One big problem with the game industry nowadays is the buyers accept bugs far too readily.
Not to get into whinging, here, but I do agree with this. I think it may have to do with the increasingly younger group of players who are becoming the target market for PC games, and who simply throw away games that don't work well because it's daddy's money, and not theirs.
Just saw the new IGN review of BD. You reminded me of that.
This looks like an industry-wide attitude, rather than a problem specific to Larian. Hell, Encore's Sacred (which I prefer calling Blasphemy) has 6 patches to date, and it was unplayable when it first showed up.
