I am not really sure if this is intended but:
-Some NPCs attack even Familiars on sight (Gobbos at blighted village entrance, why would they hit a raven or a rat?)
Even after this, the Tieflings welcomed me as their savior, weird. And the usual impact of late game information on early game conversations and such.
Imo Familiars should not be able to either unlock waypoints, nor trigger story progress if it is not tested or wanted.
Intended?
Yes it is ... i remember Swen mentioning that they decided to give familiars unlimited range somewhen around Patch 1.
I belive he was showing spider back then.
Why Goblins attack?
Dunno ... target practice? Bcs they are assholes? Bcs they are searching dor druids and know animals can help them? w/e ... pick what suits you, but it was litteraly mentioned by multiple druids that Goblins was shooting birds they send to scout.
They welcome you as saviour even when you litteraly butcher everyone at gate youreself personaly.
I believe its simply bcs you have no other choice here ... even if you kill Aradin, Zevlor and Wyll ... nobody from inside knows since they werent there ... and you actualy saved them since you killed goblins that were attacking them.
Its little twisted but it makes sence.
Agreed on waypoints.
