I was very excited about this game but it seems to be very stealth oriented. What are peoples thoughts here about it?

I liked it at least initially but by the time I finished i was happy to be done with it. I might replay it in a year or so with a lot of patches but it is mostly stealth - which isn't bad but offers less variance than non-stealth games.

I agree with the state of most games in how they seem to be released in very shoddy states, but the other side of that is this: as long as the support is frequent and robust, we might actually get a high quality game, in the end.
