Interesting. So far it's really good. It's like Skyrim or Fallout with WoW type graphics and arcade combat....but that is not to say the combat is simple, it's as simple or complex as you want to make it.
A real quality game so far. Worth a look if you haven't heard about it. There's a demo.

Dunno. It might be on the site. I was talking xbox demo but it's out for PC as well. Don't know if there's a demo for that...might be.
Edit- yes it's on Steam. Worth the download.

yup, I am only level 8 so far, not going though the game too fast or anything. But so far I am liking it. (playing a finesse character)

At first you think it's going to be all arcadey and simple but it's not at all. It's pretty damn deep actually.
Combat is fun too, unlike Skyrim where everyone is waving around half cooked pasta.

I thought the demo was awful but to be fair I was extraordinarily pissed when I played it.
Did you ever play Alan Wake? That just got a PC release.

It is not a bad game.
I think the way they flood you with irrelevant quests and the main quest seems to be shallow so far is a flaw but I am still having fun with it.
Everyone keeps comparing the combat to DMC and GoW and saying it is bad, what they should be doing is comparing it to Skyrim and heralding it as a breath of fresh air.

I do like the combat. I think it's funny that creatures stop attacking you when you get into the water. Also that there is no jump takes a little getting used to. Its funny that you can jump from only certain parts of a pier, but not all.
