The thing holding this game back is the open world. The combat was great. Incredibly satisfying. Just too much running around to get to it. Story was nothing special. I think it was really well done and not sure they could have done better at telling this story. It just did not grab me in any meaningful way. Combat brings this game up so higher than the open world though. DLC was also fantastic and introduces some great mechanics. Haven't tried legends mode. No couch co-op so cant play now.
