I hadn't caught the fact until today that the PC UI will also be limited to 8 abilities at a time, and I have to admit my enthusiasm has plunged, at least for the moment. I foresee huge amounts of wasted time walking into groups of opponents, seeing what abilities I need, reloading the game, changing them around, and hopefully not having to rinse and repeat. I know there are gamers out there who want a challenge, but I can imagine no logic for the idea that a swordsman knows 12 shots, but can only remember 8 at a time for an entire fight. I'm going to hope this isn't going to work the way it sounds, but it would have been nice if the limits to provide strategic planning challenges were only imposed at harder difficulties or were optional (this is a single player game, after all, what I do has no impact on anyone else). Oh well, I can hope that'll be one of the first things modders manage to work out, otherwise I'll probably spend most of my game time at Skyhold talking to Cullen, lol. Sorry, just feeling blue since I usually have extremely limited time to play, and I hate anything that feels like built in padding to game play time.
