To be honest, this games does have its cons but I think the cons are easily be ignored.
This game is a step up from any other far cry with a brilliant story and a huge map and I mean huge and beautiful, I haven't seen a city in any other far cry game but this one, admittedly I haven't completed the game but I am having fun on it, I have played for almost 7 hours now and haven't discovered even a quarter of the map yet.
You can't just fly everywhere without consequences as there are anti aircraft cannons.
People mostly speak English with a few word of Spanish, not enough Spanish so that you don't understand but, a really good mix of Spanish and English.
I think they have done good with other characters and their personalities as no one feels the same.
The main character you play as Dani (I chose male Dani) is funny and has a good personality unlike previous far cry games.
The main enemy has a very interesting story as you will see when he is first introduced.
I love how the game feels.
Cons-
1. The game feels a bit like previous games
2. Action mode (hard mode) doesn't feel like it's hard enough, feels like it's on medium difficulty
3. no Hurk (I haven't progressed far enough to see him atleast)
