The story and atmosphere are great. Great design in visuals. Shooting gameplay is nice but the looting system where you collect every gun is outdated. Not shooting out of cars and no unscripted chases. The hype was unnecessary and led to bigger outrage. Due to all promises of reaching GTA/RDR level. Endings are all bittersweet and thus all feel like you achived nothing and you can choose them at the game ending. almost ME3 style. If the bugs wont stop you from enjoying the game its a fine product. But you can't ignore the voices about underderlivering and lies due to them being every where. Valhala has more busy open world then this. Oddysey has mercenary system. this doent even have cops chacing you. Neither gangs renown. This should have been mission to mission game like Deus Ex with little to no open world. While ubisoft games have weaker story their gameplay delivers a stale formula but still better with minor upgraded almost every 2 years. There are worst games than this but there are also better games, and atleast the weak ones are not such a disappointment. Developers did a great job but the marketing and managment manage to destroy good will of consumers. I do have a fools hope that they will somehow fix this in 2 years.
