I am almost to level 7 and my thoughts so far.
Story:
Not as good as S:CotM, as I said I am midway through the game and the main story line is not interesting me and in fact losing interest. See Dungeons below.
Dungeons:
Much better dungeons then S:CotM in fact this is what is holding my interest and keeping me playing.
Encounters:
Some of the random encounters are way out of my level range so far and I need some of the stuff one of them provided but decided to reload my game as it was so above my level it was almost an instant party wipe on turn 1. It was 3 winter wolves and 3 wolves and my party was down spell slots and HP to start.
Edit:
I would like to start with some of the negatives and then move to the positives I felt during the game.
Overall Story:
The overall story arc with the factious I found unlikable and at times confusing. At one point at a fort I saw a banner and ti was clickable so I clicked it a couple of times to see if it opened a secret door and chest and noting happened. But upon going back to the main city now one of the factions declared me an enemy and I had to fight them. IMHO this should have been explained better before I clicked on the banner.
40-50/100
Stealth:
I am not a fan of steal stuff, I do understand the importance of braking up various things to do during a story besides combat, but here I just di not like them.
35-45/100
Overland Maps:
I found most of the overland maps were done well and for the most part seemed believable in real life and or believable if magic existed and the events that happened in the setting were real. But there was 1 part of one large map that I felt was too video gamey.
85/100
Indoor Maps:
These I found to be some of the best and most interesting, specially compared to S:CotM. I have not found one that was bad or part of one like I did the overland map.
90/100
Random Encounters:
Two of these I had real problem with and had to go back a reload from a save to get a new encounter as they simply overwhelmed my group.
Also not every encounter has to be at your level and IMHO quite a few of them should be below you level after a specific point in the game.
70/100
Crafting Recipes:
I would have liked more recipes at the start of the game as well as some more ingredients, I have been waiting for one ingredient sine the start of the game and I would love to have some more long sword recipes to buy to give to my paladin. It is starting to get a bit frustrating.
Note: I like playing with the ability to make stuff and use stuff and not having to constantly search for things to make stuff or the recipe to craft things.
Note 2: I have also found that I generally try and wait a bit to see if I am going to get something and my PC's are having issues so I decide to craft an item and then I either get one or I get a better recipe and my crafting was wasted.
60/100
Edit 2:
Dice Rolling:
I just had a game tonight that the enemies rolled over 35 nat 20's and my group rolled 4 nat 20's, also during that time my group rolled over 35 nat 1's and often had my prime melee PC's (Rogue and Paladin) roll in the 2-6 range, causing them to miss a whole lot and prolonging the battles.
