I have few problems with this post, but I think I can summarize most of them to three.
For one, none of the aforementioned points is actually about breaking the "Show, don't tell" guideline; if anything they seem to be complaints about how "undercooked" some parts of the narrative are.
Second, the claim that the "child vs serpent" episode is the "proof that Kagha is evil" is a complete misfire on its own, because that's not at all what it is about.
Third, while there's no doubt that the current narrative has its fair share of "rough edges" that should be refined or marginally expanded before release, I'm starting to wonder if people realize that we aren't supposed to build home and spend the rest of our fictional life in Act 1, but that it's meant to be little more than a prologue -and an already fairly beefy one- and we'll soon move to the second act of the game, the area around Baldur's Gate, which is most likely where most of of the content will be placed.
And the whole "evil druids investigation" in particular seems to be intended as little more than a marginal footnote, not at a central plot point by any stretch.
