Helms & Hats: An Incomplete Feature?
What about adding crown or tiara variants for the noble types?

Are retail copies strictly only Steam-enabled?
To be fair I don't think GOG has taken longer than 24 hours to have the patch ready for download for PoE. Seems pretty reasonable to me. I can't speak of other games though because this the only new one I have from GOG so the rest are already fully patched when I purchase / download.

The reason why a lot of va isn't voiced?
I like the quality and amount of VA we currently have. It's true to form (Kickstarter description). Definitely don't want you guys to sacrifice something for the sake of adding more.

What is "Bash?"
I thought bash meant the it gave you the ability to use the shield as weapon, but otherwise is just a normal shield. Currently have Larder Door on Eder and if you select him from the main screen an extra icon is there next to his normal knockdown one. I think the 'Bash 2' means you can select it twice per an encounter. If you don't use the ability then it just acts like a normal shield as opposed to dual wielding two weapons. Maybe using bash has a chance to cause knockdown so a non fighter could equip it and use it for knockdown effect, otherwise maybe not much incentive to use the bash ability because you'd want to use your main hand weapon to attack. This is just a general observation I've made so it could be incorrect.

when will 1.04 up for down?
Thought the same thing. I'm guessing it's 'when will it be updated/uploaded for download?'

Berathian Robes (Raedric's Hold)
Not sure if it's required but when I did it I made sure everyone in the party was wearing the robes. Did you try that? Or just the PC?

I love the little details: maps on tables etc....
Yes! Scripted interactions are amazing for the reason stated above. More in the expansion / sequel please.

Some mobs don't give XP?
Have you maxed out the creature encyclopaedia? I think it's part of the journal. Once that's 100% you don't receive any more creature xp for that creature.

I'm having a blast, guys.
Yep, the game simply rocks. I can't remember the last time I *really* enjoyed a game that I want to return to and keep playing. Writing is top notch. The game sucked me in straight away and now I can't wait for extra long weekend coming up (in Australia) so I can play for more than an hour at a time!

Feedback on game
Do you mind that these forums don't have full VO then? It's a little.. odd that you're here engaging in discussion but don't like the 'lack' of VO? Like many others have stated, I find the balance spot on, it is in the same vein of the infinity engine games after all.

Ambient sounds + NPCs : cities too empty ? + Animations of characters
I don't think the cities necessarily need more people, maybe the existing ones just need to be a bit more dynamic. We've compared the number of people in the cities of PoE vs. BG, etc. but BG, and particularly BGII, had much bigger cities in terms of phsyical size. The actual maps were bigger, so it made sense to have more people filling them. In PoE the First Fires district was made up of about 4 buildings. They were large buildings but there wasn't many of them. Whether that's a reflection on 'filler content' or something else I don't know but I think it'd help if we kept it in perspective in number of people vs. map size for each individual game (and to expand on that each games goals, lore, even engine capabilities). For example it may not be fun to fill a city if it means path finding suffers and then it detracts from user experience.

Carry Weight?
Did not know there is going to be no arrows in PoE! Thanks for that insightful tidbit. Shame though, I liked the different ammo types.
