I got my copy, and I am now 5 hours in. I'm playing as a noble.
Very good game so far. Squill, you will probably like it but remember this game isn't arcadey like fable 2. You need to parry, block, backstab, evade, and use magic/ranged attacks wisely to survive. Enemies will parry your attacks if you're not careful and open you up for critical hits. There is a stamina meter that once depleted, your blocks become useless and your attacks are slowed. If you are fighting multiple enemies when this happens, you will die very quickly if you're not careful. You can die very quickly even if that doesn't happen. The combat reminds me of Oblivion, except that it doesn't suck. I'm going to write a mini-review, but not for another week or so. If you're up for a challenge, I say go for it.
