I've only watched a playthrough of it and wouldn't ever get it, but if they changed a few things up then it could be a quality game.

Now, I'm mentioning the free to play Spartacus, because although it had a super low budget, it did some things very well. Spartacus was somewhat like Demon's Souls in how your characters fought and despite the massively low budget, there was actually a decent amount of depth within the gameplay.

Ryse on the other, gameplay looked like a very limited Batman Arkham game with QTEs during quick kills that you didn't even have to be accurate when pressing. The graphics were amazing, but the gameplay looks like it will become too monotonous too quickly.  Again, I haven't played it, just my thoughts of watching videos of it.

If the developers created a game that has the graphical quality and budget of Ryse but like Spartacus gave it some Demon's Souls like depth to the game, Microsoft would have a must own title.  Even though it's a budget free to play game. I'd recommend trying out Spartacus Legends. It's got some good qualities to it. Here's a video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5vt6e2b8baM
