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.

Yeah I have a feeling I'm going to love this game. I thoughtfully enjoyed the past Infamous games and this looks like their biggest game yet. In terms of scope, polish and gameplay.

Also been dying for a open world game based in Japan in the feudal era. And been wanting an AC to do that since AC3. This looks even better as it won't be tied to the convoluted story in AC and made by a dev that hasn't let me down. Its a shame I have such a large backlog of games otherwise I'd jump on this on day 1.
