In what's become Far Cry tradition, the fourth entry in the series begins with the player quickly being recruited into the care ("care" being used liberally here) of a smartly dressed psychopathic dictator. During the most uncomfortable dinner this side of The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Min excuses himself to torture some poor chap in the basement, inviting you to carry on eating your meal and await his return. At this point you're supposed to decide that the blood-curdling screams of a tortured man don't make for great dining ambiance and get up and leave, as what comes next is a murderous 10 hours dedicated to wiping out Kyrat's entire eagle population. Because seriously, screw those damn birds. But wait. If the mortal screams of your fellow man have no impact on your appetite and you decide to stay and wait patiently for Min to come back, you can complete the game many hours early. Instead of fronting the civil war the game ends with the player character joining him on his helicopter, en route to shoot some goddamn guns while The Clash roars in the background. Easiest game ever. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JnCed-hb53E
