Human mages? Just use stinking cloud
I don’t think they’re human and their fortitude save is too high.

Looks like something broke

Maybe they shouldn't waste their resources on making these cutscenes that break the flow of gameplay if they're depending on characters that got kill a few minutes ago by an NPC.

I had a npc get yeeted away with a tsunami during a cutscene, so the camera kept switching to a blank spot. At some point the npc had to walk somewhere, which took a long, awkward pause as she slowly made her way back from 2 screens away.

After picking lich path the game offered me merged or separate spell books. At the time there was no indication that this had any gameplay effect so i picked separate spellbooks. Now I find out there are massive benefits to having a merged spellbook and the fucking game didn't bother to mention it!!
Is there anything I can do now to merge the spellbooks or do I have to reload?
Maybe it's too early for you to play casters if you didn't know it's useful before?

Is lich fun? Is i good?

Yeah to both.

I can see 2 viable builds: some sort of shapeshiftin', chargin' death knight (pick the damage, -str on natural attacks, and the damage on each charge hit, and a way of getting pounce).

OR

Favored metamagic extend, the "buff lasts 24 hour" feats, and when your caster level hits... 25? you can give your entire team undead immunities and DR for 24 hours then support with spells like this

Which aoes for 465 damage once megamagiked, despite the description. All buffs like haste, greater invis, etc will last 24 hours. Having the whole team under haste and greater invis is funny because you can let them loose in real time on a map and most shit will run away as as your dudes spread out and slaughter the poor terrified demons.

Summons are good early but not worth the actions of your lich late game. Even pre-casted with all the feats the best they can be is meatshield at this point.

I'm running 24 hour buffs lich with sorcerer, though grey-fur might be better (if you can legendary proportions THEN turn them undead).
Lich has a lot of options. Here is a weird idea someone had which (admittedly is very poorly optimized and would in my opinion work better as arcane trickster) does a lot of damage.

None of the classes really work that well with demon. It has some minor synergy with kineticist (the 1 demon aspect that gives a free AoO when you attempt a combat maneuver works with Kineticist CMs on blasts and you can get free ranged AoO blasts from it) and it also has some minor synergy with casters (aspects that give + to DCs and - to enemies saves, as well as roll twice take best result stuff). It has negative synergy with any class that has rage, because demonic rage and rage cannot be active at the same time. It does have a lot of item support however and I think that if you go with the items, what is potentially the best way to go is either an arcane trickster focusing on dealing damage with rays, or some sort of ranged throwing weapon build.

The biggest problem with demon is that 90% of its bonuses only apply when you are raging, but you can only rage a very limited number of times per day, so either you rest spam or you play basically without a mythic path.

"Now you are learning." (C) Desiderius

Reload. Or, if you want to gamble on your game progress - respec.

You shouldn't have to reload. Information pertinent to playing the game should be available in game.
Yeah, it's ridiculous. It seems there is actually an advantage to having seperate spell books which is that you get more spell slots in total. But that's complete shit compared to combining and adding the caster levels together.

Why only angel/lich can merge spellbook anyway? Why not trickster? Is there any official explanation?

I'm currently a level 10 scroll savant, I've already got everything I need from this class but I'm unsure on how to proceed. Any suggestions?
