What I love about BG3 is that there are no wrong decisions. Sure, every decision has a ramification, but nothing will break the game. You get the end you deserve based on the choices that you make along the way.
There is that, but I feel the changes with Minthara count; I'd have liked to have had her as a companion, but I'd already killed her and was multiple hours into act 2 before the patch allowing her to be saved and recruited into any party was released.
I mean, typically killing a character means they can't join your party. How were you expecting to recruit her if you killed her? I'm actually doing my first fully evil durge playthrough right now and I'm looking forward to act two when I can recruit her.
Because I was playing a good character, which meant that if I wanted the tieflings to live then Minthara had to die. With the update, there is a canonical path for both the tieflings and Minthara to live.
Ah, I am not familiar with that update. But why would you want an evil character in your party if you're playing a good character?
Because I like having options, and I don't like missing out on plot or dialogue if I don't have to. She's an interesting character that I think would have good interactions with the rest of the party.
I'm about to move into act 2 on an evil playthrough, and I let her live, so I'm eager to recruit her for the first time. I killed her in my first two playthroughs.
