About he gnome you supposed to rescue

[Estevan Valladares]

Anyone else got the will to simply release the breaks and let the gnome die after you see what happens at the end of that quest ?
Because sure as hell I do.
Every playthough after I just "let the bird fly".

We've all done it at least once.

Don't know yet what comes of him, I have always considered my playthrough over by the time I get to the actual city cause the FPS drops and stutters.

Does it continue at some point, might be worth it to just yeet him off into oblivion for fun.

He is super annoying so I always send him flying. Very ungrateful.

[Doomvora]

He's just lovesick man.

Yeah, if you're talking about the gnome attached on the mill, Barcus.
Actually most of characters you speak to in Act 1 have an impact afterwards.

for Barcus: you meet him multiple time, even to a point where he can be one of the most important allies

He bottom gay tho, you miss a bunch of gear if you didn't save him.

Wanna know what gets in my nerves ? Ofc Spoilers.
He is a bit of a "s-roll" if you know what I mean. I dislike him for that. Then you save him again a little time later, and he is still an s-roll. And you see that the guy he means to save is a bigger roll than he is. You meet them at Last Light Inn after you break people from the prison. Cool, good guy stuff. By my evil playthrough I was already killing him at the mill. But it is his "group" that stroke me wrong. They are a kind of "gnome mafia", and a really bad one. When you talk to the girl with the explosives, you get the "una bomber" feeling. (Watch that movie "Predestined", and you get the exact same feeling as the final "bad guy rant" rolls). Then I decided to go around reading about and I learned that in the game they seem to be such organization. A s-roll kabala, if you will.
But the worse, to me. When you get to blinded gnome, even in my evil playthrough I dont let Obelia die. It simply get to me, for reasons I know and reasons I dont, none matters, I just cant. And then, the gnomes want to kill the blinded gnome, even if he is the last one, blinded, shaken, broken. Like a Karlach moment, I dont care, he simply HAS TO DIE.

My first time i did it by accident, was very gratifying. When encountering that scene again in other play-through. I would turn it off talk to him then leave them there then turn on again. That's fun to as well.
