I'm not even talking about bugs. Opinion based on act1 and very beginning of act2 experience.

    1. Dialog and player choices feel railroaded as heck, options are suddenly lovelove or rude as fuck. Quality of dialog writing is very different from other parts of the game.
    1. His story is r/rpghorrorstory level problematic. From DM perspective his backstory and associate npc's are especially bad choices.
  • It wouldn't bother as much if either was better, but both in current state just sticks out to me.

My partner thinks this character must be some executives personal OP character shoe horned in to game despite criticism.

spoilersidenote: His story would work far better if he was delusional insane person. Instead its literal game over with "certain choices", if you take him out of the portal.

Yes, Gale gives me the feeling that the wasn't "intended" to be a romance option and they show horned it in later since "everyone else is". It's fine to have companion that only allow platonic relationships. Gale is a weird one because you accidently fall into his romance but nothing tells you that you have. When you got the dialogue he asked me to choose and I had never committed myself to him, so I simply ended the dialogue.

The other champions seem a lot more obvious about romance paths, but I do dislike how nearly all the "no" paths are rude or mean in some way.
