Selecting this option will cause Father explain that the final seal has been opened and he will kick off a boss battle by infecting you with their hallucinogen called Bliss. Keep in mind you cannot replay this mission without restarting all of Far Cry 5, but if you want the crazy ending make sure to pick Resist. Once you arrive you’ll be given two choices by Father – Resist or Walk Away. Once the player has fought their way through all three regions they will be given a mission titled “Where It All Began.” This is the final story mission and it has the player confront Father in his own church. Each region is controlled by a cult leader who specializes in different aspects of Eden’s Gate such as security or chemical warfare. It’s fun watching them try, though.īut on the up side, if you do have Far Cry 6, there will be DLC where you can play as Vaas.The main focus around Far Cry 5 is systematically disrupting the cult’s influence in three key regions.
Best because his performance is a big part of what makes Far Cry 3 an all-time classic.Īnd it’s the worst thing to have happened to the series because they raised the bar too high by this entry and have been struggling to match the brilliance of Vaas ever since, and the series is yet to surpass his greatness. In some ways, Vaas was the best worst thing that could have happened to Far Cry. That is how you truly know you are dealing with an iconic villain. You just heard that in his voice when you read it, didn’t you? Here, I am going to try a social experiment with you readers. Vaas, played masterfully by actor Michael Mando (who plays Nacho Varga on Better Call Saul) embodies anarchy and manic energy like few not-quite-end bosses ever have.Įverytime you meet Vaas, you know something truly depraved is going to happen to you (from him killing your brother in front of you to tossing you off a cliff with rocks tied to your feet), yet you cannot help but get caught up in his Joker-esque monologuing. Pagan has that Hannibal Lecter charm where you don’t quite know if he likes you or wants to eat you with a nice Chianti.
From his insanely delightful fashion sense (dude knows how to rock a pink/purple suit like only Prince could) to his oozing charisma and charm, there is also something disarming about how initially kind and well-spoken he comes across.
There are many elements that add up to make Pagan Min one of the greatest Far Cry bosses ever. Fittingly savage.īataris is a fire wielding head of the Izila tribe, which hates both you and the Udam tribe, making hers a fairly memorable and formidable sub-boss in Far Cry Primal. You run around a cave system with him chasing you while screeching war cries, and you have to shoot stalactites over his head to drop down and pin him so you can bludgeon him with your caveman club. It should also be stated that this is the best Far Cry boss fight. Think East coast versus West coast rap rivalries, but with caveme.Īnd again to reiterate, Ull is physically terrifying, and makes it very clear that he wants what you have and has no issues leaving a trail of viscera in his path to obtain it.
Seeing that his people are dying due to their location in the snowy mountains, he decides to move them into your territory. Ull is the warchief of a tribe of warring cavemen, the Udam. Yours truly thought he was charismatic as Hell (pun intended), and though he was a little one dimensional, he certainly had a presence. Joseph Seed is one of the more divisive bosses in Far Cry for the simple fact that some people love his “Charles Manson at Church” vibe and some people found it heavy-handed and corny. And “keeping the bad ending as canon” is something Ubisoft ended up doing with the next entry, too. It also reframes the first game quite nicely. There was also a cool payoff for people who played the first Far Cry game, as we recently found out that The Jackal is actually the hero from the first game having chosen the “dark side” ending, which the series took as canon. It was the start of Ubisoft playing with heavy in-game decisions and consequences that are now a series staple. What made The Jackal special was the fact that it was the first time you were presented with an option by the end boss: do the good guy thing and sacrifice yourself to save refugees or kill the Jackal, take his hoard of diamonds, and become the villain yourself? It was a cool twist that made you look back at the game differently.
