      What part exactly is a spoiler? That you can fight Raphael? Something that anyone can intuit the moment you meet the character. That the game comes in three acts? That the game has an ending?

        Basically everything including and past Gortach becoming the Duke. I’m in the beginning of Act 3 and had no idea there was a Raphael fight until your comment.

        Talking about plot points in the last act of the game, yes, is going to be a spoiler.

          I mentioned nothing about Gortach nor any plot points for the last act. Over-policing of ‘spoilers’ is getting pretty ridiculous.

            Sorry, I conflated your comment with the reply to yours which is full of spoilers.

            I still had no idea that there was a Raphael fight until you brought it up. Anything in Act 3 is pretty much a spoiler, since it only just came out on PS5 and a lot of folks won’t have gotten there yet. Just be a little more vague with the details if you don’t want to use tags. Not everyone has finished the game yet.

              I was as vague as I felt appropriate to express my opinions about the game.
