Far Cry 6
Over and over again, but Deathloop was last month
The fictitious Caribbean island of Yara... definitely not Cuba

A MAN ONCE SPOKE at length about the definition of insanity. He defined it as doing the same thing over and over, expecting things to change. This time it’s going to be different. This time it’s going to be different. Welcome to Far Cry 6.
You went on to stab Vaas to death in Far Cry 3, but his monologue has continued to resonate. Every Far Cry since Vaas’s has given you a wide-open play area, a madman, a bunch of buddies to help you out, and enough weaponry to outgun a Just Cause game. Every time we expect it to be different.
This time, it’s definitely not Cuba. The fictional (and rather large) Caribbean island nation of Yara has a dictator problem, as Anton Castillo (portrayed by Giancarlo Esposito, whom you may recognize) is rounding people up to ‘rebuild paradise’ (work as slaves in the tobacco fields, where Castillo claims to have developed a smokable cure for cancer) while grooming his own runaway son to succeed him just as he succeeded his own father following the revolution.
