The other similarity between Kupka and Vaas is how quickly they are killed off in order to make way for new antagonists who are far less exciting to fight than these two icons of villainy.

On the other hand, it is Kupka's relentless hounding of Cid and Clive, even succeeding at destroying the initial Hideaway from the first act, that helps cement him as such an intimidating villain throughout Final Fantasy 16. Vaas' antics and his interest in the definition of insanity have made him a favorite among Far Cry fans as one of the best villains in the series. There's a difference in method, but both become seemingly obsessed with finding the player character and destroying everything they hold dear, which Kupka comes much closer to succeeding at. Kupka might not be the classic psychopath that Vaas is, but he still shows little remorse for brutally killing scores of men before eventually spending the rest of his time in Final Fantasy 16 chasing the two Cids. However, while both of these characters appear as a threat early on, it is their individual actions that make them a lasting presence for the player. In the case of Vaas, he appears early in the wild trip that gets the player stuck on the Rook Islands, having captured the protagonist and holding him hostage as he threatens to torture and kill him and his friends. Kupka appears right in the opening sections that were first shown in Final Fantasy 16's demo, rising up as Titan to decimate a battlefield and nearly kill Clive and his initial companions more than once.

The violent criminal eventually subjects the Superbad star to a series of over-the-top torture sequences. The latter saw Vaas' pirate crew capture Christopher Mintz-Plasse's camera team while filming a reality show on Rook Islands. Far Cry 3's marketing campaign included traditional commercials and the in-universe miniseries The Far Cry Experience. And we'll sit down, and give it to the people.”Īlthough the idea has yet to gain traction, Mando already has extensive experience playing a live-action Vaas. I can't say anything yet, but hopefully people will keep asking for it. Kind of like an origin story would be fascinating." The Better Call Saul star also confirmed that he's working on a story that "would take place with the Vaas we know now, but that takes place on a huge, huge international scale.
When asked what kind of Vaas story he'd want to tell, Mando revealed that he's "interested in pulling back a little bit, going back and trying to see how he got there.
