I finished AC6 (3 playthroughs) and to be honest, If you haven't done 3 playthroughs you've pretty much dropped this game and haven't finished it. This is a 60 hour game, not a 20 hour one. After your first playthrough there is at least one more playthrough worth of new content.

The music was great, though I do miss the punk rock of AC4, this style of music fits the theme of the game a lot better. The fights (every one) felt epic and pumped me up to be better than the last fight. Bravo again to Kota Hoshino.

The customization aspect was also another part of the game I thoroughly enjoyed. I spent at least ~15 hours customizing my AC and making lots and lots of emblems for it

In my first playthrough I played as Mr. Krabs (tetrapod heavy), Plankton(reverse joint lightweight) and Spongebob (biped midweight) ACs.
In my second and third playthroughs I made an AC inspired by the F1 Car MP4-23. And yes all decals are hand-made by me.

Honestly, this game has its balancing issues but they can all be sorted out in due time. For now though, this game is the best game I've played this year (yes better than TOTK) and lives up to the legacy of older AC games. 9.5/10. Next stop, Starfield, September 6th.
