Really enjoying the game, but I am getting frustrated at the stability issues. When I first started the game, it took a good 45 minutes before it would decide not to crash on the main menu. Then when in game I got an issue where I could no longer change party members, which required to reload the game to fix it. Then there is the odd CTD, which is all cool and everything except I am a sucker for forgetting to save.
This is all standard for EA releases though, so what else would I expect?
I really like the crafting system, but I wish the different materials gave more variation in what stats it would change. I see many metals having the same stats boost, the only difference would be the colour of the weapon changes. That's cool and all, but it could have been more special if it gave more variance in it all.
I played in hinterlands for about 5 hours, before I realised that I was doing side quests, which is a big positive in that the side quests don't feel out of place with the game. Only problem is, there is so much to do, I skip most of it because I get concerned I will get fed up of the game before concluding the story. That's a fault of myself though, too impatient. So I am trying to complete side quests, but at the same time furthering the story a bit.
I do like it, it's no Origins, but it's a damn fine game all the same.
