Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
Also it would be great if the developers added a 1st person view option, and slowly improved the textures for the landscape (after the game is better optimized), as this game is mostly about wandering the desert, so having the landscape look as good as possible would make the game much more enjoyable.

Story and characters
Players who bring up Story and characters mostly praise it.
There are lots of locations to explore, "clear" (by killing all the enemies) and capture in this game; 3 game modes to enjoy, several MMORPG-like quests to complete, and there are even mounts!

Optimization
Players who bring up Optimization mostly praise it.
The first thing that needs to be fixed is the performance, this game really needs to be optimized, it is still somewhat playable, but if you buy it now, be prepared for lag spikes and a lower than expected fps.

Multiplayer
Players who bring up Multiplayer mostly praise it.
Great for an early access indie game and I totally Reccommend getting it now as by the time this game is finished with multiplayer in it the price will be sure to rise.
