Just lost two mist elven rangers in outlaw village trying to give money to beggars. The game just stopped responding in windows without giving any crash log or anything.
Yes. Correct, that is the same problem. I would give it higher priority than 5 though. Causes a lot of frustration for people who don't know to avoid beggars.
You can still talk to them, just make a backup save before in case they give you a rumour instead of booze. I also backup every few levels around D:5 - D:15 just because I read a number of people having crashed around that area.
