Just saw a streamer did the monastery quest. He just went in and kill the monks until the quest told him he got the target. Of course his Sasau rep went to the red. He also just ran out in the prisoner escape quest.

Well, I learned in the Baptism of Fire quest that:
Mass combat is a pita
That duel in the church steeple is a LOT easier with a poisoned blade
This was not, in fact, the endgame. There's more stuff afterwards, which surprised me since people were making such a big deal about "getting ready"

I fucking hate this quest where you infiltrate the monastery. It's really out of place with the rest of the game, innit? I get they wanted to take that investigator Henry branch up a notch but I mean it's an open world game. I've had it when one of the "guard" tried to randomly search me and just quit and came back with full gear to get it done with.

I fucking hate this quest where you infiltrate the monastery. There are a lot of quests similar to the monastery that are very railroady... I like the idea of it more, and the sort of political stuff you deal with between the brothers. Execution is bad if you build a primarily physical build. That's a big problem with the game, the same problem I had with Skyrim, some builds are made invalid during certain main questlines.

Well I was level 12. And maybe a 7 or so with Swords. I didn't have high enough stats for the sword I had either

I defeated Bernhard in duel with real weapons today. The feeling of success was almost erotic. I like how you can tell difference between being a noob at the beginning and being pretty good warrior in middle to late game, especially when you're training with that guy from the start. Shame there wasn't any dialogue after that.

FPS seems a lot more stable, too, and no more three seconds freezes far as I can tell.

Geez the villains in the main story are like nested eggs.
Every time I uncover on, there's another even higher up on the food chain.

Unless you have a super memory. In that case, when you consider what Henry would remember you're like "OH SHIT IT'S YOU YOU LITTLE FUCK"
If you only care what you as player remember... yes, "Who the fuck are you?"

In that case, when you consider what Henry would remember you're like "OH SHIT IT'S YOU YOU LITTLE FUCK" If you only care what you as player remember... yes, "Who the fuck are you?" I guess that is the problem with defined main characters, personally I am of the belief the game should try and make the player feel what the main character is feeling or at the very least not show the main character to be feeling something or remembering something that means nothing to the player, the developer should strive to make the mind of the protagonist and the mind of the player one and the same, or at the very least that is my philosophy for game development. But that being said I am not sure why even Henry would even have such a strong recollection about this character or such a strong feeling of betrayal, it is not like the 2 characters really had much interaction with each other.

I mean, I just finished "All that Glisters" and ran down the villain there, and it turns out he had at least one other boss above him, and it's implied there's another even higher up. Honestly I expected the game to end when you killed Runt Since he was the one with the most immediate vendetta...
