In terms of the open world its basically AC Odyssey, right down to the horse mechanics.
Combat is quite fun. Harder than expected because you are made of paper and have to react extremely fast to properly counter all the attacks coming at you quickly, because Mongolians have no honor. Bows are literally demons with how cheap they are mid fight.
Story is amazing, and has a strong theme of honor vs survival. The first scene alone had me immediately invested in killing these fucking savages.
I'm only a couple hours in, but so far seems well worth it. The "Kurosawa Mode" also looks like an amazing bit of replayability.

I totally forgot I have a sealed copy of AC Odyssey somewhere. ?
The black and white mode seems hard for a first run because the detail changes and can throw you off.
Yeah, I would definitely not play first run on it. Game's quite rough already, don't need more problems.
And AC Odyssey is a decent enough game too. I got a solid 70 hours of an alright time out of it.
