I plan on picking this game up. To me it looks like Oblivion +1. No more over encumbrance(sp) since you can now combine items to make better and stronger items. I think the game will be great, and like others have said, its the beta version that was buggy.. hell how are you hearing a game is buggy before its even released? Game Sites and reviews? because all the ones I have saw have been things of earlier builds, nothing from the final game.
