    I absolutely love the fact that "passive checks" exist. Because it is not only interesting dialogue that they give you, sometimes it is advice. I'm pretty sure it's either perception or reaction speed that warns you about the hook. It makes you pay attention to his stance, and what his plan is, it tells you he expects the right hook.
    Yeah, I know, sometimes Authority may make you do the stupidest things imaginable, but I really love the small little details this game gives you.

      It also gives you a completely different outlook on the vibe and meaning of a scene - talking authority again, everything becomes a power struggle where you have to dominate the ozher person.
      Or with drama, you will notice several other characters faking their emotions which gives them a whole new meaning

    This happened to me, I passed the check but chose right hook, got fucked up. Tried to fight again, failed check. Tried aagain, failed check. It let's you do it like 3 times in a row. Finally I was at one health bar. So I went the other way where you jump down from Cuno's hideout. But I failed that check like 4 times. Finally I went back and passed this one again. This time I kicked. I went in to the harbor but it was midnight and Evrart was out for the night.
