It pisses me off because I was loving the variable strategies I could use and the fact that I wasn't pigeon holed into playing the game one set way. I realize some people enjoy marching they way they are told, the world needs janitors, but I do not. I had a heavy fire mage and a tank that I spent allot of time building a resist set up so my mage could heal him with a fireball while damaging baddies. I was absolutely happy and was working on a poison and ice set to do the same. Then they broke my f'ing entire game and hours of work with one patch that I cannot avoid or reverse.
I am not starting over, I will wait for a mod and warn my friends and coworkers against buying this game as I cannot guarantee next week swords will ot require you tap a simon-says type pattern 'game' before you swing them to "add difficulty and challenge!".
The henchmen thing was absolutely unnecessary and limits the usable pool of henchmen to whoever is in my current level range. I liked being able to hire a level 1 and basically create my own henchmen with the skill points they had after leveling to my level. This is a quality of life thing, but forces me to pick between 6 henchmen instead of 30something.
Most importantly, I did not want these changes in my SINGLE PLAYER game. I could care less how you feel about it as I am sure you could care less how I feel about it. For me it ruined my 30+ hours invested in my current game. So I am going to come here and vent in the hopes someone from Larian notices it and considers another option for those of us that agree. Random chucklenuts opinion, although respected, has no bearing on my current nerdrage.
