Prologue - Did I miss out?

[Marison]

I just finished the prologue and I am a bit confused. Did I miss out on some content?

Out of the three of Rasputin's items, I was only able to analyse one. The other two still have the message "Dimension force too low" attached to them, even though I have the required skill level now. Is there some way to gain the insights from them still?

And how about the old crone in the prologue village? I was only able to find to of here available dialogue options, and then before I could talk to her again, the prologue was finished and I had to leave. What did I have to do, to find all dialogue with her?

Thanks for anyone who can enlighten me. :)

There are different paths through the prologue depending on where you spend your first upgrade point. You're not missing out, you're not supposed to get everything.

Yep, can confirm what Grace said... so in a sense you did "miss out", but it's by design, just as there are multiple ways for the prologue's final encounter to play out depending on whether or not, for one example, you manage to get the Wise Woman on your side and get her to come with you to the clearing.

I think the devs did it this way to ensure you get a slightly different experience on the prologue on your eventual second run, to make the "boring to repeat" prologue a little less so.

Does the game actually have large amounts of replayability with outcomes and story paths differing a lot?

Thanks for the quick replies. Now I am curious to see what happens, when I take the Wise Woman with me. :-D

I just visited a tarot reader and the text said that "the ending of your story isn't decided yet"... seems a pretty strong hint that there'll at least be multiple ending states, likely tied at the very least to your Pride stat.

I've also had dialogue locked with the text saying "because of your choices, this option isn't available", so the game does seem to track your behaviour at least for certain quests.

There at least 5 type of ending scene for that quest, depend on the the choice option you picked and discover
