That is huge hype and expectations around this game. Is an 87 (current as typing this) a score that lived up to the hype? I would say no. I would say it would need a 90 to live up to the hype. Sounds like it suffers from the main fault of 90% of open world games in that it had pointless, boring, tedious side quests to fill up the world.

Three points difference from a small group of strangers on the internet is going to have almost nothing to do with this game living up to the hype or not.  That's going to be determined by the reception from the community and word of mouth.  If the game is a big hit then only people on gaming forums will remember the metascore.

Considering a margin for error, I consider an 87 and a 90 to be basically the same score, anyway.
