Well, you sound like you're going to put your decision on whether to buy it or not on this review. Instead, look at gameplay, ask friends IRL and on GameSpot, see some user reviews. I just feel like we shouldn't put so much weight on one review. But if you're not, more power to you.

Totally this, or the fact that maybe the reviewer disliked the game, but since gamer community might be enjoying (s)he might getting some time to pull out something to make people stop rating GS and it's bullcrap reviews.
The only real bad thing about the game is that there isn't a traditional fast travel like in Fallout, but more that you have to place stones in certain places then buy another stone that allows you to teleport to the stone you placed, though most stones have only one use. With no real fast travel it can get annoying going on the same long trail, again and again. Though the game does have pretty good combat and interesting story.
i'm willing to bet its 6.5-7.5. I'm still going to get it though--once the price comes down. It looks like an old school rpg without all the dumbing down yet that reviewers seem to like so much.
when they bundle a game with a "free beta invite" or "early demo access" to another game, that should be enough to let you know the game sucks and their just trying to sell the game any way they can.
I was extraordinarily unhappy with that game. Very disappointed. Horrendous graphics, generic setting, mediocre voice acting, cliche and derivitive story, a ridiculous "fast travel" feature (aka you have to run around every single trail repeatedly unless you want to pay thousands upon thousands of gold to keep buying the stupid stones to place on the ground), and a clunky combat system. The only thing slightly positive about the game was the pawn system, it was interesting.
