Red-framed items

[Eol]

There are some items with red frames, usually some books or notes. And others are white-bordered. And not always they have some quuest value at all. Same applies for jewelry.

red?
Orange - quest item, even if the quest is done or not available to you.
Magical items comes in green, blue and purple
every other item has pale gray/no border.

Could you give an example of a red one? or even a screenshot

also. some quest items do not have an orange border.

some "quest items" that do have an orange border do nothing and are not needed for any quest.

They're related to quests - but it's almost useless

They keep their border even when the quest is no longer available and there are items related to quests that don't have it

My idea - Exploration option

Either no tips on items for quests or all items involved in quests are highlighted

Yeah, looks like they are orange, I am a bit colorblind :)
Seems like quuest items, but not all quest items have this orange border, and not all one that do have it are needed. I dont know what is reason behind this border.

Most likely mismanaged development and inconsistency with quest items being low priority in the workload.

For one, orange items do not show up when you trade. They appear to be quest items, but you may not always have the related quest and they seem to remain quest items even if you no longer need them, but the game does not seem to explain the concept explicitly.

There may be some obscure reason why some quest items have no orange borders. Perhaps they are not essential to finish the related quest, which means you are free to sell/lose/destroy them as you please?

The only Red I see is when there's something laying around that would be "stealing" it, like, someones going to say something about it.

Yeah OP said they were colorblind, they meant orange items in your inventory.
