Oh! Do you have any screenshots for this? Or a recording? I need to personally confirm this before adding anything, but I have Astarion in all my playthroughs at the moment.

It just does not make any sense since release of patch 5 that introduced epiloque chapter, I sent a very technical and extensive bug report regarding this and hoping it gets redacted back with the "IMPOSSIBLE" tag, it seriously should have been brought back to drawing table and be re-worded, this feels like content that was recorded and worked on from long time ago, like why was this piece of line not reworked to adjust with the narration changes patch 5 brought to us?

Let alone the writing being contradictional is this coming from the lead writer of Minthara?

100%, I'm really questioning their ability to write if this is intentional. I think the conflict (as a concept) works but they need to put in a lot more work for this to make sense.

I want this to be a bug, a sign of their sheer incompetence, but I'm reminded Minthara's poison kiss also had the "IMPOSSIBLE" tag before it was then removed and fully implemented. We've never had bugs like this, I don't think? Her bugs were always strange, she would repeat lines and suddenly break up with you at a certain approval, but it has never brought back datamined content from early release days (yeah, this is pretty old) so a part of me thinks this isn't a mistake. But this begs the question why they would release this now when it's clearly not ready?

Whatever they do, I just hope they don't leave this as it is. It's so surreal and immersion breaking since the breakup doesn't even work.
