While I loved the Exalted setting I found that the rules where too complex to run a game involving different types of Exalted characters. From what I've read in your review Scion looks like what I originally expected from Exalted Second Edition.
About the "dynamics" problem I believe it's inherent to the White Wolf system and I still I find that it went better since they dumped the old WoD way of counting successes.
Let's hope Scion: Demigod will flesh out the game.
