    I don’t want to review this game because I have so so so love in this game and this is one of the best game and masterpiece installment in this franchise.

    1. Soundtrack Soundtrack is intense and it’s orchestral and arrangement that gain motivation to play this game. This is one of the best soundtrack in 2015 and I give it 20/10 for soundtrack. 2.

    1. Soundtrack Soundtrack is intense and it’s orchestral and arrangement that gain motivation to play this game. This is one of the best soundtrack in 2015 and I give it 20/10 for soundtrack.

    2. Story This game is far the best and cohesive story in this franchise. JC1 and 2 didn’t improve Rico’s relationship but this game that have his old friend to save Medici. Dialogue is one of the less swearing words than any games. Story is so satisfying for me.

    3. Theme
    The strongest theme in the entire franchise. JC 2 is literally not better in it’s core theme. The theme is about freedom. This game completely show the freedom for Rico’s country. So I give it 20/10.

    4. Gameplay Gameplay is the same as JC2 with more improvement. JC2 is good but sometimes jarring and spinning camera. JC3 has better gameplay and satisfying traverse in open-world environments. I love this game and I give 10/10.

    5. Boss Fight This boss fight is so easy for pro and difficult for starters. But it is so so so rewarding and satisfying when you beat the boss fight. In personal, this boss fight is the most favorite thing in every boss fights.

    6. Some small nick-picking
    This game is so easy to me. This game doesn’t have difficulty setting. In JC2, it have difficulty setting.    … Expand

The explosions look very real and better than the last two games. The game has too much grinding which becomes very tedious once you are stuck finding a microphone hidden somewhere in the city to be able to liberate it or a cop stuck behind a wall which is frustrating since you need to take all of them down to liberate the town. Some military camps have special requirements to liberate them which makes it fun otherwise liberating cities is awfully boring.… Expand

    I really like this game, it is one of my most favourite games. The Game has really good graphics, but the game is really performance hungry, even a 1080ti has to sweat. Really like the Wingsuit feature...sometimes i just turn of the hud and fly...Sometimes the Ai is...really...weird. The game is all about experimenting and explosions.

    The gameplay is very fun, and when you finish the DLC, it becomes exceptionally easy. The new jetpack/glider has weaponary and speed, making travel and combat a whole new experience. The only snag is the slow turning, but if you plan your areal attacks well, it does not matter much. The weapons are fun to experiment with, and I found myself not as interested in the FOW type weapons, though they are fun as well.

    This game is definitely worth the time invested, and I can see myself revisiting this game later, to do it all over again. The Mario and Dimah dialog will be worth it alone.    … Expand

Read on if you want a genuine review from someone who loved Just Cause 2 to death.

    To start with, JC3's gameplay is indeed a bit repetitive and the story is a bit underwhelming, but the enormous map is nice to explore and no two areas are the same. There are a lot of optional challenges available like driving, piloting, wingsuit gliding, etc. that allows you to experience the fullest extent of the map if you so desire.

    Because of the sheer size of the map, you can easily get 50+ hours of gameplay even without doing any challenges. I highly recommend at least the wingsuit challenges, though. However, the overall game itself doesn't feel as intense as JC2 which is where opinions will divide. JC3 isn't particularly difficult; you're essentially given free reign so long as you don't let yourself die. And even if you do, you just respawn and continue on from there.

    Combat with hostiles on the ground is a bit boring since guns are king, and it's just better in general to ignore the enemies and focus on clearing the outposts. There isn't much of a point anymore to use the hook to make cheesy kills, which is a bit disappointing. Driving is pointless once you can use helicopters. These are only some of the reasons why I'm unable to rate JC3 higher; JC3 lost some of the main charms of JC2 and forces you to focus on a limited spectrum of gameplay.

    In any case, JC3 is still a decent game to play if you enjoyed JC2, so if you can get it on sale, you should. It's not the same beast that JC2 was, but JC2 set a really high bar that's hard to beat, so it wouldn't be fair to expect too much out of JC3. I give JC3 a generous 8/10, simply because I got a ton of bang out of it from sheer game time.

    The Air, Land & Sea Expansion Pass DLC adds many neat additions to the game that makes it more badass to play (jetpack wingsuit anyone?), so you should grab it as well if you can. The jetpack alone makes the DLC worth having. I'd give the DLC a 9/10, as it was relatively fun to play through and added a bunch of content.

    On a final note, I highly suggest installing mods to alleviate some of the inconveniences in the game (long intro, rebel drop frequency, etc.). Also, keep Vertical Sync enabled or else you may experience "DXGI" game crashes.    … Expand

    Fantastic game with a gorgeous, vibrant world. JC3 is a worthy successor to JC2; the addition off the wingsuit was a great idea. Knocking a point for online login and occasional slowdowns/lockups (very infrequent now compared to launch). Overall though, well worth the money.

    There are a lot of things that keep you busy: create the best police car chase in any video game in existence, find all the easter-eggs hidden in the map, trying to find every vehicle in the game and so on, The shooting is neat, the grappling hook is awesome and the gear system is a cool idea.

    3: Blowing up everything to liberate a town can get a little repetitive (especially if you can't find something to destroy -yeah yeah there's a map i know but for the little things to destroy that won't help you-)

    It boasts some great improvements over the previous game of the series, but does not evolve the formula in any significant way. It looks better and lets you glide in a wingsuit, but its scale is not surprising anymore. It lets you unleash wonderful chaos in unscripted skirmishes, but its story missions fail to enrich the experience. All the same it is my kind of game. I love playing with its systems, I appreciate the effort put into JC3 and I return to Medici from time to time for condensed doses of havoc. [01/2016, p.48]

    Just Cause 3 is a monument to excess. It’s Hot Shots. It’s Charlie Chaplin in The Dictator, if Charlie Chaplin had rocket-powered C4 in his boots. It’s that scene in Dr. Strangelove where Slim Pickens rides the nuke into Russia, except...well, no, it’s pretty much exactly that scene on repeat for 25-30 hours.
