Do priests and paladins still have dispositions they like or dislike?

In PoE1 the power of some talents of priests and paladins depended on their dispositions.

e.g. kind wayfarers liked benelovent and passionate while they disliked cruel and deceptive.

 

In all versions of the beta I did not find any information about this, e.g. during character creation or in the character screen.

I assume so given that the dialogue options have disposition tags.

perhaps the bigger question is what impact dispositions have 'pon gameplay beyond dialog limits.  as kp notes, dialogs in the deadfire beta frequent have corresponding disposition tags.  one assumes there will be disposition thresholds for any number o' deadfire dialogs as there were in poe.  one might assume priests and paladins will again have gameplay affected by dispositions, but other than the ability to choose denominations and orders for templars, is unclear what such limits might be.  holy radiance remains a priestly ability, but to what degree do dispositions affect holy radiance... if at all?  similar, dispositions were particular important for pc paladins.  deep faith is now a talent with a flat modifier to all defenses.  does such mean disposition aligning no longer impacts paladin defenses as were the case in poe?  am also recalling developers mention o' dispositions in regards to companion and possible even factions, though to what degree a player can affect changes to the aforementioned is unclear. 

 

regardless, dispositions is in deadfire based 'pon dialog options and templar multi-class limits.  example: choose kind wayfarer during character creation results in eothas as the only priest option for a prospective templar.  if one checks the list o' templar possible combinations, the limitations is all based 'pon poe disposition conflicts.  

 

HA! Good Fun!

They seem to, but I cant find the info in the beta. F&C got more powerful for my crusader when I picked appropriate responses

    am not recalling seeing any change to faith and convictions/deep faith (+10/+15) based 'pon dialogue choices in the beta, but given how few such opportunities we have, we wouldn't expect change neither.

    Choices do affect your Faith and Conviction power. I played a Goldpact in beta and picking all stoic choices I get 1 additional defenses.

    good to know it is actual working.  am suspecting the dispositions is part o' the ui which is not yet available to us as yet.
