The side stories were mostly absent and not interesting at all.

Then

I did the story for Far Cry 6 and some of the side stuff in about 12 hours, then uninstalled the game

Come on pal, I don't disagree, it felt the weakest of the series... But this feels like you wanted to dislike the game before even playing it. Plus, you can't really criticise something as being absent if you just chose not to engage with it.

You'd use a big ass gun upgraded with special armor piercing bullets, shoot a regular dude right in the head and he would just shrug it off and keep going.

Yeah? I had the opposite problem. Using the first rifle you get with a silencer and some armour piercing rounds you could one shot every enemy with a head shot. Took away a lot of the fun by making me have to ignore that and use different guns that were substantially weaker just for some fun firefights.
