First: must understand. You kinda have to play with a friend in order to understand the machanics for first time users. This game is good if you or your friend has a decent comp, you can play on the bus and learn a lot. This is a time consuming game that will leave you forgetting what time it is. Its machanics are somwhat hard to understand but that makes it better once you understand it

People who are familiar with series: A huge leap from predessor, there is(was) a debate weather 4 was better then 5. If you want to buy this game, GET ALL THE DLC, you can get most or some of the elements from 4

Pros: For such an old game (7 years) it still holds up and can be supported by more portable pcs
Fun
lots of mods
can hold itself agianst 6
cheap alt for 6

cons: hard for new players
ai gets backstabby and annoying after prince diff
some minor glitches(doesnt affect overall gameplay)
you can put it down for a while and forget it
theres a "finish line" that leaves you bored after you pass it

Overall: GET THE DLC FOR BEST EXP. cheap alt for 6, holds itself without much pc power, fun, make sure you play with a friend or vids
