Even if her questline is a bit shorter, it's still great and fully fleshed and finished very well. Dammon tried and failed, Gondians and Gortash's tech couldn't help so it's time to accept the harsh reality, like come on how many more things we should try for you to change opinion?(we don't take into consideration cheesy solutions like ressurection scroll etc). Just like Cyberpunk, her story is tragedy and it's a great one, I don't see a reason why this should be changed and even then you still can get hopeful ending in Avernus. As for convincing her, the decision could be made earlier but would that change anything really? She's a stubborn character so it's obvious she'd try to do things her way and could be convinced only at the very end when there is no other choice.
But he did try but couldn't fix her. Gortash and Gondians also didn't have solution. Mizora and Raphael are demons, demons already enslaved her before, why would she trust them? The game allows you to try but it's hopeless, pretty much like V's story which is what makes it so great and allows us to appreciate the time we have left with Karlach
Conrad, i get your point of view. i understand where you're coming from with the V from cyberpunk parallel. But just stating something doesn't make it true. we... didn't try anything with the gondians and the new tech we are nudged towards in the game. We simply didn't. I don't know why you're so adamant about the fact that WE TRIED EVERYTHING, because we really didn't... i'm not talking about DnD mental gymnastics, i'm talking about stuff already present in the game. We are redirected towards it, yet it's never used. Because it was likely cut due to time and money costraints. You can appreciate it what's there regardless, that much is obvious. Doesn't change the fact that part of what you're saying simply isn't true: we didn't try all we could. And Karlach was never written with only these endings in mind, i'll redirect you towards Frazer revealing by accident he indeed recorded scenes and dialogue for a fix dammon finally found:
i really think all the endings are valid, as long as also this one is allowed to exist. That wouldn't take away from you and your enjoyment of the character. It doesn't cheapen it, not by a long shot. It just makes the questline, the character, and the world make sense in the context they are in.
