Has anyone actually played it? If so, what were your experiences of it? I've seen the preview, and don't feel like I can make a decision on the game based on that alone.

Rules-wise it's fairly identical to other AGE System games like Dragon Age, and though I think I prefer the True20 version kinda a little bit from a rules perspective, the system does work pretty damn well for presenting its concepts in a playable manner. From a lore perspective however it's really good overall and has a lot of cool improvements going on. It's expanded on some of the elements that it didn't include terribly prominently in its previous incarnation, such as adding lore support for transgender people, and it's got a few decent campaign hooks going on.

I'd check it out if you liked the original.

Thanks for the tip.

From what I've been reading, it seems like not many people have played it so far, but those that have either liked it or are enthusiastic about it.
