With a little over 100+ hrs invested, here are a couple of things that might improve the game:

* Way to hide the UI for taking screenshots. While some modders may be able to do this later, I was a little surprised this feature is not apparently available in the Hot-keys any more.

* Casting spells using avatar portraits. This helps both with buffing spells, as well as some AoE spells when not utilizing Friendly Fire.

* Auto-saves after cut-scenes when entering a known combat. While I generally have a Quick-save made prior to such scenes, having to replay some cut-scenes may become repetitious, and encourages the Player to speed through them; not a likely goal one should practice.

* Titles with names of minor NPC's. I rarely recall such names in RL, let alone in games, but having the title (eg; Terri the Baker, Katherine the Quartermaster) would really be helpful in identifying them, esp in quests.

This last one is mostly a peeve. I loathe hearing profanity in the game, and can avoid it by making informed choices; benching known offenders and avoiding certain NPC's. However, it should never be a part of the PC dialogue as a surprise after a dialogue choice is made, IMO.

One such occurrence spoiled an entire previous quest for me, and could not understand why it was placed there hidden under the Dialogue Wheel. At least in past games, something was written on top to suggest that it may be extant, but to have it lying underneath a choice seems wrong, IMO. If possible, pls avoid such profanity bombs, and insure they are clearly marked.

Also, more modern slang and cursing seems to have entered the series; spoils the rather unique technique already developed in the prior games. Now it sounds like it could be in any dark fantasy game, and not something where words are chosen specifically for the series.

Thanks for allowing feedback, and a listening ear!

Valid concerns every one.

There is a console command PC tilde key and seems designed for xbox 1, but seems to be unsupported.  I've tried many methods to copy screen details and they don't seem to show up anywhere on my system.  Honestly, with all the other bugs I have been characterizing, I should look into this more, as a picture is worth 1000 words.  This is especially the case when a random event happens and you need a quick screenshot or recording to describe the events.  

 

Before I take on the open ended quest instability I need to get this solved.  Duplicating the events that crash the game is not a problem, but the weird behavior is hard to describe.  An early one was tied to the West road and killing the templars.  There is a sequence that I believe marks quest complete in the profile, but not the quest itself and the items to pick up are no longer available - the quest can not be completed and templars will continuously spawn rapidly right on top of you.  I had to uninstall the game after testing that one, as every save is corrupt afterward.

 

Take care
