Honestly, the fact that you can kill so many recruitable units but can't put him to the sword after his literal child trafficking is one of the biggest fumbled bags of the game.
Yeah I don't quite understand some of the game's logic for antagonists. There are antagonists like him who somehow live but you can't recruit the guy from Cornia who was trying to store food for any potential famine. It's weird.
Difference being those examples were competent, generally liked or understood by the populace they ruled over, and were too stoic to admit fault. Beaumont, on the other hand, is pretty much an incompetent blowhard. Not to downplay the whole child slavery angle, of course, but he failed at that pretty spectacularly, then immediately cowed to save his own neck, with a little prodding from his pal. Frankly speaking, he's not worth the rust on the blade, y'know?
Gammel and beaumont can’t be unalived. But you can unalive jeremy who at least only sent out mercenaries who knew what they were getting into. Melisandre and colm who were forced to work for zenoira to keep their family’s legacy. Bryce who is basically robinhood. Mordon who was just protecting his town Mandrin who we found out was bluffing about unaliving sharon.
@@Albert-P27 but if you don’t, he sells elf children as S slaves. Having an ailing sister doesn’t excuse his crimes. I like him as a character, but find it strange that he gets a free pass over actual noble people like mordon and bryce.
I see what you mean. Yeah it doesn't excuse the children enslavement, but it's not like we let the man just roam free afterward. The dude's men called for a surrender and had to watch over the very kids he tried to sell. It's either labor or death at this point for Beau's men, and I don't blame for wanting to do the former.

@@RyanVonAegirhonestly I just wished I could use the rat before post game
@@RyanVonAegirI thought it was implied he was hoarding the food for himself.
“Oh nonono the child slavery? That was just a goof, it was just for laughs haha why aren’t you laughing?”

Gammel it's not that bad, if you recruit it he changes for good.

@@Albert-P27if you let Gamel live, he will let very bad people have a “second chance” later.
They created a hateable character and forced you to experience him. When a movie does this, you love it.
I see what you mean.
