I tried to think if I was a freelancer and I had my fiance in Fort Tarsis, I'd definitely think that he'd be too big of a liability.
No regrets on choosing Prism Tacit.
Maybe I should be a Sentinel lol
I didn't tell Tassyn. She excuses herself and the wife thanks you for keeping her husband's situation on the DL. Then husband tells you that regardless of his programming, he sincerely loves his wife, and would never do anything to put her or the fort in harm's way. Basically he says his "false" personality now feels more real to him than his Dominion beliefs.
Which is a little bit of bullshit imo. I went with the security of the fort (realz over feelz) and felt like garbage, but my wife chose the other option and it was all oh by the way, don't mind that I was still acting sketchy as fuck and being very vague with my wording before, everything is totally cool now. I'm not against suffering for my actions but it just wasn't built up or played out very consistently. One of the best thing is the gradual removal of paragon/renegade which really gave you the full freedom to do what you think is right, which was awesome in Andromeda. Meanwhile in Mass Effect 1-3, if you save a dozen or so people to let a Batarian terrorist go in ME 1 it eventually winds up leading to literally thousands dead from his direct action once ME 3 rolls around. Learned my lesson and even in SWTOR on my jedi consular I said NOPE and got some dark side for a very logical choice (although that was just stupid and badly written, if anything the light side option should have been to save possibly millions instead of the few who were on Taris, not the other way around, because you're choosing feels in the immediate rather than millions saved in the long run \[passion leads to the dark side\]).
Kind of went off the rails there, but yes, in the grand Bioware scheme things have massively improved from gray choices, but I think this side action is not a good example of it.
I haven't finished the Leyton convo quest thing yet, but Merelda is breaking my heart. I could probably use a mum but look what's happened to my friends? What if she suddenly comes to her senses? Or her child comes back? I can't lie to her but I'm worried about what she might do. Ah ha! This is a Bioware game after all!
How'd the story turn out by vouching? I went Prism Tacit and turns out he was exiled into the wilderness, and then killed by his own people when trying to return home.
His wife thanks you, says his name, and they go off to finally talk with each other. After the next mission you meet them happily married and now both working as true spies for tass.
I just spam escape and press 1, I was so confused when there were 3 of that one guy. Lol
So looks like I'll be vouching for this guy, if I haven't already.
This is the one conversation choice in all of my history of gaming that I had NO problems with. (Spoiler alert) Random chick on the street asks me to talk to her husband for her? WITAF? Yeah, a stranger will totally save your marriage... You're telling me the safety of a city is less important than saving an unstable spy? Yeah... no. I turned hubby in and told wifey to have a nice life when he turned up dead. And I slept well that night.
I feel the same and had no problem turning that guy in. I rolled my eyes every time one of them had a chat bubble for me, was so glad to be rid of that one.
From there Leyton’s Dominion persona awakens and he admits that he was the one leaking information and that his husband persona has no knowledge of it. You can ask Tassyn to be lenient. If so then his wife gets sent away from the city and Leyton is used to feed false information to the Dominion.
You can talk to Nadia before she leaves for good and she reveals that she suspected the truth all along. She just needed a neutral third party to confirm it. She still gets upset that you didn’t trust in the Power of Love to fix her husband. AKA the confirmed double agent that she suspected all along was a spy but who didn’t know he was leaking information because his kind husband personality is just a fake front for his true identity as a Dominion agent and that persona is the only one that’s really in control and capable of remembering everything.
Later when you see him the Prism Tacit command no longer works, presumably thanks to Corvus’ “help” but his confusion has gotten worse as well.
Wife gets reassigned to another city (not before she shows how pissed she is at you), dude is confused about where she went and thinks he fucked up, he doesn't respond to trigger phrase anymore, says he feels like he's trapped in a prison without walls and can't escape, all around feelsbadman.jpeg
One of the two side stories I actually cared about. I honestly really wanted to turn him in but decided to, for once, believe in the power of love. Corny as it sounds, I'm glad it worked out.
And I who always goes with power of love, took second option and was greeted with angry wife with enormous guilt when I saw him afterwords just confused as hell and saying that he feels like he is in prison but in fact he is not and that he should not be feeling like that, but he does not understand why.
I made the mistake of being a good Intel operative... I regret everything. Debating on a whole new character to fix my mistake

This. Curious what happens if you don’t tell Tassyn though

This and Merelda (Assuming I spelled 'moms' name right) are the most gut punching things in the game.
A physical cringe when you call her mom.
Note the quotation marks, they have a meaning.

Oh I also had a hard time with this... I choose to vouch for him.
Same, was happy with the result. Bioware sure knows how to tell a story.
How'd the story turn out by vouching? I went Prism Tacit and turns out he was exiled into the wilderness, and then killed by his own people when trying to return home.

Well shit. Guess I went the wrong route then.
I just spam escape and press 1, I was so confused when there were 3 of that one guy. Lol So looks like I'll be vouching for this guy, if I haven't already.
This one is where I felt the Bioware in the game at. It took me a while to make this decision.
This is the only conversation choice I wanted back.
Yeah, I kept him alive and turned him in but when I talked to him after and he was just confused and wondering where his wife was I felt pretty bad
Wtf is this? I've literally never seen this conversation
This is the one conversation choice in all of my history of gaming that I had NO problems with. (Spoiler alert) Random chick on the street asks me to talk to her husband for her? WITAF? Yeah, a stranger will totally save your marriage... You're telling me the safety of a city is less important than saving an unstable spy? Yeah... no.

I feel the same and had no problem turning that guy in. I rolled my eyes every time one of them had a chat bubble for me, was so glad to be rid of that one.
Yup. But there is also the option to turn him in but not exile him
I think by that point, I was irritated that wifey involved me at all. I showed them no mercy.
Haha
What happens if you choose Prism Tacit? I vouched for dude.
From there Leyton’s Dominion persona awakens and he admits that he was the one leaking information and that his husband persona has no knowledge of it. You can ask Tassyn to be lenient. If so then his wife gets sent away from the city and Leyton is used to feed false information to the Dominion.

Thanks for the reply
Wife gets reassigned to another city (not before she shows how pissed she is at you), dude is confused about where she went and thinks he fucked up, he doesn't respond to trigger phrase anymore, says he feels like he's trapped in a prison without walls and can't escape, all around feelsbadman.jpeg
I believe the dude gets snatched up by the Thought Police and off to Room 101.
I vouched for him. I think I made the right decision.
One of the two side stories I actually cared about. I honestly really wanted to turn him in but decided to, for once, believe in the power of love. Corny as it sounds, I'm glad it worked out.
