Just started the game so these are my initial feelings on the game. My initial time spent with the game was reading through the manual as I updated my drivers for both my sound and video cards. After that, the installation went fine. Requires 4.6gb of space...yikes! After the install, booted up the game, watched the intro video (Patrick Stewart does voicework for the game...very nice!), then dove into the game, only to find...a lengthy character creation system. 1 hour later, I'm in the tutorial. Now I spend 10-20 minutes tweaking settings because this game can be a graphics and system hog, so be prepared to work on this. Especially bothersome is that some aspects of the settings cannot be applied unless the game is restarted. OK, now i'm done with the tutorial level, and am into the game official. Wow, talk about a huge damn game. After trudging around for 2 hours and killing lots of rats and bandits, i finally find the area i was looking for. Time to save and go to bed.
