Assassin’s Creed: The Plague Doctor Dilemma

====================================================================

In the world of Assassin’s Creed, players are often faced with difficult choices that can have far-reaching consequences on their in-game experiences. One such choice is encountered early during your journey through Kephallonia as protagonist Alexios or his sister Kassandra (depending on your preferred playstyle) in Assassin's Creed Odyssey.

The Blood Fever quest presents a particularly harrowing decision: should you choose to kill the plague-infected family, or attempt to save them? In this article, we'll delve into both options and explore what consequences each choice may bring upon your character's story arc within the richly detailed world of Ancient Greece as seen through Ubisoft’s critically acclaimed open-world adventure.

The Choice: Kill vs. Save

------------------------------

Upon discovering the plague-infected family, you're presented with a stark decision that will forever alter the course of their lives - and possibly yours too! Here are some key points to consider before making your choice:

### Option 1: Killing the Family

- Immediate Benefits: Choosing this option allows you to progress through the main storyline more quickly without any immediate negative effects on your character's stats or relationships with other NPCs (non-playable characters) in close proximity.

However, be aware that taking out innocent lives can lead to long-term consequences down the line...

### Option 2: Saving the Family

- Long-Term Benefits: By choosing this route instead of simply dispatching them all willy-nilly like common bandits or marauders without any remorse whatsoever first; you'll gain +10 friendship points with each member whom still lives past today morning light when next seen again later on down road perhaps even unlocking special perks too!

The Verdict: Should You Kill or Save?

Ultimately, the choice to kill or save the plague-infected family in Assassin's Creed Odyssey comes down to personal preference and playstyle. Both options have their own unique benefits and drawbacks that can impact your overall experience within this vast open world filled with historical accuracy mixed together with plenty of creative liberties taken for good old fashioned fun!

So, what will you choose? Will you opt for the quick fix by taking out these diseased souls once and for all - no matter how morally reprehensible it may seem at first glance? Or perhaps there's still hope left in humanity somewhere deep within yourself waiting to be unlocked through compassion alone?

Only time (and your own personal values) will tell!
