It's pretty good and fixes a lot of the problems FC3 had. I don't think it's as good as Mordor though.

Things it does right:

Guards much tougher and are not just either bullet sponges or made of glass

Your team is actually useful, can be hired and upgraded

Wingsuit can be bought for really cheap at the start of the game once you can buy things

Healing syringes now auto craft

Hunting, fireproof and sprint syringes can now be upgraded into very useful things

Once you've skinned enough of an animal so that you don't need its hide for crafting any subsequent skins are included in auto sell

There is no "south island"; Northern Kyrat opens up and is not the barren wasteland that the south island was.

Can reset outposts at the start

Piles of side quests and new game modes

Co op is amazing fun

No cassowaries

Things it doesn't do right:

Unskippable intro

Shangri-la is weird until you figure it out especially healing wise

Eagles are really annoying and dumb

It's cool but those loving eagles are like cliff racers. The dogs are annoying too.

FC4 is really good to me, but anyone saying it's better than Shadow of Mordor is wrong.

This game is awesome. You can blow up an elephant with C4 and then walk up to the dying elephant and slit its neck.

You wanna ride an elephant while firing a grenade launcher and then jump off, run to a tiny helicopter, and keep firing that grenade launcher into a fortress while your elephant bro rampages inside?

lame 14 y/o style writing complete with "the joker" guesting as villain

unskippable cutscenes

busywork "crafting" in a shooter

15 minutes of gameplay would get you barely past the tutorial section, if that.

You can by and large avoid and even ignore the story in Shadow of Mordor altogether.
