Dear god no.. This is was done to death in Pillars 1 and strikingly similar themes was done to death by older Obsidian games. Mask of the Betrayer etc.
I am doing the side quest where you find an island full of undead and Vampires. I am at the top of the Summit but no matter what I do I could not make a deal with Menzzango the vampire. You can propose a deal to get an undead army and then afterwards you shoot him down anyway which is really stupid. Is this a bug or is there a prerequisite that is hidden? I am playing an evil bleak walker maxed cruel and aggressiveness.
