Let's list off my pros Open World Weapon Unlocks Weapon Customization Interesting collectibles Fun to drive vehicle Fun to explore environment More engaging enemies Not just human NPC enemies Realistic sniper scope adjustments List of my cons Cannot remove silencer even though it degrades Sometimes get hitched on the environment Sniper deployment is sometimes finicky to get a good angle Difficulty compromises aren't super clear Honestly I am having soooo much fun. I have been putting off progressing the story because I want to explore the world and find hidden secrets etc. the first 2 games I plowed through because the collectibles were not interesting, and the story was great, but there was only one way to approach each situation This one offers so much more variability I am not looking forward to going back to the linear levels in Contracts
