lol, that was why I asked if you need translation!
well, you do have to talk to people to finish certain quest
example: the circus
after you free the tent from illusion, you need to talk to the gaurd for exp and rep, right? you can do it twice. yes, to get two points of rep, if you are playing a six-pc game, you can get 6 point of rep out that single quest
that is a bug
I suggest you and your brother read all little side note and enjoy the game really as it is. dont hush through, read the dialog, some of the NPCs are treacherous, it feels good if you can find those who plot against you.
godd luck
