The cast is sheer lunacy by itself, but Bangar specifically blows my mind. The amount of nuance and subtext his voice actor puts into this words is world class. I've been on the edge of my f*cking seat from start to finish.

Kas too, or at the very least the horrors have finally gotten to her.

More that, yes. More to come.

I was ready to cringe at mention of them being a couple, yet again, but there was not even a hint in this episode, i'm really happy if we are going to see them as characters again, specially marjory as canthan Noir detective

Yeah, one thing we came to realize as we were contemplating how to move forward with them was that we had spent too much time thinking of them as a couple and didn’t understand them well enough as individuals yet, which needed to come first. So we’ve nailed down some character arc stuff for each of them that you’ll see play out over the course of the saga.

I think it's because of Aurene's death everyone has gotten more adult, and Jory and Kas reflect that - they have grown up from teenagers to young adults.That's how I interpreted it.

Definitely true, although there’s more to it as well. (See my initial comment above for a taste of that.)

This is probably my biggest annoyance with all games. I completely understand why it happens as you are syncing up animations and different audio but it is so massively immersion breaking and still happens in almost every game released. Glad to hear they made some nice improvements with that here.

I think a lot of devs don’t realize how important timing is to dialogue playing effectively. Our tools folks have made some optimizations to our implementation tool to give us more control over that, and hopefully over the last few episodes those improvements are being felt.
