Positives: Well produced game with solid mechanics Excellent art and interesting world. Amount of content and quality of design is extremely impressive. Negatives: Game feels like work rather than play. Set up time is long (even with organizers). Fiddly and difficult. Wanted to quit half-way through each play. I may be in the minority, but I gave the game a fair chance and I've concluded that I don't enjoy playing it and will sell it soon. Update: I'm going to try Jaws of the Lion and see if I like it better. I think I will without the overwhelming feeling of set-up and upkeep.

Would be much higher, but it is awfully fiddly with tons of pieces, status conditions, stats, and more to keep track of. Setup time is long and arduous and it can be very difficult, especially certain combinations of starting characters.

Imagine if D&D's dungeon crawling and role-playing were swapped in quality. You won't be haggling for a horse or purchasing rations, but the gameplay is so good! Insane amounts of content, interactions that make each playthrough unique. An absurd value for money.
