  2. [uniqueness] Add a sentence contrasting this game's detective-first approach to choices: 'Unlike traditional CRPGs, your power to read emotions lets you uncover hidden motives before confrontation, leading to non-combat resolutions unavailable to others.'
  3. [feature_communication] Clarify the social manipulation system with one concrete example—e.g., 'Use your emotion-reading to exploit a character's pride or fear, swaying them without combat or revealing secrets to allies.'
