You can buy them a drink and they will not fight with you. Btw aren't you complaining a bit extreme? You must really hate JRPG's =p.

How? I talked to all of them, just a standard reply, come to pappy and I'll rip off your melon and shit down your neck.
I talked to the bartender, only the standard conversation options, shop and how's life.
Then it's a cut scene when I talk to Vasemir and either converstion option leads to an automatic fight to the death with the locals, labeled bandits.
The doors are suddenly locked, I can't even drop my sword, just stand there and wait for the cut scene or speed it along.
300xp and Yen shows up, oh well just slaugthered half the locals let's go.
I don't mind playing a total bastard from time to time, yet the game presents itself like I can be nice and can make a difference. I've declined all rewards so far and always try to mediate for positive outcomes. Yet next to that it also presents these opportunities to then completely ignore all your attempts to do something about it, and now makes me slaughter half the locals. That's a failure for a RPG for me. It won't let me play the role it was fine letting me play during the side quests.
JRPGs are fine, the characters I play there don't suffer from split personality disorder.
Btw I'm only complaining because I'm invested in the world and characters. I also bought Andrzej Sapkowski's Time of contempt, Blood of elves and Baptism of fire as I'm curious now what the inspiration was behind the game. Plus maybe it will make clear who this Witcher is supposed to be :)

hmm well I am not sure what point exactly in the game you talk about. I just got an option to offer them drinks. Maybe because I invested in that mind skill?
