I'm a few hours into watching someone play FC6 and the actual politics of the island's government are extremely unclear and don't make a lot of sense to me. None of this is really spoilers by the way, I'll just elaborate on stuff that's already in the trailers. The government is clearly coded as Cuba, but it's run as a kind of hereditary monarchy where the dictator Castillo is grooming his son to be the next dictator, since he believes something something family family. It's not really clear what level of socialist politics exist on the island, at least among the normal citizenry. There is a whole lot of forced labor. Here's where it gets really wacky though. Castillo got into power after some revolutions in the 1960s which disposed of some kind of generic liberal democracy, which some characters talk about like it was the best period in the entire island's history. They say pre-revolution was a paradise in the Caribbean, then the mean Castillo family got into power and ruined everything. They tanked the economy, got the country cut off from the rest of the world, and blah blah. I believe at one point a character mentions Castillo himself deliberately got the country sanctioned or something?

It's an extremely confusing inversion of Cuban history where I'm not quite sure where to make heads or tails of it. The protest movement, Libertad, is coded as some kind of leftist/anarchist insurgency against the Castillo government, which is occasionally coded as some kind of fascist. It gets even wackier though, since the main policy being fought against by Libertad is the Castillo government's scientists have discovered a cure for cancer in tobacco plants they've dubbed Viviro. So the government is using forced labor camps to grow as much as possible to use as some kind of bargaining in the world economy, but Libertad wants to seize the tobacco fields and produce Viviro for the sake of everyone.

It's a fucking mind boggling inversion of what Cuba actually is, yet still presented as being basically Cuba. I'm maybe a fourth of the way into the game and my head is spinning at just how galaxy brain this stuff is.

The gun fighting seems kinda fun though, but it's a Far Cry game so it's largely more of the same. You get an alligator companion at one point, also there's an M1 garand that goes ping when it reloads.
