Minor act three spoilers
I know, with the Dribbles thing, I was thinking, Lucretius wants me to find out what happened to Dribbles, but isn’t finding his torso enough to indicate that he’s dead?? Haha. But Lucretius was just like, “keep looking.” Maybe they are planning to tape him back together again?
Don't they flat out state that this is the plan from the beginning?
They do, yes. I mean, that is a necromancer right there, so makes sense.
Ahh zombie Dribbles! I’ll have to do that quest then just to see the lovely end result. We get to see zombie Dribbles in all his gory glory I hope?
I don’t really care about minor reactivity like what a flaming fist will say to you. More what I’m looking for is character reactions to very major plot developments. Which in some cases are egregiously missing. Major act three spoilers:
For example, when Gortash makes very clear that you are not only a Bhaalspawn, but the fallen chosen of Bhaal, Shadowheart as your romance interest has literally NO reaction to that. No comment. Only Astarion had a reaction when I talked to him about that revelation. That’s a massive oversight, and there should be more reactivity there! And then, when Bhaal kills you when you resist him as Durge, there is literally NO reaction from your companions. And after Withers resurrects you, they all seem quite unemotional, like they’ve been sitting there watching a TV show and comment on it or something. And they only say very basic things like, “oh, I knew you could resist your urges.” They don’t mention that you were just brutally murdered in front of their eyes. So yeah, who cares what minor characters have to say? I just want reactivity from companions at some of the biggest moments of the game! And I truly don’t think that’s too much to ask for.
I feel like whole Durge interactions in underdeveloped, not only in final act but from the beginning. Especially if you choose not to resist urges. Only npcs who react accordingly to durge's plot are Astarion and Jaheira.
I think that the evil path is just wildly underdeveloped as a whole, because almost nobody plays through that. For the good/resisting Durge, I personally felt like it was really well-developed in acts one and two. It’s the ending that grinds my gears. Just not enough content there. But, I believe you when you say that the evil Durge storyline is underdeveloped throughout.
