How to pronounce "cause" in the game's name?
I'm sort of torn between pronouncing cause like "cuz" as in "because" or as "cause" as in the cause of something. How do most people pronounce it?

Cause. It is because the mission, to bring down the corrupt guy, is just (Good).

It is pronounced cause, like the word Santa Claus. There is no other way.

... because isn't supposed to be pronounced "Be-Cuz." It is supposed to be pronounced "Beh-Cause." People do not know how to speak English well anymore, it's sad really.

Umm people do still speak English well, the language has just changed a lot over time. Pretty much everyone now says because like be-cuz, even the English people themselves.

The lack of accented syllables and letters in the language never really helped it stay the same either.

I feel like it's meant to be ambiguous... Sure the main character is fighting for a "just cause" but he's also blowing stuff up "just 'cause."

I thought it was intentionally ambiguous. But I pronounce it like a cause that is just, not just (be)cause.

It's supposed to be pronounced like a cause that is just, but the name itself is a joke that it is a Just Cause, but you're also doing things Just (be)Cause.
