Plot

The mission begins later on all three heralds are defeated. The Junior Deputy must simply approach the (now empty) chemical compound in Joseph Seed'south region and come up to the church from the prologue.

Joseph will and so run into the Deputy. He tells them that they've made martyrs of his family, and that he'southward prepared to brand martyrs out of theirs. Joseph turns the Deputy effectually and reveals that he has made many of their allies get hypnotized past the Bliss, with Whitehorse, Pratt, and Hudson cuffed and existence held hostage by them. Joseph begins to blame the Deputy for several wrongdoings, such equally having their allies kidnapped and tortured, countless people getting killed, and setting the world on fire, simply asks them if it was worth it. Joseph so tells them "non every unmarried problem can be solved by a bullet", and offers them the same choice he offered in the prologue. The Deputy can either fight Joseph (equally well as Elation-hypnotized allies from the entirety of the game, including their active human being companion(southward)), or take their friends and leave Hope County for proficient.

(Catechism catastrophe)

Choosing to Resist will anger Joseph, leading to him ranting almost the Deputy'south primary sin beingness not Wrath, just Pride: refusing to stand downwardly even if it means dooming everyone. He will then tip over two barrels of Elation while quoting the Revelation, starting time a boss battle in a nightmare vision of the compound.

Joseph occasionally warps in, firing his attack burglarize, and vanishes for a brusk time if plenty damage is inflicted upon him. He cannot be defeated for expert, however, until none of the Deputy's hypnotized allies remain on his side.

In that location are a total of 12 characters fighting on Joseph'due south side. Depleting their health will ship them into an unconscious state, from which they tin can be revived. If revived by the Deputy, they volition revert to their normal selves and once again go friendly; if revived by Joseph, they volition fight on his side. As each ally tin get unconscious from sustaining impairment, they tin can become through multiple cycles of revival past either the Deputy or by Joseph, henceforth information technology may not enough to just revive them once.

Stage one requires to revive three allies (Earl Whitehorse, Staci Pratt, and Joey Hudson), before more than join the fight. Stage two requires dealing with 7 (Jerome Jeffries, Nick Rye, Mary May Fargrave, Tammy Barnes, and the previous 3) , and stage 3 with 12 (Hurk Drubman, Jr., Wheaty, Grace Armstrong, Jess Blackness, Tracey Lader, and the previous group, if they are defeated and revived by Joseph). Just liberating all 12 will make Joseph defeatable. Obviously, the more allies the Deputy has, the easier it becomes to subdue others.

The boxing ends with Joseph existence finally defeated, captured and cuffed. However, a nuclear explosion volition go off across the lake soon after, forcing the party to immediately retreat to Dutch'southward Bunker while in a car. Although the player is in control, this is pretty much a scripted outcome: drive there within a express time.

Upon arriving at the bunker, the catastrophe is shown. All except Joseph and the Deputy dice in a motorcar crash when a flaming tree falls onto the automobile, and Joseph is terminal seen dragging the Deputy into the bunker. Upon waking up, the Deputy is bound to a bed, alone with Joseph, and Dutch is expressionless. Joseph will narrate that his prophecy has come true: the world ends in nuclear war, and although he should kill his arch-enemy for devastating his flock, Joseph will instead make them his new child. Together, they volition wait until the surface is habitable again to restart the civilisation in the image of the Project at Eden's Gate.

As the credits roll, We'll Run into Again by Vera Lynn plays.

(Alternating ending)

If Walk Away choice is chosen, Joseph volition immediately release the Deputy's original group. I might think that "friends" includes all allies, merely in reality, simply Staci Pratt, Joey Hudson and Earl Whitehorse are allowed to go. No combat occurs, as they leave the chemical compound.

Hudson is outraged that they would exit everyone behind similar that, just Sheriff Whitehorse tells her they're all going to Missoula to get federal backup.

Nonetheless, equally they drive away, the trigger song used by Jacob Seed Only You by The Platters plays on the radio, and the Deputy'south vision goes hazy. Apparently visibly distraught, Whitehorse asks the deputy if they're alright, before the scene cuts to black and the credits gyre, as Only Y'all continues playing over them.

One time the credits end, the game reloads the last automobile-save.

Trivia

• There is an selection to kill Joseph while in the motorcar past using a sidearm to kill him; however, doing so results in another explosion instantly killing the Deputy.^[1]
• Afterwards choosing the "Resist" catastrophe, the song that plays over the cease credits is Vera Lynn's 1939 song, We'll See Again; The use of it in this context is a reference to the ending of the 1964 Stanley Kubrick picture, Dr. Strangelove, where the globe ends in a nuclear holocaust, with the song playing over footage of nuclear explosions.

The following section needs to be cleaned up to accommodate to a higher standard, as it is possibly too long, as well detailed, lacking objectivity, unclear, or lacks citations.

Give-and-take of ending

• The ending involving the nuclear detonation ("Resist") sparked a word among players nearly the nature of the credible nuclear-weapons exchange in that catastrophe—that is, a discussion about different possible readings of the story of Far Cry 5 as a singular work distinct from sequels or other stories inspired by it. (Far Cry New Dawn, the straight sequel to Far Cry 5, was established as post-obit up on the "Resist" ending and presents Hope County in the aftermath of a nuclear-weapons disaster that seems to have destabilized society to a substantial degree.)
  • The Collapse is a existent event unrelated to the actions taken in Hope County, and Joseph was right all along. Radio broadcasts within the game's story back up this reading, as they describe heightened international tension, adjoining on open hostility, over an undefined global crisis or crises.
  • The Plummet is a hallucination from overexposure of all present parties to Bliss. Speculative evidence includes unrealistic nuclear explosion physics (see beneath), absenteeism of missile trails, Joseph's knowledge of the exact moment when it happens, the fact that he tips two Bliss barrels over when the fighting starts, and that it does not occur in "Walk Abroad". Too notable is that Hurk knows Jack Carver, the protagonist of Far Cry, the first game in the series.
  • Afterwards the Resist mission Deputy respawns on Dutch's islands tower, similar they do when unlocking the full explore after liberating Dutch's isle. However map intel says that Joseph Seed has been defeated and Hope Canton has been liberated, Dutch can be found in his bunker as well.
  • The nuclear detonation is real but orchestrated past the cult themselves and maybe limited to Hope Canton lonely. The cult is presented every bit having connections to both American and Russian government, and the detonations occur roughly where the cult bunkers used to be.

• If you lot chose the "Resist" catastrophe: when you get out the compound and turn right to head s, the 2d nuclear flare-up's blinding light is almost immediately followed past the sound of the explosion. This is, even so, impossible - if the same thing happened in reality, the Junior Deputy and everybody else in the car would be permanently blinded and suffer serious burns every bit the explosion would be closer than 0.five miles (the speed of sound in air is about one,125 ft/s), not to mention the Deputy, Joseph and others being able to bulldoze and walk after the mural starts to burn around them without suffering the same fate. This however all assumes Far Cry 5 follows realistic physics, something that is questionable given franchise history equally well as the fact such a nuclear burstdid happen in Far Cry: New Dawn's continuity and the Deputy had survived.
• During the scene where the Junior Deputy is offered the selection of resisting or walking away, you can take hold of a glimpse of the fence at the left corner of the pocket-sized church building backside Joseph Seed. However, when the fight is over and Joseph Seed is crawling towards the lake, the fence with the gate is gone, and it is not destroyed as no wreckage is seen (earlier and after Where It All Began y'all tin can visit Joseph's Compound and destroy the fence, but the debris will be visible on the footing).  While this may be due to a deliberate design decision to offer an unobstructed view of the nuclear boom going off beyond the ridge of the mountain, it likewise supports the theory that everything is happening in a Bliss-induced vision, just like the fight against Faith.
• If the Walk Abroad ending is chosen, it is never explained how the task force intended to get to Missoula, as Dutch stated that the roads had been closed at the beginning of Far Weep 5. One theory is that the task force intended to get to Missoula by flying from a helipad/airfield equally they had done in The Warrant. Some other theory is that Joseph Seed foresaw their fate, as he did with The Collapse in the Resist ending.
