I am just on the way to the city now (second playthrough, but the first ended at an earlier point due to my shitty choices lol), and I’ve made maybe half the foes I could talk to just do themselves in. Although, technically, one of those didn’t take and I still had a big fight to deal with…

its a bit too easy tho

me: enter a camp

enemy: “GUARDS!! show your face!!!imma eat your guts”

rolls deception

enemy : “yoo my N come here let me hug you”
