for now no outcome is tied to having a lot of ProN on hand [and outside join mercantile guild having a lot of ProN on hand do nothing]. but ALL game outcome are tied to hidden (or no so hidden) stats.
if i can reach everything [and don't mean a subjective evaluation, but the objective best result in every scenario] without whoring qum, the only gain in whoring her is more money, but the lose are permanent. so because that money isn't required, why i should choose to lose something without gaining anything?
this is the situation i call "
money for the sake of money", or in orcent word: "
But on the other hand, why do we acquire money, if not to eventually exchange it for abstract benefits?"
until the end of the game we don't know for sure the full effect of investment or other decision, but all this are obviously bad choice take them.
