I for one, thought the Bear scene was there as a laugh, and actually carefully placed in the presentation strategically. With this, they got to show there's gaymance for the Go Woke, but veered away from that quickly and with a bang so as to avoid the Go Broke. It was rather clever, in truth. There was no way in the Nine Hells the audience would vote *anything other* than that option, good play. And it *does* create buzz, and at the same time, not spoil anything - It's not a choice many players will make [I suspect, metrics will tell a month from now]. That said. If I ever roll a Druid, though, and I will sooner rather than later - I'm anxious to see if it's possible to meet that Grizzly *as* a Grizzly. Now that, that would be fun and to me, and a lot less awkward than a humanoid taking that challenge.
Now, advocate of the Devil mode.
In defense of those who do find it in poor taste - I get it. I most assuredly do. The majority of folks on these Fora will have at least some understanding of what a Druid is, or that Halsin is, in fact, more Elven than the average bear. Those on the Steam Forums will, on average, have that a lot less. So, for a person looking in from the outside, there is very little nuance here. Can you have sex with a bear? Yes. Is that, besides lethal, disgusting? Yes. Is that the thing that stood out for me? Yes. I will say that on Steam, then. I get it.
