Apart from characters and dialogs, worst thing so far is the performance. Especially after moving between worlds, FPS starts tanking and doesn't recover until the game is restarted.
weird i don't have that problem. performance is stellar on 4070s ti
Yeah, my 2080 is getting old. I'm hitting the vram limit pretty quickly. Doesn't help that I'm playing with all graphics cranked to max. But as rebooting the game helps fps (until I move to another world), there is room for optimization.
There must have been a door there in the wall, when I came in.
Truly gone fishing.
The more opened maps are designed quite well imo, and with that comes what's worth even more noticing is that exploration is exceptionally good, best part of the game.

I never played the game but from my experience the only different you'll notice between ultra & high is tanking framerates, visually, they're pretty similar.
Is there a bigger difference in classes later in the game? I started with a mage, but didn't like how he played. So I restarted as a fighter, and there wasn't much of a difference. It seems everyone has a ranged option, everyone can do close up, dashes, parries, just in a different flavour.
I usually play casters in rpgs as they offer more strategic approach to battles, but this one is more of an action rpgs. I'd still go with mage, if it offered more depth later.

If DA2 or Inquisition is anything to go by then no, they will all feel the same. Shit combat system.
I can never be free, because the shackles I wear can't be touched or be seen.

Inquisition had you transition to advanced class so i cant say that was very simple. Was like the first game i played with high risk and reward style as i took damage from attacking.

I'm level 27ish on my mage, who I specialized as a Mournwatcher (Necromancer without summons basically), and all I really got was a different Ultimate and 2 new spells. Combat feels exactly the same as it did hour one.
Being limited to just 3 skills (and 2 companion skills due to global cooldown) really fucking gimps the feel of the combat. Don't even get me started on the generic ass equipment stats and "enchantments".
Of the three prior titles, I'd say this one has the worst combat to date. Sure it's fast and flashy, but it plays like shit and leaves little (basically no) room for anything to feel different from any other thing.

BTW, can you even tell the troon to piss off? Read that either you can't (dunno if it's just the troon) or that if you do there are then areas that are locked because you didn't accept that companion to join your party.

I asked and apparently you cannot perma remove companions from your party. You get to choose who goes with you on a mission, and some missions require some companions.
That being said I didn't waste the 77GB fitgirl repackshit space/time to find out.
You see that cretin everywhere and yes, it's a disgusting freak. But how much screentime does that monster take if you go for minimal? Is it like the bull for inquisition?
The funny part is, for all the memes it generated, suddenly even a byproduct of the Biodecline like Inquisition doesn't seem too insulting in comparison. Although the writing suffered from formulaic tropes and cringey moments, the Iron Bull himself for instance was a thorough character with a distinct and witty sense of humour that never ventured into Marvel-ian sewage. You still pressed awesome buttons while tackling dull quests, but at least the dialogues allowed for some Renegade-isms and the whole thing didn't feel like My First 50 Shades of Fabulous Purple from Deever City.

Having just completed the first act, the game (so far) is far from garbage. Apart from the writing/dialogs, it's actually pretty good.
Writing/dialogue is one major reason for me to play a game like this, so I'm not going to waste any time. Besides, I still haven't really started BG3 for some reason (The reason being Satisfactory eating up all my gaming time.).
Good on you, if you enjoy the game. Cheers!

Absolutely, but as I don't really care too much for the world, most of the story related dialogs are good enough (and not that different than the writing in bg3, tbf). Once you dive a bit deeper, with romance and the likes, the cringe sets in quickly, but those are optional anyway.
Exploration is indeed the best part. While the level design is confusing as fuck, you always get rewarded with something (albeit small) when going off the path or jumping on rooftops.
I'm also playing on the 2nd easiest level (between easiest and medium) as I heard prior about spongy enemies and combat getting boring quickly. This seems to help with some of the pacing.

I wasn't endorsing it either. More like showing the hypocrisy about the writing in this, when BG3 ain't much better and is considered the best rpg since jesus.
