I've played a lot of buggy games this last decade, they are legion, but this is my first time in a very long while that I've played a game that crashes twice within the first hour of play. I really want to give this game a thumbs up, but I just can't. I expect better from a studio like Ubisoft. There are other things that motivate my thumbs down.

The initial story narrative does not feel good at all. It could have been entirely omitted up to the moment where we wake up in the pod and I feel that it really wouldn't have changed much to the narrative.

The Navi Instinct effect is trash. It is clearly meant to be an Avatar version of the instinct mechanic found in all Assassin's Creed games, but it is worse. The graphic overlay of this effect is way over the top. I wish I could just get rid of it.

The one thing where Ubisoft does deserve credit is the environment. It is absolutely gorgeous. That's about all that I'm willing to credit them for so far.
