Not watching because spoilers. I’m definitely going to play it. I’m worried it is not going to meet expectations but I have heard from people who have early access and they say it’s fine. I didn’t want them to elaborate.
Keep in mind most game releases piss people off, especially in popular franchises. I mean, there are people who hated Skyrim and that’s unfathomable to me.
So I take these reviews with a huge grain of salt right now.
Ask me again on Saturday how it’s going.
Gotta say I don’t like the art direction though. Blech. And I was a Solavellan so I’m already pissed off by what I gleaned from the preview trailer.
I’m trying to remain optimistic but I feel those who are undecided should wait for reviews after the full release.
Edit: it’s not going well. I’m hoping it gets better.
For what it’s worth, even the bad reviews agree that it’s bug-free and feature-complete at launch. It also seems to be at least competent as an action RPG, although not doing anything new with the genre. Where opinions wildly diverge is whether it’s a good Bioware and more specifically Dragon Age game.

From what I heard, the writing isn’t as good as previous games, notably Origins. Very light-hearted in general.
There is a very clear spoiler section in the review, easy to skip. It’s not looking too good so far though sadly.
