Old game, so I didn't make it at first, didn't understand the mechanics and stopped after several hours.
I got it after watching a few videos on Youtube and it became addicting - to the game play and story.
Sadly, there are a few bugs, especially crashing into windows caused by (who cares what's the reason).
Very frustrating, since it suddenly happened after playing 20 hours.
I read about mods and fixes, seemed to complicated for me, and came with a solution that works for me:
Since it's an EA game, I used the EA client to update the game - took a while, to my surprise.
I run the game from the EA client - and it is stable, so it's an easy fix.

Edit: Even after using the EA client (and a Steam install... wierd) the game had a few frustrating crashes.
Even so, and if it's age showing, it is an amazing, captivating game, where your decisions matter all the way to the end, and the way you develop and equip your character has an immense by the end of the game. That being said, I did well on normal (thank you saved games) without any guides, so in retrospect I made a few mistakes, non costly.

10/10

Most fun I had in weeks. Cleverly planned, maybe the cutest platformer ever, with memorable levels (Candy land is amazing).

Despite it's bugs (namely, viewpoint angels going crazzzy, frustrating in battles) and some design flaws (The Rancor can't get past that metal scrap, can't it?) , and despite it's age (it shows) this is a nice game, with a memorable last few battles (Spoiler: with Darth Vader and the emperor). Feels a little hard at a few points, but once you learn the mechanism of the enemy, it becomes fairly easy.

Begun the game and played for a few hours. Fallout premise is nice, but if they don't fix the bugs soon (for example game stuck on "Signing in") , now that there a huge crowd, I'm out.

Started slow, I was almost uninstalling the game, as I felt it is directionless and too open worldly.
After I understood the game mechanism, I was sucked into it.
Despite it being graphically outdated and graphical quirks here and there, it has a nice story, a remarkable physics engine (shot someone in the head and saw the bullet ricochet), the NPCs fight well, you can complete the game with any weapons you like, and on top of that - choices matter.

I'm after 1/3 of the game. I bought it a long long time ago, but never bothered to play it since I had other options and hate platformers.
This game is AMAZING even today, with the graphics design, the story telling of London at that time and of madness, innovative gameplay.
There are (as other mentioned) some video angels problems during battles, but I think they are minor.

...Finished the game. It was an amazing experience. Very hard sometimes, to frustration, to the point of cursing Alice. Sometimes it felt a little too long and sometimes repetitive, but the experience was intense, awesome - feeling I rarely feel after playing hundreds of games.

Perfect weather.Driving a car, leading the race.
Rain. Can't control the car even on low speeds. AI flying by. Am I doing something wrong? Is it Parkinson disease?
Reading the discussions - rain doesn't affect AI.
Uninstall.

Although this game is pretty old, I just got to play it. After seeing hackers and other problems in other games (for example - only vets play the game so it's very hard to kill someone) , I can say this game has an excellent Multi - fast but fair.

Basically, Left 4 Dead in the Warhammer world. Cool.
