Yes, the snake killed the child but by not stopping the snake it felt like I killed the child because I was given options that had the potential to save the child.
You have to change your mindset about social interactions I think.
My observation is that failing a check generally lead's to the default outcome, but passing a check gives you a chance to bypass it.
That means you have a slim chance at saving the kid, but the default is that Kagha kills her.
I think the scene is amazing, even if the kid dies, it shows the desperation both sides have. And we can have our revenge on Kagha many ways if we want.
I doubt many people return this game because of this scene, it's a tough scene, but most people who buys an "Mature" game expects to get tough content
