Edit on 5/9/14
I had this per-ordered so I made the investment. About 3 hours in - voice acting is terrible, story is OK, combat is a lot of fun. Overall it's better than 4/10 which is what gamespot gave this game, I'd say closer to a 6.5 / 10. The combat and the crafting help. Visuals are pretty good in my opinion and the game has a decent amount of pc specific visual adjustments. The lighting in the game is good but some of the foliage looks weak. A good game to get just not at full price. $15-$20 is what I would have paid for. Below are some in-game screenshots I took via Steam
Attack of the giant lens flare!

Anyone else here looking forward to this game? It's stayed under the radar I think since I don't see gaming sites bombarded with ads for this game - which could be a good thing!
What I like so far:
Visuals / gameplay - http://www.boundbyflame.com/en/game.html#game_gameplay
Combat looks great - https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=-9YkG5HeCCg
Interesting crafting system - http://spiders-devblog.tumblr.com/
What I'm worried about:
The developer is mostly unknown. Their only other rpg was "Of Orcs and Men". Also, I hope that this won't be just a sloppy console port for the PC. The visuals look great from the videos so far, but I hope that the PC version offers advanced graphical functionality.
Anyone else looking forward to next month's release?
