wrathoranos Posted November 22, 2011 Share Posted November 22, 2011 I just started playing last night and ended up in the first little town near the river. I made the mistake of killing a chicken in town and now the population is on a murderous rampage. I couldn't talk them out of their insanity and I couldn't subdue them either. They would "pretend" to yield and limp away a few feet, then come right back at me for more. I ended up killing two questgivers while I was in retreat and ended up failing both quests and the town is still hostile. So first off, I killed a chicken. Is homicide the default reaction of all NPCs for such a piddly, stupid little misstep? Second, is there a way to chill them the hell out again? I certainly didn't want to start this character off with a bloodbath in the local hamlet, but that's the situation that was presented to me. Now, it looks like I have to restart the game because it's been irrevocably wrecked because I sacrificed the sacred poultry for my dinner plate. If the situation arises again, is there a way to deal with it that doesn't include large scale slaughter? Very irritating. It was just a damned chicken. I would have offered compensation if they'd have let me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bpestilence Posted November 22, 2011 Share Posted November 22, 2011 How could you have ruined your game? Just go to an autosave previous to your little chicken encounter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pushkatu Posted November 22, 2011 Share Posted November 22, 2011 Do NOT touch the chickens!! You have been warned! An entire family will starve to death thanks to you now, that chicken was all they had or so it seems. Towns are a lot more hostile than the wilderness, if you screw things up, even if it's about killing a chicken. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kamatsudash Posted November 22, 2011 Share Posted November 22, 2011 Actually, there is a way - although I'm not sure if it can be done after the fact. At the start of the game there are no guards in that first village. However at some point a few guards do get sent there (I won't say more.. as it's sorta spoilish, unless you want) - once the guards are there, if you accidentally kill a chicken.. they will approach and if you pay a fine or go to jail then that should clear the townsfolk of their hate of you. Whether this works if you've already angered the townsfolk before the guards get sent there, I don't know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meatcreature Posted November 22, 2011 Share Posted November 22, 2011 How funny. I just had the same experience. I found that I had to kill the cow too, because it was there. But seriously, nobody was around, and I wanted to see if I could get away with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HellsMaster Posted November 22, 2011 Share Posted November 22, 2011 I killed a goat inside a city (deer shaped icon one). God weren't they pissed off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
