      I love Volition. It actually has a few big failures (as in, to help Harry, not just rolls) in the game, such as when you're trying to pitch art exhibition titles to Mega Rich Light-Bending Guy. Volition is just too averse to bullshit to come up with good names and if you listen to it, you'll be rejected and miss out on big money. You need Conceptualization for that 😉

    I love how volition is so convinced that it's right after this that it's almost compromised in the other direction. Being 100% sure that Klaasje lied about everything and that you should arrest her

    • @ShukusatsuDirk
      @ShukusatsuDirk 11 หลายเดือนก่อน +84

      I think volition is just trying to protect a wounded heart. The last time Harry trusted a wömen there was a lot of emotional damage being done. I think that's why it might be overprotective now.

      @@excalibur2772 I mean, she didn't. If you turn her in, a high Shivers check, which never lies, heavily implies that she dies in custody, and she's objectively not guilty of the murder. She lied about some stuff, but not about being hunted.

      @excalibur2772 11 หลายเดือนก่อน +11

      @coolguyjki I mean obviously she told the truth at times but Volition isn't wrong in saying she essentially lied about everything about her identity. It's clear she is being hunted but "innocence" is a little much to just accept

    • @coolguyjki
      @coolguyjki 11 หลายเดือนก่อน +32

      @@excalibur2772 In all fairness, I don't think she's necessarily innocent either, but she's innocent of the crime we're investigating and that's what matters. Think about it this way -- suspicion that she may have committed other crimes is fair, but it's not a justification for arrest, and lying about who you are isn't what I'd call probable cause. Industrial Espionage and potentially sabotage can be pretty severe crimes, but if it's between a death sentence and letting her go, I think mercy is preferable, whether she's a pretty girl or not.

    One aspect of the skill system that was so cool was that having super high points in one skill or another would accentuate the more negative qualities of that skill. there were a couple instances where having high encyclopedia just made harry into a know it all dick and it wasn’t helpful.
