I bought FC3 without knowing what the game was because of this monologue:

Vaas: "Did I ever tell you what the definition of insanity is?

Insanity is doing the exact same fucking thing, over and over again expecting shit to change. That. Is. Crazy.

The first time somebody told me that, I dunno, I thought they were bullshitting me, so, boom, I shot him. The thing is, he was right

And then I started seeing, everywhere I looked, everywhere I looked all these fucking pricks. Everywhere I looked, doing the exact same fucking thing... over and over and over and over again thinking: 'This time is gonna be different.' No, no, no please... 'This time is gonna be different.'

I'm sorry, I don't like... The way... you are looking at me,. Okay!? Do you have a fucking problem in your head, do you think I am bullshitting you, do you think I am lying? Fuck you! Okay? Fuck you!

It's okay, man. I'm gonna chill, hermano. I'm gonna chill -

The thing is... Alright, the thing is I killed you once already. And it's not like I am fucking crazy. It's okay... It's like water under the bridge

Did I ever tell you the definition... of insanity?

Vaas was an awakening that made everyone realize what Far Cry villains needed to be. They took the idea and ran with it for the next three games.

I don't think I ever finished FC3, I agree he wasn't a big part of the game

Still one of the best written monologues
