There are several missions where Vaas puts down his guns and comes to terms with his past actions via visions of events from his life before and during his war with Jason. The real problem comes whenever Insanity tries to insert Far Cry storytelling into its roguelike framework. The mixture of swappable perks and permanent upgrades provides a good progression, and even those who just want to see the story beats will find Insanity to be a fun ride. The FPS action is as big a highlight here as it was in Far Cry 6's main campaign, although the rewards for ramping up the difficulty after the initial playthrough are few and far between. Vaas wields weaponry appropriate for Far Cry 3 and performs knife takedowns in the style of a Rakyat warrior.

This is likely something the series will lean on in future main installments, as the gunplay is the only aspect of Far Cry that has significantly improved from the early days.
While the run-based design holds Insanity back from feeling like a full dose of Far Cry, it does shift the focus to combat. Related: Everything Far Cry 6 Does Better Than Far Cry 5 Players can see everything there is to see in one playthrough easily, and that will only take a couple of hours for anyone who has invested the time in completing one of the franchise's main campaigns. Of course, because of the DLC's roguelike ambitions, the open world is rather small. Insanity takes place entirely inside Vaas' head, a bloody dreamscape filled with flying sharks and ghostly visions of his former pirate crew. The mixture of surreal dreamscapes and the familiar landmarks of the Rook Islands is powerful, and there's some great level design across the entire map. Even with that questionable decision, the DLC brings some welcome experimentation to the Far Cry formula and provides a more interesting experience than anything happening on the island of Yara. Along the way, Ubisoft takes notes from the slasher franchises of the 1980s and shifts the character from a ruthless killer to a more relatable (but still dangerous) person.
Reintroducing iconic bad guy Vaas from Far Cry 3 as a playable character, Insanity is a journey through the psychopath's mind as he works through his demise at the hands of Jason and his complicated relationship with his sister Citra. Far Cry 6shifts from one tropical paradise to another in the Vaas: Insanity DLC.
