Love this game but...
Title says it all. I love this game, but there are a few things that make me want to through my dam computer out of the window when playing this game.

1. Constantly having to redo my skills.

I dont know why, but ever since chapter 2 I get into a fight to find out that half my skills are unmapped for some reason. It makes me want to scream.

2. Sebille temple boost bug.

Once I used the boost on sebille in the temple at the end of chapter 2, she has four unusable skills. I thought no problem, but when I added more memory, they still cannot be used because the four bugged ones are still there blocking the new skills. Super frustrating.

3. Armor not the same on enemies as it is your players.

I get the new armor system. In fact I enjoy it in a lot of scenarios, but there are a few where it just drives me nuts. I cannot use the skill that consumes source on a mob that still has armor up, but every single fight it happens to me. Little things like that not being the same, or at least explained, frustrates me and unimmerses me from the universe.

4. Ifen loves me? WTF!

Ifen is a great character, but the pc gender loving feminist got ahold of him for about 3 minutes. Randomly this awkward conversation took place where Ifen came on to my character hard. I am not gay, nor am I a homophobic person. Mid conversation there is a built in CYA legal moment the devs build in that basically gives the opportunity for a character to be gay. I HATE THIS ♥♥♥♥. I do not care if a character in a game is gay. Just write a good character that is a certain way. Dont make the character's sexual preference up to try and please every type of person. This is a new trend in video games and it makes me sick. Just to be clear, I dont care about gay characters. Just make that character gay. Dont make characters neutral and awaiting further instruction. That's ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥.

5. CC, Stun lock bonanza

Everyone has experienced this, and regardless of intent, it is not fun to watch 10 mobs just go over, and over, and over, and over, and over...see even reading this isn't fun...and over again. It just isn't. I get how the system works, but a bit of tweaking is needed here. Admitedly, this has only happened 4 or 5 times in the whole game to me, but they are monstrously frustraiting when they do occur.

6. Camera rotation, target location, and skill pressing

There are a few moments when I am trying to use a skill, but I just cannot seem to get the cursor to recognize the target. This leads to me using the middle mouse button to try and rotate the camera a certain way while still using the skill to try and target. It is not fun. On top of that I have to click on buttons, scrolls, etc on the tool bar2 or 3 tiems to get them to function correctly. This leads to me walking my character through a field of fire instead of casting a rain scroll which def a "♥♥♥♥ it im out" moment.

I really do love this game. It takes itself much more seriously than the first game does, which is a huge improvement. There are a few things that are driving me nuts though. Just small things, but added together they can lower the rating of an otherwise amazing game. Thank you for listening to my rant! LoL...What do you guys think of the game so far?

Ifan, huh. Imagine Fane inviting you to "practise mating rituals" out of the blue. Given I was Red Prince, it looked like a rule 34 scenario. As for the stunlock, you can summon to get a feeling you can actually do something, drink armor potions and use skills that remove those effects.

Yeah, I have found a good rythm of dealing with the stunlock. Im just surprised it made it to release like it is. I didn't take fane. I went for the whole goody paladin style and taking an undead didnt seem to fit.

I noticed that with Sebille as well, at one point in the game she will jump on you whether you have romanced her or not. Are you sure you didnt accidentally wink at Ifan or something lol. I went through the game with him, and I never had to deal with gay stuff. To counter the stun lock thing, I put a shield on my enchanter and would often have my rogue turn invisible if he was low on magic armor. Didnt have has much need for defense with my ranger because she could just teleport up onto a ledge somewhere and avoid people.

I just took that as her being super thirsty. What confused me is why I couldn't reject her with "i'm in a relationship with X."
