Final decision

Post by Ylossakram »

I've thinked about it a lot but i've come to a decision:
I stop playin this game till a patch fixes some of the bugs and gives us items descriptions (or will be available an items list somewhere).
The decision not to give stats and descriptions for id items is bad 'cause not everybody plays pnp d&d and above all what a noob should think ? And anyway i could have standed it if u get the stats after a while u use the item (like in pnp) but this doesn't happen.
You can't rest if not in safe places, some quests are broken and +3 items don't work properly as detect magic spell.
The above is only an example of some of the game probs (go to the Atari forum for a neverending thread ...) not to mention all the probs lotsa ppl is having just to launch the game or to avoid game freeze, corrupted savegames and such.
I'm not whining, the game is good but it has just been released in a rush by Atari ($$$).

I couldn't agree with you more. I expected a better deal out of this. Not trolling, but just trying to provide a fair opinion of the game. For some reason it seems to me like these games are actually getting worse from BG2. NWN was good, but still not as good.

This game I have doubts about. I fail to see a reason behind some of the choices the developers made when they produced the game. It seems like a step back...too bad, I was really looking forward to this. Maybe patches will fix some of the major issues (I hope), as I don't want to give up on it yet.

I don't know, there are bugs, and it is hard to rest, but I am still hacking away at it. I is definately more challenging if anything. I think we may find that some of the bugs may be callenges. I agree, don't give up. If you plug away at it, you will find the answers. I haven't, but I won't give up. Any news on patches?
