those promises don’t constrain them in any way other than PR. They can promise anything they like and are completely free to do whatever they want after that
Mandatory Dishonored 1 and 2 recommendation, but Prey is also very good
The game doesn’t really want you to spare enemies. It’s just that there are 3 different ways to play the game and 3 different flavors of the story : low, mid and high chaos. I think you should feel free to massacre everyone, and then maybe start over a new game and try lower chaos !
Same here with Vivaldi.
the witcher 3 is great It shows short sentences but Geralt doesn’t exactly say that and usually develops a little more. If you are impatient, you can choose a simple sentence and skip the talking without losing the general meaning. You can also listen to the whole thing.
