Depends on what you prioritize. If exploration and finding cool stuff is your main attraction, it's much less interesting here than in the other games. In Origins, Odyssey, Valhalla, when you get on a perch and look over the landscape you can literally go to any point on that map. In Shadows, 80% of the map, at least in the first 8-10 hours or so, are narrow pathways and unclimbable mountains. And that's not including the constant linear story missions that have zero exploration or anything interesting to find. I loved going anywhere and climbing everything in previous games, I spent many hours just going off in a random direction and getting into stuff, so it's a disappointment in this game for sure.
