probably the best rpg ever, loved both original sin 1 and 2 :)
It is even better because you can play with friends :)

Game is rediculously fun.

I got on today after work and was able to immediately log in and play my toon with my friend with no issues :)

Pros:
1) Amazing animations
2) Farming mobs is actually fun! (hunting log is a great addition and makes it enjoyable to farm mobs with your buddies)
3) Dungeons are neat :)
4) I haven't tried pvp yet, but if it is anything like the pve, I will be happy :)
5) Lots of ways to get xp and level (questing, dungeons, hunting log, etc...)
6) You can tame pretty much anything in the game and have it as a mount or companion :)

Most of the negative reviews are just people's experiences with the immediate launch,
1) Splash screen (this was due to a steam to bless authentication issue)
2) Item duping (They are already working on a fix and mentioned that they will take action against the abusers and take back ingame currency).
3) Server lag on quests and items, they have upgraded their equipment to handle the IO requests to the database
4) FPS, most likely servers were overloaded and with the bugs above, etc... today had very manageable fps 80-130 (especially for a early access MMO with a rediculous amount of players online in the same locations)
5) Lack of endgame content, it is early access, they have redesigned core functionality in the game which most likely broke the endgame content or made it unplayable/unenjoyable. It makes sense if they are trying to optimize, to make the content enjoyable and solid.
5.1) People complaining: Lack of content, most people are just speeding through the content spamming dungeons to level to max in a single day. Then they start complaining that there is nothing to do, meanwhile there are plenty of fun quests, pvp, taming, hunt logs, gathering and other activities that if done while leveling and at max level would immerse a player and make them enjoy the game more.


TLDR: The game is fun, 90% of the angry comments are problems that have or will be fixed, Neowiz is quickly addressing the problems, if they keep up the efforts many more people will be playing this game in the future :)

I personally will play this game and possibly ESO summerset until Warcraft BFA comes out, and will probably hop back on this to check on it whenever there is a dry spell on Warcraft :)

@Neowiz, keep up the good work in addressing problems :)

Pros:
- Weapons are fun to use
- Takedowns are fun
- Co-op RPG (not many out there)
- Silly NPC fights are fun :)

Cons:
- The silly fights are fun, but if you just want to relax for a minute after fighting what seems to be a clown car full of peggies, well guess what, 3 more clown cars got off of lunch break (along with their: mom, planes, helicopters, dogs, guys made of steel).
- Can't play with Dual SLI (game crashes on map)
- Co-op is full of disconnections and bugs
- Co-op doesn't let you unlock weapons and a good chunk of challenges cannot be completed with a friend
- Forced cutscenes
- Story is lacking
- No control over anything
- Only bad endings.
- Co-op on last mission forces your buddy to drive the worlds slowest RV and if main characters truck goes to far ahead, it kills you both with no warning.
