I personally am very fond of the assassin's creed video game series and have already played most of them, thus I have seen a lot of improvements in this game contrasted by as many downgrades:
The graphics, cinematography, special effects, environments and even the smallest of details in game are fun to watch and experience without mentioning the amazing effort put to make ancient Greece come to life with its architecture, stories, culture and so on
However, the gameplay is not as enjoyable as it was in the earlier series, the game is repetitive and gets boring once you finish it, the parkour and stealth which were the most interesting parts of the whole franchise seems weird, slow and heavy nowadays
To sum up, I would highly recommend this game as an RPG since the world is massive and the journey is long and fun overall, but I would not really suggest it to someone who is looking for a classical assassin's creed experience.
