The game's story is generally well-received, with players enjoying the engaging single-player campaign and its action-packed narrative reminiscent of 80s action movies. However, some feel that the lack of a speaking protagonist detracts from fully experiencing the story. While the main storyline is praised, spin-offs like Blood Dragon are noted for having less depth compared to the main series.
“The story was great and I enjoyed the single player campaign a lot.”
“Action, intrigue, good story line!”
“It's got a good story line and we both have fun when he plays!”
“I probably put in almost 20 hours and I only did the first main mission; the game has so much to do and you will want to overstay your welcome in this hellhole.”
“Just like in the newer games, the character never speaks, which feels like a huge barrier to fully experiencing the story.”
“I played through a bit of Blood Dragon, and I think they capture that 80s action movie feel well, but it definitely was not as in-depth a story as Far Cry 3.”
