Yeah, guess we'll have to wait and see.
But I know I won't like any dragons on my healer (read: Morrigan)

Heh, you definitely know how to put bad images in my head.

- Minimap: no zoom
This is a con...wow, really?
- Meele fighters can't "bind" their opponents (like eg. in WoW)
Intant disqualification for me any time you mention WoW and Con in the same sentence.
- No command queques for characters - you have to assign commands for each round
the descriptions are not exact enough
This one I wouldn't mind having..but the battles change so frequently that queues are not effective..you may queue up two commands and by the time the second is there it may not be useful anymore..so not a big problem for me.
- Permament character status (s.a. auras or sickness) not displyed next to the char pic (where we'd expect them)
Well this one kinda makes sense..but is it really a CON to the game? You spend time in the menu after battles anyhow..so it'snot hard to check what ailments you have.
- Inventory: can't simply move items from one char to another (eg. drag + drop the item onto the char-portrait)
Why would you need to do this..they all share the same inventory?
- Strategy: the AI is - in the later game - useless (must asign commands manually to each char)
Hrm..interesting one...but sounds like another "game's too hard for me" comment..
- Codex/journal: no graphical aids, too much text
This one is ridiculous.
Overall:
- simple and blurry environment textures
That one sucks...there wasa thread about this awhile back..how the textures looked to have been dropped in quality quite a bit.. shame but hardly game breaking..
- many NPCs "don't move" (sit there as if made from stone)
Most RPG's are this way..
- the blood effects get boring with time (and you can't turn them off)
Nothing new here...I don't mind the blood. You can tone it down.
So in all those I count maybe about 2.5 worth of legitimate cons. (In my Opinion)
Can't wait to play!

This is Nowgamer's PC review (as opposed to the 360 one already posted). It's by a different reviewer:
Final Verdict
This is a masterpiece of a roleplaying game that thoroughly deserves to rub shoulders with Bioware’s archive of classics. 9.4/10 He also calls it the best fantasy RPG since Baldur's Gate.
