I don't like games to change after release. I've built my characters and invested 100+ hours based on the current balance, not a different one. Do not break my game.
They already re-balanced the game severely since the Early Access. They had ample opportunities to change this, this is now final.
Larian's policy is that updates cannot break saved games, so no worries there. However, some changes might not apply without starting a fresh game.
Nothing is perfect, so to say that this is the release version so no more patching for any reason is ridiculous.
