I'm not too far along yet, but there are so many things I love about the game.

I really like the voice acting. Jacob and Evie are entertaining as hell.

There is so much to do, so many skills to get. It's going to take quite a while to do everything and that's a great thing.

From someone who has played all other AC games, the rope launcher is the greatest invention ever. I know some people don't like it because you can scale to the top of viewpoints/buildings super quick. But you don't have to use it if you don't want. And also, after climbing hundreds upon hundreds of buildings since the first AC, it's a really nice convenience imo. The biggest thing though, is being able to stay on rooftops so much easier. Being able to cross streets without having to look for a rope (sometimes that isn't even there) is so amazing.

Anyway, I know I'm pretty late to the party on this game but I'm just loving it.
