Just to point it out, he wasn’t using the book as a silencer like most people have thought. He’s using it to block the back splash of the blood that would get on to him. A book wouldn’t do much to silence a gun shot lol
Also as a distraction. He knew the bartender would reach the gun before him so he went for the book to block the bartenders line of sight while also taking his own gun out. You can't shoot what you can't see
I love how this far cry game kinda goes against the grain of typical far cry game. In every far cry we are a foreigner to the place we’re at. But in this one we’re an island native trying to go to a place we’re foreign to. In other far cry game the villains are overly obsessed with you, but in this one the villain honestly doesn’t care about you. Your just another freedom fighter that needs to be stopped and killed. That’s what makes me like this far cry game. I’m super glad they made the protagonist and the villain very interesting and Anton is one of the best villains in the series
not to mention the fact that the story is kinda basic and simplistic from the get go but it was a fun ride getting through because of the characters and mission you went along the way
The book is not a silencer/suppressor. It is used to keep the blood from hitting the shooter, and hide the fact he is pulling a gun. Still it a win for pulling double duty.
Also I think Anton killed Diego because he knew Dani couldn’t protect Diego. Diego is a Castillo meaning that even tho he’s different from his father he’s still his kid so mfs are gonna gun for him to kill Diego. Meaning that Diego has for look over his shoulder constantly for the rest of his life. Plus it’ll be a bad look for the resistance harboring the child of their dictator. Plus it comes full circle. Diego never had a choice in who he wanted to become or be, Anton was telling him what he has to do and who he has to be. In the end Anton still had control over Diego’s entire life, even taking it.
It actually has been sort of confirmed that all FC take place in the same universe as when you get Boom Boom as a companion there’s a note in the crate he walks out of talking about the state of Montana and that “some weirdo raving about a monkey god paid extra to make sure this dog got out.” Confirming that Hurk sent away Boomer. Meaning that at the very least…FC 5 and 6 as well as FC 3, are all in the same universe.
I would say FC6 is in new "Ubiverse" because there's changes like D50 becoming real Desert Eagle now and they "retconned" some stuff like Vaas possibly being alive, same case for watch dogs legion where they also have desert eagle instead of D50 and also made Aiden, Wrench and Jackson a bit different to what they were in WD1 + retconning the timeline and saying WD1 takes place in 2014 and WD2 in 2017
13:00 Just one thing on the slavery issue. Anton is using classic 'whataboutism' to deflect criticism from himself. 'Oh, America did slavery so why should they judge us?' as if two wrongs make a right. Classic manipulative behaviour, and a way to seem smart without actually confronting issues you see in yourself.
I also like how McKay points out Canada’s history with natives. They were anything but kind to them. America wasn’t even the last racist country. (That honor goes to South Africa) but we get called out for it the most.
The actual argument he proposes goes deeper than just simple whataboutism. He says it - it is not a history lesson. It is a head start. It is not just that "others have done it before", it is "others have done it, and to this they collect the blood money dividend from it, while preventing others from doing the same, securing their advantage, and covering it under the guise of morality".
That's not the point he was making, he was saying how because a cure for cancer is something people are so desperate for, people won't care how it's made, sweatshops make phones, coffee is picked by slaves, etc.
He also conveniently forgot the part where hundreds of thousands of Americans died to set the slaves free and help inch America further towards being a better country.
No that was debunked after one of the developers of farcry 3 comfrimed it on twitter that vaas is dead just stop with these theories Either this was before the events of farcry 3 or it was ubisofts stupid attempt to bring back a beloved character from the dead which means its being retconned
I mean he didn’t get stabbed directly in the heart and lungs so he could have survived plus by how calm he sounds he sounds like he isn’t controlled by hoit so maybe like come on we wanna see ya boy in another farcry come on
The ending to this far cry just made you feel like it was a lost cause to begin with and a sense of accomplishment. It made you feel a loss you never had till that moment and the realization that there are casualties of war wether you like it or not Point is this is in my top 3 far cry games
Agreed. More good guys die in this one than is usual for these sorts of games: Papa Montero, Jonrun, El Tigre, Jose, and Diego. You expect some of these like Papa Montero and your friends at the start but all of these? It adds up.
I loved El Tigre's death moment. Painted as a big hero throughout the whole El Este Arc, then when he dies, he just dies. No last words, nothing. Shows how no matter who you are, it'll come to everybody.
In the mission where you go to Esperanza for the first time to kill Castillo, Dani seems to hesitate when she is asked to kill him. Maybe this was because she didn’t want Diego to be an orphan like herself. Idk that’s just something I noticed and I think it shows in other moments throughout the game.
Castillo also has another point. In a cutscene, he asks Clara over the phone "Even if you get Yara, what will you do with it?" I find a point in that cuz another statement supports him that "You can't extinguish fires with free elections." They will form a temporary government to take over until it is possible to hold elections but one of them will go corrupt and yara will go full authoritarian circle. That's just how life works in Yara, I guess.
Little bit to add here, when Jonron is dead if you return to the crashed helicopter where you first meet her, Dani "calls" her phone and it goes to a pre recorded message. After it plays Dani will say something along the lines of "I miss her".
34:49 Something I don't think you touched on, I feel like his change in demeanor had nothing to do with any kind of fear or anything underhanded. I think he was genuinely beaming with pride for his son, especially when you see the look on his face. That's shock, sure, but the pleasant kind. His little Diego finally acted with purpose, without doubt. He saw what he wanted done and did it. You mentioned earlier that there's clearly a loving father deep down in Anton, and this is another place we get to see it. You even see him genuinely smile as he turns to cut Dani down.
38:22 This scene is also pretty similar to the scene in Downfall when Hitler speaks to Speer in 1945 about Germania's (Berlin's would-be new name after the war) planned design and development in Berlin while it's under attack from all sides, a situation very similar to Anton's at that point.
For those unaware, that wasn't just a scene for the film. That happened. Hitler *obsessed* over his Germania plans and model during the last weeks of the war, as the Red Army was closing the vice around Berlin. Though it wasn't Speer he talked to about it, Speer was...uh..busy, but there was an architect hand-picked by Speer who constructed the model exactly to Hitler's specifications. He'd pour over *every* tiny detail, down to minor errors in the scale that he asked to be fixed. It was the only escape he had from the horrors he'd brought upon his nation and, in the end, himself.
Also the scene where he tells Diego that Maria is dead, the song that's playing is sung by Antón's own mother, Yolanda, who was a famous singer in Yara before the revolution of '67
The Julio interrogation scene is a reference to his character in Breaking Bad. Also I’m surprised that Anton didn’t comment on Hawaii’s sugar canes history. For those not aware, Hawaii was a sugar cane and pineapple plantation that used Chinese to “contracted” Japanese to Filipinos to work on the plantation. Interesting fact.
In response to 28:45 I've done a tiny bit of research and found some interesting tidbits plus I came up with something new. The Brazillian Military has a motto: Fortuna Audaces Sequitur which is Latin for "Luck follows the Brave." There's also audentes Fortuna iuvat which is (roughly) Latin for "Fortune favors the strong" but you could switch "Strong" for "Brave" or "Bold" and it would still fit. I think it would make sense if "Luck follows the Brave" was relevant for Dani and "Fortune favors the Strong" was relevant for Castillo, like two clashing fates or ideologies.
As a Canadian student who has learned extensively about residential schools them being mentioned and then followed up with nobody is perfect filled me with such a rage especially in light of recent events
I played this game in one of the best ways for me I think. I started with El Este because the game wanted you to go to Bicho. Right when I was losing interest, I headed over met Charizo, unlocked the God Panther, and it became a hole new game. Then the rap scene on the roof and I was instantly hooked again. Great game as long as you know its Far Cry.
When Dani says "When Tyranny is law, Revolution is the answer", it's a quote from a Puerto Rican independance leader of the 1930's and 40's named Pedro Albizu Campos. He was a man that faught to make Puerto Rico independant and no longer a colony (because, let's be real, that's what we are) in an uprising in 1950, but he failed. He was arrested and expirimented with in jail, being bombared with readioactive substances. He died in 1965 from cancer, never to see his island become free. Ps - Edited for grammar
One of the things I like about Far Cry 6 is you can here the comms from the enemy soldiers. It reminds me of the Death Troopers from Rouge one. I don’t know why I really like it I just do Small Edit: Jonron is my Far Cry waifu
I’d listen to your podcast breaking down game meanings and philosophies without hesitation. I like your videos because you do that more than other channels do
With this "Be the Villain" DLC I wouldn't be surprised if Ubisoft achieved that Hero/Villain balance by having the player play FC7's Villain from time to time, either as flashbacks or as a secondary story. A good hero needs a better villain, so maybe the Villain could be a chance for a power-fantasy before the Hero uses Tools of Opportunity to take them down and still the game's best equipment. Post-game stuff could be about the Hero becoming the new Villain, taking the Region as their own and becoming no better than the guy before them.
I seriously LOVE this channel. You always analyze it so well that I really have to appreciate every game i play since discovering you :D (btw podcast would be awesome)
Ubisoft games where you can choose your characters gender always feel like they’re written with a female protagonist first and foremost, I know with AC Odyssey and Valhalla Kassandra and female Eivor are the canon protagonists, Ubi executives are just sexist pricks who think having a sole main character who’s a woman doesn’t sell
@@Im__Andy-f6x I don't think it's coming from a sexist mindset. I mean, if they want the player to feel represented, it's good that the choice is there. It lets the player choose the character that will best represent them. Personally I don't mind if games make a FMC the default or only option, but a lot of people get angry nowadays when games have only a FMC or only an MMC depending on whether or not they are "woke" or "anti-woke", so picking both is a "safe" decision for a company that wants to maximize profits. Best not to piss off either group. I should note one side complains about games lacking representation, the other side complains about having too much emphasis on it
One thing I love is when Dani is alone in a vehicle with the radio on she will start singing along, but she doesn't always sing the words. She will skip over the more difficult parts of a song or just hum along. At first I didn't realize that it was her doing it, but when I figured out it was her singing I was in love with her... So yeah I'm gay for Dani.
While not a big fan of the Farcry series, one that stood out to me was Farcry Primal, it feels so different from the rest of the series In a good way, it may be a shorter video if done but it would be amazing to see you win it
21:40 i believe the guy saying "you're a frightened rat" is a reference to breaking bad, right before Gus (Giancarlo's character) dies, he tells the one killing him that he is a "Frightened little rata"
Happy to see more positivity toward this game. It’s not perfect, obviously, but it’s absolutely gorgeous visually and was clearly made with a lot of love for the franchise.
This game has a M1911, MP40, PPSH, Mosin-Nagant, and an MG42, and an MP34, all of which are WW2 era firearms. But I think that's all of them. edit: Also, there is a P08 Luger.
The first Far Cry where you play as the mercenary on the proto crysis map being chased by mutants had third person cutscenes. Once Far Cry was moved to Ubisoft from Crytech they changed to first person up until 6.
41:40 this was already confirmed before, there's talk about what happened in the previous games in this game and others. Also Hurk is a constant - he's in Far Cry 3, then 4, then 5 and new Dawn. In this game he's the one who sent Boomer from Montana to Yara in a shipping crate. So yeah, same world. Willis Huntley from Far Cry 3 is also in 5. The only thing that's a little weird is New Dawn, since the US seems fine in this game (from the information we get at least), and not at all bombed and covered in pink flowers.
So I finished far cry 6 yesterday and watched this video and I have to say this video has made me like the game more even though I already really liked it. Love this channel
Hope no one already wrote this, but maybe Ubisoft hid some Story pieces in the ´background´ of some Cutscenes. In one of the first ones for example the name of the boat Dani is trying to escape with is called ´San Judas´, Judas of course beeing the Apostle who betrayed Jesus. Maybe thats a bit of ´Background-Storytelling´or I´m just a sleepdrepived guy who played Far Cry 6 a bit too much hehe :D Anyways, nice Video!
My headcanon is just Dani has Bella Ciao constantly playing on loop in his head. One of the quotes during the Bella Ciao mission is "I swear I'm hearing some music" or something along those lines
I really enjoyed the game, its setting was really good, soundtrack was too. The story wasn’t to bad, one of the only things I didn’t like was we didn’t really see Castillo much minus the occasional cutscene or radio moments here and there but Giancarlo still killed the role! On a side note I kinda wish the capital city was a bit more active and stuff to do there since like 90% of it is blocked off
Your Handsome Jack comment reminded me that I would love to hear your thoughts on Tales from the Borderlands. I think it is a mostly underappreciated entry into the Borderlands series, but is is funny as f**k! It's also a great example of great epsiodic storytelling by Telltale Games.
I would love to see you do days gone, its my seconds favorite gamd only to be beaten by black flag Days gone has such an amazing story, i know the reviews say its bad, but the people who have actualy played it till the end love it!
My favorite part about this whole thing is the great display of emotion in the cutscenes in Giancarlo’s face you can see every emotion and every single expression so well
I still remember the opening sequence for Far Cry 2, the state the game puts you in......... and in walks the very person you're sent to kill. Brilliant little scene.
So possible fun fact, at 19:18 Anton picks up a record for jazz music which I am pretty sure was his mom’s music because during the last mission where you storm the tower to kill Anton there is a small area that is kind of like a tiny museum. In that area there is a case with a picture of his mom that talks about her being a jazz singer and such before marrying Anton’s father. I think it is extremely sad as well that he listens to his mother’s music as he tells his son that his mom died.
I’m having an absolute blast with this game. The combat and gunplay feels so good, I adore the aesthetic and feel of the game, I especially love makeshift weaponry and equipment. The makeshift feel of a the weapons and clothing is so cool to me. The story is alright, the characters crack me up. The sandbox is so much fun to play with. I’m so lost in this game right now, I really don’t understand the 3.5 user score. Sure, it’s a bit uninspired but the great itself just feels so solid to play, my only real complaint is the lackluster AI but the fluidity of combat helps make up for it though. They should really touch it up though. The ammo system and supremo backpacks are awesome too.
Actually had a tooth removed with almost no sedation (first time they had to use 12 freezing needles for me to not feet it), second time they thought 2 would work. The amount of pressure you feel is so much greater than the pain, it feels like your jaw is breaking, while a bullet is slowly being shoved up through thru the jaw. Dani is indeed a badass
I found your channel about three days ago and can't stop watching. it's refreshing to watch let alone hear someone's detailed view on what makes a game great. Including the bad games (sorry AC3)
fun fact, Yara is directly mentioned in the radio in far cry 5, they talk about what’s going on over there and they say something else but i’m not sure what it was!
as someone who hasn't played any of the farcry games, im definetly going to get this one. the closest thing i have played to this was just cause 3 and it was super fun. Castillo seems like a more complex DiRavello, the characters seem reminiscent of those from just cause, this game just seems like it was made with a lot of care
This is a small part of the game but as a Canadian, you can really tell who the Canadian guy in the story is suppose to be mocking. Everything about him screams Peoples Party of Canada (PPC) member.
20:00 is one of my favorite scenes in the whole game. Just the way he says it without even stalling or shedding a tear, all under one breath, he comes out and tells Diego what happened, with such a calm, almost careless, tone. Edit: “If there’s anyone worthy of the borderlands intro, it’s El Tigre.” So, we’re not gonna talk about Camila?
The theme of luck is quite strong with Dani indeed. Don't forget they have the 10 domino tattooed on their hand, which is considered the "winning" domino. Basically if you have the 10, the odds are you're going to win the game.
I believe that Anton truly loves Diego and didn't want him to go through he did, mercy killing him in order to prevent the same suffering he went through
7:49 I once fly a helicopter to try to board one of the cargo ships you can see in free roam, but it was too far from the playable map. Instead, it triggers the alternate ending. Dani can truly leave Yara anytime
For one to be lucky another mustn't. This is a simple result of Murpheys Law. Millions of little butterflies creating millions of little winds. The reason we are the protaganist is because we experienced these effects enough to be written about.
31:10 I'm glad you pointed this out, because that was something that really bothered me when I first played the game. I saw that and was like "well that was an unnecessary sacrifice, why didn't he just throw the bomb?" And it turns out... he did. He just... didn't throw it soon enough.
I had so much fun with this game, and I think it's because I'm from Puerto Rico and this game manages to capture that island experience so well, from Dani singing the songs in the car to the slang and characters and overall feel of the island. In the real world, sitting in a car for an hour driving somewhere is the most boring thing to me, but in this game I had so much fun with it. This is the second Far Cry game I've played, but it's also because it genuinely caught my eye. I bought Far Cry 5 because I was bored and it was on sale. I bought Far Cry 6 because it genuinely looked good to me(and Giancarlo Esposito). I had so much fun with this game and it's something I see myself replaying for years to come.
I’m surprised you don’t know about the Far Cry games taking place in the same universe The Jackal from Far Cry 2 is theorized or at least a nod to the protagonist from the first Far Cry game, and while Far Cry 3 is a soft reboot to the franchise, there’s a random NPC that references the Jackal, and the reporter from the second game In Far Cry 4, Willis makes a brief reference to Jason to Ajay, and the gun dealer (I’ve forgotten his name) has Ajay collect blood diamonds, the currency from Far Cry 2 Any references to the last games are lost to me on Far Cry 5 but of course Willis Huntley has a cameo mission and let’s not forget that Hurk has been in every game since 3. As for Far Cry 6, we have the Vaas cameo (which leaves plenty of time for theorizing) Boomer is an Amigo in this game as well as a companion in 5 (apparently shipped from Montana to Yara) and you can find magazines that have Pagan Min on them selling Cocoa or something like that I’m confident that all Far Cry games are in the same universe, or least branching ones with New Dawn and 6
Btw, when your about to kill McKay, if you don’t and stay you can hear him and see him call Longinus and ask if he’s going back to Kyrat, so I think they are connected
Just to point it out, he wasn’t using the book as a silencer like most people have thought. He’s using it to block the back splash of the blood that would get on to him. A book wouldn’t do much to silence a gun shot lol
Also as a distraction. He knew the bartender would reach the gun before him so he went for the book to block the bartenders line of sight while also taking his own gun out. You can't shoot what you can't see
Exactly what I was thinking!

There's also audentes Fortuna iuvat which is (roughly) Latin for "Fortune favors the strong" but you could switch "Strong" for "Brave" or "Bold" and it would still fit. I think it would make sense if "Luck follows the Brave" was relevant for Dani and "Fortune favors the Strong" was relevant for Castillo, like two clashing fates or ideologies.

As a Canadian student who has learned extensively about residential schools them being mentioned and then followed up with nobody is perfect filled me with such a rage especially in light of recent events
May I ask what you mean? I'm not educated on the topic.
I played this game in one of the best ways for me I think. I started with El Este because the game wanted you to go to Bicho. Right when I was losing interest, I headed over met Charizo, unlocked the God Panther, and it became a hole new game. Then the rap scene on the roof and I was instantly hooked again. Great game as long as you know its Far Cry.
5:30 You're a gamaing wins channel, and you're sharing the history of the wins. I dig it. Don't stop!
I finished this game literally 2 days ago now I get to relive it in detail, this has to be one of the best weeks I’ve had
Same. I literally finished it yesterday and now I can relax and watch this video
When Dani says "When Tyranny is law, Revolution is the answer", it's a quote from a Puerto Rican independance leader of the 1930's and 40's named Pedro Albizu Campos. He was a man that faught to make Puerto Rico independant and no longer a colony (because, let's be real, that's what we are) in an uprising in 1950, but he failed. He was arrested and expirimented with in jail, being bombared with readioactive substances. He died in 1965 from cancer, never to see his island become free.

One of the things I like about Far Cry 6 is you can here the comms from the enemy soldiers. It reminds me of the Death Troopers from Rouge one. I don’t know why I really like it I just do Small Edit: Jonron is my Far Cry waifu

With this "Be the Villain" DLC I wouldn't be surprised if Ubisoft achieved that Hero/Villain balance by having the player play FC7's Villain from time to time, either as flashbacks or as a secondary story. A good hero needs a better villain, so maybe the Villain could be a chance for a power-fantasy before the Hero uses Tools of Opportunity to take them down and still the game's best equipment. Post-game stuff could be about the Hero becoming the new Villain, taking the Region as their own and becoming no better than the guy before them.
Actually, FC used 3rd person cutscenes too. Just a bit of a fact checking

The snippets from the beginning? It was actually a first person cutscene, because we view the video from the eyes of Jason.

Female Dani is best Dani. It's clear they wrote the story with female Dani in mind, her character makes more sense to me tbh.
Ubisoft games where you can choose your characters gender always feel like they’re written with a female protagonist first and foremost, I know with AC Odyssey and Valhalla Kassandra and female Eivor are the canon protagonists, Ubi executives are just sexist pricks who think having a sole main character who’s a woman doesn’t sell
@@Im__Andy-f6x I don't think it's coming from a sexist mindset. I mean, if they want the player to feel represented, it's good that the choice is there. It lets the player choose the character that will best represent them.
Personally I don't mind if games make a FMC the default or only option, but a lot of people get angry nowadays when games have only a FMC or only an MMC depending on whether or not they are "woke" or "anti-woke", so picking both is a "safe" decision for a company that wants to maximize profits. Best not to piss off either group.
I should note one side complains about games lacking representation, the other side complains about having too much emphasis on it
@@Im__Andy-f6x ?? How are they sexist lol
I personally feel that male Dani shows more emotion, and he also seems to me to fit more into what the game is.
I would love to have more of a podcast type content from you.

One thing I love is when Dani is alone in a vehicle with the radio on she will start singing along, but she doesn't always sing the words. She will skip over the more difficult parts of a song or just hum along. At first I didn't realize that it was her doing it, but when I figured out it was her singing I was in love with her... So yeah I'm gay for Dani.
I love how you trigger the secret ending in this Far Cry because it's the same idea from 4 but better: you can just leave. At any point in the game.
While not a big fan of the Farcry series, one that stood out to me was Farcry Primal, it feels so different from the rest of the series In a good way, it may be a shorter video if done but it would be amazing to see you win it
21:40 i believe the guy saying "you're a frightened rat" is a reference to breaking bad, right before Gus (Giancarlo's character) dies, he tells the one killing him that he is a "Frightened little rata"
Love this video on FC6 still. 6 months later and I still love this game. It’s such a fun and enjoyable time.
New to this channel but have loved the videos. It’s nice to see a positive take on video games and you dive into them well.
I happy you finally covered far cry 6 this is definitely my favorite game in the series so far
Finally! I'm glad to see people not drying out far cry 3
@@DanzGmod565 it’s a great game but it’s definitely dated and I feel like it’s slightly overhyped

@@halogod0298 he never said it's bad tho
Happy to see more positivity toward this game. It’s not perfect, obviously, but it’s absolutely gorgeous visually and was clearly made with a lot of love for the franchise.
I'd love a ww2 setting far cry would be so sick to be able to use weapons like an stg-44 or the Mp40
Far cry 6 has a mp40
Damn....I guess I'm just stupid
5 even had one if I'm not mistaken
Ww2 games have been sooooo overdone over the years that im tired of them. I would say the Vietnam-USA war would be a better setting
This game has a M1911, MP40, PPSH, Mosin-Nagant, and an MG42, and an MP34, all of which are WW2 era firearms. But I think that's all of them.
edit: Also, there is a P08 Luger.
The first Far Cry where you play as the mercenary on the proto crysis map being chased by mutants had third person cutscenes. Once Far Cry was moved to Ubisoft from Crytech they changed to first person up until 6.
24:26 to 24:30
Out of EVERYONE, El Tigre will forever be my favorite character from Far Cry 6. Like Lucky Mama said: "He was the true legend of 67".
41:40 this was already confirmed before, there's talk about what happened in the previous games in this game and others. Also Hurk is a constant - he's in Far Cry 3, then 4, then 5 and new Dawn. In this game he's the one who sent Boomer from Montana to Yara in a shipping crate. So yeah, same world. Willis Huntley from Far Cry 3 is also in 5. The only thing that's a little weird is New Dawn, since the US seems fine in this game (from the information we get at least), and not at all bombed and covered in pink flowers.
I really loved this Far Cry but the ending with Castillo killing Diego was a wasted opportunity, I truly hoped for Diego to become a villain as well
So I finished far cry 6 yesterday and watched this video and I have to say this video has made me like the game more even though I already really liked it. Love this channel
Hope no one already wrote this, but maybe Ubisoft hid some Story pieces in the ´background´ of some Cutscenes. In one of the first ones for example the name of the boat Dani is trying to escape with is called ´San Judas´, Judas of course beeing the Apostle who betrayed Jesus. Maybe thats a bit of ´Background-Storytelling´or I´m just a sleepdrepived guy who played Far Cry 6 a bit too much hehe :D
Anyways, nice Video!
My headcanon is just Dani has Bella Ciao constantly playing on loop in his head. One of the quotes during the Bella Ciao mission is "I swear I'm hearing some music" or something along those lines
I really enjoyed the game, its setting was really good, soundtrack was too. The story wasn’t to bad, one of the only things I didn’t like was we didn’t really see Castillo much minus the occasional cutscene or radio moments here and there but Giancarlo still killed the role! On a side note I kinda wish the capital city was a bit more active and stuff to do there since like 90% of it is blocked off
The song used to break up the Blockade is called "Libertad Rises", which has a reprise called "The Battle of Espiranza". Hope that helps.
Your Handsome Jack comment reminded me that I would love to hear your thoughts on Tales from the Borderlands. I think it is a mostly underappreciated entry into the Borderlands series, but is is funny as f**k! It's also a great example of great epsiodic storytelling by Telltale Games.
I would love to see you do days gone, its my seconds favorite gamd only to be beaten by black flag
Days gone has such an amazing story, i know the reviews say its bad, but the people who have actualy played it till the end love it!
I could LISTEN to you talk about this thing (truthfully, *any*thing) for hours and hours
I'm really enjoyed how you and your editor (Shaun iirc?) bring up interesting point about certain sections of the game.
My favorite part about this whole thing is the great display of emotion in the cutscenes in Giancarlo’s face you can see every emotion and every single expression so well
I just realised that Anton killed himself with the blade he used during his hard labour amazing call back Anton ends himself with what made him
I still remember the opening sequence for Far Cry 2, the state the game puts you in......... and in walks the very person you're sent to kill. Brilliant little scene.
24:39 the way he delivers that line always kill me
I’m surprised that you didn’t add two wins to the Easter egg to Longinus and Willis to Mckays call.
31:01
Missed opportunity for another Borderlands reference; "Simple. Except not at all." God, Angel deserved better
So possible fun fact, at 19:18 Anton picks up a record for jazz music which I am pretty sure was his mom’s music because during the last mission where you storm the tower to kill Anton there is a small area that is kind of like a tiny museum. In that area there is a case with a picture of his mom that talks about her being a jazz singer and such before marrying Anton’s father. I think it is extremely sad as well that he listens to his mother’s music as he tells his son that his mom died.
El Tigre throwing one more fist encouraging them to live on and fight again is such a well done moment.
13:57 the blade is i think the little leather pouch he has on his belt and then uses it to slit his own throat in the end game
I would fucking love if you did a podcast I’d listen to every single second of it
I’m having an absolute blast with this game. The combat and gunplay feels so good, I adore the aesthetic and feel of the game, I especially love makeshift weaponry and equipment. The makeshift feel of a the weapons and clothing is so cool to me. The story is alright, the characters crack me up. The sandbox is so much fun to play with. I’m so lost in this game right now, I really don’t understand the 3.5 user score. Sure, it’s a bit uninspired but the great itself just feels so solid to play, my only real complaint is the lackluster AI but the fluidity of combat helps make up for it though. They should really touch it up though. The ammo system and supremo backpacks are awesome too.
The game* not the great, lmao.
I just finished the story of far cry 6 today it was amazing far cry 6 is my game of the year so far
The safety's on joke is why I don't have an external safety mechanism on my carry pistol just locked and loaded always ready for shit to hit the fan.
Actually had a tooth removed with almost no sedation (first time they had to use 12 freezing needles for me to not feet it), second time they thought 2 would work. The amount of pressure you feel is so much greater than the pain, it feels like your jaw is breaking, while a bullet is slowly being shoved up through thru the jaw. Dani is indeed a badass
I found your channel about three days ago and can't stop watching. it's refreshing to watch let alone hear someone's detailed view on what makes a game great. Including the bad games (sorry AC3)
Also the far crys that came out before 2 used third person cutscenes. People just tend to forget that they exist at times
fun fact, Yara is directly mentioned in the radio in far cry 5, they talk about what’s going on over there and they say something else but i’m not sure what it was!
I just feel like Disco Elysium would be perfect for this channel.
goddamit! I'm gonna have to play this game now despite its shortcomings on gameplay - I love a good story!
as someone who hasn't played any of the farcry games, im definetly going to get this one. the closest thing i have played to this was just cause 3 and it was super fun. Castillo seems like a more complex DiRavello, the characters seem reminiscent of those from just cause, this game just seems like it was made with a lot of care
Giancarlo saying “a head start” in the sharp and ruthless was he did fits perfectly with what he’s saying. that being a horrific and ruthless thing.
This is a small part of the game but as a Canadian, you can really tell who the Canadian guy in the story is suppose to be mocking. Everything about him screams Peoples Party of Canada (PPC) member.
PPC is great
24:01 words cannot explain how much I love him saying the word fire
14:33 the journalist accepts the gift from Diego. Which proves Anton right. No one will care for his methods.
20:00 is one of my favorite scenes in the whole game. Just the way he says it without even stalling or shedding a tear, all under one breath, he comes out and tells Diego what happened, with such a calm, almost careless, tone.
Edit: “If there’s anyone worthy of the borderlands intro, it’s El Tigre.”
So, we’re not gonna talk about Camila?

The theme of luck is quite strong with Dani indeed. Don't forget they have the 10 domino tattooed on their hand, which is considered the "winning" domino. Basically if you have the 10, the odds are you're going to win the game.
36:45
The fact that you just referenced Hamilton right here made me subscribe to this channel.
Correction, Chorizo *is* the perfect Trojan Horse
I believe that Anton truly loves Diego and didn't want him to go through he did, mercy killing him in order to prevent the same suffering he went through
can you please do one for Deltarune, Cuphead or Undertale i just want to see you try to do this with not AAA game
Humming Bella Ciao. Proceeds to run over dog with horse
7:49 I once fly a helicopter to try to board one of the cargo ships you can see in free roam, but it was too far from the playable map. Instead, it triggers the alternate ending. Dani can truly leave Yara anytime
I would like to +1 the podcast idea. That would be amazing

The reason we are the protaganist is because we experienced these effects enough to be written about.
31:10 I'm glad you pointed this out, because that was something that really bothered me when I first played the game. I saw that and was like "well that was an unnecessary sacrifice, why didn't he just throw the bomb?" And it turns out... he did. He just... didn't throw it soon enough.
6:03 are we not going to talk about the dog you brutally murdered?
I had so much fun with this game, and I think it's because I'm from Puerto Rico and this game manages to capture that island experience so well, from Dani singing the songs in the car to the slang and characters and overall feel of the island. In the real world, sitting in a car for an hour driving somewhere is the most boring thing to me, but in this game I had so much fun with it. This is the second Far Cry game I've played, but it's also because it genuinely caught my eye. I bought Far Cry 5 because I was bored and it was on sale. I bought Far Cry 6 because it genuinely looked good to me(and Giancarlo Esposito). I had so much fun with this game and it's something I see myself replaying for years to come.
You simping over Dani just basically my entire playthrough
I’m surprised you don’t know about the Far Cry games taking place in the same universe
The Jackal from Far Cry 2 is theorized or at least a nod to the protagonist from the first Far Cry game, and while Far Cry 3 is a soft reboot to the franchise, there’s a random NPC that references the Jackal, and the reporter from the second game
In Far Cry 4, Willis makes a brief reference to Jason to Ajay, and the gun dealer (I’ve forgotten his name) has Ajay collect blood diamonds, the currency from Far Cry 2
Any references to the last games are lost to me on Far Cry 5 but of course Willis Huntley has a cameo mission and let’s not forget that Hurk has been in every game since 3.
As for Far Cry 6, we have the Vaas cameo (which leaves plenty of time for theorizing)
Boomer is an Amigo in this game as well as a companion in 5 (apparently shipped from Montana to Yara) and you can find magazines that have Pagan Min on them selling Cocoa or something like that
I’m confident that all Far Cry games are in the same universe, or least branching ones with New Dawn and 6
Btw, when your about to kill McKay, if you don’t and stay you can hear him and see him call Longinus and ask if he’s going back to Kyrat, so I think they are connected
I'm sad that you didn't include the scene of Guapo's little run when Dani whistle him to attack the approaching guard. It was so cute.
Love that McKay’s poison machine was called Trudo. Not subtle at all but hilarious
Wow never thought it be this quick impressive!
