Not to undermine or discourage you it’s just my frustration, but it is already feeling I Will play the last book when I’m 50 and I’m 24 now. That’s if there wouldn’t be additional books like the next book that happened during this second book. And I love this game so much I would wait till then too. The pun is that I think my own country will accomplish a rebellion, sooner than mine in XoR would. 
And I don’t think to available 3rd path that has been already written, adding 3 years to this book. As you only availabling what is there. It won’t add much new words and work. It’s only additional to readers as it would become lot more words to read. And for it being hard to have a perfect playthrough ,wouldn’t that get that much easier, as it’s still really hard to choose between 6 factions even in 3 .
And the replaybility wouldn’t get hurt as we HAVE a lot of possibilities in just pairing our choices not mentioning all book 1 different paths that continued to impact all paths differently or all different xaos and sojourn different paths. Like if you go noble merchant you get some different scenes as they accompany each other differently, as yeoman and merchants would and your stats would differentiate them in parallel of your book one choices. I couldn’t do anything more than only asking of you to please consider this. I think it would make the experience really better.
I have also suggested a good way to even lower the difficulty and work for adding this too, by the 3rd path be only Maurs as it’s the most obvious and logical faction that everyone would spend time with. As I said it would be strange to live and work and dine with them and never talk to them. For me, thats the best pace and I couldn’t believe that it would be too much for most XoR players.
Edit: I should add no one will ever fill satisfaction by one playthrough as story could play a lot different scenarios and those would mount up in each new game and each scenario would have different apeals. So yeah If I were you I wouldn’t fear replaybility of this giant story.
I don’t know if the game is broken for me or what but I never saw it. Will it only show on cha3?
As I said I saw that the best stat to almost pass all checks in irduin. Specially if you are a helot, and acting as a office holder
Actually I don’t understand. Cause I did com 2 and it couldn’t pass even as a guard still. If I understand you correctly you mean com 2 should act like a tutor for example? As I remember that tutoring had a mention of not carrying books and, Still cause Mc couldn’t suggest a book name, and that who he worked for last ,it raised sus.
I think it’s best to wait for stat balancing and then see what the experience would become.
What I started this discussion for was exactly that cha2 isn’t adding that pass. So the real soft skill here is only considered as int2. As I said it needs waiting till more worked out stats in later updates.
