The first time I've played I'be found the main story confusing, and some things didn't make sense to me. After second playthrough, I just think it is badly written. My guess this is the result of the big rewrite and switching from Daisy to the guardian, but also how the tadpoles impacted rhe story.
The irony is that the same issue, which players complained about Daisy in the EA, remains: the guardian is just as obvious with their insistence to use the tadpole powers.
