* Then there's the three witches quest in Uzhitz, [[spoiler: who are just grieving women who do demonic rituals to process their grief. This being a realistic world, the rituals amount to getting high in the woods and harmless chanting. They get caught by Henry during one such ritual, but Henry also gets stoned out of his mind, since the women touch his skin with hands being smeared with hallucinogenic ointment. Then the demons appear. However, these are not actually demons, but woodcutters trying to interrupt what they perceive as Satan worship. Henry either defeats the "demons", waking up from his MushroomSamba to the sight of slaughtered woodcutters, or doesn't, waking up from his MushroomSamba to the sight of slaughtered women. There is no way this quest ends without innocent people dying because of superstitious beliefs.[[FailureIsTheOnlyOption The only way to win the quest is not to do it.]] ]]

Added DiffLines:

* Go out in the woods at night. The game presents a very realistic representation of night time, averting the HollywoodDarkness trope. Which means that when you're out in the woods without a torch, you can't see jack shit and it is very likely you'll be surprised by a sudden bandit/Cuman attack.
