Okay this is so LAME. I have no save and I am utterly screwed unless a patch fixes this, but based on past performance it'll be a 'restart act 2 to install fixes' job. I just haven't got the time to replay from the start.

Frankly Larian and their QA team should be ashamed of themselves for such a problem. It's just pathetic the way the games industry works now....ship an unplayable pile of junk and maybe patch it later.

I think it's time to see what returns policy my retailer has.
