The gameplay, the storytelling, the environment, the characters...i miss the times where games had a meaning and i wonder if it's because i got older and I've slowly see everything on replay or because they really can't pull off something that stands up to the level of a FC3...

Ubisoft is being held back by their board of directors to produce games that make profits and pay the bills, because using the FC3 formula is safe. They know it works and sells, why create something new? But in order to break away from the FC3 formula and bring out something truly unique again, Ubisoft needs to understand that they have to start taking risks again, just like they did with FC2 and FC3.

@@emulation2369 actually yeah that sounds super fun dummy

[@Kurdati]

Michael Mando is the type of guy you can only recognize for one thing. Even after all this year, his persona of Vaas is as fresh as he was the first time I heard of him

[@Uncleprime4165]

Awww, Michael Mando is so precious, dude!!! Give him more good movies, games and shows to played in

[@charlescalvin4657]

When the videogame Oscars are going to be a real thing, this man will win for sure one

[@mrb2349]

Vaas was one of the best game (and even movie) villains ever. Such a multifaceted character: a violent, unmerciful tropical island pirate exempt from any laws, but also a knowledgeable, communicative villain with very valid social criticisms. All in all, a beautifully designed, written and portrayed villain who singlehandedly saved the franchise and changed gaming forever. Thanks Michael, keep rocking it.

Giancarlo Esposito: Ahahahaha I was acting..... Or Was I? Michael Mando: Have I ever told you what the definition of insanity is? Have I?

[@MagronesBR2]

From the streets of ABQ to Rook Island

[@stefanjoelsson5052]

He is so well spoken to , it was a pure joy listening to this interview.

[@artersaske]

One of the best Interviews I ever seen

[@jessicaramirez5764]

It would be so awesome if you guys did a Pagan and Joseph interview with their voice actors too! I would love to see the evolution behind it all for the other two villians too.

[@Alaiz666]

You just cannot not admire the work of this guy. I love how such a crazy character is described in such an eloquent and descriptive way. Michael Mando is a legend.

[@MHDBeatz]

Absolutely a legend🔥

[@LifeGivesL3M0N5_]

Judging from what Michael said it seems Vaas is actually the good guy. He never intended to hurt anyone but the influence of drugs and other stuff have caused him to be a split person.

[@hanieh_art]

I don't think he means that Vaas is a good guy. He is somewhat of an anomaly, a person who is trapped in an infinite childhood. Children don't understand death and pain as adults do, so Vaas is kind of a pityable character but not good or safe to be around.

[@NicolasCuffia]

I really like this guy. He always seems to get seriously involved in his characters.

[@zenicehero9154]

Its really amazing the fact that Vaas is back hes a iconic and cool villain, Michael Mando is a great and awesome actor and gave Life to the character!

[@bencematula180]

I hope the next two villains will have an interview like this.

[@nemesisencounter2060]

Pagan if I'm not mistaken was Troy Baker

[@Christhewiztv]

My entry point into Far Cry. I'm glad he's back and I'm very glad that everyone seems to be enjoying this.

[@Daanyaal_]

Im a big fan of this guy and his portrayal of vaas is amazing I’m so happy he gets to play scorpion in the MCU

[@easyyo6784]

a living legend! thank you !

[@Pthumerian01]

Far cry 3 was one of the best, that tropical island setting was such a vibe, and even more so during the summer, I felt like I was on vacation

[@simonjack9699]

When he talks about coming back to reprise role that's exactly how Michael C Hall described coming back as Dexter Morgan his words were it's almost like his character Dexter Morgan was always there he never left. Same with Micheal in terms of Vaas

[@andrewachu13]

One of the BEST VIDEO GAMES VILLAIN of all time ! You always get scared of meeting him and he’s so mesmerizing whenever he’s on screen.

[@sneakyfoxgamer7484]

I just love seeing this guy as vaas again, it just makes me wanna go back to far cry 3!

[@coolplayer7416]

Brilliant actor! He deserves to be better known by everybody

[@ViperdriveMusic]

BCS S6 E3 brought me here 😢

[@ReDKnOcK-FGC]

VAAS.. you are one in many but best to use name.. insanity.. that you deserve it all... thank you so much for Far cry 3

[@junior_hallad]

Da um arrepio na alma só de ouvir a voz dessa lenda ❤️

[@morenogalindo2149]

gado

[@waltonsimons3503]

Damn, three games later and even Ubisoft knows Michael Mando was both the representative of Far Cry at its peak, and the one antagonist most will remember.

[@SCP049darkness]

honestly the performance in Far cry 3 and also Better call saul is phenomenal he deserves more Roles in Movies n Shows and a ton more recognition for sure.

[@KerMaWaffLe]

“Underneath it all, he is a human, and before it all, he is a child. Once you find the child, you find the character.” That’s one hell of a philosophical quote. Now I see where Vaas got his sick and twisted, but thought provoking Philosophies.
