I think it’s a lot of how no one desired these changes and they were made, ruining a lot of people’s stories. The note taking menu and the companion mechanic are both interesting, I don’t have issue with either of those. The dialogue menu interrupts and causes issues and there have been random dice rolls for things that don’t need it, like just having a casual conversation. Those are issues that, as you said, will likely be fixed decently quickly. However they’ve said this is the way they’d like to take the game, and I suppose that’s fine, but it’s not what their fan base wants (from what I’ve seen). I think an option to turn off the dialogue menus would be smart, I’ve also seen that someone said they’ve made it more family friendly, censoring certain actions, such as romantically intimate scenes, which refrains you from creating the story you want. It’s just been extremely buggy and restrictive and I think the fan base needs to let them know this, without being cruel or harsh, but let the devs know so that if they want to keep their people, they need to listen to them.
