2. Pagan Min (Far Cry 4)

Far Cry 4 is another first-person, open-world shooter like its predecessor, even if admittedly it does borrow a bit too much from the superlative Far Cry 3. Here you play as Ajay Ghale, an American who travels to the Himalayan country of Kyrat (which is not a real country actually) where he joins the Golden Path rebels, who are hell-bent on taking down dictator Pagan Min.

Pagan Min is a colorful villain, and not just because of his pink suits. He’s got the charisma and ego to match, even though he’s also prone to violence… The country of Kyrat sure is a beautiful setting as seen in the game’s intro below, but seeing Pagan slicing and dicing a soldier in the video below is not something we’ll soon forget.
