The game is full of bugs. Some minor, some major.

Are there really any show stopping bugs? or just minor annoyances. I have heard about the skill chart not being able to scroll after a certain amount of skills are accquired, but this can be solved by training in the guild. What else is there? I would like to play the game but really want to wait for a patch.

Several people have posted to say they have finished the game so it can be done. Activision won't yet say whether a patch will be produced or not. My advice would be to play Baldurs Gate 2 first if you haven't already and hope a patch has come out by the time you finish it. Otherwise, just dive in and hope for the best, saving often.

I love this game, no bug is going to stop me from playing it. Alot of these bugs SHOULD have been adressed in beta. That, or they had crappy beta testers. Hehe.
