Yeah, even fit, a female MC should not be able to win the majority of her fights when assaulted. Worth comparing to Haven, where you don't succeed through brute force, but through sneakiness.
It should be worth
trying, and high fitness should certainly improve chances, but even high fitness should clock in at 1/4 to 1/2 of fights, assuming you're not being assaulted by several people at once, which should tank your chances.
It's a dangerous world, after all.
(Barring the use of pepper spray of course, which should and does near-guarantee wins against single assailants, and should significantly increase chances against multiple assailants)
This being said, I absolutely get the idea that Sammy should be able to avoid assaults. But a solution more elegant than 'Action Girl' is desirable. E.g. high int might give a spot check warning that allows her to take a different route/sneak away before an assault happens (but costs time she may not have). High fitness simply lets her run for it (high heels negate this option).
Though no idea how this could be implemented without excessive work being put in.
The Bambi perk is a reasonable compromise for the time being, I suppose.
Anyway, giving it a go now...
- Male Intro: Emilie refers to your 'Gorilla' even if the look you picked didn't include pubic hair :v
- I do like Emilie's overall attitude, though
- the new background in the mall is certainly nice
- later, when Emilie leaves Sammy alone and Sammy checks out her body, she again refers to her pubic hair that's not actually there :v
