I’m now also wondering whether releasing the brake and sending poor Barcus flying breaks oaths. That at least makes sense!
Other than meta information, do we know in the game that this would be this effect? Not just an accident trying to save him?
Good point. In fact, the only time I ever did it was very early when I clicked the wrong lever, not realising there were two. I felt awful. I guess it’s not clear just from the text “release brake” what is going to happen.
