I waited for it on Steam for a whole year, avoided spoilers in every possible way, ran through the previous two parts with a friend a week before the release, and finally beat the game with 2 DLCs on hardcore. I walked so leisurely, trying to collect more and more of everything :)
And how glad I am now, it feels like after reading a good book. The guys did not do a bad job at all, probably the only series of games that can compete with Western new products (after Stalker, of course, lol).
