Hello Larian,

First off I just wanna say I loved this game, and this is a post from said love. The passion and dedication you guys gave shows and it's thrilling to have a feature complete game.

HOWEVER

Act 3 and the endings are a COMPLETE mess, from wrong cutscenes playing, to certain cutscenes NOT playing, and really just not 'feeling' the 17,000 different supposed variations of the ending.

I feel that the game was all about player agency, up until the end, where you are forced to certain outcomes. And none of those outcomes feel good. Which is a big oversight IMO. Also making certain choices makes The Emporer make a decision that in my opinion goes COMPLETELY against his character the whole game. I find it hard to believe, and immersion breaking, that he'd rather just become a thrall to the netherbrain than spend half a minute at least hearing Orpheus out. I don't wanna get into too much detail cause spoilers, but I really hope that you guys release a definitive edition that completely re-works the final act and the endings you can get and also adds a slide show type thing that goes over how all the characters faired after the ending.

Overall Act 3 and the ending left a bad taste in my mouth and soured an overall amazing experience with this game, and I hope it gets fixed.

Thanks and much love.

I have said it before though, left wanting more is one of the least awful feelings peopel can feel to an imperfect ending.

Us wanting more from them is not a bad thing.
