Even aimlessly exploring Medici’s lush archipelago yields up a myriad of opportunities to sow chaos and discord-and sometimes inadvertently help you in the long run. Every major action set piece is so elegantly constructed to produce a kind of disbelieving laughter in the player as they blaze a trail of devastation. Just let that sink in for a second, because this moment will set the tone for the entirety of Rico’s adventure through his former homeland. Just Cause 3 begins with Rico Rodriguez on the roof of a plane, shooting down F-16s with a rocket launcher. The plot here is little more than an elaborate pretext to engage in its gleefully souped-up action-movie gameplay, and frankly, that’s the way it ought to be. Most players won’t need much prodding to take out the army of an insane, egocentric dictator, and even those that might will enjoy the sheer delirium of causing chaos on a massive scale. The story is about as paper-thin as such things get, and the villain is about as straightforward and hateable as they come. There’s really not much tying this installment to previous games in the series aside from the odd cameo. For those among us who haven’t heard of Just Cause 2, don’t worry.
