This happened just before I finished up playing last night and it's been bugging me. It's certainly not the biggest issue I have with the story, or even with Wyll, but thought I'd see if anyone else had the same problem while it was fresh in my mind.

Basically, there's a decision that Wyll needs to make in Act 3 and my character didn't have the option to tell him that it was his call, only to steer him in one direction or another. This is niggling particularly as the way she would steer him to go probably isn't what he'd do if it were up to him, so it feels like the game is forcing me to compromise roleplaying my own character if I'm going to allow Wyll to be who I think he is on this run.

But then my party acts as though Wyll did make the decision by himself, so I'm not sure if the game is letting him decide behind the scenes or even if it's bugged and I'm missing some options, which certainly seems to be the case in some other dialogues.

More specifically ...

In my playthrough, Mizora has agreed to break Wyll's pact in six months. However, after Gortash's coronation, she appeared to tell us his father has been whisked away (which was pretty quick, as we'd only just left the audience chamber!). That night, she came to our inn room and gave Wyll a choice of signing up with her again for eternity and saving his father, or letting his father die and breaking the pact immediately.

The only options I had are as per the below screenshot. My character definitely wouldn't encourage him to sell his soul, so I went with 3 despite the fact that she'd never try to make such a decision for him. And he went along with the suggestion without any argument. Whereas I feel that the Wyll in my playthrough probably would have made the other choice, as someone willing to sacrifice himself for the greater good and in the hope that he might find a way out later. He might not have, admittedly, and when I spoke to my party members afterwards they all seemed to be talking as though he'd given up his father of his own free will rather than because I'd asked him to, so for me it's less about the actual outcome than feeling that the scene and process didn't ring true.

Did anyone else have similar problems with this scene? Did it play out differently for you?
