Are bandits universally evil? I just murderized and entire encampment of bandits by leading a group of mi-gos towards them first for the softening. And then promptly shot in the back a fleeing bandit. Could I have talked to them? I’ve never interacted with bandits before but are they more like scavengers than evil individuals that will mug/kill other humans?
It might have been that your character “attacked” an npc in a neutral stance. If I don’t feel like dealing with an npc when they tell me to wait, i would run away, or if they try and mug pull out a weapon and wait for them to attack first to change their behaviour to aggressive… there is a chance that the npc runs away too although don’t see that as much… probably not “scary” enough
