So they present a mechanic in game even though it's largely non functional and let you put points into it thinking it'll help when it does nothing to very little? In fact you can screw over your own people who benefit the most by acting early? Awesome.
That just blows my mind and seems very.. I dunno... Sloppy? So many other parts of the game are so nice and refined that are a pleasure to experience.. Then you have something like this blemishing it. I went through more than half the game wasting stat points..
Good news is you can quickly see what is going on and adjust, aka if you think it doesn't mean much that gives you a point to put elsewhere when the time comes and we can respec it out if we want just a little later. I have boosted the stat, along with Retribution and Perseverance a bit more, so when it is time to put a point in somewhere it is a close call between all options.
