In one outburst that puts him firmly in the "eccentric villain" category, he decides to ban candles because they're just so ubiquitous. Min's mock monarchy is characterized by torture and insular propaganda. Pagan Min, an eloquent and showy psychopath, sits on the country's throne as an outsider who wiggled in at the last minute, and as someone who wants to keep thrones a thing for as long as it's comfortable. And like Ghale, you get in so deep after a while that it doesn't really matter what brought you there in the first place.Your arrival in Kyrat, a tumultuous kingdom forever watched by the Himalayan mountains, is colored by a brutal encounter with a Chinese national dressed in fine purple and topped with bleached hair. Like the vessel enshrining his mother's ashes, Ajay Ghale can't accomplish anything without a player to move him, lugging him up and down South Asian mountains in pursuit of peril and the next exotic vista.

This doesn't make him an absent-minded son so much as the protagonist in an excellent open-world game. Only he gets distracted, goes mountain climbing for a bit, helps dismantle a despotic regime, fights a tiger, runs in circles looking for an ancient scroll, lands a gyrocopter on someone's house and develops a caustic vendetta against nature's sweet-sounding fur demon, the honey badger. Far Cry 4 is about a man returning home to scatter his mother's final earthly form.
