It plays like Oblivion, but the combat is more satisying, the story is much better (subjective), and the map is smaller (though still decent size IMO). It won't give you the freedom of the older TES games, but then again, neither have the last couple of TES games.
Did they update the game enough to make the last third any good? From what I heard this one was heavily front loaded and got worse the further you progressed including bugs, voice acting dropping off.

It's still "front loaded" with regards to content, but the bugs/issues are more or less handled.
It has a similar feel to Oblivion, but darker. Map isn't as big and the world isn't as rich, but it's still fun.
Yep
So far I enjoyed the dungeons the most: Non-linear, hidden secrets and shortcuts, boss-fights, npcs to interact, etc.
There is a demo available if you want to check it out.
They literally said they played the demo.
Yah true, but they also said it was a year ago. If you'd play the demo now it would probably give you quite a good idea on how the game is.
The game came out almost a year ago. How many demos did they have? You imagine it would be that much different?
