Yeah, about the only thing that irritated me about the game is that it's like every other damn Ubisoft game when it comes to general game structure. They unleash you into a large world, I decide to run around and do my own thing ignoring the storyline, and before long I have tons of skill points to use to unlock new abilities, however they cripple you by not allowing upgrades until you get to certain points in the story. I hate that.
