I absolutely enjoyed this game a lot. I finished it in 35 hours and enjoyed all the time spent. There's plenty of different stuff to do, but you really don't need to do any kind of grinding if you don't want to (except perhaps some of the hunting, but it's not a pain to do anyway).
It's not revolutionary anymore, but the game delivers what you'd expect. I love that you can go all ninja with the bow and throwing knives, but you can just as well pick up the LMG and a grenade launcher and blow stuff up. Can't think of any better open world game (except perhaps Far Cry 5 ;) ).

I had no problems with paying for unlockables or anything, some things I didn't like:

- I would've loved a bit more choices. You get to choose about 4 or 5 times during the storyline, I doesn't always matter (actually it only matters 2 times) and I would have liked more choices (like 5-6 diffferent outcomes) and more times to choose that matter.

- There was a lot of hassle in the beginning, after seeing the 10 minute intro cut scene I wanted to adjust mouse sensitivity. I had to edit the config file for that, and then I also had to add launch parameters to skip the brands in the beginning. Then I had to watch the cut scene that I'd already seen AGAIN ... The good thing is the dishes got done but djeez, if I've seen it once, at least allow me to option to skip at that point.

All in all, if you want to play an fps with a story in an open world that still looks very nice ... go for it!
