Interesting if true. All of their recent games seem to have been developed with keeping the player hooked for 100+ hours, so short and sweet sounds good to me.
AC Mirage and now this sound like a step in the right direction for me.

The clock could be set to about 150 hours so don’t get your hopes up.

It seems they're going for replay value what with the 24hr in game time and conditions for 100%.

A time limit in a game where most of the fun is in dicking around sounds bad.

They are going for a taken style approach. It's a good idea and could be excellent if they get it right.

Are they expecting me to waste time climbing towers and destroying outposts in that limited time?

Where else do you think the family members will be.

Time constraints belong in the 'Game mechanics that can get to fuck' thread. Hated it in dead rising and any other game revolving around one.
I'll keep an open mind but so far , just like FC6, I ain't bothered.

I could see limited time limits working in a rogue-lite game, with runs that only last an hour and you are supposed to repeat them (I'm sure there must be an example of something like that, but can't think of any). Not so much a game that is going to take 20+ hours and I'm probably only going to play once or twice.
Don't think it is necessarily a deal-breaker though and happy if they can prove me wrong.

Where else do you think the family members will be. You'll have about 200 family members (plus a few more if you get the DLC) and they will be dotted all around the map. It's a big family, and includes all your second cousins.

...This news doesn't make me feel anything. I think at this point they are institutionally incapable of making anything genuinely good or interesting.

Yeah the best of Far Cry for me is meticulously marking every guard in a base and then stealth-killing them one by one. Not sure that works if I’m against a clock.

Are they expecting me to waste time climbing towers and destroying outposts in that limited time? They might work it on a Majora's Mask / Deathloop approach. Where the clock resets after a day, but certain accomplishments persist. e.g. kit found, map cleared, outposts/towers liberated. Dunno, it might work...
