[@ljcsofgmomas]

I liked how he wanted dani to be his general so he could take credit for how badass dani is

[@morningghost5940]

He was soo evil I hated him soo much so I agree he was a good villain but comparing him to Pagan or Vaas then he is not rlly that good. Vaas and Pagan had humor and that makes them more interesting

[@DTLions26]

The only problem with Anton is his lack of screen time unlike other villains

[@NinjaMaster-og8ti]

I like Anton not because I found him compelling. But because of how scary he was. Giancarlo does an amazing job at making villains terrifying not through actions, but through words.

[@burgbass]

It really should be a crime to hire an actor like Giancarlo and then barely give him any screen time. I’m sure there’d be more development if they actually gave him room to develop but with the story we got, Anton just comes off as a pretty typical unapologetically evil dictator type.

[@kpdelaney6460]

pagan's my favorite for sure. He's just so charismatic and he's so warm towards ajay because they're family. Vaas is amazing too and his acting was beyond incredible, but Pagan was just so fun to be around

Hoyt needed to be included in this. Whether he was first, last, or somewhere in between, he had to be involved. He is, after all, the actual main villain far cry 3. Isn’t he? We could even take this further and include the seed family as well as citra as villains considering she was just putting you and vaas against each other. Anyways, that’s my rant

[@RedNightFox]

I agree, I really was expecting to see Hoyt Volker in here. Apparently Vaas stole all the attention and in the end not many people actually care about Hoyt being an antagonist.

[@lukasgus8434]

@@RedNightFox hoyt was pretty good too. I think he had the most villainous motivations after all, because wasn't it human trafficking he was into? Vaas is just a madman because of citra, Pagan is the king and wants to assert himself. Anton's motivation is money and power and whatever. But to be motivated by human trafficking is so crazy for a video game. I don't remember the game that well tbh, so I could be wrong, but again, thats my thoughts

He knew what was coming and did his past acts for the greater good and the player was trying to stop this for, what was generally thought of as the goal to establish a resistance. However what this resistance wasn’t aware of was the cult’s reason. So let me put it to you this way. He did wrong things for a good purpose.

[@Icy_Princess]

Joseph is my number 1 by a landslide. He is crazy, yet he acts reasonable. Unlike Vaas for instance who just wants to see you dead. He gives you plenty of chances to either walk away, join them, or if you wish, fight them. And only if you fight him he will try and hurt you. This is what makes him so special. He just wants to do his thing and isn't bothered by you unless you give him a reason. Also what makes him my number 1 is simply the way he's talking and his antics as well as his promises of a better and easier life if you just accept him as your father. I find myself in the spot of Faith more often in life than not, no purpose, desperate, depressed. Then Joseph came along and suddenly you had a purpose. You weren't a nobody anymore, you had reason to be happy again. What I mean is, I totally get Faith. I get why she joined, why she believed it. Because I'm in a similar position myself like she was before she came across Joseph. This is how cults work and with a charismatic leader like Joseph, unhappy people will join you left right and center. Not saying I would join but I get why people do it. Furthermore, Joseph always warns us about impending doom, the collapse as he likes to call it. Is he wrong? Aren't we always almost at war with each other? Sooner or later something will happen, it just needs one fool to light the match and a chain reaction will start that drags the whole world into it. He isn't a false prophet, he is quite cunning in warning us about future events that will eventually happen. This is what makes him my number 1 villain. Or isn't he a true villain after all?

[@TheFatNerd]

Yea same. i agree joseph would have to be my number 1 as well. i like to compare him to thanos because unlike vaas and pagan joseph feels like he has purpose behind his villainy..

Sounds like the Jackal. He's not a charismatic leader but he never tries to harm the player. He's not even a faction boss; he's literally just a Nietzsche-qouting merchant who happens to deal in arms. He also has a really cool cancer allegory between himself and the unnamed country and it seems his meeting the journalist changed him (jackal tapes). Plus he gets a "heroic" death or as close as one can get in the darkest and most grounded entry in the franchise.

In my opinion Jacob seed is the best antagonist in the series, he’s so intimidating, and his “only you” song was terrifying to me, and what makes him a better villain is that the way he brainwashes the protagonist and the the player into killing everyone they see, Remember the white puppet in his tests? As we all know the puppet was Eli the whole entire time, like he really made us kill Eli without hesitation, Also remember the “your being hunted”? That’s the first thing in the game that actually scared me.

I'll always remember how Michael Mando and Vaas weren't even supposed to be villains of Far Cry 3. Mando quite literally just stumbled onto the casting room, uninvited. His performance was so beloved by the casting director that their original villain plan was scrapped, and Mando was brought on as the new antagonist Vaas. Giancarlo Esposito is terrifying.

[@fartingunicorn6962]

Jackal always saw the main character as an equal. At the beginning of the game he stood taller but at the end he stood equal. He was a Man of his words, whatever choice you make Jackal dies with you in the end. He didn’t fear anything and his only drive was to simply end a war. He saves you every time you meet with him. Which gives whatever character you choose in Far Cry 2 the lightest bit more special. He also gave a quote that damn near compares to Vaas’s insanity quote. “You can’t break a man the way you break a horse or a dog, the harder you break a man, the taller he stands”. It’s shows his commitment and I feel contrasts very nicely with all the other Villians in Far Cry. Seeing their backstory’s shows what they did and how they did bigger than what themselves expected. What you see with the Seed family, Vaas, Pagan etc. Jackal is the foundation of the Far Cry Villains.

[@Bobby-ct2yj]

Jackal is the greatest FC antagonist for two reasons : First he's nicely written, introduced and useful, he needs the protagonist all way long to make the story end (you help him pass weapons for civilians, he help you not to die in a desert storm, you finally help him die as urself. He is as useful as you to the scenario. Secondly he's the only one not having ridiculously violent scenes just to tell the player : "Oh look that's the Bad Guy, cause he makes Bad Guy things" like Pagan or Vaas. Ok guys we got it you are the vilain thanks

[@Nzzertral]

Honestly as much as this won’t happen. I want a far cry game where the villain is someone who you’re forced to cooperate with. Like both you and the villain are tied together and MUST cooperate to get out because he got you both in a situation that will have you both killed but you need each other in order to live creating this crazy dynamic and more time with a villain who can at some point run off for some big huge showdown or maybe bring in that secondary villain so around the end the two characters don’t exactly have to agree or get along but they find a common purpose to not kill each other seamlessly work together and the level progression could be tied to it as well. Instead of “leveling up” or upgrading some system it’s like “oh these guys trust each other just enough to show some of their tricks and teach the other to do it yet enough to make both characters feel different to play giving you a good reason to swap between the two

[@eldenlion5850]

In my own opinion Hoyt was the real Villain of Far Cry 3, Vaas was just a puppet to him and if while Vaas is crazy I also view him as someone who is constantly backed into a corner, first from Citra, then from Hoyt Pagan is the most likeable villain, the way he treats Ajay like a son after losing Ishwari and Lakshmana seems wholesome in my eyes, even while Ajay spends the entirety of FC4 trying to kill Pagan While Joseph had good intentions by starting Eden’s Gate, the way he executed things was horrible, he also is an incredibly broken man, I don’t think any sane person would murder there Daughter like that

Solid list until the end. I hate when people rank Vaas as the best villain of all the games. He's just an insane drug lord, his motivation for what he does is purely for evil and profit.

The most memorable Vaas quote to me is the quote about his family. "So they say to me, they say Vaas, Vaas, who the FUCK is it going to be? THEM or ME, ME or THEM? Like, like you know, like they fucking think that I need to make a fucking choice. By the way this lighter really sucks."

[@digitalwarrior5862]

it's truly Vaas, Pagin Min and Joeseph Seed. these guys were the best villains Far Cry and Ubisoft ever made and i am excited to not only see if it's true that Vaas is the protagonist for Far Cry 7, but to see Pagin Min as the protagonist in Far Cry 8 and Joeseph Seed as the protagonist for Far Cry 9

[@kieronspiteri]

As if that will ever happen

[@mrqloak1453]

Almost all of the far cry games have the same vibe of "You were not supposed to be here"

[@chrisflores4788]

The best villains are those that have been fleshed out the most, along with stellar performances by the actors portraying them. This is why my favorites are Vaas and Joseph. Michael Mando and Greg Bryk just steal the show and run away with it. The fact that the characters actually look like the actors helps a lot. Many great performances are dulled by the CGI treatment.

[@roryb5512]

I emailed them begging for a Vaas game. Such an arc, backstory. At least we got the dlc.

[@Specz187]

I know the video is a couple months old but greg byrks performance in far cry 5 tops vaas. He actually connected to his character and his character wanted the best for the world. I say Joseph and his family is the first on my ranking and second would be pagen min. Because I would definitely choose to eat the crab Rangoon over dealing with the world lol

[@xanderrob5410]

I really hope Giancarlo Esposito (Anton) get more lines in future updates or gets a dlc in a future game.

[@beshbreaknumber1fan]

My favourite bit about Vaas is he's not even the main villain of FC3, Hoyt is, Vaas was supposed to be a lieutenant but he's that good of a villain he comes off as the actual main antagonist

[@KirillEnin27]

Yes. However, Vaas is the main antagonist of 60-70% Far Cry 3.

[@Smirving]

My favorite line from vass is 'You are me i am you '

[@zlatan_2197]

Krieger isn't only antagonist in Far Cry 1. There's Doyle, and he's the actual plot twist in the end. While Krieger was obvious villain, Doyle was the one actually helping you get out of the island and save Val, or at least you think he's helping you. At the end of the game, after you defeat Krieger, Doyle reveals himself as traitor who wants to sell super serum on the black market, going as far as to trick Jack and Val into injecting themselves with mutagen before eliminating Krieger and most of his mercenaries and trigens. I'm not saying that it suddenly makes the plot so much better, just pointing it out.

[@thebatmanofneo-gotham5667]

I haven't played Far Cry's 1 and 2, and I just bought 6, so my list will be based on the games I've played so far: 1. Vaas 2. Joseph Seed 3. Pagan Min 4. Mickey and Lou 5. Ull and Batari

[@loganlinkous4884]

I feel like the seed family is a little better than pegin

[@MGdiSavoia]

I kinda like Anton even if I was expecting more from him and farcry 6 in general but my favourite it's definetely Pagan, I love his relationship with Ajay

[@thesouthernbearsfan]

I want to play these games so bad I want to start with five but should I?

[@Kamletue]

Start with two

[@Harry-dg1ki]

John Seed was really terrifying even if he isnt even the main villain.

[@tominatorxx]

I'll go with: 1) The Jackal 2) Pagan 3) Vaas then there's a huge gap 4) Buddies (some people might not get this one, others will) 5) Joseph 6) Buck 7) John 8) Citra 9) Hoyt 10) Faith 11) Jacob 12) Yuma Honourable mentions: - The crocodile that jumped out of the water and attacked me in FC3 - The malaria that tried to kill me, as well as my shotgun exploding in my hands (the bastard!) in Far Cry 2 - That motherf*cking honey badger in FC4 - And the plane that landed on my head after I shot its pilot in FC5 Haven't played Primal, 6 and New Dawn. But from what I've seen from playthroughs, they wouldn't get close to the top 5 anyway... And I'm not going to put in the villains of Blood Dragon, 1 and the Instincts games because they were obvious B-movie villains. They did their job for the plot, but were never meant to be very complex characters.

[@shotgunnedzahee4780]

Malaria, is the true villain, you need the pills to survive.

[@janbornowski1267]

The crocodile is the best villain tbh

[@sohamacharya171]

@@janbornowski1267 What about the plane? It has motivation, yaknow, of revenge.

[@ioio2216]

Please explain me the things about buddies

[@tominatorxx]

@@ioio2216 In Far Cry 2 you had allies/buddies you could help with their side missions. Helping them upgraded your savehouses, which helped with making the game a little bit easier since you could get supplies there like syringes, grenades, etc. These buddies came to rescue you if you were downed in a fight. They also could die during the side missions or when rescuing you, which meant you had a buddy less to rely upon if something happened to you. That actually meant quite a bit in the incredibly hostile environment of Far Cry 2. However, at the end of the game all the buddies that are still alive betray you and try to kill you because they want the suitcase of diamonds you have (which you want to use to bribe the guards at the border). Basically more buddies that are alive during the game make the game slightly easier, but the final firefight will be a lot harder.

[@fcfatitan6088]

Farcry 3 will for EVER be my absolute all time favorite game

[@Favk21]

I wholeheartedly agree this list. Vaas is the best, but Pagan is my favorite. Ubisoft's take on Handsome Jack.

[@garrin5922]

For Far Cry 4 and Far Cry 3. Your favorite will usually end up with which game you played first. In my case is Far Cry 4 which made Pagan Min my favorite villain in the series

[@baneofwar3304]

Pagan is extremely charismatic and likeble also pagan: shanks his own soldiers to death I do agree tho

[@skiytles807]

I think pegan is a winner he has that kind of joker feeling he’s normal in every way but his mental state and I think that is interesting

[@Psychology]

Far Cry 5 is my favorite Far Cry game. Love the characters, love the story and I love Faith(giggity). And like you said, the ending proved that Joseph was right all along.

[@johnsonwithat2322]

Bro Far Cry 3 gave us two unique and amazing villains in two different halves of the game. I always thought Hoyt was underrated.

[@xtap2072]

Pagan Min is my favorite that's because I like his personality and Far Cry 4 was my first Far Cry game so he has a special place in my heart

[@ShaggyGotSauce]

I personally think the Seed family are the best villains of Far Cry, and maybe even the best villains in video game history. The whole family tells a story. It's a story about trauma. More specifically, how trauma affects us, makes us into monsters when not treated correctly, and how it affects family. Every member of the Seed family have been molded by their specific traumas. Faith was a drug addict. She became a druglord. Jacob was a soldier, who was forced to betray, kill and eat his comrade. Now, he makes others betray their comrades and justifies his own actions to retain what little sanity he has left. John was abused and forced to admit to things he never did. Now he makes people confess. And Joseph? He keeps a tight grip on his family because he doesn't want a repeat of his wife's death - a tragic accident. He became a preacher to cope with loss. He became a 'father' to a family he was once denied.

[@Calebdub76]

It’s crazy that Gus fring and nacho varga voice a far cry antagonist

[@Datone594]

I can't explain why, but joseph seed and vaas feel like real people for some reason

[@gamercat8]

Theres no word 7:32 maybe alright calling us the deputy as the season is crazy don't ever think that way again

[@pechkastyagi1203]

amazing vid keep up the work

[@dravendfr]

I think we can all agree that the version of Far Cry 4 would’ve been a more fun/better story if the story was around teaming up with Pagan and battling with the concept of teaming up with him over the legacy of Mohan and the Golden Path. Though perhaps the concept of siding with a dictator might be too controversial which is kind of hilarious given what Amita and Sabal do.

[@typicaljaydjs7021]

Take me into your heart. Accept me as your saviour. Nail me to the fucking cross and let me be REBORN!-Vaas

[@willgoodwin9867]

I like Pagan the most because of how much attention he demanded. Whenever he was on the screen all eyes were on him and everyone was listening to him. I also don’t think there was a part where he was on the screen and I didn’t enjoy what I watched from him

[@DIY69696]

Bro I love your far cry vids sooo much

[@kabulman6973]

For me Vaas will be the best ever. I started playing Far Cry 3 just because of him because in that time I had no idea that Vass was not the protagonist of the Game and I have to say that Vass is the reason that I'm playing Far Cry games nowadays. After Vass I really liked Joseph and Pagan. Pagan with his style and the way he interact with ajay and Joseph for his religious believes.
