Inventory management was horrible. Party management was horrible (but I've heard they improved it a bit). Camera management was horrible around areas with multiple floors, especially when they weren't flat. (The othon fight in particular was awful.) I encountered a few soft locks with enemies sort of teleporting to the shadow realm or some shit and getting stuck inside the illusory door in the hag's den. Specific graphics settings would get unset every time I opened the game. Stuff like a bug preventing tons of Minthara's dialogue not being in the game. They fixed that, which is great, but there's just so many little things like this all over the place. I feel like I'm taking crazy pills when people say it's polished. It's fun and I enjoy it, but it's certainly not polished.

Also, putting a character (Gale) behind a skill check is insane.
