The template every later Far Cry followed: outposts to liberate, towers to climb, and a genuinely good stealth loop with a bow that makes clearing a camp silently the most satisfying thing in it. The second half loses the plot once the antagonist exits, and the island's activities repeat well before you finish clearing them.
