I 100% agree.

I too was sure when I got to beta test patch 7 that SURELY the most important scene for Durge would be improved!

There are other (many other) moments when Durge needed more reactivity, but I could try to ignore them. But that? The scene in Act 3 where FINALLY Durge story get solved, the climax, the most important moment in a good Durge playthrough is ignored???

Sorry, I don't want to be harsh, I LOVE this game. But I seriously wonder why there was nice addition that were superfluous (yes, Alfira as a temporarily companion is nice, but was it necessary? No, because only new player could be fooled by this) but something so important was ignored.

Seriously, I can't consider the game complete if the most important scene in a good Durge playthrough is just ignored. And while I loved all the other updates... Was it really too much work to fix that scene?
Even just showing our Lover shocked during the scene, having them trying to get closer and scream "No!" Would vastly improve it!
And then obviously give them a better line ("without you I would be food for worm" or "I feel twee"... REALLY? ) after something so traumatic.

Really, I think everything else is secondary compared to what is basically improving the climax of Durge main quest. The "reactions" we got feels more like a placeholder than a true reaction...

I really hope you fix this, because Durge story severally lack reaction in many instances (except for Astarion, and I know his popular, but why dors he ave so much more contents compared to other?), but THAT SCENE has to be fixed. It should be the priority right now, more than anything else.
