While the franchise boasts numerous memorable entries, Far Cry 4 manages to stand on its own in many ways. From its unique setting to its complex storyline, Far Cry 4 possesses some of the franchise's best gameplay qualities while managing to differentiate itself from other installments. Though, many fans would agree the game's villain is what allows Far Cry 4 to stand out most.
Pagan Min is the villain of Far Cry 4, and is one of the most memorable aspects of the game. He may not appear often in the game, but whenever he does show up, it is always an unnerving experience. Despite the game being out for nearly seven years, it still has its fans, as proven by one particular cosplayer.
Twitter user KaraInferi has been working on a female Pagan Min cosplay for over six years, and the end result looks absolutely fantastic. From the dark pink suit to the dark roots on the wig, this cosplay looks great, and their take on the character could easily go toe-to-toe with the gender-swapped Kratos cosplay that was shown off by another fan in early March.
Some would say this character doesn't quite reach the same heights as Vaas from Far Cry 3, but if this cosplay is any evidence, Pagan Min's character and Far Cry 4 certainly have their fans. Given this cosplay took over six years to complete certainly shows KaraInferi's dedication to the character. Considering how close the cosplay is to the actual character design, it seems the effort was well worth it.
Despite the appreciation shown toward Far Cry 4, it begs to question as to what the future holds for the series. There have been next-to no signs of Far Cry 6 being shown off anytime soon, and many fans have started to become restless. The impacts of COVID-19 have certainly disrupted the development cycles of numerous games, and the upcoming Far Cry 6 seems to be no exception to this.
However, in terms of what has been shown of Far Cry 6 so far, there's a lot for fans to look forward to. The addition of Giancarlo Esposito as the lead villain is something many fans have pointed to as one of the most exciting qualities about the game. Although, as KaraInferi's cosplay suggests, this new villain has some tough competition to go up against.
Far Cry 4 is available now on PC, PS3, PS4, Xbox 360, and Xbox One.
