Some more flaw at character creation. Classless character creation ? Steam advertising is utterly false. This is definitely a class system, at character creation at least. Rogue, wizard, knight...
I should be able to build my character as I "want" in a classless system. Can't choose skills so far.
You can change all the attributes, Abilities and Talents you start with. Yes, I would like to be able to select my starting skills as well, but it is Alpha.
I don't know, I played Skyrim a long time ago. "Use to improve" could be part of the answer in giving some consistancy to the skills system.
Hmmm... Since the game world is a certain size and doesn't respawn like the Elder Scrolls games there would be problems with some of the abilities, though, like Lockpicking, Leadership, other social skills. Some skills would shoot up like a rocket, but for others you could run out of ways to advance certain skills.
