*nods*

[Gula]

*clenches fist*
*covers eye*
*touches scar*

also I actually find NPCs making fun of our constant nodding pretty insulting, considering we have no say in acting that way 90% of the time.
"dude, look at us taking jabs at the characterisation you've been railroaded into, lmao"

Outside of the Sims, no game really lets you do everything you want so the story can be written with a specific identity in mind. Everything outside of that is your call. Back when I tried miqo'te, I preferred to imagine when something's being explained, they were just singing nyannyannyannyan.
