By the way the main story has a lot of inconsistency here and there, it is quite clear they did do substantial rewrites.
After all that constant yammering about choice and consequence.. Where is it ??
And don't get me started on the Emperor..
Considering that the Emperor is not even in the artbook but Daisy is it looks like he was a very late addition/rewrite to the game which explains why it is so sloppy. That was probably the point Larian decided not to have consequences, removed Daisy and made the plans for tadpole powerups.
