I was originally considering giving this a 5/5 because you get to kill Jared Leto, but not all of the missions are created equal, and, though this first entry ended up having better cutscenes than its follow-up, other features are great here, but still evolving.

Overall, this is one BIG, badass, modern stealth assassination sandbox suite of options, approaches, and ways to generally fool around like an idiot, while watching the life leave people's eyes. I will likely end up considering the WoA trilogy as one game, but, for now, having just beaten Part 1/Season 1/What have you, I'm highly impressed, but still waiting for true stealth perfection.

3.5/5. 7.5/10. C+/B (When it comes to letters, a B feels much more accurate).
Solid as hell game. So many layers.

The “always online” bullshit is bogus, though, and some of the missions are too, which makes it take a bigger hit than normal when there’s only six.
