    Is it worth buying it now?

    I'm serious about the question above.

    I mean, I have things to do at the moment, I have games to play, but still, my hand sort off itches to buy it. But the itch isn't very prominent.
    I've played both Betas. Felt "meh" after a while. The graphics seemed bugged although they fixed many issues between the betas.

    Still, should I wait another month or should I cave? I mean, there's still only the main story with some side activities which can be done anytime you want.

    I'm more inclined to wait a few weeks at least, but want to know various reasons to get the game.

    The main reason I didn't yet order it is the graphics problem (textures not loading or loading only low quality) and the fact that the game couldn't hold (in Beta) a solid 60FPS at 1920x1080 on a GTX1080 and i7-6700K (+ssd +32GB RAM).

    the main story is very big and there is a lot of sides mission and a lot of territories to explore, and unless your playing with a team that know what they are doing your best hope of advancing quick is to play with your ai team because in matchmaking people seem to think this is a overdress grand theft auto so your going to be redoing a lot of mission because people keep rushing instead of playing tactical. But to be honest this game demand a lot of time and effort to put in, lot and lots of hours and so if you have little time per day to play the game my suggestion would be to pass and buy for honor instead or keep playing it if you already have it. I for example have to work 5 days a week and I cannot play this game for 8 hours strait per day so im advancing very slowly so im considering returning to for honor which is more suited for player with less time to play in my opinion. But content wise the game is worth it that's for sure your in for lot and lots of hours of fun or frustration depending how and with ohm you play the game.

    I too work 5 days a week, and the evenings are spent with my family. Advancing slowly is not a problem. It's the solo player grind.

    I didn't like For Honor, though.

    as I told you before solo player grind is much faster then matchmaking with a bunch of people who don't know what they are doing, if you learn how to use properly your ai squad your going to get through mission way faster then in matchmaking. But as I told you before prepare for lot and lot of hours of grind I don't know if you have ever played the witchers wild hunt but I think its a good comparison lots and lots of side mission and enemies everywhere. And its not just the side mission its also the competence point you have to go take the guns and the attachment to gun that makes a lot of stuff to do, so if you where wondering if this game is worth the money you will invest in it sure but be prepare for long hours of grind!!!

    This is true for the following reasons:

    - Enemy AI never triggers on friendly AI players, they do on human players.
    - Friendly AI never misses a syncshot unless line of sight is broken, real players will.
    - If you have less than 3 friends to play with, you end up understaffed.
