The skill tree was awesome, it has to be said. I actually like the lack of currency too, and the way everything revolves around bartering and identify scrolls, the socket system.
The setting itself though, christ, show a bit or originality. Shambling undead, hurrah!
I don't like orbs and scrolls/bits of paper, it's probably a massive neg imo...
About Shambling Undead, I agree plus those damn squid and shell beasts throughout act 1 but act 2 is different
