With a boring story featuring a main character with no personality at all, a D-tier soundtrack, characters that don't act or talk like humans do, terrible 'floating car' style driving, terrible performance, constant graphic pop-in, and much more - this game is one of the most doo-doo open world messes I have played in a very long time. Featuring the certainly 'tried and true' Ubisoft Montreal™ awful system of Assassin's Creed clones with a fresh coat of paint, this game has nothing to it. It is ugly, a slog to play, broken in many areas, features terribly mapped controls, the list goes on. It is clearly a lazy console port. It isn't ever remotely explained why my character needs to help random people from getting robbed, why I need to invade a construction site full of gang members and kill them all -- there is literally no explanation for any of the boring side content. The game contains far too many car chases - nearly every story mission ends in one - and no way to stop enemy vehicles other than ramming them 40 times, since you can't shoot your gun while in a vehicle (but enemies can!). In my eyes there is nothing that redeems this game, and I can hardly bring myself to complete it, all the while listening to the same 5 songs the entire grind through.

EDIT: I came back to this review after beating it to say that this game is trash and just terrible in nearly every aspect imaginable. No polish, just feels unfinished in nearly every aspect and the story is so boring and mind-numbing that it hurts to even listen try to follow along. This game is a wholehearted disaster from start to finish.

2/10
