Seems like it's going to be a fine game, regardless of what the naysayers say.
My preorder remains.

I've been playing it for a couple weeks (US Copy).

Love it, given up on sleep.

Wont say to much about it but it kicks morrowind in every way (apart from not being in 1600x1200).

And as of today, its on sale in Australia...so hit your closest GW now =)

[Hit And Rum]

going to buy it very soon!!

[Springer]

i got it warez or whatever, but yeah, good game

[Hit And Rum]

Thoughts on it so far?

[Hit And Rum]

Just bought it. Now I have just got to finish work to go play it!!

I gave it to my brother as a birthday present and he loved it. It's a bit linear apparently, but a load of fun. Sounds to me like one you'd trade in pretty quick though...

Spot on, its fun, but a little too linear... im not a big RPG person as it is tho

Bought and it played it last night. Not bad at all. A fair bit of loading but all in all quite good.

Ummmm How have you played it for a couple of weeks, I found it to be extremely simple and finished it in 10 hours.

I think that it could have been a great game, however it just seems way too linear.

Saying that though im still going to play through it again but this time, im killing every single person that i meet.

Well I guess the fact that I would hang around in a town for a few hours seeing how many women would fall in flove with me.

Thats what i thought :)

Don't get me wrong, I thought that it was a good game, just with a bit more effort, that it could have been a great game.

I've been playing since I got it last Monday, in between bouts of work, its a good game, story is a little weak but the actual game mechanics are good. To truley get alot out of this game you have to ignore the story and go off and do your own thing i think, i've finished it, but i've started a new character where im just going to ignore the story quests totally and just wander off and do as i please.

[PhilDude]

its called an 'rpg'

pah!

every choice there is a consequence

pah!

definitely did not live up to the hype it was given

its enjoyable for the first few hours, then you just want to finish it as quickly as possible

great graphics plus great ideas behind the game, just not implemented properly :(

[BlueBoy]

Well I finished it today.

Like PhilDude says, there's some great ideas there, it's just that the game seems half finished. There's stacks of stuff that is alluded to but isn't really gone into.

I'm still glad I bought it and played it though.

[saige]

I thought it was a great game since I played it non stop since I got it. Finished it in about 4 or 5 days, but then I roamed and did pretty much everything I could while being a good character. I think I'll go through it again as evil.

I would recommend it to anyone who likes RPG's light.
