![]() If you consider taking over a safe-house in a two minute shoot-out an activity. Now what is there to do in your own insane mind? Not that much to be honest, across the map there are seventeen activities. Dig inside your mind, unlock your potential So you can start a new run with better guns. But let’s not forget they make death a little less punishing as well, like keeping a huge amount of cash after you die. But they add those much needed gadgets, camera, parachute and wingsuit. These are your long term investments and get more expensive with each upgrade. Each trait tree is also cleverly named after one of the sins. These are kept upon death and upgrade Vaas significantly. ![]() The first sink for your cash will probably be traits. Re-rolling weapon mods costs cash and the only free weapon is the sidearm. Each weapon comes with a random set of mods and the more you upgrade a case, the more mods you get. In order to unlock more weapons you need to unlock their respective challenges before you can buy them. The shop contains several Weapon cases that contain your primary, secondary and specialist weapons. Along with cash, any of the powers you collect to create your build this run will also disappear upon death. The mirror allows you to spend cash to upgrade Vaas’ traits.Ĭash is earned through killing enemies and completing challenges, cash is also lost upon death so spend it wise and fast. The shop allows you to collect your first and free weapon, the sidearm. Let’s get crazy.Īfter you wake up in your own mind you will be able to use the shop and mirror. But after a few runs you will notice it lacks some features and elements that makes roguelites so much fun. So not that much of a story to enjoy, but come on, roguelites are fun right? Right? Well yes, they are, and at first it looks like this Far Cry 6 DLC: Vaas is exactly that. And after an hour I was through my first run which included exploring the map at a slower pace and figuring out some of the mechanics. It’s safe to say that one play through will get you everything story related. After all, most of the story is brought through visions from the past that you witness, and are a part of the collectables you can look for. It all sounds very fun but the story-telling ends about ten minutes after you start playing. In order to escape you need to collect three pieces of the dragon blade, survive the challenges your own mind throws against you and overcome mindfucked puzzles. After waking up in a room full of televisions, the priestess Citra announces that you are trapped in your own insane mind. The story picks up right after you defeat Vaas in Far Cry 3 and you, as Vaas, die. ![]() ![]() Well, you can not be further away from what this Far Cry 6 DLC: Vaas is. If you are going into this DLC for a deep story about Vaas Montenegro and playing him as he slowly slips into insanity. So once I saw what this DLC was all about, I got ready to put my mind to it. Or switching up my go-to-build to try something new to overcome a certain boss or challenge. As seen earlier in my Curse of the Dead gods review I’m a sucker for overcoming challenges and learning from my mistakes. Far Cry 6 DLC: Vaas Insanity – Reviewīefore continuing I want to mention that I’m a huge fan of the roguelike and roguelite genres. Dying might be the best option but as a result you have to redo the same activities again. Your build is all janky and you seem to be struggling to continue. The randomness of perks that drop from enemies or challenges combined with the randomness of mods you get on your weapons, can make for frustrating runs where nothing goes right. Mainly being the bullet sponges and no variation in the activities add to that a smaller roster of guns to play with and it feels like a downgrade. The story is there, but only in the form of flashbacks that deepen the lore surrounding Vaas Montenegro and his relationship with the priestess Citra.Įscaping Vaas’ mind is fun the first few times, but suffers the same problems Far Cry 6 has, review here. This Far Cry 6 DLC: Vaas is more a game mode than a story you play. – You don’t like playing the same map, weapon and challenges over and over. – You are looking for any linear story to follow. – You have time for a short-ish game session. – You like going up against harder and harder game modes. Far Cry 6 DLC: Vaas TL DR 6/10 For you if I was amazed at first but the honeymoon period ended quickly. And what these Far Cry 6 DLCs will look like. Curious what Ubisoft would deliver on this return trip to Far Cry 3. The first Far Cry 6 DLC: Vaas dropped last week and I dove into it like a maniac.
