Like Skyrim, finding and installing mods for the game is just as fun as actually playing the game.

Very buggy mess. This should not be in early access at all. If anything it should be in closed alpha still. The 20 different developers in the discord are constantly applying "hotfixes" which break the game even more. Adding to this the community (including the developers) is extremely toxic and no end is in sight. It's hard finding a game because there are so few players and the players I do see are always the same ones. It's not surprising considering what a mess this developer has created. I'm just glad I didn't pay for it.

I don't like it. It's clunky and has very poor framerate despite the horrible cartoon graphics.

This game should be free to play. I might buy for $10. Certainly not worth what they're asking.

Really terrible game. Hit registration is basically non-existent. Early acesss blah blah. Probably going to be shovelware in a few months.

Great game in 2D, however I can't recommend for VR players right now due to the relentless bugs and abysmal performance. I had to turn the texture resolution to 1/4th of normal in order to even get 30 frames, when you're supposed to be running at 90.

Bought the game, killed a few people. Banned for stream sniping. I actually had to look up what this was. Total ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥. I don't even watch streams.

Took a long time to get here. When it did I ran the ethernet cable and hooked it up as recommended. Setting it up initially was pretty easy. Actually playing games is where the trouble starts. First of all, if you are expecting to get the same framerate you do on your PC you are sadly mistaken. Playing on the Steam Link will cut your FPS in half. In addition to the unacceptable FPS, more than half the games I tried had issues in some way. I was using a wired xbox 360 controller with Dark Souls 2 for instance and the character just kept running forward and I couldn't play the game. The resolution was also very poor and limited options to change it. I could barely read what was being displayed on the screen.

I want to like this game. I really do. It's well-designed and the developers had good intentions when making it.

Pros:
It's fun.
If you like Chivalry you will love this game. It has far more depth than Chivalry ever aspired to.
The game plays pretty well like you would expect for a pre-release version.
Fighting gives you a Dark Souls feeling where every strike, block, dodge, or parry counts and you will be punished for mistakes.
It runs well for having a 3 year old gaming rig.

Cons:
The price. $60 is far too much money for how little content the game has. I understand that being an AAA title, they want to price it as an AAA title but I do not see anyone but the most die hard fans getting $60 worth of gameplay like you would expect with other AAA games like the Far Cry, GTA, and Fallout Series.
Unfortunately this game also suffers from classic Ubisoft poor design choices like lack of dedicated servers as they chose to go with peer-to-peer instead.
The learning curve is pretty steep so it may discourage newcomers. There should be easier classes with less risk/reward while keeping balance.

Conclusion:

Wait for the game to drop in price or until they add considerably more content. Like many others are saying, the game in its current state is just not worth it unless this is your niche.
