  I've hit lv 13 with one character and I'm enjoying it quite a bit. Playing on PS3 (to group with friends) and using the controller is really intuitive. I'd probably still use one on PC. I think I'm the exact demo they were shooting for, big fan of the source material, but only casual MMO experience. The costume edit at the beginning might seem somewhat limited, but you do collect new gear along the way. It also implements a feature I've wanted in an RPG since forever, which is the ability upgrade your gear stats but keep the look from your old gear if you want.
  
  My only grips are small. A more detailed tutorial or at least a better guide would be nice especially for the more casual audience they seem to be shooting for. And the graphics on the PS3 version are kinda ass.
  
  Bottom line, plays like an action game, button combos and all. Might not be deep enough for hardcore MMOers. And if you get the server names you're the target demographic.
