So, I'm torn between running through this myself and waiting for my friends to go through this content.
I'm loving it so far. Despite some minor graphical glitches, it's really neat. I really like armour points as HP. I also like how conversation can turn violent really quickly. I also like the non-distinct conversation choices. I don't know if that's final? I seem to remember during KS that it was said to be placeholder.
Some suggestions:
If we could save our characters to import later, that would be great (especially considering how much restarting RPG early access usually requires). I don't necessarily mean mid game, but in Original Sin 1, I found myself creating the same character every time I started up a new multiplayer game. I'd like if we could export our character on creation. I can't tell you how many times I had to restart a game because I missed one little detail.
If we join a multiplayer game, do we have the option to create a new character? I like the other characters, but I know that people are going to want to play their own characters.
Furthermore, portraits. They're cool, but could you not tie the portrait clothing to the class? The big bulky fighter platemail doesn't fit so well with the character concept.
I'm sure I'll think of more, but that's my first hour of the game.
