If you like tactical games and don't mind learning a completely new combat system, it's fantastic. I don't play games for their story or graphics, so don't really care about those one way or the other. The combat system in ND is deep, and allows for extremely varied tactical decisions as you chain/link turns and develop a game plan that allows you to survive -- if you don't, the enemy will demolish you because it'll chain/link it's guys and kill anyone you extended to far. The MP, if you can get a game still [not sure] is solid, with a wide variety of team setups and some excellent players... but again, may be dead.
