I got to say, there isn't much presented about the setting at all. I know some stuff from this forum, but so far nobody has told me why all these demon kind are running around. It also seems my character knows a lot more than I do. I'm just a few hours into the game, but it feels like I know nothing about the world.

That's it, Swen , you're an ass, and your designers are twice the asses.

My Paladin sees two demonic spawn captured his companion and rushes to fulfill his oath. What does he get when he rightfully dispatches the demons?
That's what I was talking about actually. Did you use a skill that would make you lie? Either way, Froggie is meant to be kinda evil, maybe that's the issue.
Lie? I attacked them on sight shouting "Deus Vult". :lol:

Yeah I think whatever deity you're following might feel offended that you choose to kill people who hadn't attacked you *and* protect a possibly evil-aligned character just for your own personal gain. As white people say, "yikes!".

Does the steam version have DRMs? (yes some steam games don't have a drm, not even the basic steam drm)

Finny, Tieflings changed alignments multiple times through D&D versions.

This guy reviews the game after finishing it already (disclaimer: he got a review copy 5 days before release and receives perks/early game releases/etc. from game publisher)

With evil I meant Froggy. Btw, I redid the sequence and you have to avoid unnecessary bloodshed. So if you follow the option tagged with Paladin, which is a rather easy Persuasion check, you'll be fine.

Why do cutscenes still have a watermark? I can accept it for EA, not a supposedly finished game.

Overall everything else "feels" much more polished, thoughever. Ignoring some minor graphics bugs that I couldn't even manage to replicate, bits of debris (that are probably meant to despawn) clipping through models and so on.
