It's impossible to be enthused about Just Cause 3. Everything about it has been done, to death, by myriad other games, not just over the past decade but this year. Developer Avalanche's other sandbox effort from September, Mad Max, was a lot drier and duller but was built on the same standard, open-world model – go here, find these things, bring them back, tick another box. Assassin's Creed: Syndicate is a similar kind of game, so is Metal Gear Solid 5, Batman: Arkham Knight, Dying Light, and so on.
Some games make up for a lackluster story with excellent gameplay. These are some games with average storylines but great gameplay.
Who decides if a games story is average idefinitely ain't listening to no reviewers. I don't agree with most of then anyway. I think alot of them are to harsh on games so they can get clicks
The pinnacle of bad story but great gameplay is Destiny and Destiny 2. What is the Traveler? What is the Darkness? What the heck is happening? No one knew. But shooting the aliens and robots felt so good.
This week in gaming deals we have Mass Effect Legendary Edition the cheapest it's been so far, along with great deals on other games
Overpowered guns can often ruin the balance of a game but they can also be a ton of fun. Unless you're on the receiving end, of course.
You're not doing it right. You're supposed to play around with the physics and have fun. Try again.
There are NO games doing what Just Cause does.
"Eventually the dust settles and the real reviews come in." Said a user on here who thought FO4's reviews were too high. Well, I'm sayin it about JC3. >:o)
I am having a ton of fun with it...
Sure, everything it does has been done before. (Well, almost... the flight suit really is impressive.) But the point is, JC3 does what it does *right*. It's not philosophically profound, it's not intended to push back the frontiers of gaming... it's intended to be *fun*.
You can ding off a point or two for not innovating, if you choose. Knock off another point for still needing some patch polish. (Though I've got a 970 and an SSD, which helps a lot.)
But that still only gets you into the 6-7 out of 10 range. 4/10 is just clickbait.
