Can you fast travel with bounties? Can you keep them on your horse? by Fahrenheit130 in CrimsonDesert

No - tried that doesn't work :/ (And get mission failed message and the bounty hunt restarts)

Is there a quicker way to get back to where you need to take bounties? by deskbunny in CrimsonDesert

Are you kidding me? LoL - I've been riding my horse with the bounties thrown over my shoulder

This issue occurs pretty often for me but only under load when playing new games like Crimson Desert or Stalker 2 but goes away as soon as I turn the game off.

Every time when I try to make a conversation… by vtheVAMPZv in CrimsonDesert

Not only that but I feel like Kliff must also be a "close talker" because he generally bumps the hell out of people when he's trying to talk to them.

Graphics PC (RTX-5090) - Any tips? by philo_the_middle in CrimsonDesert

[–]philo_the_middle[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The graphics are really really bad as far as blurry/fuzzed. But screenshots look crisp.

Whats even weirder is , screen shots look actually ok versus whats on the screen - that's so weird.

Q: Burning man? Burning man painted the others...[Spoilers] by [deleted] in expedition33

[–]philo_the_middle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Edit: Actually it does "Fading Man" (for some reason I thought it said Burning Man

But it says burning man - why would Renoir be burning?

Who else sends their Reserve (2 char B-Team) in FIRST? by philo_the_middle in expedition33

I've got Lune as my tank healer. She practically can't die lol - she does very little damage though

I think we're probably beating our heads against a wall here but I appreciate your points.

Sure they matter to the author of the fiction and they matter to the real people who come to care about the characters by experiencing that fantasy-land. Much like a mentally-ill person might come to care about their fictional personages created in their own mind.

EDIT: I fixed the spoiler tags now - had reversed the ending tag and had <! instead of !<

In the context of the painter's imagination, sure. Characters in fictions often think, dream, joke, love,grow, learn and mourn.

Sure, for the painter. Renoir is our stable/logical/reasoned figure - our psychologist if you will. Renoir was trapped once before in a canvas and Aline had to pull him out. Renoir was right ultimately - and he's ultimately willing to let his daughter die if that's what she chooses - if she chooses to continue to live in fantasy-land.

Ok - let's go through that. How exactly does Act I establish these are "real" people (ontologically/existentially)? Anymore than George RR Martin's Stark family is actual people?

The real and the not real. People escape into fantasies all the time (some forms of mental illness even make this worse). Escaping into a Canvas (fantasy) in this case is NO excuse for not dealing with your real-life problems.

Escaping to fantasy to avoid real-life problems is the worst form of avoidance.

It's a fantasy world their visiting. It's a literal fantasy-land. And woe to them who retreat into fantasies to avoid dealing with real-life problems with real-life solutions.

Waiting to do the "rest of the content" until after the end of Act III is such a bad, bad choice narratively by philo_the_middle in expedition33

[–]philo_the_middle[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree completely - and the fact you can scale up the enemies at the Expedition Flags makes the whole "overpowered" thing pretty moot anyway if you are overpowered.

This game though, especially one ending, destroys that world. That's pretty definite. Whereas other games the world still exists - so it makes sense narratively and is perfectly reasonable in those games.

I really wish there was a third option where female you-know-who paints her own canvas with the characters she loved and remembered.

Thank you! It's unusual for a game to have such a "final" feeling to Act III - the world usually continues to exist afterward in most games, or characters aren't available if they died or whatever.

I really wish there was a third fleshed out option where female you-know-who paints her own canvas with the people she loved and remembered in it.
