    It's good to meet VAAS again. You can rush through this DLC rogue-lite or you can complete it and savour the moment. The gun-play is tight and the enemy AI flanks well and can present a challenge. I needed to upgrade my pistol skillz quite a bit, but that was a nice challenge. Weapons are quite limited and this moved me away from my usual loadout, so it was fresh and new.

    It's a very well crafted map, visually impressive, lots of Z-axis.
    I had a few quibbles with VAAS's characterisation. He is a bit repetitive, ugly, twisted, unimaginative. I liked the original VAAS more. But I didn't come for the story. I came for challenging game-play. And anyway, it all looked very pretty.    … Expand

    Albeit very short I had more fun in the Vaas DLC than in the base game. It gives a nice backstory to Far Cry’s most beloved villain, and keeps you motivated if you are aiming for higher scores. One problem is its difficulty, the standard one was way too easy, I only died once and that is the opposite of a roguelike experience.

    This is absolute madness! This dlc somehow makes vaas' story much deeper, and that's truly incredible

    I am a fan of Far cry3 and I am grateful to Ubisoft for making a Game DLC about Vaas about his history，a history of madness and sadness. The design of the game and the level design are also very good. Good job for those game creators.

    I seriously loved this DLC. Full disclosure, FC3 is my favorite game, but the sound, setting, and acting is superb and the gameplay is GREAT! Honestly, you can play though the game, on the lowest level, in a couple of hours, the replay value is super high. If you're a fan of Vaas, you will love it!

    Mám rád Far Cry 6 jako hru a toto dlc se mi taky zdá povedené, připadal jsem si zase jako ve Far Cry 3 a i jednoduché mechaniky byly super, ubisoft udělal dobrou práci doporučuji. Dlc je sice kratší, ale za to plné obsahu a nebudete se nudit.

    I wasn't digging deep when I played Far Cry 3, Wasn't so much invested in Far Cry 6.
    But after trying this DLC. I've got to say it hit all the right spots for me:

    A FPS, Rogue like, Arena shooter, About the best part of the franchise, about the thought out antagonist, great game/gunplay, incest plot about power struggle, grindable and repeatable.

    I wish the final arena had more enemies :)

    Я покупал Gold edition со скидкой и dlc получил считай за копейки. В принципе дополнение неплохое, правда я ожидал узнать большего о Ваасе.

    In general, Vaas Insanity is not very playable. After experiencing the limited content, what is waiting for the players is the monotonous content that will no longer attract them. Considering that the next two DLCs will also use the "Roguelite" mode, it is a bit worrying. Of course, only from the experience of the first round of play, the quality of this DLC is actually good. The expressiveness of the scene and the design of some levels are very imaginative. For players who want to know more about the story behind Far Cry 3 or are interested in the villain "Vaas", this DLC is still worth playing.

    This is a great starting point to the trio of DLCs Far Cry 6 is about to get. While Far Cry 6 focused on improving on an old format, Far Cry 3 managed to give us something refreshing.

    At 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. If Ubisoft can do a better job of recapturing the spirit of its other two antagonists in the rest of Far Cry 6's season pass (or in the recently rumored Vaas film project) franchise fans may finally have something to celebrate in 2021.
