so my dear friends, i have seen many open world games this gen. open world is dominating 8 gen genre like how FPS was last gen. and with many open world games. majority of them are boring.

Just cause 3 might have average gameplay but its actually a fun game unlike popular open world games release this gen. games like assassins creed, witcher 3, GTA, MGS5, far cry primal etc get boring very fast.

just cause 3 is ultimate destruction game that is over the top and actually fun.

so what do you think? lets discuss

Not really. Everything in JC3 was just a slightly different variation of "blow stuff up", it's fun for the first hour or so, then just starts to feel incredibly repetitive.

Other open worlds you mention at least have some variety in there missions.

The more I read your post the more I think you have a secret love for The Witcher 3.

As for the question to the thread I couldn't tell you because the game runs like complete ass. Bought it for 14$ during the holidays and experienced stuttering and dropped frames on a 4790K OC'd to 4.5GHz and a pair of 1080's lol. Got my first refund from Steam.

Not really. A lot of aspects of it are mediocre. Bland characters and story (not that that's the emphasis or point of the game), other than the grappling hook the gunplay and gameplay are pretty boring too, its performance is poor as well. None of the side quests are captivating or interesting and while the settings can seem different the open world is not very alive.

It's only fun when trying to pass time causing chaos.

BotW > MGSV > games not worth caring about.

Not hating on Just Cause 3 though. If it's anything like Just Cause 2 then it's a great playground for random dumb fun and there's nothing wrong with that. Not the kind of game I get invested in, but a good game to just kick back and do awesome dumb stuff. I bet Michael Bay uses it as a test bed for many of his ideas.

Watch Dogs 2 is my favorite open world game this gen. It's the only game that comes close to having a world as detailed and as alive as GTA, but at the same time it's gameplay and mission structure (stealth, hacking, problem solving) is entirely different. Great game all around.

JC3 is a good game for just messing around, maybe even better than WD2. But WD2 dominates when it comes to structured missions, and it runs a lot better than JC3 (on console and PC)

no, it was pretty underwhelming overall. Looks nice and wing-suiting with the grapple hook was fun but the structure was fucking awful.

Mad Max was the superior Avalanche game from 2015, but it has its own problems

i rather play just cause to blow the shit out of em and flying in parachute then play more than 20 minutes of MGS5 phantom pain aka MGS5 doing same thing over and over again.

Every single mission in MGS5 is Same!! otherwise it could have been much much better.

Only played JC2, but to me it carries the same value as something like Goat simulator. So sure, not much value at all lol. But if you set the bar low enough and can turn off your brain for 20-30 minute stretches? Not bad at all.

I get that you want us to post the same old lists again, highlighting the fact that you're incorrect, only so you can ignore it and say the same shit again next week.

But I'm good. Thanks though.

@ghosts4ever: As far as giving the player freedom to do as they wish, maybe, buts that's about it. Other than that it doesn't do anything spectacular. Its a fun game, don't get me wrong, but as others have stated it is pretty mediocre everywhere else.

Honestly, I loved flying around with the wingsuit. Trying out all the different jets, helicopters and planes. There were even WW2 propeller planes.

But the actual gameplay itself, the missions, the 'blow up this red stuff' in all the bases got quite boring.

Which is weird because I thought it would be like Just Cause 2 with tethering stuff together (now with 200% more tethering)... Which it was, but it was still a disappointement ultimately.

lol, no.

Fun game in short bursts but incredibly repetitive.

World is lifeless and boring though.

JC3 is on my 4TB HDD and a part of my backlog of games I own for X1. I will get to it eventually.

I agree FC4 (never attempted Primal), Assassins Creed are boring games.

The Witcher 3 is the best game I have played in years. You differ. Big deal. Doom is a fun FPS not the godsend you make it out to be, imo.

I like JC3 because it's fun blowing shit up, and the grappling hook gives you hours of fun hooking all sorts of things to each other and seeing what happens.

it's interesting that just cause 2 got a lot of praise back in 2010 while just cause 3 has been forgotten, even though just cause 3 is literally a better just cause 2.

No Witcher 3 is better much much better and more fun.

Also Just cause 2 is way more fun than 3 especially considering i dont have to deal with crashes every 20-30minutes and is running like dream unlike JC3.

Also add to that annoyances like no mini map and no sprint button
