I never stated that their could or couldn't be more in some situations, just that there are more then what people are seeing. Are the choices going to be what everyone wants, no, especially when they're not seeing all of it. Wether it be through rushing, not paying as much attention or just going by one playthrough. Either of these things can lead to them believing the choices are limited, when they are not. or not as limiting as what is seen at first glance.

You want a summary of all my supposed ramblings. Open your eyes, play through even the first part of the game multipule times, in different ways, with different classes, and races. Explore around, then come and make an informed decision. Because evidently people providing proof, as to what they have noticed is simply rambling, and not going to change views. If proof doesn't, then what does?

also with the provided examples you can go through and keep an eye out, maybe even see something I miss,or others miss.



People in this thread are talking about their experiences and their feelings in reaction to those experiences. It is neither kind nor helpful to tell people that their feelings are wrong. If people feel like their choices don't matter, that is something that Larian needs to know, regardless of what the underlying mechanisms really are.

A person who plays the game and has a bad time of it isn't going to play through it multiple times to find out that it could have gone another way - they're just going to walk away with a memory of a bad experience. Objective truth, to the extent that there is such a thing, is irrelevant. Please tone down the condescension in the future.
