On a more positive note, since I didn't see anyone mention it yet, but Samantha has been longlisted at the BAFTAs for her role as Karlach. I'm sorry if I missed it (I tried to catch up on things after the week of not being able to access this at all, the server still seems to be struggling)
If I had a vote, she'd get it, and hopefully she’ll be among those on the final list. Her performance definitely is a big reason why this character matters so much to me. She got me to feel a lot
and that post-gortash scene is just… I didn’t expect them to stab me like that. It’s been a long time since a scene has hit me that hard. Kudos to her for that delivery especially
It’s also why I am okay with the epilogue – there is still hope, not everything is lost. Sure I’d love to solve things actively in the game, but at least the future is still there, anything is still possible.
Overall, the game is not perfect, but for me the good still outweighs the bad by a lot.
