8:55 that run actually was terrifying. The tone shift in his voice and how it started off almost jokingly just everything about it was genuinely intimidating. Vaas pulled a special place in my heart and I will always see him as the best and my personal favorite but this is definitely a close second
18:10 "Children sew our clothes. Sweatshops build out phones. And Viviro saves millions of lives. Do you think that those lives care where it comes from?" That is an amazing quote that can make every Westerner question themselves
I think the easiest response to this quote is that no, they don't, which is precisely the problem. People absolutely should. The start to that is using our privilege as Westerners who have the ability to choose where our products come from to raise awareness to those injustices. My pleasure shouldn't come at the cost of another's freedom or life. Indeed part of that problem is that people don't have the luxury to choose where their necessities come from, which addressing is also part of the solution. All comes full circle for a more just society.
This is a close-mindedness that just makes me roll my eyes. It's using past sins to justify current sins or sins to take. Which is ironic, considering Castillo's end. Castillo becomes so worried that his past sins will get his kid killed, that he kills him himself. He uses that to justify his own actions. Could Dani have taken care of Diego? Maybe. They certainly took care of each other throughout the game. Maybe he saw that. Maybe not.
The complete lack of regard to the invasion of the capital, ignoring his generals and being obsessed with other things (like designing the hotel) during his final moments is reminiscent to how Hitler reacted before the Battle of Berlin or the Invasion of Normandy
Even I remembered it. Hitler shed a tear when he was told of the invasion.. Not because his people are under threat.. But because Hitler never got his city
@@dominicp9296 Forgive me if I am reaching, but are you some sort of a holocaust denier ? No one really asks something like that about Hitler, unless they know more about him, in which case they probably deny it.
yeah, it looks so mediocre compared to his voice, you can see, the face doesn't fit the lines much I would like to see the original cut without CGI might have not as good compositing, but definitely better in the other ways
The way giancarlo delivers the dialogues with such a wave and momentum and passion is what makes him a unique actor, u can tell just by the way he speaks what an experienced guy he is
Pagan Min and Anton Castillo both have to be my favorite Far Cry villains ever. Sure they are dictators, but they are often pretty chill and likable when they have screentime. Troy Baker did an amazing performance playing as Pagan and Giancarlo Esposito is just too brilliant at playing as Anton. Truly amazing villains.
It's interesting to see Giancarlo playing different kind of villain, but it shows that his usual performance is much suitable. Most of the time in the game he is just another loud villain with principles or something (writing is poor there), but the best scenes are where he is silent or talks a few words(I'm talking about the "Run" scene). Fascinating, really.
I can't forgive Juan for taking that shot. That reckless action got Clara killed. I blame him. Clara was the only one remotely capable of leading Yara after that - everyone else isn't. And he got her killed. There was NO reason to shoot the kid while Anton had Clara at gunpoint. NONE.
Like... what was the logic of shooting the kid instead? What did Juan think was gonna happen? Was Anton gonna be like "Ah shucks, Diego is dead. Flushes all my plans down the drain. I'm gonna hop on the nearest boat and leave Yara. See you later."
@@Zythus07 Maybe like this: "Diego is dead, now Anton is gonna die without using Diego to extend his own life." Still, that would get Clara killed. He just had to be patient, he would have gotten that shot. Anton was in a corner of the room. He would have had to poke his head eventually. But nope. Just... I still can't forgive him for that.
Before all of that in his younger days, he was the "Big Brother Almighty" at a College in Atlanta. Then he moved to Bed-Stuy Brooklyn and was fighting The Pizza Store Owner with Radio Raheem 😂
Not really, he paints it as america being the first nation to enslave people and develop from it but that's far from true, America's actually the first country to end slavery while tons of other countries before and after all used slavery
@@frummer8373 The fact that someone does something bad and gives them advantage over others and decides it's bad is pretty laughable, and the current state of corporations that hold their workers hostage paying them minimum wage, always trying to find a loophole in the system to make the most profit, hell even look at the state of insulin prices. They did something bad, replaced it with something that is "acceptable" but still bad. It doesn't make it any better, you were a slave to a person before, now you are a slave to a corporation.
Why did anton's leukemia suddenly worsen? He said viviro stopped working 6 months ago, but at the start of the game and up until the interview with the american journalist, he looks healthy
At the end, when he was still planning the model of the city, it really was sad. When he said 'I want "Yarans to catch the horizon at every intersection." it showed just how much he truly wanted a better world for his people. And when he was talking to his nephew about killing Carlos, he said "How many of those farmers will want to help rebuild paradise now?". That 'rebuild paradise' line wasn't just some line of bullshit he fed to people in his propaganda. He honestly felt that's what he was doing for Yara. I feel like there was a bit of Lenin and Hugo Chavez in this character. Both truly believed they were doing the right thing for their people, in a 'I know what these people want more than they do.' kind of way.
I'm really glad Giancarlo Esposito got to play a villain that wasn’t just "Gus, but in a video game." Dude genuinely has range and absolutely chews the scenery.
Sometimes I wonder, what would've happened if Anton had won the whole thing? I mean realistically speaking, had he created some form of alliance with other countries for instance America, or perhaps a much fitting alliance like Russia or China to get more backup he would've won the war, no?
He wins the war if you aren't there to save Clara's attempt to unite the burgeoning factions. You see it in the secret ending, after that more than likely he is able to make the Viviro and continue the human testing to perhaps make it good enough to save his own life. Yara will leverage its control of Vivro likely to ensure it is never put under permanent sanction again, and secure its independence as a nation through control over this drug every nation wants. Money probably does end up coming to Yara and for the 'True Yaran' social class everything ends up perfectly fine. Diego grows up, and based on his empathy he likely would lead Yara into a genuinely good and stable future. Clara was right at her heart that ending the cycle of revolution and tyranny would take a lifetime, and for both the revolution and the tyrants the wheels to make it so were already in motion. I don't know if Dani staying will end up ensuring it, but depending on your morals you can argue forever which is the better way of things. The brutal and inhumane method to get there faster, or the humane and principled method that has unfortunately failed before but comes without all the baggage.
Realistically, he would've won anyway. Libertad has six people, the FND has thousands, but the fun of these games is crippling a much larger faction. If Anton won (and what I'm assuming happens in the ending where he does win) is Yara resorts back to a "half-normal". The thing is, Yara was a democracy until recently (before the game starts). His dictatorship began when the country was put on marshal law as a result of the protests. I'm assuming marshal law would be lifted, because it could cause trouble for him in the eyes of the rest of the world if he keeps in enacted after the war ends. Obviously, he wants to stay authoritarian, so he'll have to do so by finding loopholes in laws. Basically just a corrupt democracy. He'd finish his Viviro project and sell it. His goal was to make the country rich and cure himself, he'd probably accomplish that.
You can leave for Miami early in the game, it time jumps to you chilling on the beach listening to the radio and the news reports special forces raided Libertad and killed the leadership ending the Civil War
there was a fascist before Castro named Batista, they were inspired by him. The terrorists in Yara represent the communists, who mostly aren't supposed to be the good guys.
No it takes place in 2021 (the year which it had been released) if you do the secret ending there is clear mention of covid in the radio and far cry 3 released in 2012 so 9yrs apart
It's annoying when a rebellion has no plans or know how on running the country in the event that they win, and then all that effort, time, energy, resources and manpower is wasted when the country just slips back into tyranny because of economical mismanagement. So stupid.
27:48 whole cutscene is a reference to the movie downfall where Hitler when the Soviets surrounded berlin he was making plans to rebuild berlin ignoring the possibility of city being taken
I just noticed how unnatural the movement of the first person perspective camera is. They treat it like a regular camera, and not as something more organic. (Yes, i can differentiate between the first person scenes, and the cinematic scenes)
Pisses me off that he and his regime are largely based on that of Fulgencio Batista's (the dictator before Castro), when the oppressors of Yara should've been commie pigs, like in actual Cuba, instead of depicting them like heroes. Kind of an insult to actual Cubans but still, what a fucking brilliant performance from Giancarlo Esposito, like always. Had it been another actor I wouldn't've bought this game.
@@mr.overthink2179 The commies were substantially worse, as they always are regardless of when or where they manage to get to power [Lenin/Trotsky/Hitler/Mao/Saddam Hussein/joey B/trudeau/castro/maduro/etc.]. There is no one worse than a commie.
