The game's story is generally well-received, with players appreciating the engaging single-player campaign and its 80s action movie vibe, particularly in the Blood Dragon expansion. However, some feel that the silent protagonist detracts from fully experiencing the narrative. Overall, the story is described as action-packed and intriguing, providing a fun experience for players.
“The story was great, and I enjoyed the single-player campaign a lot. I did not try the multiplayer, considering this game has been out so long; I wasn't sure how many people still play it.”
“Action, intrigue, good storyline!”
“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 while it captures that 80s action movie feel well, it definitely does not have as in-depth a story as Far Cry 3.”
