In jail, there is no choice, Robocop says "Let the prisoner go"

[Jazman2k]

In the jail mission where guard and prisoner are talking, robocop intervenes and tells guard to let prisoner go and then prisoner starts running and shoots the guard. There is no choice? Should there be one? Seems like a bug to me.

Have triple checked this. You cannot, at present, stop the cunning prisoner. The dialogue skips to RoboCop simply letting him go, and a prison guard dying.

There is supposed to be an option if your psychology score is high enough, but after thorough testing, with maxed psychology, this just skips over those options.

Psychology dialogue throughout the game itself seems bugged. See bug reports on Ben's Garage and the Graffiti Artist for further reference to psychology bugged quests / dialogue.

Oh yeah, I forgot about the psychology skill completely. I don't usually spend any points to that. Since I want to be a walking tank of destruction...

I actually stopped playing at this point, hoping they'll fix this soon. I feel like there should be at least two options even if neither of them are that good (Let him go and just shoot him?).
I've got 6 in psychology and 6 in deduction, and someone mentioned in another thread you need a 5 in deduction (but not more?) either way, this particular mission seems bugged and I'd really like to be able to resolve it.

It's not only that part. All skill checks during the prison riot seem to be broken. I also couldn't tell Maurice that he doesn't have to do laundry during a riot or tell Jerry that his agent is on the phone.

I had this same problem and my psychology score was quite high (I had it high enough to highlight empathetic choices). It might be the same reason why the dialogue was missing in a different scene for me in the police station between Robocop and Ortiz.

There is a choice...I've got deduction at 10 so not sure what you need it at, but was able to save the guard
