I haven't done all that much, but so far I'm happy. The game's good, and I like the new reaction system. I honestly just wish ALL reactions were Ask reactions, like Sneak Attack and some Bard reactions and such.
I’m glad you’re enjoying your new game. I agree with you on reactions. I’m hoping that Larian have just been testing the water and that, now the response to their new approach has been broadly positive, they’ll apply it more consistently for all other reactions and reaction-like effects.
Like @neprostoman I’ve recently completed my first patch playthrough and had a lot of fun. Paladin combat was broadly enjoyable, though as a melee character with a bunch of concentration effects I did suffer a lot from the issues being noted in another active thread that make it hard or impossible to maintain concentration. And I sort of ruined the roleplay element for myself because I was interested in playing an Oathbreaker but as a meaningful choice that had some moral justification rather than just by killing neutrals or criminality, but because oath adherence doesn’t feel fully implemented yet I just ended up playing a very unpaladin-y paladin. I bet it’s more fun if you either stick to the paladin archetype or just go all in on the evil for Oathbreaker.
Anyway, I hope you enjoy the rest of your run, and look forward to hearing your thoughts once you’ve completed it!
