The biggest flaw in Far Cry 4 is motivation: Ajay has no reason to join and fight for the Golden Path. Incredibly immersion breaking when every time Ajay agrees to do something, you ask "why?"
True, but his mother brought him in a war-locked land, sabal asked him for help, he would get shot for trying to leave he country. I guess he’s doing it out of spite? Or because his mother wanted him to come to come to Kyrat and sort everything out? I don’t know. What’s your theory?
No, the biggest flaw is that people the world over fail to recognise a pure power fantasy, and expect true drama. I mean, honestly...FC3 even had all that shit about Alice to clue you nitwits in. It's Total Recall : The Video Game. Except Ajay doesnt get to fuck the exotic princess like Jason did. Shame.
@@liamdepauw7182 If Ajay was a normal human he would place the mother ash and ask Pagan for permission to leave/ Pagan would told Ajay truth about his father and mother and they would just spent time together. But fuck it let's join the Army of a Pedo and kill thousand of people

Jason Brody wasn’t like all the other protagonist, he was actually horrified when he got his very first kill. When Vass told him to runaway after shooting his brother in the neck
DeathGamingXP It's somewhat exhausting having to keep defending Jason against people who just dismiss him out of hand, completely ignoring his arc, story, motivations, backstory, and context of his actions
Manek Iridius Not really. It is of course somewhat accelerated because video game, but he complains to Dennis before you take the first out post "but I've never shot anyone before", and it isn't until much further when he rscues Lisa that he starts reveling in the violence.
Jason Brody is the most dislikeable character I've ever had the misfortune of controlling in a video game. In fact every single protagonist in FC3 was hateful and I'd have gladly joined Vaas in hunting them down had the game allowed.
love how when you first meet Pagan “should I stay or should I go” plays then you can get a great ending by staying and a shitty drawn out story of joining tibetan al qeda by going.
I find that hard to believe, US army is nowhere NEAR that capable. All those shitpickers can do is bomb civilian objects and kill children. Oh, and complain about lack of portapotties and toilet paper.
You can join the U.S. Army at 17 and serve your first deployment in as little as 3 years and be done. So Ajay definitely could have been in the army at 24.
and the actual villian in this game is Golden path...that whoreson Sabal and that bitch amita...when those fuckers killed bhadra...the only thing left that was in my head was to kill those whoremongers
To be honest I don’t care what they’re doing anymore after The Last of Us Part 2 was released but whatever I’m still willing to play the games they’re in.
Pagan Min is SOOO AWESOMEEE that he made you deduct 2 sins AND even the sins he got from you are subliminally a compliment.....and you forgot to deduct a sin for him saying "you dont text help, you cry for help" and making dude yell for help lol.
What strikes me about the Far Cry games is how much more interesting and likeable the antagonists are than the protagonist. And that is great for building up the drama by exploring the motivation of the villains, but it also suffers greatly since why should I care about the story if I don’t care about the protagonist?
I feel that's a problem with lots of AAA video game protagonists, they are deliberately designed to be blank slates with no defined personality so that the player can project themselves onto them, and while it can work for games with an easily understandable and simplistic goal, most games just end up being uncompelling because their protagonists are so forgettable and come off as bland idiots next to the more fleshed out supporting cast. Games could theoretically let you play as literally anyone or anything the developers can come up with, I'm tired of being tossed a blank slate and being told to just imagine something myself.
Yeah that got me thinking of how cool to play a far cry game where you are a clear villain like Vaas or Min instead of blank slates, like almost a role reversal.
Its fine if the protag is a blank slate, but then you need to give me a lot of options to fill in the blanks. As Ajay, I wanted to say: fuck the Golden Path, I'll use my skills and help Kyrat in my own way. You could have reasoned with Pagan. You could have gotten Noore to help you raise a rebellion of your own. You could have used your connections to help you instead of the Golden Path to really clean house in Kyrat. I could have usurped the Golden Path. Why would I serve the horrible idiots that are Sabal and Amita?
But still, these games are one of the best games that gave me immersion. Like I felt like the choice of who should rule Kyrat was important to me as if it would affect the real world.
@@Narcian150 I 100% agree with you. I like the fact that, instead of pre-defined slate, we are allowed to be immersed in the situation. But yeah, I would like what you said.
Deca Suffrage That was my favorite, but second would be: "Really guys, we're not checking for these anymore?" "I like it when a villain sins his own men for their incompetence."
"I'll tell you what we are going to do. We - and I mean you, are going to drive a truck full of explosive right into the gate in a frontal attack. Nevermind that I just said that was suicide."
I usually find these videos pretty funny, but Ajay's file does say he served in the Army while he lived in the U.S. So he should have a pretty good grasp on killing. Even if he wasn't deployed, he should still have the proper training.
12:05 Favor swings greatly towards Sabal, because Amita literally wanted to turn the entire country into a druglab and then throws random accusations around to bring her point across.
@Jeb Bush It still is worth it considering we can delay the Gentic Mutations that might happen there. Although, the same can be said for Sabal. Both of them were delusional IMO
@Jeb Bush Yeah,it's been a while since I commented that and I regret that already. I think letting Pagan rule was better since he had only a little bit of both.
Pagan is like one of my distant relatives . They’re all like “ The last time I saw you, you were this tall (moves hand to a certain elevation) dont you remember me!? “ then they expect you to know who you are
I don't understand why people would have found Far Cry 3 better than Far Cry 4... frankly Far Cry 3 had so much cringe to it, your character was a crybaby bitching about his friends thru the first half of the game, afterward magically he became a careless bastard that sent his friends away, didn't give a crap anymore about seeing them home and decided to stay and fight, as for Vaas frankly I just found him annoying... he was a incestuously jealous prick basically... I get why people would like him, he is sorta a Joker type character, but frankly he feels more overhyped than anything else. Pagan Min at least was an interesting villain, Hell he had a Joker style of character to some degree, albeit less 'wild' than the version Vaas represented, frankly I prefer a villain that isn't just some insane maniac like Vaas, someone that is just evil because that is what he is due to circumstances like Min.
@Lydia Hood Yeah, I don't really get why people like Far Cry 3 better either. Jason was really annoying. Sure Ajay is pretty boring, but I'll gladly take boring over obnoxious. I did think Vaas was entertaining, but I agree that he was a bit overhyped.
SWARNANKA ROY I agree. I find his joke to be funnier than GamingSins, his comedic timing is good, he actually livestream the game and do a research on it. Because he did a livestream, we can easily pointed out his mistake because we can easily find the prove in the livestream.
Gaming Sins was good before Axel left (or went on hiatus or whatever). Then they just started writing their scripts entirely on sins the comments sections make up
Loved the video, and I didn't even realize some of the plot holes that you made so very apparent. Two things though. Pagan Min mentioned to Ajay that he took a trip to The States to see Ishwari. He never actually met up with her, but it's probably safe to assume that he watched her and Ajay from afar, hence the way he treated him at the start of the game. In his mind, he felt like he already knew him, as he _soooort_ of is his step-son of sorts. Amita saying "He's up" is likely just a humorous way of saying "Hey, you're finally awake!" in third person. Those are the only two sins I really feel are unjustified. Everything else is very much correct, and I too am saddened by what could have been with the characters, tension, and story in this game. I still greatly love Far Cry 4 despite all of its flaws, though. :)
I’ve read that Ajay was supposed to have been a green beret, having served in Afghanistan and Iraq. That would explain why he’s totally fine with blood on his hands.
I completely agree with 5:04 I was thinking the whole time who is this guy and why is he so OK with killing right off the bat? And I couldn’t stop thinking about the secret ending because He had no reason to get up and leave. He didn’t seem scared of pagan. Because he could tell he recognized him. Just thinking the whole time how was he OK with killing so quick does he have combat experience and as far as I could tell, Ajay wasn’t scared of pagan so he had no reason to leave. Having a hard time getting into the game because the story is kinda, ehh so far.
Pagan is very funny, he explains how he got mad very well (depending on your choices in the very beginnign or ending of the game) And he's very good because he's not over the top like all the others trying to re creat Vaas's insanity.
Pagan Min and his governors are low key the heroes. I like playing as a double agent for them and after I free outposts for the golden path I let the predators loose once the GP guys arrive and ignore calls for help when the camps are being attacked.
16:19 Ajay imagined Yuma as Kalinag ( ts funny since you show the footage right when you say that you have no Idea where she is) I guess she wanted to gut Ajay personally? Yeah it still doesn’t really make much sense
One more sin, in game the royal guard assaulters and defenders use P416s. But in the cutscenes (like the one where Ajay is in the bus at the start of the game) they use AK47s
Another sin at the mission where you must kill either Amita or Sabal: before getting to the target, you must kill Golden Path members. That makes you a traitor.
Regarding the "drug that makes you envision the future" you could've easily connected it to the fact that mysticism is canon in the game. That's how the Shangri-La scrolls worked, the game respects the belief of the culture the game is set around, so it isn't really illogical in the game. Moreover Yuma didn't use drugs, she used that same magic, refer to how she made Paul bring a Hindu saint from India who could translate Sanskrit for her. So she was using mystic powers rather than drugs. Also you missed a sin: it doesn't matter whose missions you choose before Jalendu Temple. The game says that the ending will depend on how much you lean towards someone but you could do 100% Sabal missions before Jalendu and choose Amita at Jalendu to get Amita's ending. So the game was just making excuses for you to go zig-zag into double standards despite the fact that only the Jalendu choice makes a difference.
10:30 "Make Kyrat a tax shelter or start a bitcoin mining operation." Good idea when there is basically no infrastructure and bitcoin prize is fluctuating when it's 2014.
MérouLN To be fair, ALL of far cry 5s endings suck, narratively speaking, muddling any message the game might have. Though I have issues with 4, mainly because Ajay's participation in the story is a big "why?", the endings' message reflects the what actually was going on over the course of the game
I had never played any of the other Far Cry games, so I thought this one was fantastic, THAT said, I definitely agree with your sins of the game. In many places, it seemed to teeter on the brink of brilliance, but tripped at the one-yard line. Either way, I loved the video, got some good laughs, well done!
12:10 it should be noted amita is deliberately misleading you. Bhadra (the teenage girl you meet) is meant to 'marry' the god; i.e. become a priestess. So it's not that Sabal would be marrying a 'little girl', it's that he'd make Bhadra become a priestess and lead a celibate life. Oh, and Sabal is way more interesting if you side with him. He also is the only one that makes any sense to side with, because he represents the golden path; Amita wants to do away with Kyrat's culture & past, which is sole reason the golden path exists (because they're meant to be stopping it. Tl;dr: Amita just wants to replace pagan min with herself. 14:05 oh, and Willis has no reason to save Ajay here either; he's a combatant for the Golden Path, effectively a terrorist, and the US has no beef with pagan min anymore (as willis just said). Meaning the whole "US citizen" thing doesn't hold much weight anymore.
Dying light please (also youtube has voting polls now, I don’t think I’ve ever seen you use one, just letting you know in case you don’t actually know)
The secret ending is 100% the best ending. I would totally buy a game about the weird "father-son" relationship where you become Pagan's heir and you go around killing rebels and having fun being an asshole.
at the table near the end when he tells you to wait you can wait 10 minutes instead of running away and he'll come back and then theres a different ending
"Ajay, in order to achieve the American dream, joined the US Army in 2006 and served with the 82nd Airborne Division. Two years later he successfully joins the US Special Forces (Green Berets). He qualified as an 18B Weapons Sergeant. He served two tours in Iraq and two in Afghanistan. He became a proficient parachutist, sniper and confident user of explosives. Later skilled in hand to hand combat, reconnaissance, infiltration and combat survival. He later retired at the rank of sergeant first class after seven years of service and won a Silver Star for bravery." So yeah, it's not that weird that Ajay is not afraid of killing.
Heeeeyyy. I've been watching your videos for quite a bit. And I have a thing to ask you. Could you use the game's subtitles, would be better for those people who don't have English as mother language. Thanks
One thing that bothers me in the last two Far Cry games, as you pointed out, is that an arguable good ending is one in which you do nothing. You let what happens happens, or in 5's case not happen. 4, you betray Pagan Min and go on to establish one of two Golden Path's, who each do something evil. Admittedly, 4's hidden ending ends too quickly to show what might happen, but at least it's not what the Golden Path had planned. But, in all honesty, Ajay could very well leave and then work with the Golden Path anyway. Another thing, I don't understand why Ubisoft doesn't dive into full blown magic, instead of this vaguely real, vaguely not thing they have going where the protagonist ends up high and experiencing an incredibly realistic drug trip, or leveling a tattoo or whatever particular system is available.
Paul's sympathetic double sin removal should have gone immediately out the window considering he proceeds to brag about how he used his daughter to forge letters to noore during that same missions climax
The reason why ajay s mom didnt tell ajay about the war is written on a paper on a shelf at the beggining of the mission thruth and lies, where you fight yuma. read all the words wrote fully in capital leters
That game was great, I was so hyped while playing it...but now, I really wished choices actually had real consequences...like if you don't kill Amita or Sabal, they kill the other and try to kill you after. I'd love the royal castle to be explorable and find some letters that described Pagan and Ishwari's past. More Pagan face-to-face, the possibility to join him...or even make your own damn decisions (Ajay is just a puppet, here, and it's annoying af at some point). And Bhadra! Some missions about her after the end of the game would be so interesting than just make her disappear...
I would've wanted a DLC where I fight the Golden Path with Pagan Min's help. Finally get to shoot some goddamn guns, right?

That should not be DLC. That should be main game.
I would love to fight for the royal army of pagan

Yeah it made me sick in the stomach
aidangame theey deserves a swfit kick in the ass
And prison nightmare edcape
I loved them
They were the best 5 missions in the game
16:19
Ajay imagined Yuma as Kalinag ( ts funny since you show the footage right when you say that you have no Idea where she is)
I guess she wanted to gut Ajay personally?
Yeah it still doesn’t really make much sense
1000 Sins should be added for Unskipable Cut Scenes
This is the first game where I literally 100% side with the quote-unquote antagonist
You might need to add a sin counter for finding the royal guard before the game tells you about them
Should've taken 5 sins off for the buzzsaw. Fuggin love that weapon
One more sin, in game the royal guard assaulters and defenders use P416s. But in the cutscenes (like the one where Ajay is in the bus at the start of the game) they use AK47s
6:05 “Hits desk” THANK YOU!
I really hate it when there is no possibility of a positive outcome in games like this.
Another sin at the mission where you must kill either Amita or Sabal: before getting to the target, you must kill Golden Path members. That makes you a traitor.
Here's a theory, Pegan Min is skinny Kim Jong Un.
Still waiting for that Asura's Wrath video.
J H still waiting for that Bayonetta 2 video
I believe Pagan saw Ishwari's eyes in Ajay when he says he recognizes those eyes.
Nice video as always Dart! :D
Imo Far Cry 4 is better than 5
Arash The Great better than three
@@supercooki1429 FC3 is amazing, such a fucking good game, but FC4 is better that's the fact
@@gabrielnascimento1021 FC3>FC4>FC5, That's it.

Regarding the "drug that makes you envision the future" you could've easily connected it to the fact that mysticism is canon in the game. That's how the Shangri-La scrolls worked, the game respects the belief of the culture the game is set around, so it isn't really illogical in the game. Moreover Yuma didn't use drugs, she used that same magic, refer to how she made Paul bring a Hindu saint from India who could translate Sanskrit for her. So she was using mystic powers rather than drugs.
Also you missed a sin: it doesn't matter whose missions you choose before Jalendu Temple. The game says that the ending will depend on how much you lean towards someone but you could do 100% Sabal missions before Jalendu and choose Amita at Jalendu to get Amita's ending. So the game was just making excuses for you to go zig-zag into double standards despite the fact that only the Jalendu choice makes a difference.
10:30 "Make Kyrat a tax shelter or start a bitcoin mining operation." Good idea when there is basically no infrastructure and bitcoin prize is fluctuating when it's 2014.
5:27 so handsome Jack? Edit: also dying light
The CIA turning on Ahjay is not all that surprising, I mean that is what the CIA is known for.
Now I can’t think of stranger things when I hear should I stay or go? by the clash. I think The obvious choice for next video would be yakuza 0.
Just finished binging all your videos, and you upload another already? Sweet!
Yakuza Zero next
Far cry 5 secret ending just ruined FC4 one. On top of being not that interesting to begin with.
MérouLN To be fair, ALL of far cry 5s endings suck, narratively speaking, muddling any message the game might have. Though I have issues with 4, mainly because Ajay's participation in the story is a big "why?", the endings' message reflects the what actually was going on over the course of the game
6:13 the word “safety” is spelled “ssfety”. Sin for typo (Ding)
been waiting so long for this
Yeah, i've been waiting for the original outlast. :(
藍育翔
typical toxicity is typical

"The essence of any good story is the ability to subvert the expectations of the audience"
*Has The Last Jedi flashbacks*
“All you had to do was stay at the damn table, Ajay!”
Everytime Pagen Min opened his mouth or popped up on screen, you should've removed a sin.
Please do everything wrong with Yakuza 0, I need daddy Kiryu.
"I'm betting that thing with the cows was demonetized"
OOOOOOOO...!
I had never played any of the other Far Cry games, so I thought this one was fantastic, THAT said, I definitely agree with your sins of the game. In many places, it seemed to teeter on the brink of brilliance, but tripped at the one-yard line. Either way, I loved the video, got some good laughs, well done!
Honestly I feel like this video has some issues personally.
Did anyone notice in FC4 when Noore jumps to her death a bear, wolf and some leopard all three happily eat him together.
12:10 it should be noted amita is deliberately misleading you. Bhadra (the teenage girl you meet) is meant to 'marry' the god; i.e. become a priestess. So it's not that Sabal would be marrying a 'little girl', it's that he'd make Bhadra become a priestess and lead a celibate life.
Oh, and Sabal is way more interesting if you side with him. He also is the only one that makes any sense to side with, because he represents the golden path; Amita wants to do away with Kyrat's culture & past, which is sole reason the golden path exists (because they're meant to be stopping it. Tl;dr: Amita just wants to replace pagan min with herself.
14:05 oh, and Willis has no reason to save Ajay here either; he's a combatant for the Golden Path, effectively a terrorist, and the US has no beef with pagan min anymore (as willis just said). Meaning the whole "US citizen" thing doesn't hold much weight anymore.
Picking Amita in one of the missions makes you destroy a beautiful monument which I regret smh.
God I fucking love Pagan. Also I wish it turned out that he was ajay's dad.
he was kinda like a step-dad towards him
amita and Subal are the true villans i wish you could side with pegan and fight the golden path
Dying light please (also youtube has voting polls now, I don’t think I’ve ever seen you use one, just letting you know in case you don’t actually know)
10:14 "He just spoke to you in clear English"
r/whooosh
The secret ending is 100% the best ending.
I would totally buy a game about the weird "father-son" relationship where you become Pagan's heir and you go around killing rebels and having fun being an asshole.
Francesco ageed man
Congrats on almost 200k subs!
Congratulations this is your hundred video.
at the table near the end when he tells you to wait you can wait 10 minutes instead of running away and he'll come back and then theres a different ending
I’d like it if you remade the Uncharted 4 sins video, by me it was rushed... really really rushed
Dead space or God of War 3. Great Job on the video 👌👌
11:02
“You’re dead?! *THAT IS AMAZING* “
Plus 1 sin for mispelling here
What is weird is that in the game Pagan's hair is swooping to the right from his perspective but the game cover art etc show it going the opposite way
"Ajay, in order to achieve the American dream, joined the US Army in 2006 and served with the 82nd Airborne Division. Two years later he successfully joins the US Special Forces (Green Berets). He qualified as an 18B Weapons Sergeant. He served two tours in Iraq and two in Afghanistan. He became a proficient parachutist, sniper and confident user of explosives. Later skilled in hand to hand combat, reconnaissance, infiltration and combat survival. He later retired at the rank of sergeant first class after seven years of service and won a Silver Star for bravery."
So yeah, it's not that weird that Ajay is not afraid of killing.
Wikipedia is a hell of a thing
I freaking love your videos can you do a everything wrong with sonic mania plus video please I’m so curious how many sins it gots
Heeeeyyy. I've been watching your videos for quite a bit. And I have a thing to ask you. Could you use the game's subtitles, would be better for those people who don't have English as mother language. Thanks
One thing that bothers me in the last two Far Cry games, as you pointed out, is that an arguable good ending is one in which you do nothing. You let what happens happens, or in 5's case not happen. 4, you betray Pagan Min and go on to establish one of two Golden Path's, who each do something evil. Admittedly, 4's hidden ending ends too quickly to show what might happen, but at least it's not what the Golden Path had planned. But, in all honesty, Ajay could very well leave and then work with the Golden Path anyway.
Another thing, I don't understand why Ubisoft doesn't dive into full blown magic, instead of this vaguely real, vaguely not thing they have going where the protagonist ends up high and experiencing an incredibly realistic drug trip, or leveling a tattoo or whatever particular system is available.
11:22 What about Ajay's mother? wasn't she not only a member but a founder of the Golden Path?
Paul's sympathetic double sin removal should have gone immediately out the window considering he proceeds to brag about how he used his daughter to forge letters to noore during that same missions climax
even though i agreed with what you said. this is still my favorite far cry game, its just done better than the rest.
This probably my favorite game tbh
The reason why ajay s mom didnt tell ajay about the war is written on a paper on a shelf at the beggining of the mission thruth and lies, where you fight yuma. read all the words wrote fully in capital leters
I love your new sins counter layout
plz man, i love the Witcher 3, u gotta do that one. Ur sinning videos r the best
1:45 Maybe the soldriers are too scared to say anything
Yakuzo 0 please.
Ajay is able to kill people easy because he was in the US army prior to the events in Far Cry 4.
never stated in game. this is basically just fan theory the wikia added.
please make everything wrong with far cry 2
Oh you Gotta be kiding 😂😂 you finally did it 😂
I love the last sin(punting mom's ash over the mountian)so much. LOL
Also, Yakuza 0(It's going to be a longgg video).
That game was great, I was so hyped while playing it...but now, I really wished choices actually had real consequences...like if you don't kill Amita or Sabal, they kill the other and try to kill you after. I'd love the royal castle to be explorable and find some letters that described Pagan and Ishwari's past. More Pagan face-to-face, the possibility to join him...or even make your own damn decisions (Ajay is just a puppet, here, and it's annoying af at some point). And Bhadra! Some missions about her after the end of the game would be so interesting than just make her disappear...
yakuza 0
Dartigain: the Canon ending is were you side with pagen me:ok
