It is great. Reviews will probably slam it due to the poor combat, graphical bugs stiff animations and all that stuff, but if you can look past that stuff, it's a great game.
It has everything I love about past Piranha Bytes games, detailed world full of exploration, interesting lore and great characters and dialog. It probably won't top Gothic 2 NotR, but what ever will?
Too bad most players and critics will probably just focus on the problems and ignore the gem underneath all that. As long as it sells enough to keep PB making games, I'm happy.
Well if you don't mind older games, give Planescape: Torment a try. it's on GOG.com You could also try the Gothic and Risen games. They have fighting, but the quests are very open ended.(many different solutions, talking, killing, stealing.)
My wifes favorite type of game is RTS, mainly Warcraft III and Age of Empires 2/3. She also played World of Warcraft(and other mmorpgs) for a couple years.(along with me!)
