I get the feeling that this game will be entirely linear, nothing like Oblivion. As long as its a good game I don't mind, but I'd rather have quests and such in a non-linear world than a linear fantasy FPS.

The graphics look great, with character models even better than Oblivion.

This is going to blow away oblivion. This game has kinetic physics that have a fierce visceral feel unlike oblivions dead rag doll droll physics. Fights were just boring...Can not wait to get Dark Messiah of M&M.

I can't wait to play this game. It's one of the nicest surprises for me this E3. Kinda looks like the sneaking and fighting parts of Oblivion, but it seems to expand it and have more options. I'm not a fan of the HOMM series, but I do look forward to this.

goddamn this is looking good....that video from a few weeks back just cemented this as a must buy for me....one odd thing I've noticed is a lack of foliage/trees/grass/etc. in the screenies...this will probably be where Oblivion remains the graphical superior...it still looks freakin' amazing tho, & will likely run better than the big O :)
if they can make this even remotely as vast/involving as MM6 & 7, then this will be a classic indeed...

This is a great example of an engine people started writing off as "old looking" when the simple fact is the quality of the art assets makes all the difference in the world.

Awesome art and fantastic use of the Source engine. I'm so hyped for this game. The E3 demo video rocked.
