You never know, they may dabble in different things in the future, or... they may continue to use this system as they have through every other game of this nature. In the end, there are people who do like this type of system, so as I said, it is a matter of taste.
I sure hope they try for a different loot system next time. I frequently run across so many comments criticizing the randomness of the loot system while visiting different links turned up by google-search (while looking for some unrelated Divinity topics). Many claiming that it is D:OS's largest flaw. I've run into very few praising the random loot system outside of here.
