I also fully support your post.
I played DOS and am an avid fan of BG since I was a child.
This game is going to nail it, but these are the points they need to work on.
I was especially annoyed by all the barrels. It breaks immersion in some parts. Like when I was in the hidden cave under the Druid Grove. There were oil barrels, where I was like... here?
Also, looting every chest. Do it like in the BG times. Not everything could be opened. And sometimes you had an empty chest, but mostly a chest with something in it.
I will also post my feedback in a separate entry.
Thanks a lot again for this post. You summed up so nicely what my impressions were.
