BUT there's this one npc that's been getting on my nerves, so I send him into the woods where he gets eaten by wolves. Am I branded as evil now, despite doing good overall.

And then specifically on the topic of sexual stuff, because that's always lotta fun in games: You said you can romance anyone, but I've read there's only a handful of romances, for straight male players there's only 2 female options in the game. So what did you mean. And generally speaking, how sexually mischievous can I be in this game. Can I hit on two women at the same time and talk my way into a threesome. Stuff lik that.

If you can kill off party members, can you recruit new ones. Or is that basically turning the game into ultra hard-mode, lol.

Thanks for your answers. I'm about 10 hours from finishing AC Valhalla, then I'll probably get this game.
There's no morality scale. None. This is D&D 5E, alignments are gone. If you do one quest "good" and the next quest "evil," the whole world does not know. Someone might remember what you've done though, but that's because they were affected by it. The main plotlines, kinda, but it'll be pretty obvious why, what you did, and who you sided with; they are big main quests for a reason, but even then you are not locked in.

That said, if you play paladin, follow your oath. The oath doesn't care if you're evil or good. The companion who is a paladin by default is evil.

Everyone is available for romancing. There's three women and three men. There is an additional man and additional woman, but they cannot both join your party. Again, you'll figure out why. If you pick one of the Origin characters to play as, you obviously cannot romance yourself. One person is into polyamory, ain't gonna tell you who, spoil it for yourself if you want, but that's your loss. Otherwise, try it and find out.
Two additional companions on top of all those are not romanceable, and acquired much later.

There are customizable hirelings in case you need to replace party members. If you play The Dark Urge, you will likely need to use them.
