I could care less about them reducing the shuffle/making the controls more responsive.
I'm worried that they won't fix the real issues that the combat in Dragon Age : Origins had. Plus, I'd like to see this 'tactical camera 2.0' (0.5 according to the german press), but the idea doesn't inspire me in the slightest.
DA2 it's definitely a wait-and-see as of now. I'll probably grab it anyway, but if it goes on with this trend, I'll wait for a steam sale or for a retailer to cut its price.
