My saintly patience has just evaporated after reading all these posts about how versatile the game truly is... dammit! I even re-installed the demo yesterday in desperation for a taste of the real thing, but it was like drinking Diet Coke... nice, but ultimately unsatisfying.
The strong impression I get from the hardcore players (Kiya in particular) is that while the skill system might seem a little strange at first, it is in fact very flexible and will allow me to experiment to my heart's content, and my character's strengths and weaknesses will become more pronounced depending on what I choose.
It also seems to me that it is the gamers who want instant gratification that are getting fed up with BD. I await the chance to find out for myself what all the fuss is about with bated breath... although at this rate I am going to die LONG before I get my copy... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cry.gif" alt="" />. Ah well, c'est la vie.
