I have made the decision that if they do not deliver the character import/export, I'm just going to make gods, drop into any open game I can find and have a great time. I'm sick of everyone in here deciding that THEIR way of game playing is what matters. I see more post about people wanting to take away from the experience of others than the ones that can easily be ignored. Don't like higher level people coming into your game, check a box like in DA:O or BG1&2. I do not want to start over every single time I start a game with Friends. I want the game to be more fun for my wife, but being able to carry her through tougher battles. I feel that people will abuse a cheat engine a lot more than they would a character transfer. So yeah, I'm just going to make it my goal to enter games as a god, screw up that game by killing the main player as friendly fire is a thing in this game. So at least I can get friends that hate the idea of not having character transfers into this game by exploiting a worse option. So glad you have your play style. Ima use mine to do my best to ruin your fun.
