I would also certainly agree with those that think act 3 was something of a damp squib. The early access hinted at a more complex political situation in the city than the released game provided. It may be that I simply missed a lot of act 3 content, but if so, it was not for lack of trying.
That’s quite possible. I’m in my second playthrough, and half the time I’m experiencing stuff I completely missed in my first playthrough.
