I'm not done with my review yet, I'm working on something else at the moment, but the review will be published by Thursday at the latest.
It's a really good game, though. It has the depth and personal relationships that KoA really lacked, and while it starts out a bit tough, by level 8 the fights are easy to manage, even if it's 4 or 5 against you. By the first major boss fight, fighting should be a piece of cake. By the time that the enemies level enough to sufficiently be a challenge again, your character build should be pretty solid, and you should have the spells down... The beginning difficulty really does have me doubting that I'll go back to play it on the hardest difficulty, though (the pc version has an even higher difficulty that locks your save when you die, so every time you die you have to start over completely, by the way).
@Chaind Insanity- there was an option to change the font if you don't have an hdtv at the beginning... Doesn't it work?

the game started to get great after the first 2 hours or so when I finally got acquainted with the controls and the smaller intricacies of the game. Having a blast with it now and I'm still only on Act 1.
