The game was definitely overhyped. When I first heard about this game, I was really excited because it sounded to me like it was going to be a lot more open and have a lot of MMO elements to it. Maybe I expected too much, but it seemed to me like it was going to be the next great sci-fi saga, with a ton of open world exploration and a ton of things to do.
Instead, I feel like we got a watered-down version of a Halo/Borderlands hybrid with pretty graphics, fun gameplay, but no storyline (especially head-scratching given Halo's immense popularity) and a lot of linearity.
I'd still get it, and while I'm confident that my opinion of it will improve over time, right now it's just an okay game in my eyes. There's nothing really overly special about it.
