It was absolutely no surprise to me. Far from keep it hidden, OWI were calling the character ‘Steef’ and ‘the Steef’ long before they ever referred to him as ‘Stranger’ or ‘the Stranger’, back in the Inside Microsoft’s Xbox documentary. They even showed his bipedal and centaur forms next to each other in a split screen, making it very obvious from the start that they were one and the same. What’s more, Lorne says in the documentary something along the lines of ‘We wanted people to grow attached to the character before revealing what he really is,’ so we immediately figured that the character’s being a Steef would be hidden at the start of the game and revealed as a twist later on.

The funny thing was Lorne trying to get the surprise back on and telling everyone in the last interviews right before the release that the Stranger wasn't a Steef
Guess he wanted the fans to discover the story as it was intended too, but it was a bit too late
