They have the framework for the AI down. Hopefully the next title with have some form of synchronous co-op. As long as the experience doesn't suffer for the sake of it, I'm cool with it. I'd very much like for this to be the one game that actually has decent AI and a co-op system. They could probably accomplish that by allowing the main pawn to be controllable by another player. At least having only 2-player co-op would force them into that proverbial corner (one where they need good AI in addition to good co-op play).

Other things that would be nice:

-a system for water combat or some sea monsters.

-intuitive and succinct pawn commands.

-blocking for warriors, or some meaningful difference between the BFSs and the warhammers.

-Quick slots for items
