Just Cause™ 3

14 of 15 markets; the rest we haven't asked for this title, not markets where it is unavailable.

14 on sale1 answered “not sold”0 we did not ask

The 1 “not sold” market is read from the Steam price pass of Sep 9: that day the store answered for this game elsewhere and gave no price there. The 14 priced markets are the same rows as the table above — each the latest price we hold, dated here when it is older than that pass. The 0 marked “not asked” were not put to this store at all — either it has no storefront there or we do not collect it yet, and neither is a statement about the game. A refusal is a refusal on one day; a store can list a title again tomorrow.

Just Cause 3 is an absolute blast. Rico Rodriguez is such a cool protagonist. Being able to grapple onto almost anything, use the wingsuit, and basically fly around the map makes movement incredibly fun. You can approach situations however you want, and the game gives you so many ways to cause chaos. I really like the story and the idea behind it too. You're fighting against a dictator who took control of the country by force, while working alongside the rebels to fight for its freedom. It gives all the destruction you cause a purpose, even if that purpose is sometimes just blowing everything up. 😂 The weapons are great, the explosions are satisfying, and taking down enemy bases never really gets old. There's something incredibly fun about seeing an entire military base turn into absolute chaos because of something you did. The map is also beautiful. The landscapes, mountains, beaches, villages, and ocean make simply wandering around enjoyable. Sometimes I would just fly around with the wingsuit and explore because the world is genuinely relaxing to look at. **However, there was one thing I really wish the game did better: making the rebellion feel like an actual war.** As I liberated more bases and checkpoints, I noticed that the rebels were becoming more powerful and I was unlocking fighter jets, helicopters, tanks, boats, and other military vehicles through Rebel Drop. This made me think that eventually I'd be able to actually coordinate large-scale attacks with the rebels. I imagined being able to call in a few rebel vehicles, have tanks and helicopters follow me, maybe even have fighter jets providing air support, and then attack a heavily defended military base together. That would have made the liberation of each base feel like a genuine team effort and an actual war. The game does have some rebel support. You can occasionally see rebel vehicles fighting the military, and when you're liberating a large base, rebel reinforcements can show up. But most of the time, you still end up doing almost everything yourself, with maybe a couple of helicopters or boats showing up to help. I think this is where the game could have been so much better. If the rebels actually fought alongside you in larger numbers and you could coordinate attacks using tanks, aircraft, boats, and soldiers, it would have made the world feel much more alive and the rebellion feel much more meaningful. Still, despite that, I had a **great time** playing this game. It's chaotic, beautiful, fun, and ridiculously satisfying when you blow an entire military base to pieces. Solid 8/10. 💥
