The fact that you COULD do anything was a turn-off for me. I know having "restraints" would mean certain content would be cut off from you - but the fact that yuo could join ANY guild (including both good AND bad guilds) as well as numerous houses and unofficial groups - was just overkill.

You're telling me noone in any of these organizations (especially those that bar killing etc) - wouldnt hear about your actions - ESPECIALLY when you become HEAD of the house. . .just not likely. . .

Then there are the NUMEROUS dungeons/caves that get mistaken for ACTUAL dungeons/caves youre supposed to adventure in. . .not so bad. . .hopefully this fast track system improves on that. . .

Youre right. This game cant get here fast enough. I remember when MW came out - I was in love with the game. I didnt make it to BALDUR until about 8 hours into actually playing when I remembered - hey, Im supposed to get to this city (actually I couldnt understand the instructions on how to get to BALDURA - so instead of going NE through CALDERA, I went NW through the swamps and the coast/mountains. . .picked up the ORC armor though from the ISLAND off the coast - so not a total waste).

Another complain - the spell system. I hate it. Im not against being able to create your own spells, but let me delete spells if you're going to give me this ability. Also an auto-name feature would be nice (since the names they have for theirs are so cool). I ended up naming spells "Unlock To Get Into Sweet Drawer" and other ridiculous names. Also - thankfully - youre only able to buy your skill upgrade to a certain point. . .finding out about the CREEPER trick - and finding all the adamantium around town basically gave me a quick 200G starting off. . .so that I was one bad mofo - without even getting to the capital city.

All in all the end of MARCH cant come soon enough - which is when Im sure the game is going to be released. . .the video that was just released that has the unaltered audio (that the german mag released like WEEKS ago. . .) - where you hear the sounds of you fighting the white boy in Elvin Armor - I nearly came. . .

Hopefully the "real world interaction" thats going on in the game, doesnt end up like HL2's ridiculous scripted (and lame) feel. . .
