what I've seen so far, eight hours in, is fantastic. the art, atmosphere, writing, and music are all to die for. of course, the game is not 'perfect' -- I have minor UI quibbles (a few more tooltips couldn't hurt, why are all of my spells available to quickspell when I've only learned four or five?, the 'map' isn't exactly a map but a zoom-out feature (I'd prefer a real map that I can make notes on), and man, this thing sure is buggy right now (no doubt the devs will slowly iron it all out) -- BUT the thing is, my little qualms don't even matter; you can just tell how much love went into this game, pure & simple. for a two dev team, it's absolutely beautiful. even the knotty parts of the UI feel endearing after a few hours. fans of baldur's gate will be in absolute heaven, but any rpg fan owes it to their self to check this one out. highly recommended.
