History WMG / FarCry3

Jason's suffering a Durance that turns him into a Farwalker Ogre, and he's caught between two feuding Gentry in the form of Citra and Hoyt. Everyone else involved in the plot besides his friends and family being absolutely nuts just cinches it - Far Cry 3 is pretty much "Changeling: the Lost - the Videogame"!

** according to the lost expeditions DLC, the game is set in the Assassin's Creed universe, and also shares it's pop culture with ours (Jason quotes Star Wars, Kill Bill or Bioshock, for example). Since Jason is your typical 20-yr old immature kid in the beginning, he would have known about MW2 if it existed as a Game, and at least said some random shit to make fun of Huntley.

Abducted, tortured, and slowly turned into a monster while gaining impressive abilities while being slowly broken by the abuse and prone to a very uncertain reality? Ultimately forced to decide between trying to return to the life he left behind or surrender entirely to the monstrosity inflicted on him?

Why else would his first weapon be a machete?

* Indeed, it isn't so much as Jason just plain hallucinating Vaas' death, as it is Vaas DELIBERATELY causing Jason to hallucinate his death. But why would the LaughablyEvil, AxCrazy Pirate Leader decide to FakeTheDead when Jason was looking for a final showdown? Because Vaas finally took his own advice: Insanity IS doing the same thing over and over again, and expecting different results. In a case of FridgeBrilliance, this applied to both Jason and Vaas equally, as they kept trying to kill each other SpyVsSpy style, kept failing to put the other in the ground, and kept expecting that they'd get a different result if they kept trying to kill each other. Vaas finally realized the only way to break the cycle was if one of them died, [[HypocriticalHumor but since he isn't crazy enough to willingly die]], he plugged Jason with some hard drugs, [[ScrewThisImOuttaHere and got the hell off the Rook Islands]]. The reason [[CainAndAbel Citra]] and [[BiggerBad Volker]] say he's dead is because they only have Jason's drugged-up story to go on, and since Vaas [[NeverFoundTheBody vanished without a trace]], they assumed [[DeathSeeker he finally got killed by the one man as crazy as he was]].

* This is how I read the scene actually happening, drug trip aside. Vaas very clearly stabs you, starting the encounter. After that Vaas leaves, rightfully thinking he's killed you, [i]again[/i]. But you're still alive, and get up, stab wound still there and bleeding quite heavily. The Vaas clones you have to blow through to get to Vaas (or sprint past, depending on how you ended that encounter) are actually just those suicide charger machete wielding enemies. So in the real world Jason is stumbling after Vaas deeper into Vaas's hideout, bloody chinese knife in one hand and salvaged SMG in the other blasting through the surviving pirates who are trying to kill him. You eventually reach Vaas, and the encounter happens where you kill him. When you both fall to the ground and he looks at you it's just blood loss kicking in. Some of the Rakyat tasked with being back-up (who of course hang back until everythings said and done because pride and honor and other tribal macho nonsense) find you and manage to stitch you back together enough to haul back to Citra, who has plenty of herbal medicines to heal you in time to wake up.

** Makes sense actually, considering that the two series aren't made - or even [i]published[/i] - by the same company.

[[WMG: Jason is the reincarnation of [[FridayThe13th Jason Voorhees]] ]]

Citra had spies in Badtown and Vaas' pirates who reported back to her. Citra then whispered all the info in Jason's ear while he was wigging out.

For a bit of extra evidence apart from the "no body" theory, in the tape recording of him and Hoyt talking, notice how he's very quick to say that he doesn't give a fuck about Snow White (Jason). Hiding something?

escape from Hoyt. However, here comes along Jason. Vaas at first thinks Jason is just another idiot he can kill. Once he proves difficult to kill, Vaas makes a plan. If Jason is motivated by avenging his brother, then once he kills Vaas he will go after Hoyt as Hoyt would be the only big target left. Vaas decides that the best way would be to make Jason think he's killed him, then watch as Jason goes after Hoyt. He arranges it so that all his assassination attempts fail: making the rope binding Jason too loose, shooting him in the pocket where he specifically placed the lighter, etc. This is so that Hoyt doesn't catch on that Vaas is intentionally keeping Jason alive: being incompetent is better then being a traitor. When Jason approaches Vaas' base, Vaas makes him start tripping on whatever awful hallucinogen he can pipe through the walls. While Jason's tripping, Vaas faked his own death using bloodstains and scraps of his clothing, then indicated his body was lost somehow. Jason realized this even while tripping, reflected by the fact that Vaas's eyes look up at him. Vaas then heads out of the slaughtered compound, arranges under a fake name to get off the islands through boat/airplane (For extra WMG, he snuck onboard the plane transporting Agent Willis or even hid on Jason's ship), then left the islands to [[AndTheAdventureContinues do more crazy shit.]]

Assuming that this game does take place in the same universe as the AssassinsCreed games do, then by the end of the game, assuming you pick the ending where you save Liza and the others, then Jason has spent the past several days, (weeks even?) in the jungle killing people, growing extremely desensitized to it and even getting a rush off of it. If it is at all possible for Jason to recovery psychologically, then that will be a long and arduous road. But at the same time, there's also the fact that he has become skilled with various forms of weaponry, particularly blades. He's snuck up behind people, come down from above onto them, and overall has become a lethal jungle warrior. If he can't get rid of all that inner rage and bloodlust, then maybe he could at least channel it into something productive under the guidance of the Assassins.

* Though Heck does turn out to be a rogue CIA agent if you perform the three operations in a certain order.

Much like [[VideoGame/AlphaProtocol Steven Heck]], Willis is delusionally carrying out operations that "don't exist" because they ''really don't.'' He's not "deep cover", he's living out his fantasy....just like Jason.

Well, They kinda look the same, so why not ?
