                  @katbamkapow (this makes me feel better about myself as a game developer, tbh)

                for this game, I am roleplaying as an Emily Kaldwin who technically knows all the moves, but sometimes gets a bit flustered and kills people

              sorry, guard just doing his reports who i choked (and was killed when i dropped a bottle of rum and it broke and then it caught fire oh no)

            Real talk : Emily is quite bad at being Empress. This whole mess could have been avoided if she had a halfway decent spymaster. Or allies.

          So I hopped up onto a balcony railing, and I spotted a guard. So I hid behind a barrel - not great, but got me out of line of sight for now.

        The guard approached another woman (checked with my reticule, and yes, she was a civilian). Scripted conversation unspools...

      They know each other: Guard is pressuring the civilian into stealing for her. 👎 Because she has a plan for them to run away together 👍

    Which is a great little "hey, these guards you've been seeing as obstacles are people, and if you're killing them you should feel bad" bit

      Finish talking, guard walks away… and spots me, because I'm just crouched behind a barrel this whole time. Whoops. Let's be non-lethal here?

        uh, and then in the confusion I end up grabbing the civilian and start choking her out… and the guard fires at me. Brief bit of swordplay…

          and I'm left looking at an unconscious guard, and her dead… friend? lover? sorry you killed them maybe i should reload
