I've been playing it for a few days now, and am pretty much hooked. I play an elf fighter, which has some interesting effects on the interactions with NPC's (racism for example). Very well done.
The game looks great. The camera and controls take some getting used to, but it works. The story is very interesting, with plenty of twists and turns.
The combat is challenging. If you just barge in, you'll probably get your ass kicked a lot (I know I did). If you plan ahead and use your special moves (and the pause key) at the right moment, it's much easier. I like how the fighter, rogue and mage all have their own strengths and weaknesses. You need all three to get the most out of the game: a thief to sneak, backstab, open locks and disarm (and set!) traps, a mage to strike from a distance, and a fighter for hand-to-hand fighting.
