I love reading from so many different posters how beautiful and engrossing the game is apart from the controls.
It makes me feel justified in not starting the game yet.
Though the current sale over at Steam is making it hard to just spend my time in the character creator...
Ha.
I know, what you mean. I'm from europe and had to wait for the 20. of November, so I decided to use a VPN tool to play it from the 18. on.
These two days I only spent in the character creator, trying out every race and gender. I love character creators. I easily can spend hours playing around with the customisation.
While I can understand all the critizism about the awkward controls, my personal concern is more from the immersive pov. I don't like the immersion breaking bugs in this game just like no blanting between your companions (fortunately I don't have this bug), the gender problem and especially the changing voice after... you may know after what. I know there's a kind of a workaround with this particular problem, but for me it's very unsatisfying, because I want to experience the whole world like I played it in the first two episodes. That said it's also pretty sad to see that some preferences from the keep are not identified correctly.
But the most important thing was and still is: When can we expect a patch!? Hellohoo Bioware, can you hear us??
