I feel like I’m losing my damn mind. I would’ve reloaded (or literally restarted the entire game) if I realized how much content a single damn skill check less than 30 minutes in would make me miss by failing. I feel like I’ve been nearly everywhere in Act 1. Where the fuck is he? Did I miss him? I’m like 30 hours in now. I don’t want to restart the game.
Yeah, all I’m seeing are shitty gaming journalism articles saying maybe in Act 2 you’ll see him because of his companion quest being relevant there. I also saw some random Redditor say Act 3 with zero context added.
I feel I might know what annoying trait you’re talking about. I’ve seen some magic items that say something about being able to be consumed by Gale. Which is even funnier if he’s gone forever.
I really am enjoying the game, but it bugs me when folks say it is perfect.
