Ashley in ME1 was coming on full speed ahead for one, and there were others. you could easily cut yourself off from dialogs with other NPCs.


Dragon Age was another game I remember getting into some "uncomfortable" dialogs with players as well..."Hey watch where your pointing that sword!".


It would be quite good fun to toggle it the other way too, so that the only NPC's and Characters you could encounter would those who were "up for it", "if you played your cards right". What confidence one would have, striding through the game, all the time knowing that you were able to get off with any humanoid or creature you met! You could sleep your way to the top!
