    Far Cry 4

    Game » consists of 15 releases. Released Nov 18, 2014

    Far Cry 4 puts the player in the role of Ajay Ghale and pits him against a deadly antagonist and an even deadlier environment.

    This game has a brilliant easter egg *MAJOR SPOILERS*

    So Far Cry 4 has an easteregg or rather a secret ending and I think it's fantastic. Don't watch the video if you don't want to spoil yourself though as it contains major spoilers. I don't really care about the narrative especially after they fucked up the one in Far Cry 3 so bad but I'd wager this ending is better that the actual one. Very clever, especially considering the song they marketed the game with is "Should I stay or should I go".

    Fantastic. Don't really see how it's so spoilery though.

    I wish you got a short sequence of you on a minigun taking out the Golden Path base with Pagan.

    I haven't played the game, but I assume the game expects the player to sneak out of Pagin Min's hideout when given the opportunity, given that he is presented as a psychopath. For you to politely wait on his return, and then go off to shoot the apparent good guys on a helicopter, is the joke.

    I cant tell if I didn't get it or I did get it but just didn't find it very funny.

    Cool of them to include it though. Always like it when devs do goofy little things like this.

    Well your main quest is to scatter the ashes of your mother. You get picked up by "antagonist" dude here and he tells you to wait in that room. If you don't do that and escape you just launch in the regular game. If you actually wait he comes back, reveals the things he says in that video and lets you scatter the ashes like you planned (or rather lets you lay the urn down besides the one of the main character's sister). So it turns out he keeps his promise and isn't such a bad dude after all (depending on how you look at it). The whole game only really happens because you don't wait in that room as he says.

    Gotcha. I've been paying zero attention to this game so I have like zero context for anything that was shown in that video. Makes sense though! Clever, as well.

    This is super cool. Especially tying it back to the song.

    I don't know if I'm reading too much into this but I love that final line from Pagan Ming. It seems to imply that the devs know that most people don't necessarily play Far Cry for the story. They play it to "shoot some guns" and feel like a hero.
