This is a cool image, is taking people hostage like the thiefy fellow on the left appears to be doing going to be a thing? Perhaps you can interrogate guards or nobles for useful information and shake them down for money, in a way that ties into your intimidation skill?
Could a non-lethal option for sneak attacks be a thing, in a manner similar to the sap from the Thief games?
Will there be organized crime in the game?
that art’s mainly to attract people who are afraid of change and progress. so concept of “classes” and smiling dude being all cool is there.
don’t know about hostage taking. would be kind of cool if you could do that though, kind of like in red dead redemption.
It would be nice if you could take a vassal/liege/knight hostage to escape from a particularly nasty situation or threaten to gut them to gain access to valuables and/or unlocks.
if you’re taking a lord hostage, you’re not escaping.
I’ll take the bait … why not? It all depends on the circumstances and location.
