The characters and story are really weak, and the voice acting sounds like it was all individual lines read from a single sheet of paper without any context to the larger conversation. And of course the moral ends up being "man bad, woman good". The gameplay was decidedly meh with only a couple of fights really standing out. The fact that the "tribes" are all 90s cartoon-level diverse is really immersion breaking.
Unfortunately this applies to most open world games. I'd describe its main rival (BotW) similarly, though that one has great writing and characters to make up for it. What it comes down to usually is if those fights are good enough to justify everything in between, travel, prep, grinding to get to and beat them.
Which, based on the words of people I know who don't get into the political side of these things, the game did succeed at.
one thing that also annoyed me. The handholding in the very basic puzzles the game had.
Stand still for more than a moment and she will start monologing about "maybe i should do this this and this"
Of course modders fixed it because there is no option to disable it in the menus.
