I played it some months ago, and liked it. Graphics were great, gameplay variety nice, rather easy but imho many games miss the mark on what normal difficulty is supposed to be anyway so also refreshing, the story felt a bit uncooked and rushed, especially the ending felt like launch window restraints did cut dev time short. But defintiely would welcome another one. I assume The Order could be similar and Ryse kind of heightened my interest in playing the Order. There are eras and character styles that should be in more games. Rome, Greeks, Turks, Mongols, Napoleon, despite being conquerers and kinda the bad guys, wars have interesting stories.
