the intro is cute, but the 3rd and 4th options on every screen are hard to read

the graphics are pretty

saying "I laid" instead of "I lay" and having typos in the very first conversation seems a bit unpolished

I wish pausing and unpausing the game wouldn't show up in the log

the constantly turning blue gear on the UI is a little distracting

the deeper UI screens seem a bit cluttered. Do the bright red braces framing the screen titles serve any practical purpose? I also find them a bit distracting.

having a scroll speed setting is a good start, but being able to expand columns of text into larger windows would still be very helpful

"buffs p. dodge chance" - personal? physical? percentual?

putting "quick save" and "options" next to each other as tiny buttons on the UI seems problematic

I click on "quick aptitudes", select "linguisics" and click on a dude -> "Not enough skill points to detect traps."

I just gave multiple orders while paused, and now something "crashed" - I can't move anymore or do anything except cast non-targeted spells.

the icons that denote item slots on your hero are a little too small for my liking. I cannnot tell what that struck-through Omega is supposed to be.

the game needs a key that consistently closes UI windows. Currently the only way I can close a scroll is by clicking either the top right or the top left button; ESC sometimes works and sometimes does not (even for the same screen?!?), while right click and the space bar do nothing

to expand: I have "invocation book" and "invocation words of power" in my inventory. If I open the "words" first, I can close them with ESC (well, indirectly - it brings up the menu, and pressing ESC again closes everything). If I open the book, I cannot close it with ESC (I can't even bring up the menu); if I close it manually, and then open the "words", I can no longer close them with ESC either

lack of a torch holding animation looks a bit silly, but it's no biggie

the mouse pointer lags heavily on load screens

the sound broke (turned into loud static noise) the first time I alt-tabbed in the first outdoor area. I can't reproduce it now.

music valume just randomly plummeted while I was idling on the character screen

two foxes attacked me, and it took a good 30 seconds before combat music started

the two foxes then wiped out the starting camp

Easy way to make xp at the start: lure foxes into the starting camp, they will kill the settlers and guards and you will get xp for their kills.

And people complained how in PoE they could not get the starting camp killed :D
Now they got a game they want.

Actually the strategy is slightly flawed: you do get the xp earned by the foxes and the loot dropped by the settlers, but when a named NPC kills a fox, you seem to be unable to talk to them anymore, only attack.
