Why the fuck can a Mage Elis still not do anything even half as dope as this man.
LET ME BURN (elven) FORESTS TO THE GROUND.
God, the MILFs in this game are so elite...

Because it will trivialize a lot of the content in his path, requiring the other paths to have huge differences to make up for it.Why the fuck can a Mage Elis still not do anything even half as dope as this man.

Then what is the point of even giving the option to have him be a Mage. If he's never going to be able to do anything that a mage can. Again, as I've said before. It just feels like by far the most wasted class when in comparison to the other two.

So... She burned our wife as she promised?
...or we haven't been given the chance to kill them YET.
Snakes are very important characters in the plot.
If one snake is definitely Cass, then there's a chance the others are Mother or Elin.
We just haven't been given the chance to kill them YET.
And yes, Alaina could be considered a snake; her influence on the plot is overmuch.
Conrad is definitely not a snake, simply because his plot significance is less than that of Cass and Alaina. He clearly acts as a "catch-up" for Alaina's ALREADY accomplished plot deeds.

We saw the wives in visions after the protagonist's children had grown up.
Filipis I played your remastered version for a few minutes. Disclaimer:
So far I noticed the following errors or things I'd state differently:
- English is not my first language, so take whatever I say with a pinch of salt
- I don't understand a single word of Russian, so I can't compare your English version to the original in Russian.

Bookworm is powerless neophite with both magik and the sword - useless in all departments where his mom, his real dad and his siblings excel. Yet a lot of players choose it for the perks of the companions he gets on that path.
Full elven princess mom is OP for many a very specific reason - go read Lord of the rings and see how old and OP Galadriel is, if you never bothered to watch the two trilogies of movies - or the girl boss Amazon version to put you in your place.

I gave you an answer on why he can't be op like that. I do not have an answer of why he couldn't have other features
I am playing mage myself, but you may be right about that.

Oh I'm aware of the power of the girlboss archetype. It's just that I still expect a male half-elven mage, to at least be able to match the power level of a level 3 wizard. But my boi Elis, doesn't seem to really do shit as a mage.
Oh sorry, It was more a thought I had out loud. I wasn't actually expecting you to answer. It's just that it makes me rather sad as I usually pick the Wizard/Mage role in games. But the Mage in this one just seems rather pointless if you think about it.
Warrior gets a bunch of extra scenes and can generally come across as a boss bitch.
Bookworm has even more unique content Vampire guardian anyone? and special scenes, like the extra stuff with Lia. And just generally really shows off an Elis with brains.
Whereas Mage Elis does what? Has some special portal adventures every now and again, and has like 1 or 2 couple of things with Elin? Big Sad...

Same, I always, always pick the wizard/sorcerer class in pretty much any game or adventure.
Thing is these are kind of pointless? I have 0 idea what are they supposed to do and I have always felt them totally out of place.

Yeah the paths really aren't balanced well at all, which sucks. Like bookworm gets a decent bit more Lia, but I don't want to play bookworm, so I already am sad I am missing many Lia scenes cause of stupid class system.Warrior gets a bunch of extra scenes and can generally come across as a boss bitch.

I honestly hope going forward he kind of just forgets the classes for the most part, or find a way we get other skills in those paths, so we can just do a bit of all.
Cause if dev isn't going to give equal treatment to the paths, might as well change in some way or pretty much forget them all together for most part.
And with us entering chapter 2, could be a solid soft reset to just focus on choices and other things being the branching rather than classes that are unbalanced and unfar.

My friends are almost always the type to pick the fighters/rangers/barbarian archtype, and just want to smack things...So it works out well for me. As somebody has to do the CC and AOE damage.
Yeah I love this game. But I'm really not sure what the overall plan and payoff is for all this mage portal stuff. It does indeed feel really out of place, and like something that could just be dropped and replaced in favour of getting some different kind of content with the mage. Or tbh, maybe just finding some way to do away with the class system in CH2 entirely.
This game has enough branching without having a class system tbh. LM could maybe even swap it for a 'stat system' instead. Like maybe something they use in ORS. But just have it as Brawn, Intelligence and Wisdom or something. And maybe we can get a few extra points to start with depending on which we chilhood focus we pick for Elis.
Just an idea.

haha I always tend to pick the wizard / sorcerer and try to make them into a hybrid of a sort magic + a good melee fighter like some kind of jedi. But sadly battlemages / sell swords rarely work out how I imagine it. However kind of works in this story just need to get better at the magic part.

It is very, very game dependent. Skyrim, for example, just grab a fucking bow until I become Vampire Lord. Then it's happy hour!

haha that game I try do everything if I even make it past the greybeards with my 300+ mods. but yeah it is very game dependent if you can do that kind of build or not in a way I like.
I still think this is Alaina's fault, she probably botched the MC's magic education on purpose so he wouldn't become too powerful to the point where he could surpass her. Elin is also half elf but has a power level as great as her mother, perhaps even higher considering her portal shenanigans, because she had a good education at the mage tower. Hmmm, wonder if Lia also would be a powerhouse if it wasn't for her disease, she must have some dormant powers at least...Oh I'm aware of the power of the girlboss archetype.

The story would be amazing if we could take Valeria as a concubine it would make the family conflict escalate and become even more thrilling

We can actually think of it for a little more than a minute and actually recognize MC did not have mage training for most of his life and he was a drunk manwhore for most of his life - no way in all realities this kind of disdain for both magik and brains can take him to a better place. All MC got was melee rehearsal where his guide beat him up and the ways of his lands - he is groomed to return to court and royal heir life awaits him - so actual Merlin/Gandalf like devotion to the arts is outta his wheel house.
As opposed to her bieng the cum dump any time anywhere, while having full blooded and half blooded elves in the family rooting for her?
