1. There were several problems all of the fans addressed. These were bad combat, generic npc's and framerate issues. They have at least dealt with the first two, making combat kinetic and npc's (all 1200 of them) unique.
2. Notice how all of the actors are British? (wasn't this the case with MW as well?) [/QUOTE]If they're making each character unique, then that's fine with me. But from what i've seen from the demos, each line of dialogue is short and more than a little simple. And even though i love Patrick Stewart (not literally, but you get the idea) i didn't find a single example of quality voice acting. Maybe i'm just a fussy bastard, but i'd much prefer to leave most of the voices to my own imagination and use the extra disk space to make the dialogue not so "condensed".
British accents (not actors) are the status quo in rpgs and, on the whole, i don't have a problem with that. I also don't mind 'some' of the non-accents like the hoarse, guttural dark elf speach. But aside from a little introductory comment to set the scene, i'd like to leave it all in my head. But that's just me. Something tells me i'm in the overwhelming minority here...
