8 Video Game Bosses That Subtly Told You How To Beat Them
3. Pagan Min (Far Cry 4)
Far Cry 4 has you playing as Ajay Ghale, a son who travels to his home country of Kyrat to put his mother's ashes to rest. Sounds straightforward - but this noble mission hits a blockade immediately, when Ajay is taken prisoner by crazy dictator Pagan Min.
From the off, Min establishes himself as a nasty piece of work. He brutally kills one of his own men and has a little taste of Ajay's mother's ashes, and so, when you arrive at his mansion at the start of the game and he tells you to "stay right here", the last thing you'll want to do is hang around. Instead, you'll want to escape and progress with the rest of the game, seizing your window to escape Min's clutches.
But as it turns out, Min's request for you to stay in your seat was actually him cluing you in on how to beat the game in record time. If you do as he asks, he'll return a short while later and thank you for waiting, before taking you to place your mother's ashes. He'll talk a little bit about his history, clamber into a helicopter, and the credits will roll.
So, if you're patient, you can beat Far Cry 4 in roughly 15 minutes, saving the beautiful nation of Kyrat a whole lot of fire, explosions, and death in the process.
