Far Cry 5 – 15 Things You Need To Know Before You Buy

RESISTANCE POINTS

Far Cry 5 is making an extra effort to integrate side quests and main quests into the game more seamlessly, and it’s going to do that mainly through the mechanic of Resistance Points. Basically, different regions of Hope’s County are controlled by a leader each, who serve as the big bads of the game (though not the big bad). Completing activities, side quests and story missions will all earn you Resistance Points (though some activities and quests, such as the main story missions, will obviously reward more points than others), and once you have enough Resistance Points, you’ll finally draw the attention of the the relevant leader and lure them out to meet you head on. Essentially, no matter what you do in the game, you’ll always be building towards the end goal.
