Pros

Story is extensive, evolving and being added to as chapters are released
Great PVE gameplay (from beginning to end game, which was just added in chapter 3)
Added ability to back up your base (if you want to take a break without consequences) or want to transfer servers
Base building is a bunch of fun
Gathering whether it by buggy (mining) or gathering spice with a sand crawler + carrier is a bunch of fun (spice crawling is especially iconic)
PVE DD Instance(s) for PVE players
PVP DD Instance(s) for PVP players
No unwanted PVP in Hagga Basin (PVP DD for those that want to PVP)
Changes to get gear isn't locked to PVP areas (which was at launch)
Devs actually take into account what is said in their Discord (to an extent)
Content every 3 months is a decent pace (get to play how you want, without feeling like being left behind)
So far actual content isn't hidden behind an expansion or DLC
Lots of building looks in DLCs
Fixing quite a few bugs recently
Can take a break whenever you want (can backup your base if you're taking a break for 3-4+ weeks)
Recent patch added some new missions

Cons

PVP isn't in a great place (no incentive to PVP)
PVP is completely unbalanced at the moment
Bugs, lots of bugs (some mere annoyance, others aggravating and some potentially devastating)
Support in general doesn't help you get your gear, vehicles, etc. lost (even if it's a bug)

Didn't handle the server merges very well (didn't seem to use current population data)
Conclusion
It's a great game (one of the top games for PVE currently), and could become a solid one for PVP if/when they add/change PVP endgame like they did for PVE endgame (recently). The amount it costs vs the amount of time you'll get out of this game (even including if you buy the season passes and/or individually buy the DLCs) is absolutely worth the money.
