    The entire world has been sick of them for decades, but that doesn't seem to phase writers. I think they are trying to use it as a blank canvas of sorts, populating the "journey" with interesting things, too bad it doesn't seem to work.

    Does Roxor have to review everything? He's (supposed to be) working on ELEX, so feel free to volunteer.

    Still no mention of the actual issues in those patch notes. I guess it's a lost cause.

    Apart from that one time I installed it out of morbid curiosity and played like 10 minutes, no, I'm waiting for them to fix it, but I see they won't. Soooo, I'll probably get around to it after I complete every game that I've been planning to play lately. Spellforce 3 is also coming out in like 2 days, so I'll check that as well.

    Things I don't get why are not in the game:
    -day/night cycle;
    -NPCs that have activities in the day and then go to sleep in the night;
    -A world map and the ability to go where you want;
    -bigger dialogue fonts;
    -the game tries to be funny but I never laughed once;
    - faster speed for that 90% percent of the game that is combat.

    I have seen in different videos people calling it the best CRPG ever made.

    Well it is still an indie game after all, they couldn't even afford to fund it themselves or get a publisher so it was crowdfunded again. Maybe next time they can grow the features a bit.

    Well, "indie" as in the most literal sense of independent, it's by no means a low-budget title.

    Why retadred? Even Baldurs Gate and stuff had day/night cycles and the streets would empty at night. And a world map that gave a bit of freedom to where you went. DoS could use that. The other stuff seems pointless though. And like it or not but this series is never going to grow if they keep having to Kickstart it. But a million sales isn't bad, so maybe next time a publisher can take it on. Bigger budget = more features, bigger game, bigger advertising budget and more sales.

    Yea but they can't do everything, especially while developing their own engine at the same time. They are working with a similar budget to what Baldurs Gate had almost 20 years ago, yet trying to do more.

    I believe the decision to crowdfund D:OS2 was for two main reasons: to incorporate player feedback about the new mechanics and design changes in D:OS2 and to help promote the game, as many sequels to crowdfunded games that weren't crowdfunded have sunk.
