I thought it was just bad for any medium. Affluent white kid of Richpeopleeverywhere America finds himself among a tribe of warriors who just can't seem to fend off these outsiders. Said affluent kid becomes "one of them" and subsequently becomes the most powerful warrior out of all of them in the span of like 3 days. At the end "gets" the girl....
this is such a overplayed trope (they didn't even try to make it interesting or different, just lifted it wholesale). Funny enough the backlash from the story spurred Ubi to make FC4's story the way it currently is.
