I'll just mention again how beautiful the scenery is and how horrible the "filling" is.
- giants who respawn like every 30 seconds, so you can't even take a minute to stand around your ancestors' graves?
- random "Freemen" and random "Fairbanks' people" who are fighting each other(the former ones are loosely connected to Cory, the latter ones are kinda-sorta allies) - why should I care?
- sidequests presented as long, long, LONG random notes written by people who inevitably turn out to be dead?
- and the pinnacle of all questation: Kill A Bear! Yay.
Gosh, I miss Baldur's Gate. At least there you had three or four clearly defined mini-quests and then you were on your way.
