PBJam Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 Was wondering if you can attack NPCs? I know there are some that you kill as part of quests and such but can you just attack random innocent NPCs or butcher the whole town, etc?

Miquel93 Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 Yes, you can. We don't know how they've handled major characters though, so those involved in the critical path may or may not be killable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

morhilane Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 There is nothing related to the main story in the BB, it's all side content. Azarhal, Chanter and Keeper of Truth of the Obsidian Order of Eternity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The beta has nothing to do with the main plot... but you can kill quest NPC's, so that you can't complete quests Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bronzepoem Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 Most strange thing in beta was that，when you kill all the villagers outside，the villagers in the inn are still very kind to you. 1 Her mind is Tiffany-twisted, She got the Mercedes Benz She's got a lot of pretty, pretty boys, that she calls friends How they dance in the courtyard, sweet summer sweat.

bronzepoem Posted March 15, 2015 Share Posted March 15, 2015 (edited) And when the villagers were attacked,the only response was attack back,even a poor grandpa.I think crying, running away,asking for help will be more realistic response.

TheisEjsing Posted March 15, 2015 Share Posted March 15, 2015 BAdler has stated that you can kill every character in the game, and there is, as far as he remembered at the time, one NPC which is so important to the crit path, that you can't complete it if that NPC dies, but that you can kill him/her/it anyways.

You're free to do it, but i think that essential characters being unkillable is just cheesy. I like the way PoE handles this.

Lephys Posted March 15, 2015 Share Posted March 15, 2015 (edited) well anyway isnt there a reputation system? Sure, but who's going to spread your reputation if no one's left alive? Edited March 15, 2015 by Lephys 1 Should we not start with some Ipelagos, or at least some Greater Ipelagos, before tackling a named Arch Ipelago? 6_u Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bronzepoem Posted March 15, 2015 Share Posted March 15, 2015 well anyway isnt there a reputation system? Yes,there is.But maybe it's not finished or it only influence important NPCs, in the Beta I almost can't feel it. When your reputation in Dryford is "horrible",the innkeeper still support you food and room kindly and the bard still sing to you.
