    One of the most buggy and glitch ridden games I’ve even seen hit the market. This doesn’t even deserve to be a triple A title anymore.

    Peut-être le pire jeu auquel j'ai joué et en tout cas il en fait partie. je n'ai pas du tout apprécié, je me suis amusé au tout début quelques minutes mais après j'étais totalement désintéressé. Le jeu est vide est sans intérêt.

    This is likely one of the worst open world games ever made. It had one fun thing- Tornadoes, that's it. Nothing else to care about. Graphics were awful, world was empty and boring, mission design was phenomenally bad, story was meaningless. Not to even mention the fact, that design for the open world felt like it was made with random map generator. Zero passion.

This was my first experience with the Just Cause franchise. I read a lot of reviews talking about the bugs and glitches, but I had very few problems. I truly enjoyed the game for its action, grapple hook/hover board, emphasis on solo/single player, relatively easy trophy list and variety of the 3 DLCs and ease of finding fun things to do. Avalanche and Square Enid did a great job. My one complaint is the long grind of the three trophies associated with stunt, vehicle and speed challenges. Dear Developers, with all due love and respect, If you exceed 100 challenges in three separate categories… for bronze trophies with a current completion of 0.4%, you might have gone overboard lol.

Other than that the main thing for this series is the explosions and oh my god they look so good basically everything you shoot explodes and it’s awesome, there are even helicopters that carry huge gas things I don’t know what there called then you can let it go jump out of the chopper and see both of the huge explosions happen at once and it’s awesome looking. Overall this is a great sequel to a game franchise that couldn’t have been more crazy and if this movie happens Michael Bay needs to direct it. Expand

The graphics aren't impressive either and they still use pre-rendered cutscene like come on we are in real time now. Again like in 3, loading times between in game and cutscene how is this even possible when we have games with real time now. The story is just whatever and just doesn't make any sense. The biggest take away is that the explosions aren't rewarding unlike in 3 where you get chaos points to have a sense of progression. Here exploring everything just doesn't grant anything and just feels useless which is a shame cause they look great and play great too. Expand

    Tem algumas propostas de jogo interessantes, o mapa é um cenário de guerra constante e dominar os territórios traz uma dinâmica diferenciada. A inteligência artificial dos NPCs é bem ruim e a mecânica de combate deixa muito a desejar. É um jogo em que da pra passar um tempo se divertindo mas não é um grande jogo.

For a 'sandbox' game there's not very much to do (other than completing hundreds of vehicle/wingsuit stunts).
    In my opinion, there are only two positive or unique things about JC3. The wingsuit gameplay and the world design. I consider JC3's map one of the most beautiful of all games. JC4's map is far worse. Bigger but way duller.
    JC4 has at least stable fps and don't run on 10 fps when things are exploding. But at what cost? Textures are constantly loading in, sometimes you find yourself falling through a texture that's supposed to be solid but hasn't loaded yet. Also lighting engine is kind of weird so JC3 is graphically better.
    In conclusion, Just Cause 4 doesn't improve on its predecessor in any major way and feels rushed.

    I found it forcing me to kill so many women in the game to be somewhat disturbing. Seemed like a lot of the enemy troops were women for some reason. Just being honest here, as a guy killing other guys feels more natural, something off about killing women. Anyways, I liked Just Cause 2 a lot, and Just Cause 3 was pretty decent, though it could've been more realistic. This one just confused me.

Again not as good as Just Cause 3, but a great game nevertheless, if you're going into this game for a smart story, deep characters, and a message, skip it, that isn't what Just Cause is, but if you know what Just Cause is as dumb fun action, play it you won't regret it. I don't know why everyone hates on this game, it does something new, and if it doesn't always stick, it's still something new, and isn't such a slap in the face to give it anything below a 6 out of them, great combat, exploration, and most of all big old explosions, that never cease to amaze.

    I do miss seeing fish and coral in the water though :( i also love that Rico now has the ability to climb things with his hands!!! He couldn’t do that in previous games & you had to grapple & jump to climb stuff. I also really like that aiming weapons is now with L2 instead of R3, it just feels better to me. I do miss liberating bases & towns but have adjusted to the new system. I also miss c4!!! That was my main way of eliminating helicopters, grapple up, plant c4 & detonate as i was flying away!!! But I’ve adjusted to secondary fire on weapon as well, not like i have a choice! Anyway, i want to thank Avalanche, i love this game!!! I also really enjoyed Mad Max which i would LOVE to see a sequel for as well!!!! :)

Mindly bogglingly big tropical island paradises full of objects to blow up or collect. True, there has never been much depth to the activities but at least there were activities. Just Cause 4 seems to have forgotten the purpose for having an open-world. Aside from a few very rare parachute/flight suit challenges there is literally nothing to do in the world. There are no collectibles, there are no bases to raid, there are no settlements to liberate. There is only the main narrative. I just don't get it. Why go to the length of making a massive and rather pretty world without putting anything in it? People, cars roads, villages, cities are all just set dressing. You cannot interact with them at all. In previous titles there was always something to destroy or collect and it was fun to do so in a childish smash the building-block tower sort of way. Without it I just can't see any reason to continue playing. Sure, there's the story but after playing through the last 3 games the only things that sets them apart are the graphics. Without that I couldn't tell you which is which.
    Other small niggles that hampered my playthrough were:
    - The mapscreen does not zoom out far enough.
    - Weapon aiming is a chore delegated to auto aim for most of the combat.
    - You never have enough ammo to go wild.
    - Vehicles sound surreal.
    - High speed driving feels like controlling Sonic 2006 rather than driving.
    - The weather conditions provide little more than a parachute boost.
    - Overthrowing regions is delegated to the mapscreen UI rather than gameplay.
    - There are surprisingly few guns.
    - Enemies have impecable aim from miles away.
    - Enemies are difficult to identify as such.
    - Grappling up a building still has that awkward hop where you go from the side of the wall to the top of it.
    - The soundtrack is rarely appropriate, playing peaceful music during gunfights and action music when strolling through a field.
    - The world is so beautiful that it hurts to know there's nothing to do in it.

    Quality game, great explosion/ragdoll physics, shooting, vehicles the grappling hook is great. If you love action games this must buy what's not to like about driving loads of vehicles, shooting and blowing stuff up, flying around etc. Great fun.

    Low effort dumpster fire. Usually a sequel looks better than the game that preceded it. This might be the first time in history that the sequel looked worse.

This might be the first time in history that the sequel looked worse. Actually, this game is so hilariously bad, that I should not waste my time coming up with words to describe its failing as a consumer entertainment product. But there is something fun about blowing things up, so it is important to understand how Square Enix got this game so wrong.

    I will give Just Cause 4 credit for not crashing. The previous game, Just Cause 3, crashed constantly. Also, I am playing Just Cause 4 on PS5 and the load times are a non-issue. This game might be a nightmare on PS4 because Rico will often instantly die in mysterious explosions. These are the only accolades I can give Just Cause 4.

    The low quality of the graphics in this game is both stunning and confusing. Put simply, the game looks like dog **** The lighting is bizarrely too bright and too dark, lights flicker constantly, models are pixelated, hair texture is non-existent, shadows appear in odd places, and most of the environment is the same low quality rocks, trees, buildings, and cars on repeat. Just Cause 3 looked great. Why would a developer create worse looking models for Just Cause 4? Did they lose the license to the engine they used for Just Cause 3? Did Square Enix really charge $60 for this turd?

    I might excuse the bad graphics if it meant the rest of the game ran smooth as butter. Overwatch and Fortnite are great examples of games that trade graphics for performance. I wish Just Cause 4 had done the same. Flying around in the game, you will see pop-in. You will also see tanks fly into the air for no reason and helicopters materialize out of nowhere. In an action filled firefight, the screen will go white as Rico is obliterated by some unseen force. The a.i. will walk NPCs into corners, have enemies stand still while you lay into them with a machine gun, and send escort mission NPCs through burning wreckage. The vehicle models you blow up are sometimes replaced with wrecked versions of the vehicle and sometimes with skins that show a blackened texture. There was no attempt to simulate real destruction.

    The most heartbreaking failure of this game is the failure to fulfill the premise of the Just Cause game series: destroying everything. For starters, you do not need to destroy enemy assets anymore. What you do is create "chaos" to earn troops who will take regions. First you have to conduct a mission at a base. There are only 3 kinds of missions so get ready to rinse and repeat. Once the mission is complete, you select the region on the map and send in some troop. There is no fighting for Rico. The map changes color and the region is taken over. The thing about earning "chaos" is that you can easily earn it from fighting the enemy, and by midway through the game I had enough troopers on standby that destroying fuel tanks and radio towers was no longer necessary.

    Destroying things for fun is also not as fun as Just Cause 3 or Just Cause 2. You have many of the same tools. The problem is the setup. Like Just Cause 3, every base and city is very far away from each other. Perhaps to compensate, the game has enemies teleport to the player rather than travel from the far edges of visible space. There is no point in using a crashed bus to set up a roadblock or dropping a fuel tank from a cargo helicopter. Even in bases, the goal is never to destroy things but to flip switches or activate a computer console that is oddly and conveniently placed on the roof of a building. Dear Square Enix, no one wants to play a game about flipping switches.

    The story and voice acting are barely worth mentioning. No one plays these games for the story. The story also peaked with Just Cause 2 when Rico fought a dictator while riding nuclear missiles. The least Square Enix can do for players is have voice acting that isn't flat and repetitive and cutscenes that look better than a game from 2001. I actually prefer for the story to be in-game. Maybe put some of that cutscene budget into models and textures!

    If I didn't mentioned the weather effects in the game then it is because they look terrible and offer nothing that Just Cause 4 needed to be a decent game. If Just Cause is going to innovate, then start with having every enemy building destructible. Muhahaha.

    All-in-all, this game is a low effort cash grab that killed the Just Cause franchise. I cannot see how I would pay $60 for another Just Cause game. In fact. Because of the failings of Just Cause 3, I never bought Just Cause 4. The game was a PlayStation Plus "free" game for me. If you pay more than "free" for this game, you overpaid.

    first of i am mid story in this game but i ve spent at least a good 20hours on this game .
    this game is basically an update for the last one it's 80% the exact same game with a few new rather creative ideas that expands the already wide freedom sandbox to test even more your creativity for example you can make an airship with just a storage unit u can make your own boost for cars and vehicles. the famous grappler has some new abilities and feels better, a bit complicated but you'll eventually get used to it, the load times are pretty much improved now it's just one loading when starting the game then you just jump in the game the action is pretty good, theres a lot of hilarious easter eggs and references , you have so many means of traveling the huge map, the overall performance is improved tho i noticed some rather downgraded graphics and shorter draw distance, if you're looking for the story in a just cause..wtf are you doing the story isn't anything new. the same revolution **** , other that that's pretty much it as i said a updated just cause 4 with storms and tournados. overall it's a disappointment comparing the jump they made from jc2 to jc3 jc4 feels underwhelming in the mods , abilities variety of cars. it's not by any means worth it's full price of 60 bucks (20$ at max) . this game doesn't deserve a 3/10 neither it does deserve a 8/10 this game is the meaning of mediocre 8n video games a solid 5/10. it's on ps+ now so if you have it or it drops on sale i would definitely recommend it this game can be a lot of fun to the right person.

You may be thinking "You enjoyed it for 10 hours how is that worth a 4" because by the end I looked back on my time and resented the game. It had taken 25 hours of my life and I resented it.

    Ironically where the series constantly fails, is in the very nature of the game, it's basically just create chaos in anyway you please, it gives you a lot to go crazy with, the problem is in a lot of situations things go from fun to very tense. Between a much more aggressive AI, the bad controls, explosions aimed right at you thus constantly being ragdoll'ed around gets pretty annoying quick.
    The Achilles heel for me is the usual terrible mission design, the one that had me rage quit, was where I needed to sit on a center platform very little room to move, while a endless barrage of bullets and grenades thrown at me, so my ally could hack their schematics. If you move around too much and you're out of range and Your progress at that point will start to rapidly decreases, where I had enough was when two grenades left me no where to run, two snipers and two grenades killing me at the last second mark.
    I'm assuming crap like that is why this is a niech title rather than a popular title that would rival say GTA or saints row. Be warned if you are indeed just looking for dumb fun that you can relax to, this game will find a way to ruin it just like it's prequels.

    When Just Cause 4 got announced, I really got excited. The trailers looked awesome, destruction wider and more explosive, the graphics looked better than ever in the series and that tornado!!

    When Just Cause 4 got announced, I really got excited. The trailers looked awesome, destruction wider and more explosive, the graphics looked better than ever in the series and that tornado!! This I thought really couldn't be a disappointment, and after playing Just Cause 3 (which is probably one of the most entertaining games I have played) my expectations were high.

    Then the opening cutscene happened. And.... That cutscene really looked like a bad PS3 game, with bad lip sync and blurry motions. It then switches to the gameplay, again quite blurry and bad frame rates. Well, the first mission was happening at night, so I said to myself, in daylight, it will maybe look better... NO! TWICE AS WORSE! Now it looked like a PS2 game!

    However, the gameplay is still fun as always. Grapple through the world with the parachute and the wingsuit is still a satisfying feeling. So, even though gameplay is the same, I still enjoy it, and I don't mind the game keeping the same formula for this or future installments.
    The new tethers with balloons and turbos are quite fun, but that’s about it. Fun. I couldn't use them effective in combat. Only for stunt jumps that need a balloon to make a car gets extra high in the air, or make a cow do crazy flips with the turbos.
    Combat is also the same and still fun. There is still a nice variety of weapons, with new ones fitting to the themes of the weather, like a tornado gun, which is also quite fun to use.

    Speaking of the tornado and the other weather elements, well they were probably one of the biggest disappointments in the game. In the trailers the tornado looked like a beast that could destroy everything. In the game, it only works as a vacuum with no explosion or catastrophic damage. Houses and cars still are present and untouched after a visit of it.

    The driving is quite frustrating. The handling is bad, especially bikes is rocket science to figure them out. Vehicles are the same models as in Just Cause 3, however I feel in Just Cause 3 the vehicles were fun to drive, but in JC4, they are really bland and unexcited.

    The story in the Just Cause series has always been secondary. However I feel like there is potential for an emotional story about Rico's family. The same in JC3. Without spoiling, Rico's dad's past is the reason Rico is in Solis, however we don't get an explanation why Rico should care about that or a detailed explanation of his dad. Only that his dad was friend with the dictator. There is a lot of interesting characters in the game, including Rico's old boss, Sheldon. But there motivations or backstory is quite left out which is a shame. For me, the only "exciting" characters are the minor, Garland or Javi. They are both interesting and little satirical, but sadly, there are only minor side ops characters. But they are really the most iconic characters.
    The liberation of Solis is really boring. The gameplay is fun, but the objectives are repetitive in the bases. But the liberation of cities and landmarks are questionable. How on earth can stunt jumps or wingsuit races become a factor to liberate those? The liberation in JC3 is way more entertaining and makes sense. To liberate a town you have to destroy the enemy in the town. Not by doing stunt jumps. Well there is a form of liberation, with squads. I don’t mind it, I think it is an ok addition, however, when the squads are liberating regions, I could have likes to come and liberate the regions with your squad instead of it been automatic completed. It could be like destroying things like in JC3. Another thing with good potential, but bad execution.

    I like the layout of the map, with different climates. But it is just a huge map with no life at all. At least not as promised. Wildlife is least present, NPC’s are lifeless and generic and the cities look almost the same. The long distances to travel are boring because of its lifeless world. It just empty fields where a flower is the most interesting to see.

    Comparing Just Cause 4 with Just Cause 3, JC3 is really better at all levels. The only thing I can say I prefer with JC4 is the radio stations in cars. That was not present in JC3, but I didn’t need it in JC3.
    Really, Just Cause 4 is a huge disappointment, liberation is boring, objectives too repetitive, vehicle handling is really a tough one, bad frame rates, ugly cutscenes, and the Story doesn’t live up to its potential. The same with liberation could be a potential but flops. The good thing, which is an important one, gameplay is still fun and I will always enjoy grapple and flying with the parachute and wingsuit.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Just Cause 4 was a disappointing game with pretty bad graphics and the dumbest AI I've ever seen in a game. I bought it thinking it would have at least a semi-good story, as it was promoted with the villain, Gabriela Morales saying she was evil. She literally appears two times in the game and one is a plot-twist where she becomes good. And apart from that, as someone that lives in South America and that has visited a lot of places there, I'm disappointed at its representation of the continent. Mainly the desert and the mountains where nothing like here, with the desert looking mostly as the cliche sandy place, when here it mostly isn't like that, and the mountain region trying to replicate the patagonian region but looking more like North America or Europe. Also, some of the tether option didn't really work, such as the booster. With it I could only turn cars and people into beyblades. Last but not least, for being a physics and destruction game, sometimes it's extremely exaggerated. If an NPC car falls from short distance to the ground, it will always explode. However, Rico can fall from kilometers up in the sky and still survive with no issue at all. Truly a bad game, only buy if it is in sale under $20 dollars, as it's not really worth it. Expand

    Шутерная механика стала немножечко удобней. Разработчики, наконец, догадались повесить прицеливание на левый курок, что было освоено почти всеми ещё лет, эдак, 16 назад.
    Сюжетец стал немножечко более складным. Мы снова занимаемся тем, что портим жизнь простым, мирным жителям. На мой взгляд, серия Just Cause на ряду с Watch Dogs 2 и Far Cry 4, игра в которой по прошествии времени самому хочется пристрелить своих напарников, так тупо они себя ведут.
    Крюк и парашют, да крюк и парашют на месте. Можно теперь шарики надувать, как в MGS5, а так же прикреплять ко всему реактивные двигатели. Как первое, так и второе абсолютно бесполезно, за исключением того, что движки могут взрываться. Но за это игру лишили всех ручных взрывающихся приспособлений.
    Полеты на парашюте и вингсьюте стали немножечко удобней.
    Загрузки стали немножечко короче, а fps теперь проседает немножечко меньше!
    Теперь о грустном.
    Графон, на мой взгляд, стал немножечко хуже. Анимация.....кошмар. Кстати рядовых противников в игре всего вида четыре. Огромное разнообразие. Так же я обратил внимание, что 90% из них были девочки, именно девочки умирающие с таким зажигательным визгом ммммм. Куда феминистки смотрят :)
    Полеты на самолётах......о ужас, ну растут у разрабов руки из жопы в отношении самолётов, ну не вставляйте вы их в игру. Это просто, какая то родовая травма Avalanche, она, как я понимаю, неизлечима.
    Ещё в игре множество "заданий от компаньонов", которые позволяют разблокировать всякие улучшалки для лебедки (шарика и двигателя), но у всего этого есть один огромный недостаток. Практически все они абсолютно бесполезны. В начале по сюжету тебе дают по одной улучшалки для каждого типа, этого достаточно за глаза! Я помню рекламную компанию, в которой все эти фишки очень сильно хвалили. На деле же применять в комплексе всё это негде и некогда. Остановившись по среди боя, применить какую либо комбинацию, ты скорей всего погибнешь через 5 сек!
    Так же авторы полностью запороли свою вторую фишку с торнадо и другими бурями. Управлять ими можно, но в сюжете применить их не получится.
    Кстати игру я прошел не за 18 месяцев как Just Cause 3, а всего за неделю. Это тоже немножечко лучше приквела!
    В Just Cause 4 всё немножечко, что то лучше, а что то хуже. Такое ощущение, что авторов всё устраивает и отзывы и продажи. А если всё устраивает зачем, что то радикально исправлять или менять?
    И оценочка моя тоже будет немножечко выше, чем у Just Cause 3.

    Controlling Rico feels more of the same, but the driving mechanism is as always bad. It does however seem to do okay when you drive fast vehicles. Driving slow vehicles in areas with trees is terrible, vehicles handles bad, goes slow, and seem stuck many times when you hit debris. The Camera acting crazy at times. You are better off on foot and wingsuit or aerial vehicles when travelling around.
    The world is large and nice made, but lacks content. In fact, this game seems to struggle with the typical problems open world game has: Content and lack of diverisity.

    It removes some features from JC3 like grenades.

    This is a fine game that gives you a huge sandbox where you blow up all kind of stuff. The story is just an excuse, the fun comes from gorgeous, absurd non-stop action.

The story is just an excuse, the fun comes from gorgeous, absurd non-stop action. You shoot a fuel tank and it starts burning. Soldiers open fire on you and you tether two of them to balloons, sending them to their airborne fate. You mow down the rest with your trusty machine gun, since they are not dangerous enough to warrant unleashing one of your precious drones. The tank you shot explodes, and the shockwave makes a nearby missile launcher go crazy and discharge all of its missiles randomly. Things start to blow up, with explosive barrels adding to the mayhem. You tether to a building's wall and launch into the air, while all around you the world seems to erupt in flames. Your trusty, self-folding parachute slows your descent, allowing you to tether an enemy helicopter that has opened fire on you. Two seconds later, bye bye pilot, you are in control of the chopper and rain lead on the enemy reinforcements.
    Yes, none of it is remotely believable, but it's spectacular and a lot of fun. People criticize textures and models, but forget that this game does not have small levels that limit geometry. A bird's eye view of the map is always one second away, without frame rate drops or loading delays. If you think you can have a huge game world that morphs into super hi-res graphics the moment you look at something near you, I have a Star Citizen to sell you. I mean, I just played Days Gone and apart from the looong loading times, I would often end up in a zone of the map which the game engine hadn't finished loading yet, sometimes falling through the ground to my doom! JC4 handles its world beautifully and with no such delays.
    That said, I feel Just Cause 3 was indeed better. They tried to change the formula by adding different missions, but it's just as repetitive and somehow makes the experience worse. The intro of JC3 was smooth and bombastic, it made you wanna play the game. The intro of JC4 is essentially nonexistent. The new balloons make most of your weapons redundant against basic enemies, since they are deadlier and consume no ammo. Your old reusable explosives required you to jump into danger to place them, and were a better game device overall. Enemies used to have perfect aim, which was bad, but now cannot hit a barn from ten feet, which is just as excessive. Many small changes did not turn out as good as the designers hope, but I still recommend this game. If you've never played a JC before, though, go grab the 3, which you can probably buy for a pittance nowadays.
    Ah, as of April 2020, I must say that I found no major bugs, the developers must have solved them all by now.

    UPDATE! I changing my review from a 3 to an 10 after playing this game for many hours and the ending is awesome compared to JC3. WOW and take off the HDR setting and the graphics improve 5X. Once you get used to the change in concept from JC2 & JC3 they actually made a really good game with a story that pulls you to the end! So much to do in different ways and I can't stop playing it.

Once you get used to the change in concept from JC2 & JC3 they actually made a really good game with a story that pulls you to the end! So much to do in different ways and I can't stop playing it. The graphics are alright and the draw and frame rate is an issue but the rest of the game makes up for that short fall easily. If you can get it for cheap then this is a must buy if you like JC3. In this game the gun play and auto aim is awesome so it forces you to have great battles on the ground but great battles in the air as well. The epic action is still there and more..... enjoy and just give it a little time for the learning curve and the new concept of play. Enjoy!!! Hope we see JC5 and they make it the best one yet of the series. Expand

    save doesn't work! But I will say in excuse that the game is exciting and very epic. I got Just Cause 4 standard edition for free, so the disappointment is not so big. (Sorry for my English)

    Masochists only - never played a game that not only so fundamentally misunderstands why it’s predecessors were fun but fails to even achieve a basic level of fun without enormous frustration. Should have ended the series as a trilogy.

    What in blue hell happened. It went from being Just Cause to being just 'cause. So frickin lazy, besides the map and gadgets, there isn't much fun in this one compared to 2 and 3.

    Juego sin gracia de mecanicas agradables los primeros 30 minutos, luego se repiten una y otra vez. Sinceramente solo valen las explosiones... Juego sin mucha gracia solo para fans de Just Cause. Suerte que lo compre por 15 € ya que de las 5 horas no he podido pasar.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Just Cause 4, one of the greatest and most enjoyable games i have ever played. The game mechanics work like a dream. Plus, the missions that let you take over parts of the in-game map, it just leaves you wanting to play more. Expand

Графика просто вырви глаз. А физика, почему танк не может переехать кирпичик или переехать авто, зато от дуновения ветра он улетает за несколько км. Или от столкновения с предметом, то же самое. Из-за этого приходилось неоднократно перезапускать миссию. Баги ужасные, иногда, по прохождению миссии, я выполнял задание, а оно не засчитывалось, приходилось делать рестарт. И так неоднократно. Баги с полетами и стрельбой оставляют только наихудшие впечатления. Поэтому я по быстрому пробежал сюжет и удалил игру. Более сносно смотрятся эффекты и разрушения. А все эти фишки с торнадо и бурями не влияют на героя никак. Задумка неплохая, а вот реализация очень плохая, столько можно было с этими бурями интересного сделать. в общем, 4/10 Expand

    Extremely repetitive, trivial challenges and world. Parts of the world also look exactly like just cause 3. Just cause 3 was better.

    Fun for about 3-4 houres. But after that it becomes very repetetive. Simple story, and very simple (bad) animations on cut scenes.

    The controls are horrible. The camera will move up for some reason, enemies won't die, get shot once and your dead. Any positive review is a paid review.

    Just Cause 4 is just another sandbox game that brings nothing new to the table. If you are looking for mindless destruction with a terrible story, this is a game for you. If you’re looking for something deeper, look elsewhere.

    A shallow yet occasionally thrilling sandbox that doubles down on explosively stupid antics. The campaign is too grindy for its own good, and Rico's looks are fading, but this B-tier open world can still charm. [Issue#158, p.78]
