Highly, HIGHLY overrated, but not bad. The story is a roller-coaster in all the wrong ways; rather than swift twists and turns, it's more highs followed by incredible lows, leading to a consistency that's likely to annoy you if you give it more than the bare amount of attention just after an actually poignant moment.
It doesn't help that the gameplay encourages you to get fights over with quickly rather than have fun with experimentation, as the abilities tying into cooldowns make it feel more like an MMO than anything actually engaging. It's not terrible: it functions well enough and there are WAYS to make it fun, but the ways I found were more in spite of the design than helped by it.
You should really only play it if you're DYING to know if it's all that it's cracked up to be. Otherwise, you could probably get all the best parts from it by watching someone else do it for you.
