I posted my thoughts in the video game thread, I'll throw them here too. Not too high on it so far.
Granted I haven't got past the point where it turns into it's "real game" first. But that in itself is a problem... I've been playing for two and a half hours and I'm not even the main character yet. It's two minute cutscene, 30 seconds of gameplay, repeat, for two hours. I'm sure it gets better when it opens up, but why start so dull and dreary? Ugh.
Not to mention the bugs. Worse than Skyrim so far. I've had a gun that I needed to pick up to complete a mission not appear, guns not fire, a group of red coats glitch out while they were chasing a guy during a story mission, a horse get stuck in a trough, a wolf get stuck in a tree, and a character's facial animation just not work at all in a cut scene. IN TWO AND A HALF HOURS. At the start of the game, when I'm not even exploring the open world. And yes, I downloaded the day one patch. It must've been downright unplayable without it.
Not overly impressed so far. Obviously I'll give it a lot more playtime but it just feels rushed and unfinished and poorly executed so far. Hopefully I get to actually play as the cool, advertised main character soon..
