To repeat myself, your way of roleplaying is more like metagaming to me.
I can understand this perception, but aren't we all metagaming in the consequent runs? It is hard for me to pretend that I don't know what's coming, when I do. In a custom run a huge chunk of endings for origin companions is immediately spoiled. Can you please share your idea of role-playing, that is not metagaming? So that we have an anchoring point for further discussion.
