I wanted to start a new thread, but I think it would get lost. so I brought my thoughts here:
We only asked for a different camera angle
This is another attempt to request a few changes to the spawn (good) ending. After some discussions in the spawn Astarion corner, I've noticed three wishes that are particularly important to us, but sone have been partially ignored for a year.
The camera angle during the new kiss:
We were really happy about the passion in this kiss, how he leans forward because he wants to be close to Tav.
But the rest of the kiss is seen the back of his head. The intimacy that was shown so wonderfully in the graveyard scene, so close and intimate, is not the case here. It's just a camera angle we're asking for. however, the request of the Ascended corner is immediately addressed and the beautiful face is changed noe.
The final scene at the dock:
Thank you for adjusting some comments regarding Astarion's decision not to become a monster and for feeling the drawbacks of the curse again. A decision that most companions celebrated with respect and pride. Now that the sun is becoming his enemy again, however, he is being mocked.
But most importantly, we wanted (romance, or even as a friend) to give him some kind of reaction. Something like - 'I will follow you', 'we will find a way'. A reaction, anything.... Unfortunately, Tav remains emotionless, which is extremely unsatisfying.
The dialogue in the epilogue:
when romanced I am extremely grateful for the hug, for the way Astarion seems so calm and content in the epilogue. But in the romance, you are left wondering. The unromanced spawn Astarion has so much to say, so many positive changes.
A dialogue with the same answers could be possible. It feels unbalanced compared to Ascended Astarion in the epilogue, where the changes are clearly felt through dialogues.
