stineford pond, interact with everything, if i remember correctly you need to circumnavigate the pond and fight the corrupt ingredient, just after him you can find the leave.
they missed only two shard, the one taken by mestan and the one recovered by fuzkao.
Torturing the fucklord does provide a lesson to Wendis and the fucklord himself. Wendis comes to the realization that this isn't what she wanted and what she really wants is to prevent the acts the fucklord did before they happened. The fucklord learns of all the suffering he has inflicted on others though Its gruesome. Also allowing the torture completely destroys him which may prevent something or maybe even help his harem members heal. This is defiantly a morally grey question and your reasoning is just as valid as anyone's else and like the wiki said there may be conquences for doing that. The reason I allowed the torture is because you cant save everyone and I have to pick my battles and im not willing to fight for a person that has caused so much suffering
Worth noting that in a poll on the old wiki 9% of respondents said they chose not to allow the torture because they expected it to have penalties later on. Right now torture looks like it comes with a strictly better reward, but we've seen examples before of 'evil' choices that looked like all upside in the moment and were later revealed to not be so.
i don't think is one of the cardinal "moral" choices. the big "moral choices" in the game (whore qum, varia rape) are question in the little girl last talk. estaven toture no.
"Vast majority of those fragments" Yes he has, but my point is that he hasn't gotten them all. He missed two in Mestan in Fukuzo if not more. And those are the significant pieces, if you recall Tertia said there was once an era where the shards were split in literally 1000s of tiny small pieces. It could be parts of fucklords massive shard was chipped off to such a degree, and there really would be way of finding them then. And Ginista still did SOMETHING to the shards she had, like I said, 'destroyed or banished' either way its gone and we dont know where or how to get it.
it's not a moral choice per se. but a piece in the frame of the use of trin power. the little girl talk start with a question about trin.
Her question about Trin has nothing to do with this specific use of Trin's power. My point was there have been times where an 'evil' choice at first looked like it had only positive consequences but later turned out to have negative ones that weren't known for multiple updates. And thus it is possible the game will punish us for torturing Estaven.
don't think there are realy evil choices in this game. there are some moral dilemmas, and a lot of gray areas.
Yes, Act 1 is fully illustrated and a few scenes further.
my continuation of the theory
Looks like, yes. Definitely keep some saves once you get to chapter 5 (possibly earlier, but nowhere near required) since there's a lot up in the air later on.
the later updates are mostly investment-free. i think up the erosian invasion (included) can be "finalized". starting with the last chapter 4 investment cycle everything is subject to change. the only real change before is shift the DK action during the war from "defend" to "appearence" for a free +2 arclent acceptance.
