• Graphics / Audio :
  The Game makes use of the AnvilNext 2.0 Engine which is a Ubisoft exclusive engine known for being a rather buggy Engine. The Game takes place in Bolivia and it captures the feeling quite well with colourful buildings, lots of plants etc. and beautiful enviroment. Textures are sharp with nice lighting and decent effects. Characters do look a little 'unrealistic' but that happens with games where you build your player. Audio isn't anything special as voice acting is acceptable for both languages and it doesn't really have a soundtrack but audio doesn't play such a huge role in that game.

• Gameplay :
  The Game is a classic Open-World Ubisoft game. It has a Huge Map with lots of missions to do, many vehicles to drive, multiple collectibles to get and a mission design that is almost always identical. In Wildlands you have 2 options to take on a mission which is either stealthy, which is nicely made with lots of detail on the stealth elements or you can go loud which is still a lot of fun. Not many games have that trait of being both good stealth and Assault games. ( A few Exampels Far Cry, PayDay 2 and Dishonored ). You can costumize your weapons with different scopes, verticals, skins or even suppressors which is always a nice addition. One huge complain is the driving in the Game as it feels totally irresponsive and simply broken/unrealistic. The Enemy AI isn't the smartest and neither are your squadmates so be careful.

• Story :
  There will be no Spoilers ahead, or not any major ones atleast.
  The Fact that you have to create your player shows that it will not have a crazily deep story and that is the case here. You do not get many cutscenes for a 30 hour story game neither do you have many memorable characters with a deep past. But this isn't the main Focus of the game and i am alright with that, it does have some pretty cool moments especially he ending and the first hours are pretty badass too but do not expect an amazing story.

• Multiplayer :
  The game has huge potential as a Co-oP game just like The Division as long as you find some good players. The Game has another mode called Ghost War which is a PvP gamemode and i have to say it is pretty nice. The Community is still big so do not be afraid of not finding others to play with.

• Performance :
  The Game was tested on a High End Pc ( Intel Core i7 & GTX 1070 ) and it runs is easily on Max Settings.
  It was tested on a Mid Range Pc too ( AMD FX6300 & GTX 760 ) and it did run decently on High-Medium settings.
  I Had no crashes or game breaking bugs.
  *Was getting atleast 30 fps with 1080p res.*

• Price :
  It is currently available for less than 20 Eur. which is a great value in my opinion.
  The DLCs from the other hand aren't that great.
  
  Recommended if you need to help a Drug country be 'CLEAN'.

Essence of the game: Kill all drug cartel fiefs (everyone cartel related really).

The game overall plays out like this:
1. Enter a region.
2. Receive a radio communication from the task giver, where she tells you about the fief in the region, that she has no idea where that person is. However she knows about a couple of points of interests (typically 4-5) which are then marked in gold on the map.
3. You travel to each POI and as you reach each of them, they transform into another POI on the map, some distance away.
4. You travel to that new POI location.
5. Once you've visited all of POIs in the region, a final POI is marked on the map.
6. You travel to the final POI and is tasked with killing or kidnapping a person.
7. You again travel a fair distance to some specific safehouse where you drop the kidnapped person off, and the story progresses a bit. You are told about the impact of the loss of this fief to the cartel organisation.
8. Repeat 26 times from step 1.

This game is long. The main reason for that is cheap padding.
1. A constant back and forth travelling (backtracking) where travelling between a single POI to another may take 3-4 minutes by helicopter or many times that with a land vehicle.
2. In between each step above, you will face an infinite number of enemies, that respawn "as soon as you turn your back on them". Or more accuratly, as soon as you've moved a short distance away.
3. In order to not be annihilated you need to upgrade your skill tree and that is accomplished by... you guessed it, boring fetch quests, travelling to yet other POIs on the map, where you have to kill hordes of respawning enemies.
4. You can't just acquire new and improved weapons and addons for your weapons stash from killed enemies, no you need to travel far and wide to hundreds of additional POIs, where the same "Crate" will exist with a trophy in it.
5. Each item you seek is typically placed as far away from you as possible, while still fitting in the overall story segment. For example, it's almost certain that if there's a village with an item in it, then the item will be located in the highest building, at the top floor, as far away from the stairs as possible. It seems UBI used an algorithm for travelling salesman problem where they inverted the heuristic to produce the location with the furthest travelling distance from any other point on the map.

Liked:
Even though the game has all its problems, the cheap tricks to pad its length, and the constant repetition, I still found it a blast to play, in small chunks.

* Performance, it ran beautifully at 90/120 FPS on my Intel Core i7 4790K, with a Geforce GTX 1080ti and 16 GB RAM at 2560 x 1440 (1440p) G-synced resolution. No crashes.
* Voices. Acting was rather good I found and added quite a bit to the immersion. Your team mates respond to surroundings. In the beginning I was impressed by the variety of comments by the AI mates, but found they ran out of ambient dialogue after about 10% into the game. A potential for improvement in UBIs future titles, but as a proof of concept, I think it turned out rather well and applaud the devs for the idea.
* Graphics. The scenery is absolutely stunning. From snow covered mountains to dense jungles. Nothing beats flying a helicopter over cities, canyons, bridges, the jungle and the alps. It's something very relaxing about it. The character models also looked great. Attention to detail was overall very high imo.
* Gunplay. Bullets have trajectories! Head shots are fatal! Unarmored enemies are not bullet sponges! Weapon handling feels a bit on the realistic side when compared to other titles, with weapon weight and stats playing into how the weapons behave. Overall I found gun fights highly enjoyable, which really is a saving grace as you wade through the hordes of zomb... I mean cartel and unidad soldiers.
* Rebel assistance. This is a new thing I believe in UBI titles. Along with your skill tree, there is a separate branch which allows various forms of assistance from bolivian rebels. The types include sending grunts to help you in gun fights (can make a HUGE difference, especially for timed challenges), calling in mortar strikes (Awesome, especially for taking out pesky drone jammers), helping with recon etc. I found the former two great, while the rest I never saw a use for.
* Your AI mates aren't completely useless! They're definitely not Rainbow six good, but they're much better than in your average FPS title.
* The story was OK. It definitely wasn't CDPR good, but much better than other UBI titles. It also served a purpose, giving you enough of a justification for exploring areas. But it sure as hell is better then Farcry 5's cornucopia of nothingness.

Lastly, i wont buy the 2 DLCs... dont seem worth it, i mean 90+ hours was enough for me. And those microtransaction LOL just LOL.

Overall awsome game, buy it on sale thou.

Huge map, awesome graphics and level design. The world feels rich and alive. There is a lot of things to do. Actually, it may be a little repetitive (Get Intel, clear outpost, kill people and repeat). I must say this is realistic because I guess it work like that in the real life to take down a whole drug cartel.. Beside that, vehicules are painful to drive with a keyboard, I actually play the game with keyboard and drive vehicules with my controller, a lot easier and smoother. You can turn down some HUD information to make it more immersive, also changing outfit and gears depending on the environement.
