Oh I am 100% calm, been so for a couple of days now. What happened was a temporary phase born out of dissatisfaction with Minthara being cripplingly broken again and fear that she may be being turned into some nonsensical evil Disney villain because of this scene, but I got out of it and this is me being calm again.
This is why I also shared that video yesterday about the infamous scene, which I completely redid from scratch because I am back in my non-bias constructive mode so it is just pure objective treatment from a constructive feedback standpoint, without any personal thoughts of mine. And as is evident the bug report I did has zero useless personal commentary surrounding it too.
As for the comment; I was merely sharing thoughts with someone else, not really meant to be anything more than useless feelings to be discarded. But I misspoke, it got taken the wrong way so I deleted it afterwards since I personally don't even care about this nor are my thoughts important at all.
And yes, I know someone might actually throw a look into this thread. That's why I just deleted the stupid parts and am trying to let it be just forgotten useless thoughts.
If I could I would just delete every single post I ever made in this thread as of Update #6, am actually thinking of asking a moderator to just purge this entire thread of my posts.
Anywho.
That is good that it can at least somehow be avoided, though I fear what else it might be breaking by doing so. I did not personally try to avoid it so extensively, as all my tests were focused exclusively around the period related to it. So basically the period before the Temple and several long rests after it.
I was mostly trying to figure out why she is missing her Orin dialogue (since it is actually my favorite dialogue with Minthara in the entire game), so I found out she also has that dialogue if she herself gets abducted (because the infamous scene does not get in the way). But unfortunately then all her pop up dialogues just break. It is a big broken mess at the moment.
And there really is no way to get her legitimately abducted because I believe Orin kidnaps specific highest approving companions from the camp, which is usually Gale if he isn't in the party. So will have to use the disguise until it is fixed.
