3rd week since release, still no patch. Seems all is good with the game, why bother.
Well, I can only sign up above all that have been said here.
While I love classic RPG and see no way for a game to be classic without healers, DAI can be that game IF they had not removed AI settings along with the healers...
As many told already, having or not healers should be OUR choice, to play the game how WE want. And what with this oversimplification? As I remember EA advertised the game was UNBELIEVABLY tactical. Where is it all? In your devblog you told us that you can and NEED to evade some enemy attacks to stay alive. Where IS that all?
In the end the healing magic was removed/castrated with just spirit tree, that can make a barrier (which is actually the only thing that can protect us, armor aside, which came from old DA games), dissolve status aliments (completely useless in this game settings actually), mindblast (well, good old mindblast), and revive (actually very useful, but useless since AI will NEVER use it on it's own).
While it is clear that EA/Bioware tried to make the "console" game and squeeze it to PC as well. They should know better as to try such folly. Console games are NOT suited for PC. And even with that EA/Bioware could still leave AI setting from DAO.
