Welcome to rpgcodex.net, a site dedicated to discussing computer based role-playing games in a free and open fashion. We're less strict than other forums, but please refer to the rules.
"This message is awaiting moderator approval": All new users must pass through our moderation queue before they will be able to post normally. Until your account has "passed" your posts will only be visible to yourself (and moderators) until they are approved. Give us a week to get around to approving / deleting / ignoring your mundane opinion on crap before hassling us about it. Once you have passed the moderation period (think of it as a test), you will be able to post normally, just like all the other retards.
I hope respec mod will be updated fast. I don't want to start with same harem second time after just finishing first playtrough so it's either respec or full custom party to try new classes.
I have the game installed on an Samsung NVMe SSD with 3500+ read speed and infinite IOPS, loading time did not change much as compared to ordinary SSD. Pretty sure issue is not related to IO
GOG is downloading a 5.5GB update, so I'm assuming that's the patch.
As for loading times, I haven't played it in a month but back when I was playing it loading times were about 30 seconds for me. I have a Samsung 960 EVO NVMe M2, i7 7700k, and 32GB of RAM.
We are happy to inform you that Version 1.1 is here and ready to be shared with everyone!
We are eternally grateful for your patience. The bugs and other technical issues you've encountered cannot be tolerated, since they ruin immersion and spoil the fun of playing the game. We apologize for any frustration they could have caused you, and we'd like to once more reassure you of our commitment to fix all the remaining problems. We hope you feel the same way we do - we were inspired by true pillars of the CRPG genre, and we believe that with hard work and dedication, this game can become worthy of their lineage.
We would also like to express our heartfelt gratitude to everyone who took part in the Beta test for this version. Your feedback is truly invaluable to us! More than 60 unique issues were fixed thanks to your reports since the beginning of the Beta. And we've also out around 200 other unique suggestions and issues on our task list for the next patch (unfortunately, we can't fix everything in a glimpse, so we prioritize and address major issues first). We'd like to highlight that we carefully read through bug reports threads on Steam and GoG forums, as well as the official forum at owlcatgames.com and the fan-run Discord group, in order to record all the issues described there. We can't answer all the messages personally - sorry for that! - but, just to be clear, we ensure you we care about everything you post, and eventually we will address all reports.
To make bug reporting easier, we've decided to keep the internal bug report form in the release version. There won't be a "Bug Report" button as in Beta, so as not to clutter the interface, but on pressing F11 you will be able to send us your thoughts together with all the required information (screenshot, save file and logs collected automatically).
As soon as Version 1.1 goes live, we'll continue working on Release 1.2, which we expect to deliver around Christmas. Meanwhile, we will keep addressing newly-found critical issues in hotfixes and other updates. Stay tuned - there will be more news about upcoming updates pretty soon!
Sincerely,
Owlcats.

Unfortunately, some bugs still remain: the Int penalty from Strength Mutagen still prevents you from casting Alchemist 'spells' if your Int drops below the required score, which is not how it is supposed to function.
Another one: when you shift into dragon form using Dragonkind, the Frightful Presence effect is still affecting allies, which runs contrary to the effect's description per PnP:
Frightful Presence (Ex): This special quality makes a creature’s very presence unsettling to foes. It takes effect automatically when the creature performs some sort of dramatic action (such as charging, attacking, or snarling). Opponents within range who witness the action may become frightened or shaken.
Actions required to trigger the ability are given in the creature’s descriptive text. The range is usually 30 feet, and the duration is usually 5d6 rounds.
This ability affects only opponents with fewer Hit Dice or levels than the creature has. An affected opponent can resist the effects with a successful Will save (DC 10 + 1/2 frightful creature’s racial HD + frightful creature’s Cha modifier; the exact DC is given in the creature’s descriptive text). An opponent that succeeds on the saving throw is immune to that same creature’s frightful presence for 24 hours. Frightful presence is a mind-affecting fear effect.

Balance-wise I'm more concerned about the multi-sneak attack rays.
At least they claim to have fixed vicious weapons. Hopefully acid gauntlets and such as well.
Grease is in... great. Wonder if there are scrolls available to buy with that spell. Or do I have to pick a level 1 spell now on my level 8 Octavia?

I'm staying well clear of any kind of Ray build that can use Sneak Attacks. Of course, any Wizard has access to this overpowered nonsense, via Sense Vitals... too bad my Wizard build doesn't have any Evocation spells, haha.
While raging, the barbarian gains a +1 natural armor bonus. This bonus increases by +1 for every four levels the barbarian has attained.
Upon being imbibed, the mutagen causes the alchemist to grow bulkier and more bestial, granting him a +2 natural armor bonus and a +4 alchemical bonus to the selected ability score for 10 minutes per alchemist level.
A natural armor bonus improves armor class resulting from a creature’s naturally tough hide. Natural armor bonuses stack with all other bonuses to armor class (even with armor bonuses) except other natural armor bonuses. Some magical effects (such as the barkskin spell) grant an enhancement bonus to the creature’s existing natural armor bonus, which has the effect of increasing the natural armor’s overall bonus to armor class. A natural armor bonus doesn’t apply against touch attacks.

Dialogue branch with Nyrissa, that allowed to gain additional affection with her in the "Abandoned Keep" area during the "Betrayer's Flight" quest, was missing. Resolution: the dialogue branch is now available for the players who have enough affection with Nyrissa.
A good thing then, that getting nuked with "Pitaxian Presents", "Pitax Assassins" & "Songs of Pitax" spawning new DC30 events before the old ones are even resolved is fair game.
