[QUOTE="Admin, post: 53818, member: 1"] Mainline Far Cry games always tell a new story, with new heroes and villains to get to know. However, Far Cry 6 breaks from tradition by including one direct, unexpected, and slightly puzzling connection to Far Cry 3. [I][B]This story contains major spoilers for the ending Far Cry 6. Don't read any further if you don't want to know more.[/B][/I] While Far Cry 6 very much tells its own story, the ending offers a surprising connection to Far Cry 3 by reintroducing the voice of Vaas (played by original actor Michael Mando). After the credits role, an audio-only scene plays out featuring a conversation between guerrilla fighter Juan Cortez and a character referred to in the captions as 'Smuggler', but who is very clearly the voice of Vaas. The conversation is fairly innocuous, discussing the final events of the game and establishing that Juan is supplying Viviro (the fictional cancer drug produced in the Far Cry 6's setting, Yara) to the smuggler. But the fact that Vaas is here at all is more interesting than the chat itself (which you can listen to in the video below). The thing is, Vaas is very much supposed to be dead. In Far Cry 3, protagonist Jason Brody stabs the iconic villain multiple times (although, to be fair, Vaas does appear to be [URL='https://youtu.be/fp_R74hPTQU?t=730']still faintly alive the last time we see him[/URL]).
