Demon theme is a banger

I’ve noticed on my current playthrough that if you’re aiming for a melee golden dragon then all the bonuses you put into claw will be a great early game boost if using demon mythic path. Even though a demon is the absolute farthest thing from a golden dragon rp wise

One of the worst mythic paths thematically, especially once you commit to it in Act 5.

For one almost all of the intended Act 4 choices (Chaotic/Evil) were so idiotic and self-destrictive I went all the way from the far edge of Chaotic Neutral to True Neutral with a hint of Good, because Lawful choices were simply more beneficial.
Secondly committing to the path in Act 5 results in... an army of demons pouring into Drezen and slaughtering like half the mortals... after it already got overrun by demons a week earlier. I could understand those Shadow Demons who are my direct underlings and I could tell them to pipe it down (not that you get that option, since they turn into minotaur troops automatically), but not only I didn't give a go for this takeover (why would I even let omoxes and other such filthy creatures dirty my streets?), all of the guards are freaking demodands. Why? Demodands hate demons, why is my entire retinue made out of them?

In short? The "It is up to the Demon to decide whether to allow their inner beast to take control, or to fight it, chain it, and bring it to heel" line is a complete *******. There's no choice, you're always treated as if you were a mindless brute.

i'm about to lay staunton to rest and i figured i'd take a sneak peek at what the demon path has in store for me. sadly, it just seems to be a generic barbarian build, with very weak and pathetic low DC spells. kind of a bummer.

well look at that, another broken mythic path. this game is a joke. legend is broken, dragon is broken, and demon is broken. note to all demon wannabes, when you get to the abyss, seek the assassin's guild before doing ANYTHING! you will break your save file and lose your mythic level. until you get yozz to talk to you and give you the assassination contract, do not interact with vellexia at all. it's kind of spoilery, but if someone would have made note of it, i wouldn't have to completely replay the entire abyss section. i did every companion quest, every sidemission, and have nocticula's portal sitting open ready to venture out. now it's back to square one. don't do what i did and attempt to play "for fun." that's not how owlcat intended the game to be played.
