“[h1]Review after rolling credits: [i]Just Cause 4[/i][/h1] I [i]swear[/i] I was ready to give this game a thumbs-up. It is capable of looking pretty nice sometimes. Not always - maybe not even often - but sometimes. The…”
“Square Enix dropped ball on this one. While weather catastrophes were fun, the rest of the game felt like slopified JC3. Due to this and many not fixed bugs I cannot recommend this one.”
“found the game fun, idk what all the hate and fuzz is about. if you come to play it with a just cause 3 mindset sure, but you should approach it like a new game with extremely fun sandbox mechanics and total freedom on…”

“[quote][b][u]Quick Summary[/u][/b] [b]Story:[/b] Short but enjoyable, with some nice backstory on Rico and the Agency, leading to a satisfying ending. [b]Gameplay:[/b] Shooting and traversal are fun, though it doesn’t…”
“While I enjoy playing, usually just as a sandbox and not the story, I cannot recommend. It is an obvious PC port, with some of the worst controls of any PC port. The whole menu design and user experience has not been…”
“Still a good game, even though there some minor changes as compared from the predecessor. The story of the game uptil now is good too, so can't understand the criticism”

“Its good but the older parts are more chaotic and it gets boring very fast and the story is boring if you play abit . The graphics are good for the age but its not the best. Worth to buy if you like the other parts or…”
“Game plays like a slightly worse JC3, worth it for a new experience.”

“Before the review the best advice - when you start the game head to options and disable "Leaderboards" or your game will be constantly freezing trying to compare EVERY little action to other players, which almost made…”
“This game is honestly really fun I first bought it and was having a good time until it started crashing and freezing I tried fixing it and was disappointed I couldn't refund the game cause i played it to long and a half…”
“I really enjoyed this game. The achievement hunt was super fun as well. The graphics are good and the gameplay was smooth / fun.”

“Don't get this game expecting it to be anything like JC3. There are no bases or cities you liberate. Objectives aren't clear. Main missions have very long cutscenes that are unskipable. Controls are changed from JC3,…”
“The story is really lackluster and inconsequential. Boils down to stopping weather modification with a side story of learning about Rico's father. Leans even prominently into the Mexican ethnicity of Rico and revolution…”
“Well, it's an alright game. The story, admittedly, sucks, with most "cutscenes" lasting like two sentences. I have no particular gripe about the controls, but that may be because I haven't played any of the previous…”

“Bought the complete edition. Crashes constantly. I've spent more hours trying to fix the problems that it has than playing. Even if the game on sale, even free, your time: isn't.”

“I have to agree with many reviewers. JC2 was better than JC3 and JC3 was far better than JC4. Square Enix managed to break a lot of gameplay elements that made JC2 and JC3 so much more fun. When JC4 got mixed reviews on…”
“People can say whatever they feel about this game, good, bad, mixed. But you can't deny that the game looks fairly nice and you can have some fun in it. So yeah I recommend this game for the fun. Even if you don't buy…”

“It's not a bad game, it's just not as good as Just Cause 3, which is a shame. I'd recommend getting it on sale.”
— a player, Steam review · 18 hrs played“Good mindless fun. That's how i'd define this game. I'm a very simple man to please. I shoot gun, I grapple away, I parachute through the air, I blow things up. It's very entertaining even if it's a bit dull in some areas. I do wish there'd be at least one more installment to…”
— a player, Steam review · 40 hrs played“Get JC3 instead of this game, this game was bad enough to have essentially killed the franchise. It is made worse if you have played JC3 because you know what you've been deprived of in this game. Beautiful scenery - Gone - The colourful, interesting tiled rooves of Medici have…”
