Just a short impression:

Everything that bugged me about the combat in DOS2 seems to be polished up to a point that I don't even think about it. Kudos.

Character creation is nice and in depth - but the whole "create your dream man/woman" thing was jarring and makes me worried at just how prevalent the romance is going to be. I don't like this. It's a bit cringe.

Lots of optimization issues to be tweaked as EA goes on, especially in flashing shadows/lights.

I am thoroughly enjoying myself so far.
