Your not wrong, that’s v impressive.
I loved the first even if it did get slightly repetitive. Maybe it’s an Ubi thing as FC2 did a similar thing (repetitve/small amount of mission types) yet I finished both 100%.

I haven’t, but that the same with all games.
Buying games month after their release = huge savings.
