Is this game actually any good? I've only ever seen the combat, which looks terrible

No matter how many times I try, I can't get into this game.

I loved Witcher 1 and 2, also a big fan of the Gothic games, also liked New Vegas DA:O and Oblivion.

This game just has this blandness to it.

Though I've "only" gotten like 25-30 hours into it.
