It bothered me that Gaetan offers a reward if you spare him, and more-so that Geralt accepts it. I don't know the lore of Witchers or w/e code they live by, but my understanding is that Geralt doesn't accept undeserved praise or rewards as a general principle. Sparing Gaetan was simply a decision Geralt makes to not be his judge in the matter, not some favor or job for which he should be rewarded. Likewise, I don't understand why Gaetan would be rewarding him for making that decision--granted, he doesn't give him a reward directly rather than allowing him to take one, so in a sense it leaves the choice to Geralt, but it's treated oddly with Geralt explicitly thanking him. Maybe I'm missing something, but it felt out of character.
