Just a note. The 1.03 patch breaks stealing (successful attempts frequently give nothing now), and so I'd recommend avoiding the patch until they fix it.

Unless, of course, you don't play characters that steal.
Thanks for the warning. But a Further warning: Patch 1.03 WILL come with Awakening next Tuesday. A Dev stated that if you install Awakening, it will install 1.03 automatically.

It also "fixed" the damage on daggers (..though perhaps the prior beta patch did.) I preferred .85 times strength as opposed to .5, sure Dexterity becomes more worth while now but it's only .5 as well.
Also, I'm noticing times where the player character isn't sheathing it's weapons after a battle, and moves around rather "stilted" as a result.
As for Stealing.. it is so poorly implemented in this game that I don't think it even matters.

I've given up on stealing rather early on. They claim the long load times have been fixed and I hope it's true as I suffered from that.
EDIT: Meh. It just messed up my DLC content. Had to uninstall, re-install, and do it all over again. Good thing I had a saved games back up.

Never used stealing in any rpg. I had no problems with the loading times either.
Good to see it patched.
