But the the entire main story got changed to make room for the emperor late in development
they said in the recent interview the emperor was a focal point of the story right away, or at least the "spot" he takes up in the story, i think just the character got reskinned? i heard something about another character filling his spot before, but the function he holds in the story was always filled
but they don't playtest content properly before releasing the patch.
this is one of if not the biggest issue they have, i haven't experienced a game like this where content gets patched in half finished into the full release of the game, like minthara's KO recruitment causing a set of new bugs and her showing up naked which - while funny - kind of takes away her dignity and paints her in a more silly light in the eyes of the players, while she isn't meant as a primarily silly character, they're basically shooting their own character in a way, good job larian
