    I'm writing a fanfiction on my blog about this. Usually it's quite easy to use on strangers that she may not see again and doesn't care about and may be suspicious of. However, once the strangeness and suspicion fades using the echo become impossible. This is not official of course, but it explains why she doesn't use the Echo on every NPC (such as Louisoux) who claims to have all the answers to everything.

    Having an official answer on this would be nice. But... plot holes are easy to spot when someone else is reading your work. So I don't expect to get an answer.

    Thanks for the reply ^^

    But.. I do hope you're wrong on this quoted bit. That is, given the entire nature of the Echo, it was laudable that the writers picked up on and highlighted this in the first place. The moral questions won't go away just because they remove mention of them after all, and I.. well, for my part at least I can't think of another way the original main scenario could be modified to deal with this.

    Far better for Raya-O' to really, really come down on the PC hard for doing that.

    Still, that said, another way to look at it is that 'Disorganised Crime' is a quest that will be removed with v2.0 (probably), so at least the issue likely won't be sticking around.

    And.. well, thanks and all ^^ Good thoughts, too..

    You are both right, I kind of don't expect an official response - as much as I'd absolutely love one - but I still had to ask if only to make it stop nagging at me >.>
