I figured we should have a post for random thoughts, questions and other comments that people might want to do without having to create a new post just for that.

Do people agree this idea? We can have these up (possibly pinned) for a while. Maybe a few days, at most a week.

Please keep discussion spoiler free, unless you are using the appropriate tags.

Cheers!!

Act 3 is really something. I am loving all the wheeling and dealing happening. I wish it was optimized better, but the story is so exciting. I can't wait to see what happens next.

Also, I've been comparing notes with my husband on his playthrough and I have had important story scenes with characters that have never appeared in his playthrough. He and I also have opposite outcomes for several companions and it's kind of mind blowing how big the differences are.

Act 3 has been a mass of script errors for me. I feel like every time I play, I have a scene where a companion talks about a plot line we have already resolved, or acts like something happened that didn't. It has actually really dampened my enthusiasm for the game, compared to how polished Act 1 was especially.

I hope your playthrough continues going well!

I have had one instance where Gale chided me for making a deal with a character I hadn't even met yet. And the romance path with Minthara seems to be broken completely. I'm still having a blast, though.

Yeah gale is completely broken for me. Keeps bringing up his conversation from the end of act 2 and then talking to me about taking the deal which I never did. Rinse repeat.

I chopped off Games hand and he never joined the party, but I still get comments from the others about him haha

I've reposted acts 1 and 2, 3 times now, haven't finished 3 yet.
