I can only praise the 3d assets they have. Especially the hair is really well done considering its a iso-game that isn't focused on close ups - as someone working in this field I'm nothing short of impressed.
I like the voiceovers. I like the actors and they do a fine job.
The idea of having as many options to solve/approach things is commendable.
Sadly, everything else I can't praise. We will see how cinematics end up, right now I'm quite certain they are still doing incremental changes to them so they might turn out great. Though story, writing,... I don't judge these before I see the end result, but the companions have only managed to annoy me so far - its the first game of this kind where I'm hoping for a complete custom party.
Larian gameplay to me is one of the worst in the business since DOS2. Individual ideas like surfaces sound fun, but the way they implement them is atrocious for me. Overall its just ideas thrown into a pot with far too little attention to detail how they interact. So yeah, no praise from me for anything gameplay related.
