8.0
Ultimately, Far Cry 6: Vaas - Insanity is a showcase for Vaas and a reminder of how layered the character is. Mando's performance elevates the quality of the DLC and kept me coming back for more.

- 6.0At the very least, Vaas: Insanity succeeds more than Far Cry 6 proper at moving the franchise forward. By the same token, sanding off the hard edges of a character conceived in a much different world could sever the last few connections to Far Cry's glorious past. The DLC's roguelike structure feels novel but incomplete, another ultimately unsuccessful attempt at mixing things up after Far Cry: New Dawn's RPG elements and Far Cry 5's DLC adventures into new genres.
- 8.0I tend to prefer when Far Cry isn’t overly serious or forced, and from that perspective, I’m satisfied with Vaas: Insanity. The mystical story doesn’t get in the way of the action, and the action isn’t spread too thin across a gargantuan map. It’s all really reasonable.
- 7.5Far Cry 6 Vaas: Insanity is something you’ll be interested in if you happen to like Vaas’ arc. Moreover, you might like Ubisoft’s creative way of presenting the character’s flaws, quirks, and mindset. Evidently, your first successful run should prove to be exciting. Sadly, past that point, you’ll have almost nothing left to do.
- Far Cry 6 Vaas: Insanity is a wonderful expansion that introduces the roguelike genre to the series in style. Vaas’ backstory is well worth delving into. Through various visions and memory missions, one of the most iconic gaming villains is given a heart, albeit a deranged and bleeding one.
- 8.1Far Cry 6, Vaas: Locura es el contenido adicional que sin duda faltaba añadir en Far Cry 6, un DLC al que poco más se le puede añadir y que, aunque su jugabilidad pueda parecer repetitiva en varias ocasiones, el desafío en general que se nos presenta es perfecto para retarnos a nosotros mismos como jugadores a la vez que navegamos por la mente de Vaas Montenegro y combatimos sus demonios.
