    Cloth map in the box game is pretty cool!

    In all fairness, the look & feel are quite good & when (if) the current issues are fixed, I'd have no problems recommending it.

    However at the moment I'd still be staying away. The current mainline quest bug can be avoided if you know about it (too late for me), but it kind of takes the mystery away when you know what's coming & have to play in a linear fashion to avoid it. Plus who knows what other ones are still out there that have yet to be encountered. And there still seem to be many other minor quest bugs which are hitting people randomly so you certainly can't enjoy the full game as intended right now.

    The savegame issues also seem to be linked to the horrible Uplay client forced on people, but nobody seems to know for sure so no guarantee you won't lose dozens of hours of gameplay at some point for a reason nobody can explain.

    Unfortunately as with MM9, the game is an unfinished beta, although in this case it seems that the testing was inadequate, rather than knowing it was unfinished as with MM9. This also seems to be common with Ubisoft titles. I'd still be waiting until at least the first patch to see how much they actually fix, & keeping an eye on the forums to see what's still an issue.
