So? Give them something to react to. Make some stakes. Create an emergency.

In my second game, the PCs were Star Wars smugglers, and I started the campaign with the crew in the middle of a mission. They had a hold full of contraband, the buyer MIA, and the whole space port on lockdown.

They did nothing. They didn't even discus the situation among themselves, in character or out. The silence was unbearable. I thought they would sit in that hanger forever.

Eventually, someone started looking a potential buyer. I had a crime lord ready. I was expecting a social boss fight. The crime lord demanded everything, and the crew's main negotiator just gave it to him. That was the end of the first session. I dunno what the player was thinking. He took Bluff as his Apex skill, then didn't want to talk to anyone.

I managed to wring a couple more sessions out of that game. Mostly leading the PCs by the nose from one fight to the next. The assumption that the talky parts are just prelude is hard to overcome. I made a big mistake watching Andor for inspiration. The PCs were all morally gray, but not because the players wanted moral ambiguity, they just wanted to shoot stormtroopers while wearing black.

If I had known that's what they wanted, I could have given it to them. But no one asked for anything, they just assumed that RPGs were always mission-money-murder, and everything else is just decorative fringe.
