In short, he starts to resemble Vaas… Far Cry 3: Gameplay
Vaas heads up a colourful list of slavers, pirates, criminals, perverts and nutcases who Jason finds himself ranged against in his search for his friends, once he escapes Montenegro's clutches in the early stages of the game.Īs Jason explores the tropical island environments, racking up an impressive number of corpses, he transforms from scared First World brat into an unhinged killing machine, tossing vestiges of his humanity to the four winds in his quest for alpha male supremacy. Intelligent, charming and utterly insane, he's as likely to casually stab a helpless captive through the heart as he is to wax philosophical on the nature of madness. Vaas, by the way, is one of the best villains created in gaming in the last few years. The camera then pans back to show this montage is being shown on a camera phone that's being held by the group's captor, a twitchy, erudite psycho called Vaas Montenegro, who has a smile similar to that of a boa constrictor before it swallows its prey. In montage the player sees them doing shots, leaping into rock pools and skydiving. The game kicks off with its protagonist, a blue-eyed American boy called Jason, being shown having the time off his life with his mates and his two brothers on holiday in an island paradise. In Far Cry 3, the online modes may be competent, sure, but the reason to pick up this game is for its superb single player campaign, which boasts one of the best narratives in any game all year.
Far Cry 3 feels like the culmination of the best elements of the series, merging the open world of Far Cry 2 with frenetic shooter actionįar Cry 3 harkens back to an older, and some would argue better, aesthetic in shooters, which goes against the trend justifying an anorexic story mode by packaging it with a robust multiplayer.
