So, preorders aside, what's the TTLG consensus on this game? Are people planning on purchasing day one? Doesn't seem like there's a ton of hype, but I'm personally pretty excited for it. I plan on playing as Corvo and trying the "no powers" route on my first playthrough.

It seems like a decent game. I'm sure those that liked the first are in for an even better one this time around. That said, I'm waiting for the bargain bin.

Just picked it up at GMG and already received my code. Waiting for the preload now.
I'm probably going to do a clean Corvo playthrough the first time (no powers other than blink) and then replay as Emily and just go nuts.

I was planning to wait for reviews, but now I'm even more cautious with the "no review copies" thing.

I'm fairly confident it will be good. Bethesda needs a home run to justify their day 1 review policy.

It's not just the quality of the game, but any potential nasty surprises, such as an always online requirement or microtransactions.

Man, if D2 has microtransactions, I will not be pleased. But it still won't stop me from playing the game.

Just grabbed it off GreenmanGaming, and am now preloading it on Steam.
I AM STOKED!
edit: According to Steam, the game unlocks in 5 hours. Holy poop. I wasn't expecting to play it until the early hours of the 11th at the earliest.
