This game was made for people with OCD I swear. "Ok, let's once again sail for a minute to get to an island to get a treasure and an Animus Fraction generic collectable thing...why? Idunno, let's go to the next one now!" Granted, collecting stuff is more useful than the last game easily, to the point that despite doing a lot of side stuff I don't have enough supplies for a certain upgrade that the game is strongly recommending I get before doing a mission in Sequence 6.
This game does have sidequests with story too, some of the other games do too. Which is good.
But this game is too much, I think I've played for 20 hours and am like 1/3 or so done with everything. I doubt I'm gonna 100% this or every close. I'm not sure if this version got the DLC but even if it didn't...I don't see how why I should care. This game has too much content already, I don't need more! Do I have to go to rant again about Sonic Colors being a short game and how much that was a good thing? But at the same time, it is my fault for spending so much time on these silly collectibles and it isn't like this isn't a common problem in open world games anyway.
I know some games can be too long, but I don't feel that applies here since soooo much of the content is side quests that can be completely ignored. They are for the people who want a bit more of the game.
A game that's too long would be if the main story missions outstayed their welcome. Black Flag does not do this.
