Yeah, I don't get it, the 2nd one is also kinda meh compare to what other contemporary games were already doing at the time. (tech/style/game mechanics). Like yeah you don't have to follow the trend, but it still feels like a quake era game in the Assassin's Creed era(don't know what other games to better show the 2010s open world trend).

Great example with AC. AC2 came out a year prior and brotherhood around the same time as A:MR. Say what you want about the series, those 2 games were excellent. Leaps and bounds ahead of what we saw with Alice.
