Those reviews were written almost two years ago, when the game was new. There are certain things that are not to my liking, but a lot of people play it and love it, so there is certainly something there.

I looked anyway to see about buying it and pretty much backed off immediately. Amazon has it for $5 and other are offering a digital dl for $22 which put the notion in my head that it must not be all Ubi makes it out to be if commercial retailers are dumping it.
Retailers are dumping it because it's been taking up shelf space for nearly two years and they know they aren't going to get full price for it. The digital part is useless information because it doesn't take up space they need for something else. The higher price should tell you that.

So what's the truth. Does 5 still have bugs and playability problems or have they all been worked out by now?
A couple of people who hate it have answered you. You'll get a far different answer from the people who love it.

That is also true of SH3 and SH4, and the truth is that none of them are completed yet, and show no signs of being so in the near future. There are still many flaws in all of them.
