This is the first patch announcement that hasn’t gotten me hyped… I’m actually kinda dreading it.
Something tells me whatever game systems we get in Patch 9 will be in their final form, no matter our feedback. The UI will keep evolving, and I could see a whole new system (such as Day/Night) being kept as a surprise for release, but if they don’t fix bonus actions now, they’re not getting fixed at all. Same goes for reactions, scrolls, surfaces, going to camp etc…
I suppose that’s why Larian are ready to speak directly to community concerns: They now know what’s going into 1.0.
Im hoping some of this stuff will be fixable with mods
Id like a better ui with drop down spell windows like baldurs gate 1/2
The dialogs to have more choices that cause diffrent reactions
I hope baldurs gate is not destroyed, and we actually get houses to explore taverns, shops, and npcs with quests atm non of the buildings feel like a lived in house they all feel like set peices to me, I dunno how/ why this is to advise how to fix it though.
Dunno if its the verticality of all the houses feeling like a platformer set designed for fun battles, instead of a lived in rpg world
