The storyline is maybe a bit basic. The world is looking great, so are the graphics. It has a nice combat system.
If you hang to long in an area you'll level out of it and every this is easier. Dungeons scale too you which is pretty nicely done.
The world is full of different kind of quests. Some people say the quests are like MMO quests, but looking at quests from other (and older) games I don't think that much.
The interface is nice and minimalism. Quest tracking is good done. The armor DLC isn't that good (specially when you have blacksmithing) , except for maybe the first few level.
The skills are pretty useful. You can even respec your character so you can redo all the leveling decision.
Tip: Respec your character don't level up and visit all the skill trainers for min-maxing.
Over all a great game if you like a good looking game and with an nice fluid combat system.
