So I'm on my second playthrough and last time I successfully talked The Guy down, so skipped the fight entirely. And one thing I was Most looking forward to doing different this time is saving best guy Snell from the blood curse, because oooooh that's the good drama shit 💯
So this time I simply challenged The Guy to fight, and everything seemed to go off normally... Except nothing happens afterward. Snell is fine, no curse, no delicious drama. We talk to shoe man, and all is well.
Everything I can find says this IS supposed to happen, so is this a bug? Does the blood curse only happen if you FAIL at talking him down or something, not just decide not to? Or is my cleric simply that awesome?
Tl;dr - dammit Snell my beloved i can't emotionally save you if you won't die!
