The main things I want to know are indeed the full list of playable races/subraces/classes/subclasses/backgrounds so I can while away the time in the run-up to release coming up with the custom character concepts I'd like to play. I'd also want to know origin and non-origin companions and their races/classes/backgrounds, mainly so I didn't duplicate with my custom characters (I still recall that the first character I rolled for patch 1, knowing practically nothing, was a half-elven trickery cleric).
Beyond that, I'd most want to know whether the features or changes I really want to see in the game but haven't been confirmed yet will be present. Taking a pessimistic view, that's so if they're not I can get over my disappointment well in advance of the game releasing and refocus on all the stuff I know I'll still enjoy about it, or in the best case scenario so that I can be even more stoked for the full release than I already am!
So, for me, my next five top priority questions would probably be:
- Have the stealth and ambush mechanics been reworked to be more satisfying and challenging to play?
- Has enemy AI been improved to be more distinctive, varied and effective?
- Will we be able to have party conversations, eg to hand over to other party members in the course of a discussion, and will our party (either human or AI) be able to be more vocal about decisions and events?
- Have you made any changes to enable us to better integrate our custom characters into the lore and history of the world, and the stories told in the game?
- Will our custom player characters be fully voiced?
I've probably forgotten something that I think is even more important than some of them, though!
