I've played about 8.5 hours of PoE so far. My impression is not different to a lot of posters here.
It feels painfully generic and bland. It is so familiar, there's no sense of anything new in this game. It screams out "go play BG or IWD". It's a bit ironic really, I wanted a game like BG/IWD for so long and now that I've got what I wanted, I'm terribly disappointed. Truth is, I wanted a similar game but with something different too. An exciting new universe, new companions that are not clones from other well-known games, engaging story.... you know. I'm hoping the story will pick up soon and once I get to know my companions I will find them more interesting. Oh, and is it just me or many of you find voice acting dreadful? There's no personality in it.
On top of this, my hubby is experiencing this bug that takes up huge amount of his RAM when he runs PoE (he's game is like a slideshow)... anyone else experienced this?
