There is a lot to love about this game. That being said there are some things to hate. I hate the cairn mini-game. Dumbest thing to put in the game, some of these I have didn't up toward 20 minutes or more just trying to stack the stones to the required height. All the hunting and fishing quest don't make sense either. Chasing tattoo designs, why? The game play is great, storyline is amazing, phenomenal characters, and graphics. But just to get shire completion you literally will spend a minimum of an hour in each shire, not even doing quests. Also there are no quest markers for the shire mystery quest, what is the point. It can take you massive amounts of time just figuring out a tiny unimportant mini quest. Great game, but AC Odyssey was better in a few ways. The amount of time spent in ACO was understandable because the world map was so much bigger and it didn't feel like such a grind to do the side quests. ACV has made me want to throw my controller and walk away. I got the game when it came out and had to stop playing for awhile because it was so tedious in some respects. Still it is a good game if you aren't a completionist like me.
