Judging by the reviews, the game does exactly what it said it was going to do. A 9/10 if you were sold on a classic samurai open world action game. A fair bit lower if
1. The setting and presentation alone doesn't excite you.
2- You are suffering from open world fatigue and need unique twists to gameplay.
I'm somewhere inbetween. Absolutely exhausted by over inflated games and massively sparse open worlds. But also completely a sucker for polish, delicate presentation and strong atmosphere. Something the recent AC games have lacked despite looking appealing to me on the outset.
