The game is pretty good.
It evokes feelings from Assassins Creed, Batman Arkham series, and Farcry 3. Parts of elements feel taken straight from the AC franchise. The vision looks just like eagle vision. The audio filter on logs you find sounds exactly like it does in AC as do some other sounds.
The combat is easier to use, and timing isn't as precise. This doesn't mean the game is easy, I have died many times. But death in the game is important as it plays into how the world evolves.
The main story is not engaging and feels like more of an after thought. Even though the set up is cool. There isn't much substance after that.
But if you enjoy playing Arkham, AC, and Far Cry3 for playing into the open world aspect. Looking at all there is to see, then this will definitely be a good game for you to pick up.
