When I close my eyes and think of DOS2...

I don't see the beautiful environments,
I don't see the awesome special effects,
I don't see the well crafted animations...

I see the inventory and vendor screens. They are PERMANENTLY ETCHED INTO MY BRAIN because I had to stare at them for hours and hours and hours.

DOS2 forced you to upgrade every item on every companion every level to remain competitive. I LOVED the game, but HATED the itemization.

I could care less how they do itemization in BGIII as long as they don't do it like DOS2.
