Plucked fruit is bad quest

[jojobe]

for a quest that suppose to be simple you cant find them innocent. Found the friut found the red twigs found a sword. I know what rongi makes baskets and wants to blame him. but i cant prove it. the villagers say rongi he goes to the beach at night. its rongi but the only option i got is to blame the other guy tamuru.

I also didn't like this quest. They keep bringing up planting the seeds yet offer no solution involving that. You just return the fruit and sentence one to death (which seems to happen off screen).

It annoyed me greatly.

If you go to the beach at midnight you catch him and then can blame him for it.

No what the op is asking is if there was an option to plant the fruit raher than give it to the chief. I would love for that scenario to occur as well but we can't have everything.

[UR|wRÅR]

No, the OP doesn't ask that.

Maybe it's just me, but there seems to be a lot of bad quests in the game as far as moral choices go. Like in this quest, you can blame the dude who didn't do it, just because he's a jack*** who no one likes, for good reason. Or you can blame the guy who actually did it even though he did it for a possibly just reason.

There does not seem to be any way in most quests to be the good guy. For instance, the quest in the gullet, where I was hoping to find Botaro alive and save him from the pit. But nope, he's dead and the best thing I could do was to get Biha and 2 of her kids passage, while she had to send 2 of her kids away, probably to never see them again.

Then there was the time I ran into a little girl in an alleyway somewhere and she was being attacked by some critters. So I distract them and saved her right? Nope, she's dead anyway. The game is sort of dark like that.

You can make some room on the ship by murdering the other passenger.

Lol, just another example of what I'm talking about. There really are not many moral choices in the game. You're supposed to be immoral I suppose, you just get to choose how. And the gods are nagging harpies who constantly threaten you if they can't boss you around. Outside of that, I'm enjoying the game.

With Biha and the Kids, you can talk to the paladins who purchased a spot on their ship and convince them to take another ship (either convince them there was a problem with their last job, or pay them to take another ship), then the captain will take Biha and all the kids. You don't have to kill anyone for that quest.

For the plucked fruit quest: yeah, it would have been nice if you could plant the fruit, or if I could have donated the 30+ Kioki fruit (or 800+ hardtack) I had been carrying around to the tribe and let the dry ones stay at the beach. But this quest was all about do you blame the guilty good guy or the innocent bad guy. I guess the devs can't code every option for every quest, can they?

Yeah seriously. The guard complains about starving, and you can offer replacement fruit. He immediately declines and retorts that it's besides the point.

I love this game, but that quest is idiotic at every level.

if you have a bout a 1000 gold and diplomacy if you talk to orran up stairs he will find another way off the island... then all of them can leave.

This quest I allowed Rongi to keep his seeds and made the cops release Tamuru. You have to pledge your silence and get the dried fruit to the cop and tell him that you found it on the beach without really implicating anyone. The cop dude gives up and goes "fk this ♥♥♥♥, I got my fruit" and stop caring.

You can't save the dude but you can arrange to have all the kids get passage on the ship. Couple of extra steps and it's a bit harder. A lot of quests in the game the "best" outcome is the hardest one to achieve.

No need. Just abuse his OCD and he'll walk away willingly.
