Okay so being an enormous BG / Planescape Torment fan, I was super excited for DA:O. Sadly, my very old PC at the time was never going to be able to handle it, so I purchased the PS3 version. I was pretty disappointed by the lack of the tactical camera and the severe frame rate issues, so I didn't play it. I got the PC version and tried to run it, and could scrape through on the lowest settings, barely.

That being said, it was a completely different game on the PC. I felt at home again, like this really was the spiritual successor I'd been waiting so long for. After playing half of the game in slow motion, I bought a new PC and got to experience the game in full, and I'd have to say it's been one of the best gaming experiences in many years.

I do have some reservations about the direction DA2 is taking. I don't want to talk about those too much here (since I am a BG fan you can probably guess what they are), but I am very concerned that there has been no PC gameplay footage released yet. 

Bioware, I want to pre-order your game, I want to give you money, but I am holding back because I have not seen the PC version yet. I don't know if it's going to control better on the consoles or on the PC (as this one seems to be more console focused). 

So, can you please, PLEASE release some PC gameplay footage asap. I think the main thing that will influence my decision, are:
  • Interface as well as Journal/Codex navigation
  • Inventory
  • Combat (how micromanagement of party members works)
  • The new tactical camera
The last point is a huge deal for me, and I'm sure a lot of your core PC gamers. We need to see the new camera, and we need to see it before we purchase the game. I, like a lot of people, want the signature edition, but I really want to know if this game is going to play better on the PS3 or PC before I place the order. 

Thanks!
