Two things...

[yupper]

I am a stickler for little details, especially when it comes to "immersion" stuff....

 

1) Making use of the services of prostitutes at the Salty Mast should constitute resting...uh, "resting" I mean. They say you are paying for "the night", so it would seem logical that time should pass equivalent to staying at an inn.

 

2) Prisoners should be stripped of equipment when taken...prisoner. It would rather ridiculous that if I was going to jail tomorrow, that I could bring my AR-15 and ballistic body armour with me to my cell. No wonder these prisoners escape. Players who take prisoners should not be punished by being deprived of the loot being carried by the prisoners. It...doesn't make sense. 

 

Thanks.

I'm very close to finishing the game and I had 1 (literally ONE) character that I could send to Caed Nua dungeon.

 

Wut?

[PrimeJunta]

There are several. I've locked up... I dunno, three or four at least. Not all in the same game though.

There's a total of 7 or so NPCs you can incarcerate:

Huh. Seems like the dungeon will be the very last upgrade to my stronghold then, just for completion's sake.

Prostitutes and Dungeons... wasn't that the plot of the Hostile horror flicks? And am I the only one who noticed that the OP implied that sleeping alone is just as restful as sleeping with a prostitute?

 

Anywho, I built my dungeon fairly quickly because I was curious to see if I could capture all those bandits that regularly invade. I was wrong on that obviously, but during my very first Bounty task I captured a prisoner. And this is all in the early game (group levels are 5-6).

I didn't "imply" anything. I am quoting directly from the game. Maei says Serel costs 1000/500 (pending the sidequest) "for the night." If you are paying the room "for the night" presumably you are doing more than just having a quick romp. So if that's the case there is resting involved (and time should pass, and the party should heal). I don't know what you think the other party members would be doing during that time since Serel also says she charges extra for additional participants to the romp (of course we can't do that...this is a CRPG, not porn). Since the upstairs of the Salty Mast is basically a common room, I would imagine that's where the party would rest "for the night" while your character is snoring on a luxurious bed. I don't see how it would be different from resting in the common room at the Blackhound Inn, except maybe it's more luxurious and less noisy. You know what a "common room" means, right? If you think sleeping with a woman on a bed with pillows and cushions makes you less "restful" than sleeping in a common room....

Sir, you are in fact implying that the "romp" is "quick." I figured my subtle hint would have been enough but now you're defending the point. Then again, I suppose there was no Viagra back then so maybe you're on to something, if we're talking about a character over the age of 50...

 

Elderly aside, and I hate to break this to ya, but there is such a thing as "all nighters." Especially when you've been out hunting dragons all day

Careful, whippersnapper, there are those of us that get along just fine without that little blue pill, thank you very much.

1) I don't know what you mean by "all nighters" and didn't see anyone say that. When you put things into quotes ("..."), it's should be because someone said it. 

 

2) I don't know what you are trying to "imply" in the last remark but it seems contradictory. On the one hand, you say that not all "romps" are "quick" (Ok. But I don't see how that is relevant). On the other hand, you say "there is no such a thing as all nighters." So...if you don't feel your character would ever have a "quick romp", but also won't do "all nighters", then logically, it means the character has sex then rests--pretty much what I am saying. Otherwise, I don't know what you think your character will do for the entirety of 8 hours that passes when someone spends a night at an inn in this game. In any event, it's still irrelevant, because the rest of your party would be technically resting.

 

I am not "implying" anything. I am sorry if you are having difficulty understanding one of my points--which is that if you spend "the night" with Serel (this is a direct quote from Maei's dialogue) at the the Salty Mast (or any of the prostitutes there), it should be treated as resting at an inn in terms of game mechanics (time should pass, and per rest spells/abilities should reset). We probably shouldn't get any more perks than that on top of the perks that we already get from sexing the prostitutes (so equivalent to sharing a common room with all the riffraffs at an inn) because then, no one would bother resting at the inns.

I never said "there is no such a thing as all nighters." You misquoted me and then typed up a lot over something I didn't actually say.

 

 

 

but there is such a thing as "all nighters."

 

See?

 

Anyway, I have hit my yearly count for "discussing prostitutes in an RPG." If you think that the phrase "spend the night with a prostitute" literally translates to a "quick romp followed by a restful sleepover," then more power to ya buddy lol

There should be a status debuff for "poorly rested."
