You realize that just because those are the artistic influences, it doesn't mean the game would be anything like Elden Ring or Wind Waker right? Core gameplay, story, mechanics, etc. You don't have to compare games against other games to measure your enjoyment.

What I do know is Ubisoft makes some pretty damn good games.

Ubisoft used to make good games. Not exactly sure what happened, but now they make mediocre-at-best games.

No they really still do. Odyssey wasn't that long ago. The Far Cry series are fantastic; 5 and 6 especially so.

Far Cry 5 and 6 are the worst rated games of the whole series and illustrate that Ubisoft have no new ideas. Decent games but with too much repetitive elements and stories that can’t hold a candle to the earlier instalments of the series.

I'm not really interested in their ratings. I'm not convinced that game reviewers actually like playing video games.

Additionally, if you've ever played 5, you'll know that it's actually one of the BEST in the series.

Sure, the mechanics and gameplay can get repetitive, but the story and writing are top notch.
