I picked it up and played a little today. There are some really, really bad bugs in this game. Needs a patch asap. Maybe it's a problem with multiplayer but I basically convinced a guard to let us through and my buddy walked into a room, immediately got another encounter and failed it, and then we were all murdered.
Then there was a time when I couldn't even exit the game, the esc key wouldn't work and I had to quit through task manager.
