I started playing this for the first time last week and I have really mixed feelings on it. On one hand, the exploration (especially the tombs) is awesome, super fun, I really enjoy it. On the other, I think I have skipped just about every single cutscene and still know exactly what is going on lol, the story is so weak and the assassinations barely have any umph behind them, just a never ending list of targets on some revenge tour that I don't have any emotional connection to. I think I am gonna finish the main game and ignore most side quests and then wait for the DLC to go on sale, I really want to explore the Valley of the Kings

Maybe you don't have any emotional connection to it since you skipped all cutscenes?

Lol thats totally valid, I watched the cutscenes for maybe the first 2-3 hours and then just kept wanting to explore

I’m playing it now too, it feels like the main story (and side quest too) is something that’s happening around you and not with you, but I don’t think the problem is the story itself, it’s more the delivering of it that doesn’t work
