Just a blindingly infuriating game. Feel like there was so much wasted potential here buried under horrible pacing, some of the worst side quests I've experienced in a AAA game and combat system that once you get past the flashy colours, is extremely hollow. The story is what pushed me through and the high points are incredible, filled with amazing spectacle I haven't experienced in a game before. But those high points make the middling and low parts of the game even more frustrating. When I finished my playthrough, all that I could reflect on was that this was a super yacht that is riddled with holes, progressively sinking the longer it went.
