That's nearly 26 people who want some variation of Black out the Sky.. if you count the disparate votes.

Edit: and nearly 27 All Things Must Die?

Forfeiture in the lead in normal count with 22.

Someone check the math please, the votes are a mess.

Idk where you're getting these numbers from, for black out the sky
6+5+4+3+2+1=21
For all things must die
11+5+2+2+2+1=23

That's not even counting repeat votes where the same person voted for more than one version of a plan with one of these included. If you count that forfeiture has more votes.

For the future is a Black Sky vote so 21 +6 -right?

For the Future also has All Things Must Die +6 again

Like I said it's a mess. But yeah I see what you mean, multiple votes.. Better to just go with Forfeiture.

Edit: How do you do the new voting organization thing some quests do?
Edit: Nvm, it was by setting votes by tasks instead of blocks. And it would have only been useful if everyone voted by plans in this case..

Hm. At this rate, it seems as though Forfeiture is going to win. However, given there's still active voting and discussion going on, I'll hold off on the final tally for a while more.
 
I wouldn't be surprised if forefeiture has a hidden benefit, as has been speculated. That's probably one of the strongest reasons to vote for it, but even without I think it's the best option. This is our capstone fealty perk, it should be strong, but they all give dubious benefit at great cost. It just seems strange to me that one of the capstone benefits is to grab another perk we've already been offered, but by sacrificing power. It's strictly a worse perk, with the only benefit that we can take it more than once.

Remembering nightmares has the potential to mind break us, and the benefit isn't even guaranteed. We don't know how much information we'll be given or if it will even be relevant short or long term.

Becoming the incarnation of rational justice is just not a pro. We sacrifice everything about our character to become a force of nature, and we don't even get a mechanical benefit out of it. It's like the inner circle chalice problem where we sacrifice autonomy, but we don't even get anything out of it.

Something about these just seem off. Why are these capstone perks worse than any of our previous fealty perks. It makes me think there's something to the theory forfeiture is the correct path. "Don't pick anything here."
 
It is irrational to choose confiscation. We can learn about the conspiracy much earlier, much earlier and, accordingly, begin to prepare for the danger so that it does not bite us. Moreover, 3 points of mental health is a small amount, remember, at one of the elections of the first chapters, we were offered five points of mental fortitude?
If it was such an important parameter that the loss of points would significantly affect Harry, then we simply would not have been offered such a number of points at the initial stage of the game.
 
@GenericName

The negatives are just to balance out things, I think. The choice was offered here because it's a major capstone in Harry's life. Convocation. An event we should have spent preparing for at least half the time we were here, but ignored all the quest prompts. We didn't we independently explore either with creative write-ins. In the final hour do we really want to dive in blind and potentially lose the other Chosen, even if Harry survives?

All Things Must Die is a last moment hail mary that has mental cost of being harrowed by the memories. Because we have to earn it, instead of just skating by. We already got a major power up last update, the quest has to be kept balanced.


This is the end also isn't as bad as people are making it to be. It's been explicitly said that it won't make Harry Lawful Dumb. It won't stop us from being sneaky or using Dark Arts if it's for the greater good. Most importantly, everyone would be able to perfectly trust our word and intent. Even when dealing with our enemies they would be inclined to believe us. That is such a boon.


Black Skies is the most straight forward and safest of the options. Especially with Magicka Primeval there really doesn't seem to be any downsides. Also we don't have any other Patronus leads. It seems such a waste to not at least invest on this.

Since we got Hermetic Singularity, our present Magic Power is 6.499 - Magicka Primeval would cost .5, and grant either .6 or .6499, depending on which order they apply in - it's very much worth it.
Also, Hardship seems like the appropriate perk for surviving and benefiting from the nightmares. I could be persuaded to swap it with From You, 6,000 Years Ago, however.
Edit: If this is the endgame, the latter is by far the better option.

-[X] This Is The End
-[X] Black Out The Sky
--[X] From You, 6,000 Years Ago
-[X] Black Out The Sky
--[X] Magicka Primeval
-[X] All Things Must Die
