First Murder...or "In the future attempted murder isn't a thing"

I mean, attempted murder is totally a thing since that's pretty much your justification for exiling him. I didn't find the reaction to be too out of line once I made the choice- what happens if you exonerate him?

He's turian, though. It's entirely possible that other species don't recognize attempted murder the way humans do (and maybe not all human societies do, either, I don't know). I played this quest during the trial and will soon be encountering this scene again in the current PT since I restarted...but I don't think he actually managed to hit the victim. All you have is the audio recording of him apologizing for killing his friend, but if he didn't even manage to injure him...is it even attempted murder anymore? More like...conspiracy to commit murder? (Or something like that?)

I kind of like this quest, honestly.

It's attempted murder. He actually shot at the guy. That he missed does not take away from the fact that he tried to commit murder. Fact is, if the guy can take a shot at his friend is he safe around people he likes less?

Eh, I let him go because it reflects the situation that his attempt to frag his lieutenant was due to the man leading them on a suicide charge. Also, I'm hoping to reincorporate the Exiles. Community service given the situation seemed fair.

We need everyone we can get and can't just exile them willy nilly.

Like I said, there's extenuating circumstances. The victim was about to lead them on a suicide charge.

It's a shame there isn't a third option to try him under attempted murder.

Just the latest in a long line of rpg murder quests, where no actual detective work is required on the players behalf. The whole thing was just scanning. 'member KOTOR when you had to question both suspects and actually work out the truth yourself.

I think it was pretty obvious that exiling him was just to save face for the director and the Initiative.

And I don't swing that way. I don't think attempted murder is an offense worthy of exile anyway. Or anything really.

I exiled his ass.
I'm glad this game doesn't give you 'obvious Paragon/Renegade' choices.

Eh, the legal system has no sway when you are operating at 10% capacity in a survival situation.

How does it correlate with actual choices though? All people with severe crimes could simply be frozen back until everything setlles down.

Speaking of Kadara rules, it would be nice if writers bothered to explain how currency works there. Everyone is supposed to be pay in credits, but where all these credits come from? Is anyone on Nexus gets paid in credits? Pays taxes? Do they just print it out of thin air or what?

I don't own the game. Curious why, if kadara is livable, the AI don't just take it over and settle everyone there.
