I think it's had too much hype and too many expectations. Marketing did too good a job. I didn't watch much of the hype just a few trailer videos, and it's meeting my expectations. But I imagine someone who was really into the hype might feel its not up to what was promised.

I like it. The world visually is like nothing else I've seen. Absolutely amazing. Missions are entertaining. Fighting isn't that good but hey. Few bugs of floating things in the air, but I can live with that. And they'll prob be fixed in a few weeks.

Marketing did a bad job if they overdone it, because they're doing a disservice to everyone, both to the clients and to the developers because of the backlash.

I'm usually quite good as keeping my expectations in check, and I avoid preordering because it's usually not a gamble that gives a good return.
