I could have sworn that the tooltip says it does.

Does it really affect you though? I agree that individual characters should be able to stealth, but it doesn't make much of a difference in practice.

Yup, I got 3 hours of sleep last night. Worth it.

I'm just playing normal. There are still challenging encounters, but it doesn't feel like every encounter is tedious.

Before the survey can help new players, it needs responses from players with some experience. Here it is: http://www.cleversurveys.com/survey/train/5641332169113600_5741031244955648/pillars-of-eternity-class-and-race-prediction-and-companions If you know anyone who got a pre-release copy, was in the beta, or just stayed up all night playing these last two days, let them know so we can get this survey making predictions faster. I'm curious to see what it thinks my class and race should be.

Sometimes realism needs to be sacrificed to make a better game. At least in my opinion, this is one of those times. Encumbrance is just unnecessarily tedious.

I'd also like co-op. Have the devs mentioned this as a possibility?
