Ethos vs. Pathos vs. Logos
Without too many spoilers, for people wondering what to take:

Just take Logos to start wtih. You can get Pathos at the start of act 2 by going back to talk to someone at the Senate.

Don't take Ethos. 20 hours of gameplay and I've seen one - A SINGLE ONE - Ethos option, and nearly 20 Logos ones. A bunch of Pathos ones too but Logos keeps coming up again and again and again.

I went the opposite way, Pathos and then Logos. Pathos gets you two unique items (One without outright murdering an innocent, so I like that).

Ethos shows up at certain junctures, but might play a part more in the second act. Otherwise yeah.

I'm now almost in act 3 and there's been four - count 'em, *four* - Ethos choices; about the same you have 5 hours into the game with Logos, lmao.

Doesn't really matter if you go Logos-Pathos or Pathos-Logos, just don't do what I did and take Ethos, it blows.

Logos is the best, not sure about secondary option though

Why? I heard you need Ethos to not kill your own people in Egypt.

I've seen an Ethos choice(not killing a guard in Pontus scouts camp ) otherwise you kill him or pay 1000 denari to dissapear.

Thanks for the help. So i would be safe to take Logos and Pathos.

If it's what I'm thinking, then there is another option - scatter Egyptians instead. I went with Ethos option to avoid bloodshed.

You would think Pathos would be given the most options, as a scheming roman noblemen who has ambitions to be consul one day, would be a popular choice to roleplay.

What do you mean scatter the Egyptians? It will mess my romance with Cleo ?
