I've put a few hours in and I'm really happy with it. The art style is great, the writing is really, the aesthetic in general scream Shadowrun, the soundtrack is great for a cyberpunk setting and from what I gather the editor is ridiculously powerful and there's already an alpha build out for a SNES Shadowrun remake. One of the other things I noticed early on though is that there is a refreshing number of speaking characters that are Persons of Color.
The downsides are that it's apparently not terribly long (about 12 hours or so) and it's pretty linear. I don't really consider the linearity a problem, especially with such good modding tools available, but I can understand the concern. The character creation allows for a hell of a lot of build options though and I suspect I'll be playing through at least a couple of times while waiting for the Berlin expansion and mods.
Edit: Also forgot to mention, there's no VA (not a downside as far as I'm concerned) and there is no manual saving. The game instead auto saves every time you change maps. This isn't a big deal to me, but it is an odd thing to not include.

wait, wasnt this the big multiplayer first or 3rd person shooter from when xbox live dominated online gaming?
