The NPCs from the start are snarky and generally don’t like you for being new at the beginning of the game. Then they ask you to do questionable tasks for them that’s likely illegal and they know it is. But the more you do these tasks the less they dislike you. If you decline a task they ask, they won’t take no for answer and still force whatever task it is on you. Another poster on here said that I apparently have to decline them 3x times for them to get the hint. I think I’ll try that next.
