Believe me when as a politician I say: Everything can be said since it is said the right way. I do it all the time.

Of course there were, but I don't really like fishing.
Brofist to you!Nope. All brutal honesty. All the time.
I'm so lonely...
No retreat, no surrender!
I was reading the developer's faq and saw this:
The main story will be mostly linear with a few branches (for example THE Chapter 5 decision) and it will branch according to your relationship to the LI's where needed.
In general, I try to keep the branching as little as possible but as big as needed.
What decision on Chapter 5 is he refering to?

For me it wasn’t just the secrecy. If they had said “Your father an I are high ranking Masons” … I would have thought it was weird, but fine. It was the irresponsibility of their choices combined with how elaborate the ‘plot’ was.
Irresponsible because, given the rank of MC’s father - MC would have had a target on his back almost from birth but they didn’t feel it was important to warn him, train him or prepare him in any way until someone made an attempt on his life.
Elaborate as in - His childhood friend had known all along, and regardless of how the relationship evolved - had entered into the relationship to monitor him (not protect him) as an assignment. She had known about his parents since they were childhood friends, his work (at least the board) had also known so his adult life was basically a cage that had been built for him - his girlfriend (who was a crappy girlfriend anyway) was staged, as was his job. And I’m pretty sure that there is still important stuff about him that they aren’t telling him (Kajia and the parents). So definitely burned bridges - would like for them to have been more burned than they are. If I had my way I wouldn’t have spoken to Kajia again after she left MC’s parents house. I also would have quit the job.

Once had a GF say to me “Is this dress ugly or am I just fat” … I knew she liked the dress, she’d saved up for it … I just stood up, walked out the front door and came back 20 minutes later with flowers to apologize.
Valid. Especially if it's done in a way that feels like a test or a trap. Love "failing" those on purpose.

I still find it darkly amusing that Medb looks down on the MC for sparing a dangerous adversary... right up until it's her daughter at his mercy.
Sparing Finnabair is the obvious answer, but I guess he could also be referring to burning bridges with the MC's parents. Both are very likely to make a lasting impact.

Ironic, but not that weird. There may be people out there who think murder deserves the death penalty until it's their kid on trial.
I think it's burning bridges. I don't know how the Chapter 5 ends if you kill her. Will there be another pretext for war?

It's pretty short. The MC is arrested and detained for several weeks. Medb is irate and wants the MC killed, Ailill blames himself for inviting the MC. Mab drops by to interrogate the MC about the Templars but she only learns he knows nothing about them. Eventually the Alfar decide to ransom him (presumably to the Templars). The update ends as he is about to be shipped back.
I don't think there needs to be another pretext for war since the existing pretexts (whatever they turn out to be) are still there. And Finnabair's death will still be the spark since everyone assumes the MC is a Templar himself..
