I've just finished it for a second time, and I love it. Feels like it's a return to the snes games, mixed with Game of Thrones and completely new gameplay.

Overall, I really enjoyed it, can't wait for the full game.

The only issue I had with it was that all facial animations are synced to English voice actors. For me, this means that I'm forced to either play in English with proper lipsync, but a (presumably) heavily Koji Fox influenced localization (which I already know is not really my cup of tea), or play in Japanese and just put up with janky cutscenes for the whole game. Kind of lose-lose scenario, but oh well.

Ah, what else has Koji Fox done? The localisation feels a little like the archaic language of 12, but less so. I quite like it.

Though I'm not sure why it's a Marborl and not Marlboro. Also I'm going to assume Syr Tyler and Syr Wade at some point were called Syr Biggs and Syr Wedge.
