So, I actually found the time to play the beta for a while this weekend. Made it to level 6 and managed to explore some parts of the world. All I can say is it just feels empty. The game is ok, and the play is fairly solid, but it just feels lacking. I'm use to having a distraction at every corner in ES games, but this just feels like I'm running from one quest to the next with no meat. Might be worth a try for some, but I just can't get the monotonous feel of repetition out of my head.
