This is the most encouraging news I have heard about FC4

"With Far Cry 3 we were really heavily focused on the cutscenes and the main missions," says Thompson, "and there was way less focus put on the open world." He estimates that for Far Cry 3 the split was around 85 / 15, whereas as now it's closer to 50 / 50

That is a bit more encouraging. Maybe the devs did learn a thing or two.

I'm not getting my hopes up too high, but I do think there may be some fun to be had in the game. There was in FC3, just not as much nor as involving as in FC2. And you had to get through too many scripts and cutscenes to get to it.

The proof of the pudding will, as they used to say, be in the eating.

Indeed.  I'd rent a Netflix movie rather than have to suffer through a cut scene
