Setting and Characters
Kyrat is the fictional setting of the game. It’s located in the Himalayas. The developers combined elements of real-world areas such as India Nepal, and Tibet to create Kyrat. However, they exaggerated these elements. The map is the same size as Far Cry 3. but it is much more diverse and has more varied terrains.
They also wanted the location to be plausible and interesting. They created an identity for Kyrat, adding signboards and creating a fictional religion and mythology for Kyrat. The world of the game was designed to include new features, such as helicopters and grappling hooks. The team improved the side-quests to help make the world more real. The studio sent a team of designers to Nepal in order to record and experience the local culture.
The developer said that the trip changed the design of the game. It shifted the focus from the civil war in the game, which was inspired by the actual Nepalese Civil War[41] towards developing unique and interesting character. The game’s main antagonist Pagan Min is a character that has received a lot of praise. He is essentially regarded as stealing the throne of Kyrat from its royal family, and naming himself after the historical Burmese King in the series lore.
The team wanted players to be “amazed and intrigued” with him at every turn. The team initially hoped for a villain with a “punk rock mentality” but abandoned the idea as they thought it was not original. The pink outfit Min wears in the game is inspired by Beat Takeshi from Brothers and Kakihara from Ichi, the Killer. Baker said that Ubisoft provided him with a script, but he decided not to follow it and threatened to cut off an assistant’s face using Min’s tone. Baker was hired for the role after the interviewer liked his performance.
Ghale was created to be thin, and the backstory of the character was revealed to players as they progressed in the story. Mark Thompson, the narrative director for the game The game’s narrative director, Mark Thompson, said that Ghale learns the history and culture of Kyrat along with players. The team, in retrospect, thought the storyline of Far Cry 4 was “great”, despite the fact that they believed it to be separate from the world.
To increase the players’ sense of agency and to help the story feel more integrated with the world, the team added a branching plot that allowed players to choose different outcomes and change the ending. They hoped to add depth and meaning to their campaign by adding these choices. Thompson said that the team twisted the Far Cry 2 story for Far Cry 1 and made outsiders villains instead. They considered it “risky”, but wanted to try something new.
The Shangri La section has a different color scheme than Kyrat. The color scheme is mainly gold, red orange, white, and blue. The Shangri-La Missions are not directly related to Kyrat but they play a significant role in the narrative of the game. The team placed a great deal of importance on color when creating these segments. The team hoped the artistic vision of Far Cry 4 wouldn’t be similar to typical shooter games.
The game was initially designed as a small, open world. However, due to time constraints and creative differences among developers, it was converted to a linear experience. Later, the team decided to simplify and reimagine it as an “ancient natural world”.
Five different colors make up the design. Gold is the main color in Shangri-La. The developers felt that gold added warmth to the dreamland. Red was heavily used to create a strangeness and to tie the narrative to the story. White was used for purity in the world, and orange was used to represent interaction. Blue, the last color of Shangri-La, represents honor and danger.
