Weird. Most people praise the writing, even in its current state, me included. And most of Larian's writers are English natives...

Do you have examples maybe?



I figured it out after I started speaking to main NPC's and part of it was my setup when I started a new game and played a dwarf fighter instead of an elf all sorts of glitches cleared up. My main example from this was that when speaking with someone all of a sudden they change subjects or when speaking with an elf all the dialog is two words and then a period.

Example of what was happening speaking with the ghost in fort joy. He asked me save him by destroying his soul jar and then gave me no hint as to where it was. Then he acted insulted. (after starting my new play thru and checking dialog options i realized something was auto selecting dialog options without even showing me the menu i don't think i will be playing elf until game release)
