Sigh, where to start?

Yes, this is what is known as a company throwing a part of it's player base / fanbase under the bus on account of being lazy and is considered extremely poor form. It's why people have been lynching EA and Activision since the dawn of time. Tack on that this is a BG game that is traditionally RTwP and we breach into intellectual dishonesty. area. I understand people now days have little to no standards so these sentiments might be difficult for you but have some tact and dignity please. Games are not a service, they are a product.

Yeah, you don't. And you can't. These kind of claims are so utterly baseless for anyone who really knows what they talk about that you disqualify yourself.

I am sorry you are incompetent at your job.

Thank you, no need for me to buy salt at the supermarket, comes free over the internet laugh

You've got me stocked for years, but your salt has something bitter to it.

You can find plenty of pushback on this forum and others and not just about this feature but many others that deviate from expectations. If Larian cared they could make a survey but this is par for the course since DivOS1.

We quite literally represent something. I don't mean to offend you but is English not your first language?
Also please don't put Larian on a pedestal mate. They are a developer making a product, not delivering a service or doing us a favor. Unlike with physical products they don't have to consider things like recall costs and now is the perfect time to take it into consideration.

A fraction of a fraction of a fraction.

I just hope Larian does a professional (intellectual honesty? seriously? what about taking ourselves less seriously? and, please, note that I'm mixing myself in the ensemble) work and fixes the bugs and issues that have been highlighted (but I think they use other sets of data than the feedbacks we post here. What can i say I'm a bit of a cinic).

No one believes it will change anything. It didn't in DivOS. I don't care about bugfixes because that is bare bone basics and Larian has a history of releasing buggy and unbalanced messes despite this feedback. You can take yourself however you want.

I am here to discuss a video game. Please do not try to rope me into anything other than that. Thank you.
