well that is her actual job....you know...

Like crying you didn't get a bonus for doing the thing you're actually paid to do...

Ironically, on the love path she has to disobey a direct order and abandon her mission to do that job. In other words, her bosses are idiots. But we already knew that. :ROFLMAO:

Edit: To be clear, the fact that on the love path she does this goes a long way towards me deciding to give her another chance.

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?

I'm assuming regarding to kill or spare Finn.

I get what you're saying, but at the end of the day, I'm the one playing MC in my game, and make choices from my perspective and life experience.

It's interesting you choose the adoption example, because my best friend since elementary school found out they were adopted when they were a young adult. In fact, somehow I learned it before they did (my parents and my friend's parents are very close, so they probably let it slip one day in casual conversation). And the way my friend found out he was adopted was that I tried talking to him about it one day not realizing he didn't know.

He of course was very upset. But he sat down with his parents, talked it out, and was able to eventually reconcile. That was twenty years ago, and they still have a great relationship.

So I get where you're coming from, but I've a good bit of first and second-hand experience where working through the emotions and conflict has allowed people to repair and maintain relationships that have gone on to be some of the most meaningful. On the alternative path, had my friend or I simply burned those bridges, there's little chance they'd be there today as such a positive aspect of our lives.

Obviously this is not going to be the case for every circumstance like this, and I know that for many the emotional pain might make reconciliation impossible. But because their intent was noble, I choose for my MC to make the attempt.

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.

Some stuff you might overlook to get the most points for Medb:
- Kill (shoot) the mercenary when they try to kidnap you (+1 medb)

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?
