I agree with Herzalot: the game does suffer from awful repetition. A large number of quests are exactly the same (deliver passports, destroy convoy, etc). There is a somewhat badly executed overarching storyline which, when you can figure out what is going on, is rather good. Graphics are laptop-meltingly superb, despite the dull brown colour scheme. Enemy AI is passable, with flanking manoeuvres and use of vehicles, although their hearing is annoyingly good. For all it's faults, FC2 is light years better than FC1, which I honestly couldn't play for more than a single dull hour. Best game to compare it to in my experience would be the Stalker franchise, which definitely had more depth and variety. FC2 manages a more earthy, realistic environment. Nothing can compare to the joy of whizzing over the dunes in a buggy chasing zebra, or stalking a thug in the long grass. Good value at $9.99!

Great game that was ahead of it's time

I will never forget the story and adventure this game took me on back when 1st purchased this game on the 360. I don't think there were really any games like this back at the time. The weapon choices, exploration, African civil war environment, and story are solid aspects of this game. The game seems a little aged now, so many players nowadays might not like it, but this game will always be a game I hold dear. I hope Ubisoft can bring Far Cry 3 to GOG because Far Cry 3 took a lot from this game and improved upon them. I think Far Cry 3 gun play/combat is superior but there are also some things this game does better, so I love both.

A very rough diamond

Far Cry 2 is probably the most forgotten game of the series, for all the wrong reasons in my opinion. Disclaimer: Play the game with the "Far Cry 2: Redux" Mod. It fixes most of the games worst flaws and my review will ignore said issues due to them being easily fixable by just installing this one tiny mod. FC2 is probably best described as a "Ubisoft light" game. It clearly follows the "check all the boxes of this list" formula, but neither as boring as the newest installments of the series, nor as tedious as the recent Assassin's Creed games. I'd call it just the right amount. FC2 is probably one of the most immersive games ever made as in there is no tons of menues to go through and tons of mechanics you have to keep in mind and work through. Almost everything is done inside the game world. The game's world has been called too monotonous and depressing, but that's kinda the point, that's quite literally how the real world equivalent to the place looks like. Sure it's far from perfect, the enemies that keep respawning, the balancing of some missions, the vehicle physics, etc. but that's just something to be expected from a game this age and secondly and probably most importantly the latests entries into the series are way worse in those regards. Sure the "open world" is not that open, but again the game is from 2008 so what exactly are you expecting? FC2 is a slow game, but I don't think that's a bad thing at all, it all adds to the immersion and the enemy density will make sure there's not much downtime. The ways you can attack enemy camps, especially with the fire physics are plentiful and will ensure that the encounters feel different, even though they are of course pretty similar. If you are looking for a really solid FPS in a very underused setting and can deal with some jank, you are in for a great time.

Game is broken

Game is broken: jumping (critical) NPC's that you can't interact with to progress and soft locking happens as well. Unfortunate that this game is not playable. And very unfortunate that GOG sells the game in this state.

Great, but flawed

Far Cry 2 has many things going right for it. Such as the AI behaviour, and details in the enviroment. Where it goes wrong for some is the Limited fast Travel, Marlarlia and Weapon Jamming/Breakage features in the game. Hoewever, more hardcore gamers wouldn't mind these features. Overall, if you like Open-World games or Shooters, but hate being hand held or want something different from today's market, try out Far Cry 2.
