Well, having bought this game today and having a good 3-4 solid hours with it, I can say that so far its very well done.
Also proof for the HATERRRRS:
Anyway, it's definitely a must-rent. It loyally recreates the battle system from the original, and has fun mini-games for the actions like pick-pocketing and intimidation. The graphics and sound arent the best, and could definitely be better, but they're decent. Controls are pretty tight, and its an interesting story. So far, definitely worth the money if you have it. I'll have a full review when i beat it though. THIS IS FOR YOU DTOID <3
