What to study

John Cooper's turn at the wheel: the revolver sits highlighted with a full 5/5 cylinder, the bandage, bag, and two bottles filling out his kit, and all five gang portraits show in the RB ring with Cooper active. The red canyon map is the warmest of the set, and the purple vision cone sweeping in from the bottom right with Cooper outlined in red shows the stealth readout doing its work, a guard's sightline made visible as geometry. The yellow bush marks a hiding spot, so the frame carries the game's core loop in one image: see the cone, use the bush, spend the bullets. Frame at about 328.5 s in the Desperados III Explanation trailer (Steam). No trailer burn-in.
