OK, I just started Chapter 2, and finished pretty much everything in Chapter 1 (side-quests, optional stuff, all henchmen, etc.).
And you know what - it actually works!
Sure the controls are a bit wonky - first this is android, which is inherently less efficient as a tablet OS than iOS … and I alway find those ‘virtual joystick’ systems a bit clunky.
But they put a big pause button next to the quick slots bar, which is very helpful in terms of size and location.
They also use ‘long press’ as a right-click substitute, which isn’t as good as ‘force touch’ on iOS but works pretty well. After a short time, disabling traps and unlocking chests happens very quickly.
The game has already seen two or three patches since release, which then require additional downloads upon launching the game after a patch to update all the ‘bif’ files. The initial release was quite buggy, but since the first patch I haven’t had a crash or other problem worth noting. Well … occasionally it gets a bit laggy in terms of responding to controls and then I’m walking into a wall
Pleasantly surprised, really. Especially since I have now played more of NWN:EE on a tablet than BG:EE, BG2:EE, IWD:EE and PST:EE combined! Only KOTOR have I actually completed on a tablet (and only once!)
