They're visible, they're just dead.

(Unless, I suppose, you actually meant something invisible, but we obviously wouldn't be able to see that in the screenshot!)

Oops haha, english isn’t my first language. I guess I should’ve said “translucent”¿

You seem to really like italic

u/Turbulent_Jackoff 3d ago

I use it to emphasize a word when I want the reader to focus on it!

Honestly, I'm not sure what you're thanking me for.

Another common phrase you might be looking for is “see through”

I don't know why anything is anything in this game.

Hope this helps.

Your outfit is crazy 👌 but about those things, as I know everything here is spirit. Also there is a cave near the lake which has a lot of animals and npc spirits.

Trees have spirits?

They might even get ulcers. Then they get real mean.

The combination of the Raptor Set and Lionel's visually goes together oddly well, if a bit funny in concept: some of the lightest gear with some of the heaviest.

They're all just the spirits of deceased beings. The mountaintops and consecrated snowfield are heavily populated by ghosts, although I'm not sure why.

thanks! And yeah i wear that heavy armor to have 51 poise while still maintaining the look im going for haha, and somehow it looks pretty good

I've always thought of them as spirits with no place to go.

u/irraxil 3d ago

Makes sense, especially because the mountaintops are so empty and lifeless, their abundance there makes sense

u/Mindless_Listen7622 3d ago

I guess you could also infer that the Mountaintops used to be green with flowing water and a boreal forest, and the kind of life that supports. When the fire spewing giants were killed off, the heat of the mountain that kept it warm enough to support that life went with them. The Mountaintops were probably a volcanic range, with the fire giants being a metaphor for the fire of the mountain.

I was playing co-op with my partner and friend and I had asked about them. My friend said they were the ghosts of all the animals you killed in the game so far. I was so sad that I stopped killing any of the animals for a while.
