus ofc a religious murder cult (those are two of my absolute favorite things in any sort of media lol) . but in all honesty the game far exceeded any expectations i had for it and i just . enjoyed it so tremendously . i love the characters, i love the environment, i love the music (both the in-game cult radio as well as the instrumental stuff), i just . love everything about it really . and i'm very grateful to have had it in my life for these past few months, to have had it to play during some really difficult moments .
along with the actual game itself, having a photo mode option for someone like me is just . incredibly amazing . fallout doesn't have that sort of thing, so i feel really spoiled now actually lol . going back to having to console command my ui away and having no free camera and no time change and so on .... it's gonna be rough . i've taken so many photos, and so many photos i love so much, and it's helped me build this account and find other fans and just share the love of the game with all of you, for which i am also incredibly grateful . thank you all for joining me here, and for all of your kind words and support . it means more to me than words can say .
i started playing the game about 2 months ago really and it's been truly wonderful ever since . i started march with a photoset on the first, and then another on the second, and another on the third . i didn't plan by any means to make a post a day, but i decided after a few days of daily posts, maybe i could make a personal goal to post once a day . then i realized on top of that, hey it's the anniversary month so why don't i celebrate it and really keep up with that post a day thing and now here we are, 27 days later and 27 posts later . i plan to finish the month out with a post a day as well for a total of 31 by the end of it all .
after that, we'll see what happens ! i'd like to continue posting screenshots for far cry 5 of course; after all, i'm always taking more photos lol . at this point i spend more time photographing hope county than i do actually doing anything of any real value there, but i wouldn't have it any other way really . however, i'd also like to include other games on this account (fallout 3, 4, and nv for sure . maybe rdr2 if i ever start it back up) . i also need to play new dawn (which i own and am just too busy playing fc5 to get to lmao), and i'd love to get fc6 + the joseph collapse dlc one day . so i guess expect photos from all of those games in the future as well as more content from fc5 !
along with that, i'd love to post artwork, links to my fics, and also interact more with other people's content and other people in general on here . but for the month of march, i just want to show my love and celebration for the game for its anniversary with a photoset every day . i'm thinking i might do the same next year, but we'll see . it'll be the five year anniversary for the fifth numbered far cry game so i feel like i have to be a little extra and over the top lol . i hope those of you who follow me now will stick around even with the sort of broadening of content, but if you don't, that's fine as well .
ANYWAY i'm done being all gooey and whatnot lol . i'll get a photoset set up for today in a little bit . thank you all for joining me here and sticking around; if you made it this far, know that i love you . if you didn't make it this far, know that i still love you .
