All of the games are unrelated to each other, they just share similar game engines (with obvious upgrades). Honestly Far Cry 2 is a bit of a slog to get through because you have to constantly stop and clear out checkpoints along the road which makes getting anywhere a pain in the ass. There's also really no story to speak of and no real characters, just people doing stuff. There's some impressive technology on display and some real effort went into making an accurate depiction of Africa and I did like the mature ending as well as some of the philosophical statements and parallels made, but the gameplay is just kind of... ass.

Anyways I had to create a new Skyrim character because... I did something and deleted all my save files. Good bye Mr. Mostlymittens, Arwyn, and Arthur, and say hello to Arthena.
