So I fired it up today and have been able to play the beginning mission on what seems ultra, so we will find out when we get into the game itself and action what kind of FPS I can pull at what setting. Im hoping for at least High to very high with 30+ fps. We will see!

Granted, you shouldn't expect the level of freedom that you get in an Elder Scrolls or Fallout title, but the quasi-open world, as well as the RPG and quasi-sandbox elements are the draw for me.

True, it is basically a one story show with the roaming aspect to it. But all of the little 'side activities' I calll them definately give you plenty to do. Skyrim and Fallout are both great because all of the side missions mostly have some sort of story you get invested in, I love it. Not to mention be whoever you want is kind of appealing.

So I finally found my graphical sweet spot, the optimal settings are a bit optimistic, I can play but I dislike the motion blur and there is quite a bit not stutter but a slowness... thats without combat of any sort. I went to custom and maxed everything except shadows (On Very High) and Post Processing FX (On Low, most reviews or advice said turn it to low since all it does is motion blur, which I hate and adds FXAA which you cannot really tell if it is working, unless you're a stickler)

So far so good Im getting a VERY smooth and reasonable frame rate with very nice graphics.

I've played the game for a week or two and removed it again from my computer. It could never convince me. The crafting system was gamy and illogical and the story didn't make much sense too.
But that's just my opinion, there are thousands of people out there who love the game.
