Beautiful graphics. In depth captivating story/plot that really makes you want to continue further. Smooth controls, travelling doesn't feel like a burden especially since you can gather supplies while still horseback. Awesome combat, fairly difficult but not impossible to adjust to it if you are familiar with similar games. Not too far into it now but the customization seems wide. Different areas of skills, a wide variety of sword skins as well as armor, bows, and tools. Very immersive as is the world around you. You clear Mongols out of a town and return to see your people back home fixing and resuming their ways of life. Really cool navigation system that blows the wind toward objectives instead of the classic waypoint marker and a highlighted path. The open world is really unique, the map seems fairly large, and there are a lot of different places with different rewards to check out. About 8 hours in, I give this game five stars and I'm excited to continue. I recommend to anyone who enjoys samurai culture as well as open world third person action games.
