I believe there are about a dozen outposts in the game, but the redundancy doesn't end there.
Once you liberate the outpost you get ethanol and some bonus if you don't set off alarms or aren't detected. Oh jeez, liberating outposts? I wonder where I've done that before. The main material to upgrade your main outpost, Prosperity, is ethanol. The entire game can really only be played one way, to be honest. I can use level two weapons on level three enemies but I will die and dump tons of ammo into them and I can't carry enough even with my full ammo perks. This is the stupidest system they could have done to try and make the game more interesting. The enemies are ranked and are only immune to weapons of that rank as well. The game is broken down into four different levels with the highest being an Elite rank. It's something that drove me insane through the entire game and I always hit a progress wall because I had to stop and grind for material to unlock the next weapon bench level which then unlocked the next weapon level but to craft those weapons I had to grind for different material. If you played that game nothing has changed here outside of a new ranking and looting system that is forced upon the player to even progress in the story. The entire game is basically Far Cry 5, but more post-apocalyptic this time around. These are the antagonists of the game, and while they have a great personality and hit that Far Cry villain meter just right, their screen time is cut down to just a few scenes. New Dawn is a direct sequel to Far Cry 5 in which you play as a nobody who has come across Hope County in it's isolated post-nuclear world of Montana on a train of survivors and get ambushed by the sisters Lou and Mickey.
Running around taking out the same outpost 50 times, collecting things, hunting animals, upgrading stuff - it's just so trite that I just don't care for it anymore, and Ubisoft is the worst offender out there. These games just keep getting larger and larger, but what you do inside has not evolved much. No longer does a large open world impress people these days as it's nothing new. I'd rather have a smaller area with more interesting things to do. Every Ubisoft open-world game has become so large that it's boring to explore. One of my biggest problems with Far Cry is that it's too big.
