Users generally find the story well-written, immersive, and engaging, with memorable characters and unique elements that enhance the overall experience, especially in sci-fi and survival games. However, some note repetitive or poorly paced missions, occasional forced progressions, and a lack of variety or depth in certain storylines, which can detract from immersion. Overall, the story is praised for strong world-building and emotional impact but sometimes criticized for design flaws and inconsistencies.
- “That being said, I would easily refer to it as a must play for anyone who enjoys plot driven sci-fi themed survival games, because this one does a phenomenal job at storytelling and world building.”
- “Farcry 5 offers one of the best storylines out there, amazing gameplay and visual effects, wonderful characters, amazing soundtrack, and hilarious side missions.”
- “The story hits surprisingly deep too—equal parts dark, funny, and weirdly emotional. 36 hours later, I’ve saved Montana, tamed a bear, and lost count of how many helicopters I “accidentally” crashed.”
- “There are no quests, there kind of is a story to follow, but no guides at all.”
- “Very good game, beautiful, quite populated world, but I missed the variety of missions. It seems like I'm always invading the same place and just killing enemies. Ubisoft knows how to make a good map with beautiful locations and lush graphics, but it always makes mistakes throughout the story. I feel like I'm in a loop doing the same missions. If you enjoy a well-paced story and diverse missions, Far Cry 5 is not a game for you.”
- “Go to a place, kill a camp, loot something nearby, accept and do a fetch quest, get a random unskippable cutscene, repeat ad nauseam. Finally: the story is just meh.”

Overall, the gameplay is considered good to very good, often easy to learn but hard to master, with room for improvement in polish and variety.
- “The building mechanics, style, setting, and open-endedness make it one of my top games of all time.”
- “After playing more of the game and seeing the effort they put into accessibility and customization of gameplay experience, I can wholeheartedly say any small bugs or irritations with the combat system are completely forgiven.”
- “I’ve played this game since it first came out on Xbox; it’s a good game with lots of interesting mechanics and decent replayability.”
- “The actual gameplay challenges and survival aspects are initially locked behind the fact that the game doesn't explain its own controls or basic mechanics, many of which are unintuitive enough that you'd best be prepared to stop every five minutes and look up things like 'long dark how to pick up snow' on internet message boards.”
- “Gets boring after 3 or 4 hours, too much minor annoying mechanics which, because of the amount happen too often.”
- “It just sucks that the gameplay isn't fun in the slightest.”

- “Just wish there was a gauge or some indicator on the map that would show you where the atmosphere and oceans are not 100% cleaned.”

Grinding in this game offers extensive building, crafting, farming, and exploring opportunities that provide a sense of accomplishment, but many users find the grind tedious, repetitive, and sometimes excessive.

- “Stopped at plains because the game gets extremely grindy for no reason.”
- “Very much like Planet Crafter but much more grindy and more precise in placements.”
