Dunno if I agree with the "clearly doesn't work" statement, but in difficult battles I feel that I'm forced to control all the characters at all times, which means nonstop pausing.  I don't mind this so much but I know other people probably do, like grumbler (who IIRC said he wouldn't pick up the game if he heard you had to pause it all the time).  In easy battles the characters do well enough on their own with the tactical AI, but you can't trust them to not behave like retards in difficult fights (e.g. Zhevran "I'll charge right into a horde of elite Qunari mercenaries and allow myself to be completely surrounded!")

My favorite was a random battle where we all need to shoot projectiles from behind a wooden barricade. I had to disable the tactics for Zhevran as he had a tendency to stop shooting with his bow and run out of the barricades...<_<

Did you change his behavior to 'ranged' instead of 'default'?

Dear hod, the giant spider are disgusting. Epsecially when they use their "overwhelm" skill. :x

Really think this game has too much combat at times.  Turned down to easy for a bit as I was getting annoyed by it, wasn't even difficult at normal.

How much do the two add ons cost?  Are they worth it?

Stone prisoner is free if you buy the game new right now, $15 otherwise.  The other one is $7, free if you buy the digital deluxe edition.  Can't speak for that one, but Stone Prisoner is no way in hell worth $15 if they ever stop giving it away with new copies.

I bought the other one and IMO it was worth $7 or close to it.  Something about the mechanics of it annoyed me at the end:

There's technically a third add-on as well that's on the back of the Stone Prisoner redemption code card.  It's for Blood Dragon armor in both Argon Age and Mass Effect 2 when it comes out.  I registered the code and its listed as active, though I haven't figured out how to get it in game yet.
"Everything that brought you here -- all the things that made you a prisoner of past sins -- they are gone. Forever and for good. So let the past go... and live."

If you redeemed the code you should have the chest piece in inventory (needs str38 to wear it)
rest can be purchased from vendor in your camp

You keep talking about bugs but I didn't have any trouble when I visited the keep (haven't used Shale yet so can't speak about that).  What exactly are you refering to?

Nein.  Tons of people on the Bioware boards complain about the same thing, and Bioware has acknowledged the issues and claims to be working on fixing them.
