Apparently one of the main writers from Bioshock is penning the main story for this. So that's something.
It looks fun. I definitely feel like this game was being developed pre-2016/2017 US political/social climate, and it conveniently lined up for release. Which has the potential to hurt or help Ubisoft massively. We'll see. Either way, looks like a fun enough game. They seem to be embracing the action movie gameplay a bit more, which seems to be where FC thrives best.
Now I expect a Blood Dragon 2 about defending America from invading commies DLC soon. With coop Schwarzenegger and Stallone characters.
