a pretty good game if you're just looking to relax and talk to people, as of this review there is a bit of a modding problem though

Early Access Review
This game is a phenomenal experience in both perspectives and I hope more people pick it up, never bought a game so fast after playing the demo.

TLDR:
I have completed each DLC, the main story, and cleared every province in Just Cause 3, In my experiences this game is a buggy mess that has a few game breaking bugs nearly 3 years after launch, and likewise there are a mass majority of minor bugs that can get fairly annoying after a while, I do not recommend this, buy just cause 2 instead.
---------------------------------------------------------
If I had to start off with the cons I would say:
-The base game has little content past the main story
-There are a large amount of bugs that are not fixed 3 years after launch
-Two of the primary DLC packs are very short (one having only two missions)
-The AI (both ground and air) doesnt even function after a set amount of time, and in the case of jets don't even function after a few seconds in the air
-The province clearing gets super repetitive after a while
-The cars handle like they are full of rocks (similar to The Crew 1 & 2)
-Flying controls are kind of wonky (can be changed but just a minor con)

For an example of a game breaking bug, There is a skill unlocked very early which allows you to AIM, and if you choose to AIM at least once in your game session ALL homing attacks (missiles in planes, boats, cars, on foot, etc.) get disabled until you restart the game, this can get annoying as base clearing is much easier when your weapons actually function the way they were meant to, but who would have thought something as simple as AIMING would break your game nearly 3 years after launch, this is something that should have been patched DAYS after launch, and considering a few missions require lock on aiming, its just not possible to beat it without restarting your game.

The pros:
-The weapons have a good variety, each special weapon with its own unique twist
-Both wingsuits are a good upgrade from JC2
-The flares and rebel drop system is a good upgrade from JC2's Black market
-The DLC missions are fun at times

After the main story you have a variety of challenges to do, as well as searching for collectibles, but beyond that there is mostly nothing to do, and the game has (in my opinion) no replayability, as I was able to complete the entire game (All DLC, Provinces, and Challenges) in less than 30 hours, after a bit, the bugs get more apparent almost like the devs only focused on the main story and just rushed out the DLC without testing them at all, like how does something as simple as AIMING pass playtesting when it causes a large problem in the long run.

To wrap up, I do not recommend this game, unless its like less than $10 for the GOTY (XL) edition of the game, there is just too many bugs and too little content for the price.
