I almost started criticizing and complaining in this topic as well, but I figured that it'd be better for my spirit if I were to try to look at the good even if it pales in comparison to the bad.
Besides, there are already other topics to do that in.
At least you are making the attempt. This is an appreciation thread after all. There are a lot of negative threads already, which I don't want to waste the energy on, so I don't contribute to them.
Taken as a whole, what Larian is trying to do here is nothing short of miraculous, especially given the current state of gaming. I am excited for the finished product and the mods that it will inspire. This patch was another fantastic stepping stone to that final release.
I am eternally grateful for the people who work on this game every day, and for this amazing company. Looking forward to more.
