I wouldn't say it was over-hyped - based on the end result.
The only main thing missing that people (in general on the internet) have noted is that you cannot free-roam the landscape like in Oblivion - it plays like most FPS-type games that you have to use certain exit/entrance points to go from one area of the world to another. To be honest, I don't find it restrictive at all - each chunk of landscape is quite large and there is always multiple things there to do.
I think it is a very good game - if somewhat frustrating to play at times. It's more like Operation Flashpoint than anything else I've played.
Hopefully a demo will be release so that people can try it out.
