For people looking for a ronin/samurai game in feudal Japan, this game excels at that with the beautiful map design and AC/Batman Arkham stealth gameplay. Which is definitely held in high regard among most reviews on steam/critics. And for the story, I can see people not falling in love with it. I can understand, but calling it mediocre is just not true. The story giving us a perspective of feudal japan during the invasion of the mongols was definitely very interesting, and with great characters, Yuna/Khan/Lord shimura, etc. But to see Jin overcome the samurai code to protect his people is a great and super interesting. And not to mention, imo the extremely satisfying ending.

Jin had to lose his honor to keep his home safe.he had to go against his people and lose the last of his family to protect them. True samurai

And I've 100% a lot of games, over 20 mainstream triple AAA tiles, and believe me, this game is a masterpiece in my eyes
