As someone that loves Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul, it's cool that Giancarlo Esposito and Michael Mando are in Far Cry as villains, and now in the same game.

Some lines for Vaas in the script were changed to what Mando came up with. Especially his most quoted "definition of insanity".

I’ve played literally hundreds of games throughout my life and nothing comes as close to my heart as far cry 3 holds a special place in my childhood. Amazing game sometimes I wish I could go back and play it for the first time again, there’s nothing like that first time experience playing a game like that. Phenomenal acting and one of the best villains ever seen in a game

[@TheKeksletsplay]

Yes...the first time that opening scene...never ever they could make a character close to vaas. After blackflag, everything in ubisoft went downhill. I appreciate that they recognize what far cry 3 is, but i hate that they can't replicate the feeling of it and not just vaas, everything. 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...

@@TheKeksletsplay To create something truly unique you need to get out of your comfort zone and take risks. 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.

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

Vaas is one of the greatest antagonists in gaming history. Kudos to you, Michael Mando.

[@abigbutterstick1780]

Vaas and Handsome Jack are my 2 favorite videogame antagonists, I doubt anyone will ever pass them.

[@Memedude_L1]

​@@abigbutterstick1780 Yoo vass and handsome jack are my favorite too. The way their characters act in different ways and execute it perfectly

[@TheGentleCreepers]

Hi Vaas! 😊

[@MCILLDISSNEELAND]

Im gonna buy FC6 just because of Michael aka Vaas

[@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!

[@jamishmcquo7590]

"i really like that he is a calm happy kind of playful childish character ;)" 3:54

[@elbasanshabani8191]

to be honest i wish there was a remake of farcry 3, i loved everything in it, the maps, the grind to 100 percent with the relics, the towers and liberaries to conquer, the animals to skin for better leveled equipment the special weapons. and the co op mode that is different from the regular campaign, playing it with my brother on split screen. just everything....besides the graphics and fps. the reason why i want a remake is for the farcry engine and gameplay/story to look more like farcry 6, detail and graphics wise.

[@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.

[@wardog1273]

Far Cry existed before Mando, but he, with Vaas's character, created the franchise's identity. Mad respect for this legend

[@loudtaste1046]

Been loving him in better call Saul it’s great seeing him playing his most iconic character

[@tomago8482]

If I had the chance to obtain acting lessons from Michael I absolutely would. He is incredibly talented and an inspiration.

[@echad6259]

I have been loving the DLC. Thank you.

[@hansangermueller4022]

Micheal you were my childhood bro like that game was my everything and you were the driving motivation thank you sir

[@bencematula180]

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

[@nemesisencounter2060]

Pagan if I'm not mistaken was Troy Baker

[@thihaaung647]

Vaas deserves a standalone game where we can play as him and do craziest shits. That would be awesome!

[@dancingspider915]

That would be awesome!

[@Uncleprime4165]

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

[@6Twisted]

Vaas has got to be the best villain of all time. He's so unpredictably psychotic.

[@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

[@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

[@lifenote1943]

amazing interview, he's so chill!

[@PatriaPrimum]

Imagine Vaas and Tuco in the same room together lmfao

[@solgatesvisual2828]

tuco would die first. Now just give him Lalo, it would be an epic battlefield on alburqueue

[@stefanjoelsson5052]

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

[@cosmin-chan8646]

Just give this man an Oscar already

[@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.

[@amanshaw7121]

Fry Car 3 was the first game i played in the installment ♥️🔥 Really i was really surprised that Vaas wasn't the main villain.

[@Tauq_]

Vaas wasn't the villain, He was ruined by Citra and Hoyt.
