Far Cry 5: 10 Best Franchise Moments So Far

5. Far Cry 4 - Alternate Ending

Whoever thought that actually listening to the villain would end well?

Having an alternate ending play from simply following the orders of Pagan Min at the start of Far Cry 4 is so synonymous to the series that it hurts. After release, this is one of the things that Far Cry 4 became so well known for, the fact that an ending exists within literally five minutes of starting the game.

To activate this alternate ending, all players need to do is follow Pagan Min's orders and sit and wait in the dining room at the start of the game. Doing so will trigger an ending that's arguably as good as the real one, and probably resulted in much less bloodshed.

Most games wouldn't even bother to put something as easily missable as this but the fact that Far Cry 4 chose to is really a testament to the series and it's well known attention to detail. Absolutely genius.
